It was a great many years ago-to be more exact, around 1S67-that the great country of Russia found herself sadly in need of a pinch of change, Whether her men of diplomatic ten dencies had been sitting in too often, or whatever the cause, does not con- cern this story. The question at this time was where to raise some seven millions of dollars. Then, just as at the present time, kittenish glances were cast toward Uncle Sam, and then, United States was willing to make a small loan provided any sort of se- curity could be put up and which would not cause Uncle Samuel to be- come the laughing stock of the world. Russia went over her marbles and Barlow knives and the like, and was almost in despair, when one of her bright wits attached to the diplomatic service, timidly suggested, ''Why not
 
 called Alaskan"
 The Russians promptly rejected the suggestion and all but shot it's author, believing to make so silly a tender might make bad friends of the United States and perhaps cause war. How ever the idea had an element of hu- nor about it, which saved it's life, and bye-and-bye they commenced to con- sider it bit It was then that it's au- thor, not, having been shot as planned clipped in with an added argument. He said: Tell 'em it has lots of fur and gold and" he was going to add fish," but visions of a firing squad loomed up and he left that off. His bit of unconscious humor raised a laugh that echoed around the world in diplomatic circles, and at one time the joke, as everybody then considered it, was thought to be so good that it had the mother-in-law joke backed in the coal bin hollerin' for help.
 Russia got her seven millions, the go-between got the s2OO,0OO for mak ing the loan, which Uncle Sam paid to for the chance to loan the money and got-Alaska.
 The one-time sayings of clever wit, long ago proved reality. Alaska has produced millions of dollars worth of gold, and will continue pro-

seemed to be a heavy overhead for doing business--only the paltry sum of twenty-eight million dollars was paid into the National Treasury as the Governments share of that one 1 fur.
 | The records of the Government also show that during the time the com. pany held this concession, they either owned or had under charter, ninety three vessels which were engaged in pelagic sealing (sealing off the three mile limit.) The captain and crews of these boats were mostly hired on commission basis, with no other re- striction on the taking of female and pup seals than their own conscience The Government has no record of the number of seals taken by these nine ty-three boats, but it seems a safe guess that they were not losing money
 In addition to these boats engaged in pelagic sealing our little brown brothers of Nippon were also engaged in sealing in American waters on an extensive scale, as evidenced by the captured and condemned Japanese boats lying in the harbor at Unalaska and elsewhere along the Aleutian isl ands.
 Because of greed the immense seal herds that once existed in Alaska are today practically exterminated
 Professional Trappers Enter.
 Alaska being so rich in mineral at- tracted most men to that industry, and only small number engaged in any other undertaking. A small num- Der of professional trappers entered the field, then many of the prospec- tors trapped awhile in winter. Not content to Outwit the furbearer by catching them in traps and deadfalls, poison was resorted to almost alto gether by the white men, instead of the heavy and cumbersome traps, more difficult to transport and care for. commercial companies and so-called drug stores sold poison (strychnine mostly) almost by the ton.

 The details as to the value of Alas ka's fish have been so carefully guard ed it is unlikely that the totals will ever be known by the public, and if so the sum would be so vast that the would be many times the millions pro- duced by gold.

 A commercial company, who had their offices in San Francisco, awoke to the possibilities of the fur seal and secured monopoly on sealing, and which they held up to a few years ago. Up to the time this company lost their hold on the sealing, the Government records show that seal belts to the value in round numbers of four hun dred and forty-four million dollars were taken.

Announcement that the stockholders

Several stockholders criticized the
methods of the company'S financing,
declaring that bankers get the cream
and the SKINNED milk is left for the
stockholders. A suggestion that the
shareholders be given an opportunity
10 subscribe to the company'S Securi-
ties before they so to the bankers was
not acted upon.

Samuel Rea presided for the last
time as president, marking the end OF
a 12-year tenure of office. He will re-
tire next September under the com
pany's pension plan, after 54 years

James p. Kohler, Brooklyn, n. Y,
lawyer, led the attack on financing
methods. He cited high bank earn
ings and real estate booms, contrast
ing them with the earnings of the

road stockholders. He moved the APP
pointment of a committee to investi-
gate poor earnings" which was re-
ferred to the board of directors. Mr..
Kohler was reinforced by A. S. Hay
ward, Trenton, n. j., who said that
outside financing is milking this rail
road of the cream of it's earnings and
leaving the skim milk for the stock
holders" Mr.. Hayward suggested the
stockholders be allowed to subscribe
10 new securities before negotiating
through the banks.
Scores Abnormal Financing.
Outside financing in the last six
years has cost the Pennsylvania

Trenton man said. This was dis
puted, however. by President Rea.
Before calling for business, Presi-
dent Rea delivered his farewell ad-
dress to the stockholders, telling of
the progress of the Pennsylvania dur
ing is term of office. "Wasteful and
hostile legislation" was criticized by
the chief executive. He commended
