WOLVES IN NORWAY.
Said to unvc Increased In Nu,abcrs VIII.
in Recent Years,

In Recent Years.
During tho last two, or thrcc yeas
wolves have without dUubt increased cci.
siderably in Norway. Not only lavo they
committed q good deal of damage amono
domestic animals, but i'll some cases tn,
elk have been so prosecuted By thoin Us 10
be obliged to take refuge among the
hnunts Of men. In the Selbo district, near
TroEdhjem, the remains of several clks
were found IN the forest, with the tracks
of the bloodthirsty brutes showing plenti-
fully in the snow all round, while many
moro of tho big deer must undoubtedly
havo fallen victims to their ravonous up
petites. Two mon driving q sleigh with
Sleepers for tho railway came across big
elk in sore plight. Three of tho pack which
had attacked him lay around dead or dy-
ing, pierced with his great antlers, while
he himself could barely stand. Needless
to say, the worthy peasants made tho most
of tho occasion. They killed the unhappy
bull, and they claimed and received the
government reward for each of the wolves
Only, however, when they are in droves
will wolves attack the larger animals. At
first they try to stalk their intended vic
tim, and thon, springing upon it with
long bounds, they ondeavor to pull it
down. Failing in this, they proceed to
hunt it in tho most methodical manner,
two or three following the quarry closely,
tho Others endeavoring to cut off its retreat
by lying in wait and bounding at its
throat. In spring and summer wolves are
rarely seen, rs they keep for the most part
at tho solitude of tho woodlands but in
severe cold and stormy weather they col
lect together i'll packs and descend to the
moro open and inhabited tracts of the
country.
While herding his reindeer during the
long winter of the far north the Laplandcr
must be on his guard against marauding
wolves. Frequently for weeks together
there is no sign of the common enemy.
Then, without warning, the cry Of tho
watcher rings out over the snow, "The
wolves arc afoot!' And however binding
the snow, however dark tho night, all the
inhabitants of tho little camp rush forth
to defend the animals which to them rep
resent wealth, clothing, food, existence it
self. In such melee the small, wiry dogs,
of which the Laps always keep number,
perform an important part, barking and
swapping at their big opponents in the
most plucky way and distracting their
attention generally until tho arrival Of
their owners upon tho sccne.--Pall Mall

THE FIRST SENSATION.
Trouble Over a Molten to Reconsider
the Florida Decision.

lTOuUIe over MOtlGn 10 Reconsider
the Florida Decision.
st. Louis. June 11.--There was a gen.
uine sensation In the meeting Of the ma
tional committee tonight Just as soon
as the contest In the first Mississippi
district had been disposed of. Senator
Hansbrough, Of North Dakota, with the
preliminary explanation that he did SO
at the request of number of members
who were not present at the afternoon
session, moved a reconsideration Of the
veto by which the Morton delegates in
the first Florida district were seated.
General Hobart, Of New Jersey, Sec
onded the motion. Fessendon, of Con-
necticut uttered few words of protest
and which were drowned in cries of
vote" The calling of the roll was
commenced and for few moments the
ayes and nays were about equal. When
New York was reached. Committeeman
Sutherland arose and stated that he de-
clined to vote. He went on to say that
upon the contest in question 43 members
haG recorded their deliberate convic-
tions, larger number than had been
polled upon any other motion. It was
worse than nonsense for any member
to assert that he. voted by mistake or
misapprehension. The lines had been
closely drawn and the issue clearly de-
fined. II desire to say here and now"
continued Mr. Sutherland, in an ex-
tremely digniled and serious tone and
manner. that If this resolution is
adopted. I shall no longer regard 1t as
necessary or desirable to participate in
the proceedings of this committee Its
doings will have become farcial and
shall wash my hands Of it and its pro-
ceedings. The course now proposed Is
revolutionary and without justification
and 1t will prove destructive to the can
didates Of the Republican party. now
withdraw my refusal to vote, and vote
| no."
| There was buzz of excitement as the
speaker concluded. The roll call was
resumed. When Ohio was reached,
Committeeman Hahn, of Mansfield. said
with emphasis that he saw no reason
why the gentleman from New York
should withdraw from the committee.
There were methods employed in New
York that were not open and above
suspicion as would be demonstrated
when the contests from that state were
reached. and If the committee was un-
duly exercising its power, 1t was doing
nothing more than had been done in
New York time and again. He intend
ed to vote for reconsideration and Of
fered no apology for doing so.

st. Louis, June lit was a busy day
for the national committee. Up to 6
o'clock this evening when short recess
for dinner was taken, 1t had, In the
space of eight hours, heard the evidence
in and adjudicated upon total Of ten
contests, involving the placing upon
the temporary roll Of "a delegates. In
some cases the questions submitted
were intricate ana involved, and these
were debated without consideration of
time. Where, however, a contest was
regarded as frivolous or based upon
grounds not recognized by the rules of
the party, short work was made Of 1t.
Among the contestants were scattering
supporters Of Reed, Morton and Allison,
but the sum total Of the days work was
the seating Of % pronounced adherents
of Major Mckinley and Of two delegates
favorable to the nomination Of Cover
nor Morton. In this latter conteet-that
of the first Florida district--some Of the
Mckinley members Of the committee
made bitter fight, but the evidence
adduced for the friends Of the New
Yorkers-Archibald and Robinson-was
so regular and overwhelming that pre-
ference traces were kicked over and
some Of the Ohio mans warmest friends

spokesmen. with the result that the

prepared the statement to the United
Press. in which he called upon the
friends of Speaker Reed to redouble
their efforts to bring about his nomina-
tion. Pressed this evening to make
clear the apparent discrepancies be-
tween his last bulletin and that Of last
evening. the political manager Of the
lamented Blaine and chief of the sup
porters of the present candidate from

statement was sufficiently self-explana-
tory for the present and needed no Ella

that just such break as occurred in

M'KINLEY WILL
HAVE A STRUGGLE
Still q Fighting Chance for the Field at
St. Louis.
A CHANGE ON THE CHESS BOARD
An Alliance of All Opposition Will BE
Made Against tMckinley..The Mon.
etary Plank Will Determine the
NOminatiOn..CO Convention Topics.

st. Louis, Mo-. June 11.-McKinley is
not to be nominated without a struggle.
Twenty-four hours have so changed
the position on the political chess-bOard
that there is still fighting chance for
the field against Mckinley. The stumb-
ling block in the road of the latter In
the divergent views OF the delegates
on the financial plank Of the platform.
These differences are as wide as the
continent and at present seem irrecon-
cilable. The western delegates main
tain their adherence to silver with a
frankness that in former gatherings
of the party would have been punished
as political heresy. The other half OF
the country Is represented by sound
money advocates who will listen to no
suggestion of any other platform dec
laration. This issue even in these ante
convention days has ranged the dele
gates in two camps. The men from
Maine and the far east still uphold the
banner for Reed, while those from
Iowa, supported by scattering delegates
from the middle west declare them
selves for Allison. Quay will, of course,
sylvania and Morton is assured of all
but four of the New York votes. Brad
ley has NOT been side by the al
luremant of the ce-presidency. So
many tables have been compiled show
ing both that Mckinley will or will not
be nominated on the first ballot that
they are valueless.
The monetary plank of the platform
will, unless a miracle supervenes. de-
termine the nomination for or against
the leader. The arrival of Thomas c.
Platt tonight gave encouragement and
impetus to the opposition. While he is
not In sympathy with the silver wing
Of the party. 1t is thought he will be the
rallying point for a combined opposi
ton. There is no hint that other than
an honorable fight will be made against
Mckinley, but political exigencies as
presented here demand the alliance of
all opposition for successful struggle
against the Mckinley avalanche.
PLATT PROBABLY PLOTTING.
When the national committee re-
sumed its session tonight, it was no.
ticed that several prominent members,
principally those from eastern states,
were absent. Among them We're Gear,
of Iowa; Yerkes. Of Kentucky, and
Manley, Of Maine. Later on, 1t was
learned that a conference of anti-Mc.
Kinley leaders was being held in the
rooms occupied by Thomas c. Platt II
was stated that the absent committee.
men were in attendance at the invita-.
tion of Mr.. Platt and that the situation
was being discussed with the view OF
sizing up the strength Of the anti-Mc-
Kinleyites and formulating some plan
to counteract the strength that the Ohio
candidate has shown he will possess ir
the convention. The conference was ir
session at 10 o'clock and no informa
tion could be secured as to what haG
been proposed or adopted.
