PETERSON WINS
 DAMAGE SUIT
Buck Hoyt is Stuck $500 for Havina Him Arrested for Violatinq
 Non-existent Law.

|. The jury ill the district court this morning rendered verdict for $500 damages to Chris Peterson for false arrest and imprisonment. caused by Buck Hoyt, the Gulkana roadhouse keeper and saloon man. The jury were out for fl hours before they could come to an agreement. Some were for giving Peterson a large yer dict, and others were insistent that Hoyt, in causing the arrest, had not acted with malice.
 The suit grew out of the arrest of Peterson for keeping live fox in captivity which Hoyt thought was against the law. Hoyt offered Peter son $550 for the animal a few days before the arrest, but Peterson re- fused the offer, as he had already contracted 10 sell it to Thomas Aiken, of Fairbanks. who paid $100 down and was to have paid $1,4OO more for it. Bert Skinner also offered to buy the animal and would agree to pay $1,- 500 for it.
 The fox died the day after the dis pute. suddenly taking sick and re- fusing to eat it soon started on it's journey to fox heaven.
 Chris paid an Indian $450 for the fox and received $10O from Aiken, so he lost $350 besides being arrested. After his arrest it was found, by con- sulting the law, in the person of Dis trict Attorney Walker, that no law had been violated, so Peterson was discharged. He then demanded dam ages amounting to $5,10O, and the jury today salved his wounds by giv- ing him three bucks. which Buck Hoyt will have to pay.

MANY ID SPEAK
 .FOR R. B. BILL
Fifteen congressmen to Talk in Fa- vor of Bill, Six Against It-To
 Vote Next Month.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-Con- gressman Houston, chairman of the House Territories committee, opened the debate in the House today upon the Alaska railroad bill. According to the present plans, 15 members of congress will speak in favor of the bill, while six have indicated their in tention of speaking in opposition.
 The anti-government ownership forces will marshal all the strength possible, but it is almost foregone conclusion that the House will pass the bill.
 Congressman Houston made a strong plea for. the passage of the bill and stated that the measure, if passed, would give to the Pacific coast cheap coal; the navy would also get high grade steaming coal for small cost, thus saving millions of dollars now paid in freight to foreign steam CTS. The development of Alaska would go forward by leaps and bounds and the territory would soon have population of several millions, depending mostly upon imports from the states proper.
 It is expected that the vote on the Alaska railroad bill will be taken probably January 14th, when it will go to the Senate
