The return of the $75 imposed as a fine by Judge Cahalan on eX-Sheriff Higdon and remitted by Governor Co- mer is being held up by John c. Brad ley, clerk of the criminal court, on the grounds that d legal remission cannot be made unless the fact is advertised two weeks in advance.
 The clerk states that the remission of the fine was advertised in only two issues of a weekly paper and it is probable that the matter will have to be brought into the courts for final settlement.

FAVORABLE REPORT
 ON PEARY'S CLAIMS
Explorer Will Be Properly Re
 warded By Congress
REPORT OF MINORITY
Representative Roberts Says In Minor fty Report That Geographical so- ciety Should Have settled
 Doubts in Matter

Washington. January 21.-That Capt Robert E. Peary came within 1.6 miles Of the north pole-near enough 10 estab- fish his claim of having been at the ex- act spot-is the decision of the House committee on naval affairs which has been considering the bill to retire Captain Peary with the rank of rear admiral. A majority of the committee recommended that Peary be retired as rear admiral. A minority report submitted by Repre- sentative Roberts of Massachusetts does not question Captain Pearys perform anee, but arraigns the National Geo. graphic soeiety's committee, which, he claims, announced it's findings oDly after a cursory examination of Peary's proofs.
 Referring to the chart prepared within the last few weeks showing Peary's po- sition at the pole, MT. Roberts in his mi- ncrity report said:
 Had such chart been worked out and given 10 the world by the committee of the Geographical society, the controversy that has ragged throughout the country would have ended then and there.
 Assuming the astronomical observa- tions upon which this chart is believed to have been made by Captain Peary. as he states they were made, and there is noth- ing in evidence to the contrary, l am forced to the conclusion that Captain Peary was within very short distance Of the pole, sufficiently near to warrant the claim that he reached the pole
 The majority report recommended the passage of the Hale-Bates bill, giving Teary the thanks of Congress and creat- ing him rear admiral on the retired list.
 A fight is certain to develop in the House over the proposed legislation Representative Macon of Arkansas has indicated that he would oppose it's pas sage on the floor. The report pointed out that Peary was acting under orders from the navy department when he made the polar dash The charges that his expedi- tion was a private one are not borne out, the report stated, by the facts disclosed fin the committees hearings.
 When leaving for his polar trip, reads the report, the acting secretary of the navy wrote him that he was granted this leave of absence for Arctic explorations because he was believed to be better equipped than any other person in the country to undertake such work, and adds and the attainment of the pole should be your main object. Our national pride is involved in the undertaking This de- partment expects you will accomplish your purpose and bring further distinc- tion to service of illustrious traditions" The committee made the point also that Captain Peary's trip was taken with the express Endorsement of his con- mander-in-chief. President Roosevelt.
