Charles johnson, treasurer of Cook
county, arrived in Duluth Saturday, and
he reports that tho wolves on the north
shore are particularly fierce and hungry
this winter. He was followed all the
way down by packs of them that threat
ened him constantly. He left Grand
Marais Tuesday with a team of three
dogs, and the wolves followed him, keep
ing up with the dogs. Toward evening
they became holder and would come
close up to the sled. This continued
until Two Harbors was reached. Mr..
johnson reports that the wolves are very
troublesome along the north shore
They are made desperate by the cold
and deep snow, and are making attacks
upon cattle belonging to the settlers.
Last week lumber scaler was working
late in the woods when he was attacked.
and he was just rescued in time. He
was standing on a pile Of logs holding
the wolves at bay, and one, holder than
the , pt, had taken nip at his leg.-Du-

County Treasurer johnson of Grand
Marais, arrived here Friday last, having
made the trip with his dog team over the
trail very hard road to travel in win
ter, especially during tho weather pre-
vailing last week. He was on route for
st. Paul, where he will look after leg1s-
latlon demanded by Cook county. He
reports all we'll at the land locked harbor
OF the North Shore, and stated that they
had experienced some weather there.
The Duluth newspapers printed sensa-
tlonal accounts of how he was followed
the entire distance by pack Of hungry
wolves, which only dropped him at the
outskirts OF Two Harbors. He reported
tho varmints very fresh and numerous at
all points east Of here. 1t was a pretty
good story but he brought the animals
too near town.-Two Harbors News.

ceipts over all previous records. This,
TOO, has apparently made little Impression

That the transportation interests are de-
termined to share still further in the I'M

proved by the general advance in rates

A Natural Interest.

London. December 29.-It has been
learned by Il representative OF the Asso-
ciated Press that the United States cru s.
er Montgomery's visit TO Liberia Is ap-
parentIy the result of overtures made to
washington by that republic. Though the
British government is in complete ignor-
ance Of the Montgomery mission, the o'-
Enlistment of coalipg station in Liberia
BY the United States Is regarded as scarce
ly probable, as. it is asserted, no Liberian
port has any facilities for coaling, a ! OF
them being open and surfbound
TIE Associated Press representative
learns, however, that far more impor-
tant step is under consideration. 1t con-
sists Of Joint request OF the I'm ted
States and Great Britain upon France to
define the boundary between the territory
she claims and that claimed by liberia
This step is not yet decided upon, but
Great Britain only awaits the Uni ell
States assent 10 become party to su h
request. it is alleged that France, Tor
many years. has been encroacning on
Liberia and 1t was only by strenuous
protest Of the United States that sac was
prevented from appropriatng a largo slice
of Liberia in 1882.
Accordcg TO Hon. Arthur Ponsonby,
managing director Of the Liberia rubber
syndicate, which recently guaranteed ihe
interest of Liberals public debt, The Mont
gomerys visit was probably prompted by
a desire to ascertain the extent OF French
activity. Mr. Ponsonby said 10 a rep e.
sentative of the Associated Press:
Bishop Hartzell while in Monrovia this
year, strongly urged the government 20

the boundaries with the result that Lii

sensations ard presume the command + Of

United States, but beyond hosting her
flag upon it, it would be OF little service

republics progress had better be under the
protection of either Great Britain or thu
United States. But both the Br fish gov
eminent and those having interests there
believe that SO long as Liberia can con
tinue to struggle on in her pre- emit con1i-
ton. everything possible shocld BE- done

Liberia decorated Mr. Ponsonby this
week with the Order of African Redemp-
tton, In recognition of his services against
encrcachments
