HUNDREDS.0F FOX
 SHIPPED TO EAST

The largest fox purchase said to have ever been consumated in this section of the territory, took place in the Cook Inlet district few days ago when MT. Morrison, of Milligan and Morrison, big fox men of Prince Edward Island, on the East coast of Canada, bought from the Williamson fox ranch at Kasilof, and other ranchers in that section, 240 foxes. It is stated that the sum paid for the fox was $500 per pair.
 It is understood that MT. Morri- son endeavored to purchase more but was unable to do so at that time. He was in this district last season and bought then, large number of fox from the ranch of Waller and Winsor. The William son ranch alone supplied him with 189 fox of the total amount, in the deal last week.
 Mir. Morrison left Seldovia on the last sailing south of the steamer 'Redondo. The fox are being shipped to the Atlantic coast farm.
