WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-That the Department of Commerce has so man. ipulated the contract with the Fouke Company, of St. Louis, for dyeing and dressing the fur sealskins taken at the Pribilof Islands, that the Gov ernment each year suffers the loss of a tremendous amount of revenue, was the charge made yesterday by Henry w.

Asserting that the present plan ere ates monopoly, Elliott stated that it is largely responsible for the in creased prices on the fur. Delegate Dan Sutherland in his testimony be- fore the Committee, charged also that in issuing certain orders and regulations covering the fisheries of Alaska the Department of Commerce had acted in the interest of the 'fish trust which is operating the canneries of Alaska.
