 Several of the representatives in Con- gross, accused of trading their votes, have waxed righteously indignant at the correspondents making the charge.

His sacred honor has been assailed and blood itself would hardly wipe out the stain. Generally. however. 1t is found after the votes have been counted that the charges of the cnrre- spondents were abundantly justified.

 A telescopic pole is to be fitted to the mast which. when extended. will reach an elevation of 200 feet. This is for communication between the ship and parties on shore by wireless telegra- phy. Captain Bernier thinks by this means it will be possible for him to maintain communication with Dawson City. Alaska. during the first winter in the ice. and the second year he will endeavor to communicate with the world by wireless telegraphy to either Dawson City or Hammerfest, which latter port will then be 1.200 miles dis tant.
 For the final dash to the pole, which Captain Bernier will make across the ice, he intends to use two specially de signed five horsepower motor cars each capable of holding 2.0OO pounds The motors are so designed that if the exigency arises they can be quickly converted into boats. each holding sev eral persons.
