Special January Clearing Sale of Girls’ Winter Clothing. For tomorrow’s selling we have made some most extraordinary price reductions in Girls’ Winter Overgarments. They are all new, this season’s best-and most popular styles—not a garment in the lot that is not strictly first-class in every particular. This is by far the best bargain im regular stock that we have ever offered. And when it is considered that these goods are all of an especially high character and were originally marked at a-smaller profit than for several seasons past, the importance of the sale will be the better ap- oreciated. ea All-wool Reefer Jackets, this season's best | Girls’ Winter Gretcbens, all new and destrable sles aml most por elo sizes . | cloths, made in the most stylish shapes for the styles amd most $1 Com All sizes (4 to 14). . po ise Gee -95zacu. 85 BACH.

The sweeping answer-of the British fur seal commissioners to the charge of injury done to the Alaskan far seal herd by pe- lagic sealing, has stirred up a number of gentlemen who are more or “less familiar with the question. A Star reporter this morn'ng saw Mr. Henty W. Elliott, who has had a great deal of personal exper- lence with the question, and who expressed himeelf as follows: “The recent London cable purporting to be the views of the British seal commis- stoners who went up, with an American, to the Seal Islands of Alaska last summer, was a great surprise to the Treasury and State Department people. The American agents, headed by Dr. David Starr Jordan, were very emphatic in assuring their friends that they bad at last secured an unqualified agreement with the British agents in favor of suppressing pelagic fur sealing; and that when these English offi- cers were heard from their reports would so bear them out. Faith Badly Pinced. “Therefore, the London cable giving di- rectly the views of one of the two British agents, shows that the faith of the Ameri- can commissioners has been badly placed. The English report fairly adds impertin- ence to injury; it declares that the seals instead of being tnjured on the Pribilof Is- lands are actually increasing! and, in short, is so radicaily opposed to the find- ing of Dr. Jordan and his associates that it reflects on their common sense. “When the Dingley seal bill, which was devised by Mr. Dingley two years ago, to prevent the continuation of this indecent and wasteful loss of seal life on the Prib- lof Islands (and which was passed by the Hiouse in 1895, and again in 1806, by a unanimous vote), was before the Senate foreign relations committee last February Mr. Sherman said that he wanted to try the good sense and generosity of Great Britain just once more before passing such a drastic bill. Tried It for Nine Years. “Mr. Frye reminded him that this had been tried without the least result for bet- terment, for nine long consecutive years, and he for one was not willing to continue the shamefu! exhibition of seal butchery in Alaskan waters; that nothing would come of further negotiation unless we stepped in, and declared our intention to take the seals ourselves, end their misery, by decently killing them on the islands, rather than to let them be indecently killed in the water, thereby» annually entailing the starvation of tens of thousands of helpless young seals on the islands (their mothers slaught- ered at sea). _ “The committee sustained Mr. Frye by a Practically unanimous vote; the Dingley bili was made a special order for March 16th last, and then Mr.;Olney stepped in, and requested that the:measure be held up for the present, sayingithat he was suc- cessfully negotiating .with Great Britain for a revision of the -eruel Paris regula- tions, and the passage of the Dingley bill at that time would greatly embarrass, if not defeat, these negotiations. “Mr. Frye had no alternative. Mr. Olney assumed the responsibility, and now is en- titled to the reward of making an utter failure to secure any tangible respite for the unhappy seals. ; Canadians for ‘Business. “The Canadians are not fools, they are in this thing for politics,and for business; under existing rules, they can get more seals than we can, béciuse they can take female seals, and we cannot. “As long as the Canadfan has'this advan- tage of us, he ts not going to let it Hp from ‘his grasp. He will permit ‘any: nutn- ber of commissions to go up and talk the subject over; he does not care how we talk, so long as we talk and remonstrate in words; until we take action by passing the Dingley bill, he will continue to indecently kill our seals, and mock at our protests.” CARBINE, RIFLE AND REVOLVER. Result of the Firing Published by the War Department. The War Department has just published the results of the rifle, carbine and revolver firing of all the troops of the,army during the past year. The table shows that the leading departments at the various ranges were as follows: Two hundred yards, with rifles, Department of Missouri; with car- bines, Department of the Platte. . Three hundred yards, rifles, Department ef Columbia; with carbines, Department of the Platte. Five hundred yards, riflés, Department of Columbia; carbtties, Department of Texas. Six hundred yards, rifles, Department of Columbia; carbines, Department of Colum- bia. Eight hundred yards, rifles, Department of Columbia; with carbines, Department of the Platte. One thousand yards, rifles, Department of the Platte; with carbines, Department of the Platte. As skirmishers, with rifles, Department of the Platte; with carbines, Department of the Platte. In volley practice at 800 to 1,000 yards, the Department of Texas ‘led, with the highest percentage of hits with the rifle, and the Department of the Platte with the carbine. Curiously enough the latter’s car- bine score was higher than the former's rifle score at these long ranges. Of all the cavalry regiments the 8th stood first at every range from 200 to 1,000 yards, and as skirmishers. The infantry regiments divided honors. At 200 and 300 yards the 4th stood first; at 500 yards the lith led; at 600 yards the 16th; at $00 yards the 17th; at 1,000 yards the 7th, and as skirmishers the 22d Infan- try led. Im revolver shooting the 7th Cav- alry took the palm. - Tucker Keeps His Seat. The House yesterday decided the con- tested, election case of Yost agt. Tucker, from the tenth Virginia’ district, by deny- ing the seat to Mr. Yost and confirming Mr. “Tucker’s title ‘théreto.
