Sutherland.
tspreIAL e e rELEeaAM1

WASHINGTON, D. CT, Jan. 10
Congressman Sutherland has taken
up with the postofice department an
Improvement in the mail service be-
tween Fleetwood and SllmersviLle, 50
that mail from Baltimore and Ohio
points may be received ait Summers
willie, more promptly. The matter
was abandoned once by the depart
ment on account of bad roads, but
Mr.. Sutherland persisted till he had
it taken up again and as soon as
practicable an inspector will make
la further investigation with a view
to improvement of the service.
Mr. Sutherland has requested the
establishment of a mail route be-
tween Buckhannon and Gawthrop.
He has also been notified that pur~
suant to his request bids have been
asked for carrying the mail between
Queens, Upsnur county and Cubana,
Randolph county. Better connection
for mail between the Norfolk and
! Western railroad and the North
Fork branch is also requested by
Mr.. Sutherland. The connection at
North Fork is such now that persons
on the branch get their mail twenty
four hours late and the matter of i'm
providing the services has been refer
red to inspectors for report.

B. Elkins, of West Virginia; David
stanford University; George A.
Clark, DR.. Barton w. Everman, John
Stanley Brown and a host of others
are alleged in these reports to have
been connected with the alleged
conspiracy which it is claimed re-
suited in the Illegal slaughter of seals
and the doing Of the government Out
of millions.
George Nj. Bowers is alleged to
have guilty knowledge of unlawfui
taking of yearling sealskfns between.
! 1895 and 1912. Charles H. Town
send, director of the New YORK
AQUARIUM, is said to have been pres
lent at a remarkable meeting IN

Bowers and Secretary Nagel, and to
| have voted as aunt" with DIR. Jor-
ldan. DIR. Eyermaas Walter l.. Lem bs-
ky. Commissioner Bowers, and 9th
! ers to renew the lease of the North
American Commercial Company,
which lease, it is charged, was Sc
cured in the first place from Secre-
ltary Window by fraud. The estate
| OF the late d. o. Mills, of New York,
4 is alleged to have been one of the
sureties with the late Senator Ste
phen b. Elkins, of West Virginia, on
/ $500, 900 bondnOfJ the companyy me
report also charges that Isaac Lie
hes, Lloyd Tevis, and d. o. Mills com
bined with Stephen B. Elktns and
/ George R. Jingle to deceive William
Window, Secretary of the Treasury,
in order to gain from him the lease
of the seal islands of Alaska for
period of twenty years, ending May
Ii, 1910.
1t is also alleged by Messrs. Elliott
and Gallagher that a damage from
! SIS, OOO, 900. to S25. 100000 was done
to the herd by the alleged slaughter
of seals, that the profits of the North
| American Commercial Company un-
der it's lease were $4,976,574 net,
and that the net loss of the govern
ment under this lease was $1,491,-
500. It is alleged in the report that
the seal islands were so managed un-
der the direction of government oh1c-
ifals as to be a constant expense to
| the government, and that ever since
1880 the seal rookeries have been
looted.
Says Elliott in his report: "The
story of how United States Commits
sioner of Fisheries George NJ. Bow
ers, used every arm of his office to
secure the renewal of this lease for
/ his patrons, is one of the most re-
markable exhibitions, self-confessed,
of arrogant official malfeasance, that
has ever been put into sworn testi-
Since the filing of these reports de-
malls have been promptly made by
Mr.. Nagel and others. Nagel declares
that the whole sensational story is
false, and that the charges were once
| Investigated and disproved. Friends
of the late Senator Elkins and of
Commissioner Bowers are not inclin-
| ed to believe any of the accusations
made against them by the reports of
