THE BERING SEA DECISION.
What Editors Say About the Finding
of the Tribunal.

The newspapers today generally comment
on the decision announced yesterday by
the Boring sea tribunal. and as a rule the
opinion is held that the decision, while I'm
form favoring Great Britain, in substance
is satisfactory to the American people
The New York Herald says: This country
may well be satisfied with the decision of
the Boring sea arbitrator in Paris yester-
day. 1t is against the United States on
every claim to exclusive right. But IL calls
for the protection of the seals by the Soint
action of this country and Great Britain
and protection is the substantial advan-
tage We have been seeking.
The New York World says: The decision
seems to be against the United States

lessee, the fur company, all that was right

terested countries to carry out the pro-
visions ~

The New York Sun says: So far as the

is Just what was contended for and in a
fair way to be secured by the United States
at the close of the former administration
of Mr.. Cleveland.
The Baltimore Sun: Practically the net re-
suit of the arbitration appears to be that
Great Britain, and other powers also, are
put on basis of substantial equality with
the United States in regard to the sealing
industry in Boring sea. At the same time
the point of protecting the seals has been
gained by the United States. and so far as
that contention is concerned the decision
may be regarded as favorable to this coun-
try.
The Baltimore American: ParadoX.cal as
1t may appear. the Boring sea court of ar
hitration has decided against the main feat
ures OF the American case. and yet has rem
dered a decision more favorable to this
country than the most sanguine expected.
The Philadelphia Inquirer: The Boring sea
decision, although il falls short of what was
claimed on behalf of the United States, can
not fail to prove satisfactory to the Aneri-
can people.

W0man's Kingdom.
From Godey's.


The present century has demonstrated IT.
self an era of agitation; it is essentially
an age of leagues and brOtherhoodS and
associations. Scarcely a year passes bat
some new prophet arises among men, de-
nouncing or exhorting as his particular
bic result of his ministrationS some new
compact is formed, some new society or
ganized. having for its especial object the
development or the aboiition-as the case
may be-of some or other Of the many
phases of our social life.
Among such prophets there have come
among from time to time women Of en-
ergy and intelligence. whose ostensible
mission has been the enlightenment and
emancipation of their sister women. ard
ton of the whole human family. Earnest
such women always are; logical, occasion
ally; and almost invariably more or less
injudicious. The latter quality has. unfcr-
tunately, too often betrayed itself to their
disadvantage: and in their laudable en-
deavor to achieve fame they have not infre-
quently chosen the swiftest and surest
roads to oblivion.
Speaking generally, the educated woman
Of this period is gifted with fair amount
nently capable of using in a perfectly Jog
ical way. Clear headed and rational. she
perceives the folly of such an universal
iconoclasm as the woman agitator advo-
Gates. She knows that to sweep away all
established precedents at one blow means
behind; and she cannot quite see that she
will ultimately gain anything by forcing
an issue and seeking to accomplish in one
day what in the ordinary course Of events
can scarcely take place within quarter Of
a century at least. Thus she plods stead
lily on In the beaten track. declining to be
coerced into any other mode Of lifo than
that which she herself has chosen.

ed by a desire to secure a monopoly OF the
seal fu- trade for any company, il has been
pronounced untenable. The truth
Is that we never had the faiutest ground
in international law for our claim that
Boring sea was a mare clausum or that
by cession from Russia we acquired ex-
elusive Jurisdiction over the eastern por-
ton Of it, or that We acquired any right in
seals outside of the th-ee-mile limit All
of the money spent on such absurd claims
has been thrown away.
The New York Times says that there is
every reason why the United States should
be entirely satisfied with the conclusions of
the board of arbitration.
The New York Recorder says: We have
not won all that We contended for in the
Boring sea question, but Great Britain has
less reason to be satisfied with the con-
illusions of the commission than we have
The New York Tribune says: England has
the letter of the decision and the United
States have the seal. In this way a pro-
tracted international controversy is brought
to a close
The New York Press says: The decision

BY THEIR BEARDs.
HOW the Kansas POpulists Cultivate

How the Kansas POpulists Cultivate
Their Face Frinxes.
From the Chicago Herald
The boards these Kansas populists wear
are weirdly interesting. They are long
and broad and scrawny. Some of them
look as though they had been hooked on
the chin with snap catch. Others roll
down greasy vests and come to a sorrel
point at the knees. Then there are boards
that start from the eyes and roll in pillows
to the collarless shirt where they are
tucked behind the linen and made to serve
the purpose Of underclothing. Some of
these boards are tied In knots. Others are
braided and left to hang upon the Shout
ders like the fannel-wrapped tresses of an
Indian girl. Then there are ing-dongs
midways, daubers. lambrequins, bijous
Guthries. Virginia creepers and roush-and-
ready smilax. Some Of these populists
sprout their boards beneath their chins
and nurse them to such a length that the
wind catching them unawares whirls them
about like the skirts Of a serpan tine dane er
Other members OF the party wear heredi-
tary whiskers-whiskers that We're handed
down by the old man a sort of evidence
of thrift. These boards look like quarter
sections of alfalfa, with a pocket here and
there in the thicket like the buffalo wal
lows on the plains of Montana. Now and
then you Will find a popuiist in Kansas
whose whiskers look like punches of REIN
deer moss-gnarly gray and forbidding.

A FRIGHTENING OUTLOOK.
The Feeling i'm Wall Street Better
WatchinE COnHress.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, Aug 16.-As foreshadowed
in this column yesterday the Northern Pa
ciiic railroad succumbed to the inevitable
and went into the hands Of receivers. This
action Of the company was not made public
until after the close of the days business,
and no well-informed broker was surprised
by the announcement. The company has
long been contending with chain Of ad-
verse conditions resulting from a heavy
floating debt and the active competition Of
the two great roads that have paraileied its
tracks. SO that the directors were power
less TO prevent its ultimate collapse.
Mr.. Thomas F. Cakes, the president Of
the road, Mr.. H. c.. Payne, for many years
counsel for the Chicago, Milwaukee and ST
Of the Missouri. Kansas and Texas were ap-
pointed receivers.
Prices both at home and abroad were not
sively to the fact that liquidation in Wall
street has about run its course. Such an
event in ordinary times would have precipi-
tated a panic, but now calamity and dis
aster attract only momentary notice and
trading is no longer Influenced by senti-
ment.
1t is also significant that both the COM
mon and preferred stock of the Northern
Pacific sold higher during the first hour
this morning than they closed last night.
Affairs in Washington are watched with
unusual interest and 1t is generally con-
coded that an unconditional repeal of the
Sherman bill is no longer to be hoped for
and that long and tiresOme debates must
intervene before any action is taken. Con-
ditions. however. beneath the surface seem
to prompt more cheerful feeling and some
substantial aid is daily expected. The mar
ket looks oversold in spots and the pessi-
mistic bear may get panic stricken at any
moment and be called up to make good his
short contracts at bull prices.
Boston advices today announce that the
Burlington directors have declared their
usual quarterly dividend of Ia per cent.
The continued gold imports. the fact that
the prospect of better bank statement
this week are all encouraging signs and
must eventually tell upon the course Of
prices.
The last half hour was the most spirited
Of the days trading. Money dropped to 3
per cent and prices were marked up to
the highest figures of the day. General
Electric advanced to 42 L. a net advance
Of IA per cent. The closing was strong
throughout the entire list.

THE HOUSE.

Immediately after the reading of the
journal. Mr.. Meiklejohn (NebD asked unani-
nous consent for the consideration nj a
resolution requesting the Secretary Of the
Treasury to communicate to the House
certain information relating to the Eur
chase and coinage Of silver under the Shef-
man law.
Mr.. Tracey ON. W sugy >sted that the
gentleman could obtain the Information by
addressing a note to the Secretary, but he
made no objection and the resolution was
adopted.
The silver debate was then resumed.
Mr.. Mccall (Mass.). speaking in favor of
repeal. said that he agreed with the oppo-
nents Of the bill that bi-metallism and
mono-metallism were at ISSUE but the
cause Of bi-metaliism was represented by
the friends Of repeal. A continuance Of
the policy of buying silver would newt
ably deprive the government of it's stock
Of gold and place this country upon the
silver standard and this would practically
demonetize gold. Under the operation Of
the act of 1880 the government had lost
nearly one hundred millions of gold, and
could not be distant when it would be un-
able to redeem in that metal. The real
question at issue was one Of the stand
ards: 1t would be madness, when the
whole Of the civilized and large part of
the heather world had stopped the COIN
age of silver, for the United States to make
tnat metal It's STANDARD OF value.
Self representation drives US to wage war
for gold. and out Of the contest would
spring the fixing Of an international status
for silver. He had listened with astonish-
ment to the assaults upon the bankers of
the country. The bankers were as neces-
sary. under our complicated social system,
as the farmers. and if they cast as many
votes they would probably be treated with
equal respect. The fury of the present storm
had fallen upon them, and when he saw the
courage with which they had faced decreas-
ing deposits and increasing deficits, and the
ingenuity of the expedients they had
adopted to preserve the vast interests in
trusted to their care and to prevent a gen.
eral break down In business, far from
calling them Shylocks, he believed that
whether they had few or many votes they
were, as a rule, entitled in this crisis to the
admiration as they should certainly receive
the support of the country.
If the United States continued the exist
ing policy it would inevitably extract from
our veins every drop of the rich golden
blood that vitalized the commerce Of every
civilized nation. Pass this bill, and while 1t
would not restore confidence at one blow, 1t
would remove one of the chief causes Of the
existing depression and would restore again
a large measure Of the prosperity which we
SO lately enjoyed.
Mr.. COOmbs.
Mr.. Coombs On. W said that he would
not. although he was citizen Of New York,
attempt to defend the city Of New York.
