WASHINGTON, September 2lst.-All the
sad memories of the fatal Jeanette Arctic
expedition were revived in the House to-

Nindermann was up. He was one of the

was down on the ships books as an ordi-

penter. For four years he had bill
before Congress for the difference of pay
due HIM. 1t was small amount, in all
only four hundred and odd dollars, but as
he had been in actual want the passage of
the bill will come as a small fortune. He
now lives in Brooklyn dependent, to a
large degree, on the charity of relatives.
