In my upiniol the greatest draw.

-,Ut of the monopoly enjoyed by the
Commercial Fur Seal ou;many, wbose

Here is an organiDaL ion that pays an

I ttluence that It countrle ,he territory,
with the exception of a small portiou
in tIaeoutheamt where the only whites

the famous Hudson Bay compauy,and
as they own all the tradiug posta

it they see fit, starve men into submis

'Phis was demonstrated a abort time

cording to the report of Special Agent
Tingle the seal company did not con
fine Itself to the stipulated number of
seals of their contract during the sea
son just ended, but exceeded thI limit
5,000. It is a question In my mind
whether the company has the privi
legs of killing as many seals as it sees
it and then picknlo out a hundred
thousand ma ketable skins and say
lug: 'We are allowed to do this if we
want to.' Among our people the Im
preeslon prevails that the time has
arrived for speedy action by Congress
both in regard to land and seal lu

a restriction of the privileges granted

bhis residensee in Cuviotoo,Kentucky.
and bhi wife is reported to be In a
dangerous oeaditlon. The other
wounded are doing well.
A ' special fm Greenwood, Ky.,
says: The fear grows hourly thatthe
most terrible part of the story of Mat
*rday's wreck remains yet to be told.
As time weanrs on anod the wreck is
belng cleared, the presence of more
victims among the debrisbecomes ap
parent
Whben the wreck occurred a number
of passengers who were Is the Isdies'
oeeah and smoking :ear on the north
bound train sueeded in making their
JueOpe the ar with .turiltg Ln.
erles. Juet wb they are bow
asy i s et.kews. Let the
hi,rrible mistake wee discovered when
the banesof of tw f the bunfurltunate
were found reduc.d almost to asbe.
bouriwl with the burned car.. There
Is ab+olurely n thinga by which Ihey
can be Identifled, and it is not certain
whether the bones are those of a ,'ale,
female or both.
C. OGillespie, of Beaver, a small et
tlenient near this place, vilted the
wreck last night. While digging liI
the rulne he discovered the bair at
tached to the scalp of a woman; the
flesh, ofeoiurse, was burued away,but
the beautiful long lUse are in a good
state of pieservatlon, and almost In
the same spot where the hair was dim
e'overed Gilloeplie f, und a child's ahoe.
The other shoe has not yet been
fu..nd, neither has any a.count been
given of the loss of childl. A little
deeper in the debris in the same spot
where the hair and shoe were found,
(allesplle picked up a letter. It we.
written In a good plain feminine band
and dated at tit, Augustine, addreseed
to "Dear Lulu" and wee signed Ben.
Taere is nothing In the letter to give
any clue to the name of the writer or
receiver, and the envelope unfortu
nately cannot be found.
Atter the accident a search wa·
made for an unknown man, who was
seen to uter the toilet room of the
ladies' coach in the north bound train
an insatant before the crash came. He
was never seen again, and all effort.
to lucite him prove futiled. It is be
lyeed that be was unable to get out of
the apartment and w as burned todeath
in the car. It is believed that the
bones found Iuat night are those of a
man and woman. The child was
probably with its mother and died
with her, its body being burned in
the debries. The suspicion grow.
steadily that there are yet more Io.
pie in the wreck than havebeen ex.
tricated.
