Proceedings of the Tribunal (Volume 13) (Paperback)


This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1895.

That is carried on on the coast, and has nothing to do with maritime jurisdiction. Senator Morgan.--That would depend on how it was carried on. Suppose it was in canoes? Mr. Robinson.--I do not think that that would make the least difference, because canoes must land. It is true that I may trade in a canoe; but then I must land, and I do not think, if the natives should come out within the three-mile limit in a canoe, it would make any difference, because it would be within the territorial jurisdiction. Senator Morgan.--The general idea was that Russia asserted that they were interested in the protection of the fur bearing animals. Mr. Robinson.--Not that I know of especially.
