Alaska as well as in Siberia. As to the
moss, official reports indicate that the
visible supply of it IS even more abundant
in Alaska than on the Siberian coast. It
is also fair to suppose that care and
attention will improve the reindeer like
other animals. In some Arctic countries
these animals are the chief source of
wealth and very naturally when they fill
such variety of uses. DIR. Sheldon
Jackson, in urging an appropriation by
Congress for introducing the reindeer
into Alaska, noted that in Lapland,
Sweden, Norway and Russia there werc
about 400, 900 tame reindeer, which
supplied many people with much Of
their food and clothing. The present
experiment at Port Clarence will be

since after proper multiplication OF the

STILL ANOTHER SYSTEM
New Plan for Making Mortgage
Loans and Collecting Them.

New Plan for Making Mortgage
Loans and Collecting Them.
The papers in a money-loaning dis
pute filed yesterday in the district court
disclosed some peculiar methods of doing
business. The title of the case is Paul
Fontaine and wife against l.. Robert
Miller, George w. DetlOff and Frank r.
Sims. Miller carries on loan business
in the Wright block. Some twelve
months ago Fontaine applied to him
for a loan of $500. After consider
upon between the two. Miller wanted
the note and mortgage made for 5000,
as it would enable him to sell
the note better, and he would
lndorse $500 on the back of 1T.
Fontaine drew the $500 less S45 deduct
ed for commission. and the note and
mortgage were made 10 Detloff at 10
per cent interest for six months. OH
the note becoming due Fontaine was
unable to meet ii, but told Miller he
would be able to do so in few weeks.
The extension of time was refused, and
suit was commenced in the municipal
court in the name of Frank b. Sims,
who, it was said, had purchased the
note from Detloff. The case came to
trial, and the note was declared void on
the ground of usury. FontaiDe, how
ever, did not wish to avoid payment
altogether, and offered Miller, so it is
claimed, the lot on which the mortgage
runs. Miller wanted 500 more, aud
now FOntaine asks the district court to
declare the mortgage void, as it was
given to secure a void note. He further
claims that Detloff and Sims do not live
in this state, and are only covers for
Miller.

RUSHING THE BILLS.
Senators Get a Real Hustle on
Themselves.


WASHINGTON, June 30. = The first
thing before the senate today was the
conference report OH the diplomatic
and consular appropriation bill, and it
was agreed to without remark or ques-
tion) just as soon as the reading of it
was finished by the clerk. Then the
Legislative appropriation bill was taken
up and in about an hour all the amend
ments had been acted upon and the bill
had been passed. The pension appro-
priation bill was taken up and passed
in still shorter measure, although not
until some very important facts as to
the rate at Which the pension business
is growing and as to its probable cost
within few years (put at $500, 900
YEAR, had been stated by Senators Stew
art. German and Cockrell.
Pending the decuSSi0n on the pension
bill there were two executive sessions
held, the feature of which was the con-
fifnation of Secretary j. W. Fosters
nomination.
The pOStoffice appropriation bill was
taken up and passed-the amendment
striking out the appropriation for the
fast mail service and inserting new
section to combine the third and fourth
class mail matter into one class (the
third, having been severally rejected.
The bill for the free coinage of silver
was taken up and unanimous consent
was given that vote be taken on the
| bill and amendments next Friday at 2
p. m.
The legislative. executive and judicial
appropriation bill was taken up. the
commission been stricken out, and two
items appropriating $50, 800 for the sala
ries of five commissioners $4,000 each),
and for expenses of the commission
were inserted. Mr.. Jones, of Arkansas,
was the only Democratic senator who
boted in the Affirmative. The Repub-
lican senators who voted in the mega
tive were Messrs. Carey, FELTON, and
Warren.
Mr.. Carey moved to reduce the sal
aries of the commissioners from $1,000
to $4,000, and spoke in support Of the
amendment and in favor of applying to
the surveyor of the public lands the
$4,000 to be thus saved. The amend
ment was also favored by Messrs;
FELTON, and Sherman, and it was agreed
to. The salaries of the commissioners
were therefore fixed at $1,000 each.
Mr.. Carey offered another amendment
that any of such commissioners who
may hereafter be appointed shall be
residents of the territory of Utah.
Agreed to. The bill was then passed.
The pension appropriation bill was
then taken up. The only important
amendment recommended by the COM
mittee on appropriations is one increas-
ing from sl33. 04S, 500 to s144, 956, 600 the
appropriation for invalids, widows and
orphans pensi ons. After long debate
the committee amendments were agreed
to and the bill passed.
The postoffice appropriation bill was
then taken up and passed, as was also
the senate bill for the relief of settlers
upon certain lands IN the states of South
and North Dakota. 1t requests the st.
