ment If the stories Of American sea
captains who have cruised in the Arctic
regions since the Paris award i'll Bering
sea matters may be believed, the British
fur sealers are Systematically violating
every condition Of the treaty, carrying
plenty of arms to do as they please, and
laugh at threats or complaints from
America. 1t is claimed that the
British Vessels Are All Cruising Boldly
without regard to the treaty, because
there are no American cruisers to watch
them and protect American rights un-
Ger the treaty. On the other hand it is
said that by reason Of advantage Of po-
sition- and superiority en- the seas, Great
Britain is carefully guarding our YES
sells, and that every violator of the law,
however technical, is promptly reported
and summarily dealt with.
1t is alleged that guns and firearms
have Teen used in violation Of the
treaty and that no attention has been
paid to the injunction which prohibits
any kind of fur sealing at certain sea
sons of the year.

A TREASURY SURPLUS.
September Shows One for the First Time
in Two Years.

Shows One for the First Time
in Two Years.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.-The condi-
ton of the treasury is slowly improving
and surplus is in sight. For the first
time in two years the receipts OF the
government will this month, under
normal conditions, exceed the expenses.
The indications now are that the surplus
for September will amount to, $500
600 or $3,OO0,O00. This favorable
showing is a source Of much
satisfaction to the officers of the depart
ment, who believe that the turning
point has now been reached. Now, that
business is improving, trade is once
more getting brisk and commerce again
beginning to assume normal proper
tons, and the treasury pulse feels the
accelerated action through all the arter-
les Of trade, and, instead of showing q
deficit, begins to accumulate a surplus

WE'RE FORCED TO Do IT
Northern Pacific Receivers Could
Not DO Otherwise Than
Resign.
The Conflicting Orders of Diff
ferent Courts Could Not
Be Obeyed. -
They Would Be Subject to Fine
or Imprisonment Whatever
They Did.

ST.. Paul, Sept. 27.-The resignation
of the receivers of the Northern Pacific
handed to Judge jenkins on Tuesday,
was a movement so sudden and unex-
pected on their part that it took the
public by surprise, and few people un-
derstood the meaning or necessity of it.
By a great many it was interpreted to
be merely one move in some complicated
game between the interests that have
been looking toward the control Of the
great railroad properly. The real rea-
sons which compelled this step were
stated, however, by the receivers them
selves
The property of the Northern Pacific
company is situated within the juris-
dictions of some ten different federal
courts. This property constitutes one
system, which cannot, in the nature of
things, be onerated by different and
possibly unfriendly authorities. This
is where the trouble lies.
Review of the Situation.
The receivers Of the Northern Pacific
were first appointed by Judge Jenkins,
in the United States circuit court for the
Eastern District Of Wisconsin. Follow
ing this action, in accordance with the
rule OF comfy above stated, they We're
afterward appointed by the other
| courts having jurisdiction in New York,
| Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota, North
Dakota, Montana Idaho, Washington and
Oregon. They We're, at the time Of their
| appOintment, ordered to account to
Judge Jenkins and for two years-up to
the time of the recent decision by Judge
Hanford-have been doing SO. This
decision creates new and apparently
impossible situation. 1t orders that the
receivers file their accounts in tina,
court and take from it their orders anC
instructions. Thus the receivers were
under obligatiohto report to and
Obey the Instruction
of two separate and independent courts
distant from each other by more thar
half the width Of the continent. Aftel
giving bond of $500, 900 their account
were subject to approval or disapprova
by these different courts, each exercis
ing an independent Judgment. 1t i
this situation which they declare tina
they cannot tolerate. If they were OF
dered to spend $lOO,0 by one court il
improving the road, and forbidden b.
the other court to do so, they would b
in contempt of one or the other in an
event. They would be, in the event Q
any difference whatever between tn
: two courts assuming control, subject t
Imprisonment for contempt in thei
> disobedience of conflicting orders.

Unearthod Mound Builders' Bones.

ST. PAUL, Sept. 27.-Laborers en-
gagged in building road the brow Of
the hill at Mound View Park unearthed
four skeletons. The men had been at
work since Monday excavating one OF
the smaller mounds, and the bodies
were found at depth of six or seven
feet. A careful search was made for
relics, and piece Of copper and three
pieces of pipe We're found. The skele-
tons, it is believed, must have been in
the mound fully eight centuries, and
there is no question but what they are
the skeletons Of mound builders. Fur.
ther search will be made.

IN PITIABLE CONDITION.
Devastation Caused by Canadian
Forest Fires Something
Terrible.
UPWARDS of a Hundred Farm
Houses Said to Have Been
Burned.
One Entire Village Wiped Out.
Inhabitants Fled for Their
Lives.

MONTREAL, Que, Sept. 27.-The big
forest fire that has been raging for the
last two days in the forests Of the
county of Athabasca has destroyed
hundreds of farm houses. The village
of Brawlts Mills is wiped out, and not a
building remains. Even the cattle were
burned in the fields. The inhabitants
fed terror stricken and barely escaped
with their lives. Hundreds of families
became separated in the flight. Most OF
the country from Brawlt's Mills to Ash
ton is a charred and blackened waste.
The fire is eating its way still further
into the interior and the sky>is obscured
by dense smoke. Forestdale and Moose
Park, on MITCHELL 5 road escaped the fire
entirely, but along the Athabasca branch
of the Grand Trunk, the destitution is
pitable.
