WASHINGTON Cry, Nay 2a-On motion
CT Dolph, Thursday, tho senate took up the
bill restoring TO the United States certain
OF the lands granted to the Northern Pacific
Railroad company" Van Wyck explained
that the bill proposed the forfeiture of a
portion OF tho original grant over which the
Northern tacitc did not now contemplate
building line, Letween Wallula and Port
land lie thought there were other lands
sone along tho completed portion of tho
read-which should be included in the bill,
and he moved an amendment providing for
the forfeiture of all the Northern Pacific
railroad grant except lands for which the
lines were completed before July !, lS'9, and
except the light of way.
Edmunds thought that the question OF
forfeiting lands was one which involved
complicated points Of law requiring serious
consi ieratioB, aud he regretted that Van
Wyck hal offered his amendment at this
time as up5n it there would be great dif-
ference OF opinion i'll congress-
After further debate an amendment Of

the passage of the committee bill should
not be taken as waiver by congress,

A BARBAROUS' TREATY.
WHICH, BEING THE LAW, HAS TO

Some In-Feeling Manifesting Itself in

gress adopts the Frye Amendments.
Boston, Mass May 2S A Halifax special
says: The opinions of Portland fishing YES
sci owners, republishei here, have increased
the ill-feeiing now beginning to manifest
itself. A gentleman who thoroughly under
stands this question says that neither Eng
land nor Canada was anxious to enforce the
provisions of this 'barbarous" treaty of 1918,
but the Americans would not agree to ap-
point commission to modify it. The
United States congress deliberately OF
their own free will went back to its
provisions, leaving England and Canada
nothing else to do but vigorously enforce it
The talk OF Mr. Dyer, OF Portland, to make
a test case Of registering fishing vessel
and sending her to Nova Scotia to obtain a
cargo Of fresh herring and distribute them
to 1. fleet OF American fishermen 10 be wait
ing outside the three mile limit, is nonsense,
That would be an act of piracy as lar as
Canada is concerned and would be severely
punished under the laws Of the United

at Digby in the case of the Jennie and Julia
and failed
TORONTO, Can, May 2S-Ths Mail, re-
ferrng to the difficulty over the seizure of
the schooner David j. Adams, says: "If,
as the London Times asserts the English
people have no interest i'll seeing that their
Canadian fellow sub ,ects are not robbed he
it so. A thorough understanding of this
fact, if it he a fact, might perhaps set some
of us thinking very seriously about the
drawbacks of colonial existence, but it
would not frighen us into srrendering
our property to the Americans Our plain
duty TO ourselves, ii the Americans will
agree to no reasonable settlement, is to con.
tinue TO protect our fish as best we can

capital Of $40, 200, deal Ia only 5000
bushels ct q time, and only on the
fluctuations OF cent, and conduct the
operations In this way. Buy "a fiVen
ct IS cents II wheat goes 70 "a cents;
sell Ont and 90 short ave, and a every
decline o. cent buy On an additional
five. II wheat drops 10 70 cents, then
y cents, aud then n cents, the specu-
lator is short q, 900 bushels; then sup
pose Il rallies 70 y cents, that's the
lime 70 buy Il Ia and close out. There
IL q loss Of $50 on the original purchase
q IS cents and the sale e n cents. bot
there Is . profit Of 500 on the sale at
a cents and OF $50 on ths sale nc %
cents, % the net profit Is $50. OF
course. II wheat starts up the purchase
81 Is cents must be held and the
scheme reversed By buying instead Of
selling at every sdvance Of cent, and
when q turns and declines cent the
