WILL SOON BE EXTINCT.
Alaskan Seals Rapidly Surrounding to In
roads of POachers.

Washington, Jan. I.-Some interest
ing facts in regard to, the Alaskan seal
fisheries were stated to the house COM
mittee on territories by Governor Sneak
ley, Of Alaska, today. The governor
declares the seals are practically ex-
tinct and will be entirely SO within a
short time. Although the government
authorized the killing of $4,000 last year
by the fur company. they could find
but 1900 for the market. He said no
less than $4,000 pups had died because
their mothers were killed by poachers
Poaching is largely carried on, he said,
Notwithstanding recent legislation.
Temperance people could find field
for their work in Alaska also, accord
ing to the governor, who asserted that
while the territory was prohibition
by law it was free whiskey in practice.
Traders had only to secure certificate
from the commissioner of internal rev.
enue to carry on their business.
The governor recommended the SUBJ
stitution of license system for the
prohibitory law or else authority to en-
force the latter. He deprecated the es-
tablishment Of a territorial government
for Alaska but asked that the govern
ment give authority to appoint COM
missioners for the courts in remote
settlements and desired improved mail
facilities up the Yukon river, where
the mail is now carried but once year.

a resolution of the senate, the president
has sent to that body a complete copy
Of the eXtradition proceedings of Cen
eral EZeta, late vice president of Saliva
dor, and other refugees who were gran
ted asylum on board the Bennington.
The record is very volluminous.
1t appears from the correspondence
that the authorities OF the new govern

forts to have Ezeta and his companions
surrendered to them, both immediate

Bennington and after his discharge at
San Francisco. on the grounds that he
was a common criminal. but this de-
mand was resisted in both instances
There are kilograms from brothers Of
ETA representing that his surrender
was sure to be followed by his execu-

Much Of the correspondence is OF a
technical legal character. Among 9TH

notice of the desire Of his government

FRAUD UPON THE PEOPLE,
Dairymen Want Filled Cheese Treate,
Like Oleomargarine.

Washington, Jan. lat today's
session of the National Dairy union
short addresses were made by Repre-
sentatives Hatch (MissourD and Grout
VermonD. Assistant Secretary of Ag-
ruculture Dabney and others. 1t was
declared that manufactured limitations
of butter, oleomargarine, was a fraud
upon the people, and that IT severely in
terfered with the European markets
for the genuine article because 1t came
in competition with it and by many
European dealers having been repeat
eddy imposed upon. had declined to
handle either the genuine or the spur
ious article as all American butter had
been thrown under suspicion. This, ii
was asserted. was equally true of filled
cheese. which had helped to destroy
European markets even for the best
full cream cheese. A resolution was
adopted petitioning congress to place
full cheese" under the internal reve-
nue. law, to tax it at two cents per
pound and to require that dealers in
filled cheese be licensed the same as
dealers in oleomargarine.

HE LACKED WISDOM
TAYLOR NOW THOUGHT TO HAVE
BEEN SINNED AGAINST.

Been Staggerer to the State, He Kept
on Throwing Good Money After Bad
Till 1t Was Too Late to Retreat-Theory
That He is Hiding Near By--His Re-
Mystery.
Pierre, S. D., Jan. 1.-THE Taylor de-
falcation still absorbs all interest at
the capitol. Ex-Governor Mellette came
in last evening. He is one of the heavi-
est bondsmen and before the flight OF
Taylor was known, even to the state
officials, he wired from Lafayette that
he would be here last night and not to
begin suit on the bonds as he would
, turn everything over to the suit. AS
Lafayette is the home of Taylor's IA
Their 1t was supposed that MIR. Mellette
would have proposition from the bond
men for some sort of a settlement. This
is not lrue. He comes simply as an in
dividual and is unable to throw any
light on the situation. He gives some
information, however. which has chang
ed the theory on which the people here
have been proceeding, namely that Tay-
lor has been collecting every cent OF
available cash in order to pinch the
state and force a compromise The
ex-governor has had some intimate
business relations with Taylor and on
Thursday last went to Chicago to meet
him and straighten them. Taylor had
left the day before and although Mel
lette searched for him for two days he
could get no trace of him. He then
went to Lafayette and discovered that
Taylor was short; that his friends were
unable to help him out and that the de-
fault was inevitable. Mellette was in
Chicago on Dec Il and met Taylor there
The latter was apparently in consulta-
ton with number or his TRENDS ana
bondsmen and with Leppeman. whose
bank at Gettysburg failed three months
ago, and who, through that really drag
ged Taylor down TO his ruin.
The ex-governor states that Taylor
told him a short ago the history Of the
bank at Gettysburg and the way In
which he was caught. During the
panic Of eighteen months ago the bank
got into close quarters and appealed TO
Taylor for help. After consulting with
various bankers, he loaned $4,000 Of the
states money, all agreeing that TO let
the bank fail at that time would en-
dagger every bank in the state and
would probably bring ruin on all the
people AS he had helped ont several
other institutions he helped this. He
soon found, however, that the condi-
ton Of the institution was much worse
than he had suspected, and having
placed so great a sum, he sent good
money after bad till the bank had sunk
100000. Then came his other losses
amounting TO fully half as much and
he was unable to borrow or sell. 4
great amount of property came into
his possession from this bank, real es-
tate. merchandise, stock, cattle and
other articles, and he made strenuous
efforts to sell In this he failed and
for a long time his friends helped him
out. They reached their limit, how
ever, and he was thrown on his own re-
sources. He could not get money from
the east and was caught. Mellette has
no knowledge or suspicion of his where
