 SUE FUR SEAlERS
Killed Female and Pup-Aiso K After Or. Jordon.

WASHINGTON. April 1.-The House committee appointed to in vestigate the conditions under which the seal herds of Alaska have been depleted today reported recommend ing that civil suit be brought against the Northern Commercial Company. the owners of the lease to recover damages for the slaughter of the herd and to secure the value of the young seal skins taken but not paid for and also for the damage done to the herd by the unscientific methods followed by the company agents.
 They also recommend that suit for $50O,O00 be brought against the bondsmen of the company for dam age to the herd. The bond is still alive, having never been discharged.
 The committee accused Dr. Jordon, of the Stanford University. of hav- ing used false Russian translations of conditions on the seal islands in or der that he could prove Russians kill ed females. The members of the committee claim that the, Russians never killed the female seal. but did kill the bulls which are menace to the herds.
 No charge was made against former Secretary of Commerce Nagle, al though charges were made early in the investigation that he had known of the conditions at the seal islands. but had refused to take any action looking to the bettering of the con- dittons.
 The information gained by the com mittee will be placed in the hapds of Attorney General McReynolds, who is expected to start suits against all the officials of the Northern Commercial Company. It is also expected here that indictments will be brought against those of the company who were in charge of the slaughter. of the seal and who killed the young and the females in violation of the law.
