partly serve the object of the export duty, as do the regulations of the On- tario government in regard to lumber, without bringing into force the retail atory clauses of the Dingley bill. The absence of any agitation is evil dence of an understanding with the government. MT. Payne is expected to be able to influence the settlement of the pulp question.
 "In the dispute about the duties on wood pulp" says the Montreal Herald. it is more than probable the Cana dian commissioners will be enabled to leave the fight for better terms ill the hands of the American newspapers. The American Newspapers Associa- tion, representing 157 daily news papers, and therefore the greater part of the consumption of print paper in the United States, is working with might and main against the paper and pulp trust, which is at present credited with having blocked the negotiations. The trust, moreover, has, through its agents, boasted of it's ability to pre- vent the ratification of any treaty that interferes with the duties on paper and pulp. But the newspapers have not accepted this statement as final. and are doing their best to in- fiuence the commission and congress in the opposite direction
