The natives of the Artic regions have a
barbarous, but effective, way of dealing
with the wolves which are pest there
Sharp blades are stuck in the ice and
baited. The meat freezes, and in thawing
it out with his tongue the blade cuts the
tongue, ultimately preventing the beast
from licking the snow, and thirst finally
kills the animal.

The Senate.
WASHINGTON, July 23d.-The Senate to.
| day agreed to the conference report on
the river and harbor bill.
1t then, in open executive session, took
up the fisheries treaty, and was addressed
by Senator Dawesin opposition to its ratifi-
c. ton.
Mr.. Stewart also spoke briefly in opposi-

During the discussion Gray said that
| Secretary Bayard had disavowed the Balti-
more Sun interview.
Hoar replied that if the interview be true
the Secretary of State has learned nothing
in relation to the fishing interests, except
the language of the London fish market.
Gray retorted that he did not understand
the sense or propriety which will allow a
| Senator TO comment on language imputed
to another and which that other person
| disayowed.
Dawes asked if the Secretary of State
had not denied the interview. 1t simply
got out without his authority, and that's ali

UNLAWFUL PREFERENCE.
A Decision Calculated to Interfere With
the Oil Trust,

WASHINGTON, July 23d.-The Interstate
Commerce Commission to day decided in
effect that the methods by which the
Standard Oil Company came to be such a
gigantic monopoly must cease to be used
The decision is in the case of Schofield,
Shurmier and Teagle and Others against
the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern
Railroad, involving the oil rates of firms
from Cleveland to other cities. The Com
mission decided that it is an unlawful
preference when railroads make rate in
favor of oil shipments in tank carloads as
against shipment in barrel carloads; the
practice is ordered to be corrected and the
mode prescribed by which this must be
done is by giving the same rates on each
per pound. The opinion is by Commits
sioner Bragg.
