THE SEALING INDUSTRY.
HANDICAPPING BRITISH AND COLUMBIAN SEALERS. Received August 11, 8.50 p.m. LONDON, August 11. The Japanese Pelagic fleet, not being bound by the Convention prohibiting British and American fleets killing seals within a zone of sixty miles around Pribiloo Island, pursues seals up to the ordinary three nvle limit. This so injuriously affects the British and Columbia sealing industry that the owners of British and Columbia sealers contemplate placing their vessels under the Japanese flag.
