A controversy (1886 -- 93) between Great Britain and the
United States as to the right of Canadians not licensed by
the United States to carry on seal fishing in the Bering Sea,

clausum. A court of arbitration, meeting in Paris in 1893,
decided against the claim of the United States, but
established regulations for the preservation of the fur seal.
