Prof. Stejneger Says That It Would Probably Be More Injurious Than Beneficial, and Gives Reason: Dr. Leonhard Stejneger of the National Museum, who was one of the commission- ers to the Russian fur seal islands the past summer, has made his réport. It contains much of interest regarding his observations on the islands. In reply to the question, “Is a tem- porary stoppage of killing on land advisa- dle?” Dr. Stejneger says: * “The propriety of prohibiting the killing of fur seals on land for a period of five years, as a means of building up the seal herd, has of late been discussed by the Russian authorities. The success in for- mer years of such a cessation of killing on land, or ‘zapuska,’ as it is called, as well as its advantage in the management of the fox and sea otter hunt, has undoubtedly influenced them; but they have plainly failed to see the difference between those old zapuskas, which protected the females as well as the males, and the zapuska of the present, the employment of which would only mean the protection of the males alone when on land. When at sea, they would be subjected to the same dan- ger from the pelagic hunter as the females. It shows that they have utterly failed to grasp the two essential points of the seal question as it stands today, that the de- cline of the seal herd is solely due to pelagic sealing, and that the increase and consequent rehabilitation of the herd de- pends solely upon the preservation of the female seals. If pelagic sealing be stopped, no zapuska is necessary, or, as I shall show, it will be directly — hurtful. If pelagic sealing be tontinued, a za- puska will not only not protect the herd on shore, but it will directly result in in- creased catches for the pelagic sealers as long as the zapuska lasts, since they will have the additional males to prey upon which will have been spared on land. Overstocking of Males. jow, the future prosperity of the seal herd depends upon the number of females it contains; the number of bachelors is irrelevant in this connection. Suppose pe- lagic sealing be suppressed and a five years’ zapuska instituted on the Com- mander Islands. What would result? At the end of the five years there would be exactly as many females as if no zapuska had been, not one more, possibly some less, because no female seals would have been killed even if the zapuska had not been kept. But there certainly would be a great many more Rillable seals at the be- ginning of the sixth year than during any one of the preceding years. A little re- flection, however, will show that their total number must be less than the total sum of kiled ones during these preceding years, inasmuch as the two to four-year- old bachelors of these years would have escaped the killing and become sikatchi— that is, available rookery bulls, and conse- quently unfit for killing during the za- puska. And how would it look on the rookeries? Copper Island is already over- stocked with bulls to such an extent that it would greatly benefit the herd to deci- mate them now; with a five years’ za. puska the conditions would be infinite worse. On Bering Island there is no over- stocking of males now, but there fs noth- ing to indicate that there are not enough bulls, and five years’ prohibition would bring about the same deplorable condi- tion as on Copper Island: in fact, the re- sults would be more disastroi for the nature of the rookery beach on Bering Is- land is much less favorable to the pups in protecting them from being trampled to death. “To sum up, a zapuska as contemplated would result in no addition of a single fe- male to the herd, loss in the total number of Killables, highly injurtous overstocking of the rookeries with fighting males and @ consequent heavy loss of young pups killed shortly after birth. “A zapuska without total stoppage of pelagic sealing would be even more sense- less, as the females would continue to decrease at a much greater rate than the males, more females than males being killed at sea, and the resultant overstock- ing of the rookeries with bulls would be even more disproportionate and more dis- astrous. Pribilof Islands Experience. “That these considerations are not mere fanciful theories is plainly shown by our experience on th> Pribilof Islands. As soon 4s the falling off in the catch of the bach- clors called attention to the decrease of the seal herd a halt was called; the killing on land was reduced to a minimum. The temporary officials were then under t Same erroneous impression as the Russian authorities now, viz., that the calamity con- sisted in the decrease of the bachelors, and they overlooked that it was the females, and they only, that needed being looked after. For several years only a fraction of the killable seals was allowed to be taken. What was the recult? A single additional female on the rookeries? No; loss to the lessees and the government of the bacnel- crs spared; a corresponding gain to the pelagic sealers; a deplorable superabun. dance of bulls on the Pribilof rookerie and numerous pups trampled to death scon after their birth. America has thus paid very dearly for her blunder. Are the Rus- sists going to repeat it? “It is quite possible that th the example of Robben Island. Thus, in 1s%1, only 450 skins were taken; then,-in none; but in 1895, 1,500. Apart from the fact that raiding on land took place, I will only call atteniion to the fact that until within the last couple of years the Killing on Robben Island was not so rigidly restricted to the males as is usual on the other rookeries. “Finally, it may be said against me that I have formerly favored a total prohibition of killing on land one year. It must be re- membered that the recommendation in question was penned in 1895. At that time the number of males on Bering Island was more disproportionate than at present; consequently it seemed more desirable to increase the number of bulls. At that time ve did not have the experience from the South Rookery, which shows that a much smaller number cf males is sufficient than has hitherto been held possible. “I may add that the recommendation was made upon the suppositicn of a temporary suspersion of pelagic sealing only, and that it was thought nece ry to make such concession to the pelagic seal order to obtain this suspensien. Since 18% we have learned a great deal, and progre: is cnly possible if we recognize and re- nounce our past mistakes. “It can now be asserted with certainty that a zapuska of five years, or of one year, will retard the rehabilitation of the rook- eries not only for so many years as the za- puska lasts, but until the blunder be cor- rected by a whoiesale killing off of the su- perfiuous bulls resulting at the end of the zapuska.”” y may quote some in o- ATTEMPTED CHILD MURDER. Infant but Few Hours Old Found on Vacant Lot. ‘The officers of the 9th precinct are in- vestigating a case of alleged attempted murder, the mother of the victim, a white male infant, only a few hours old, being charged with complicity. Policeman Archambault of the 9th precinct found the baby on a vacant lot near 6th and E streets northeast about 10 o'clock last night. There was a suspicious noise heard on the lot by persons on their way home from church, and later the policeman was notified of it. When he went to the lot he found the child without any clothing or covering of any kind, and he took it to a house in the neighborhood. The chiid seemed strong and able to hold its own, despite the effort to end its life. When the child had been made comfortable it ‘was put In a warm covering and taken to the Bruen Home, on M street.
