Freight Agents in Convention.

ST. PAUL. MINI, September 15.-Meet-
lngs of the Northwestern Traffic AsSocia-
ton, the Joint Western Classification Com
mittee and the General Freight Agents OF
the Iowa. Minnesota and Dakota roads are
in progress here to-day. At the meeting OF
the Traffic Association tile principal bust
ness under discussion is the combination be-
tween the Manitoba Road and the Canadian
Pacific which prevents the Northwestern
lines from competing for the business FROM
Canadian 20 nts 10 MantOban points. At
the Classification Committee meeting. Com
missioner Wicker, of the Chicago Freight
Bureau, will make strong effort TO get the
roads to abolish the carload rate to Western
points. The jobbers at Missouri River
points, however. are strongly opposed 10
this, as they claim that if one rate is adopt
ed il will ruin their business. As several
of the reads do not care TO antagonize the
Missouri River people, the proposal will
doubtless be defeated.

Fuss While Dying.
Up round Behring's Straits the ma

Up there they hunt the walrus for his
ivory and oil, and also for his hide,
which they make into boats. I've seen
sometimes as many as five hundred of
those animals on a cake of ice. all bel

hear them for miles.
Then, there's the sea-elephant, and
they are tough fellows; too. Its easy
enough killing EN-, but when they are
diving they kick up great fuss. With
their little sharp teeth I've seen 'em
bite off piece of rock as big as spit
toon and throw it at man with fearful
force. found one on reef one day.
