 SUIT BASED ON
 HEARSAY ONLY
Former Senator Says that Wife Pursues Him for
 Political Reasons

SPOKANE, Wash, June 30. - Goaded by cross examination, for mere United States Senator c. c. Dill admitted in his divorce trial that he had never seen evidence to support his charges that his wife, the former General Rosalie Jones was "a filthy housekeeper" and that she buried dead dogs in the back yard of their palatial Spokane home.
 Details of his complaint, said MT Dill, were based on information sup piled by servants and friends. He explained that he had not lived with his wife since 1883 and that it was after that date that his friends advised him that her home was filthy, that she dressed disrep- utably, and that she told friends and others that Dill was drinking like fish"
 Pressed for the explicit reasons behind his divorce action, Dill re- piled that his wife was pursuing him with studied plans to change him and his political ideals and be- liefs," and that he would not coun- teenance such interference.

|MUSKOX TREK TO |NUNIvAK STARTS
 DAY AFTER 4TH
Fairbanks Enters Protest, But Safety of Valuable
 Animals First Concern

Transfer of the muskox herd from Fairbanks to Nunivak Island will be started on July 5, according to present plans, Frank Dufresne, Executive Officer of the Alaska Game Commission, said today. Pro- test had been made to the Biologi- cal Survey by the Fairbanks Cham Der of Commerce and the Tanana Valley Sportsmen's AS ocia t. 0 n against transferring all the animals, a total of 27, he said but the Sur vey officials felt that due to the large investment in the animals, it would be wiser to send them to Nunivak where they will be safe from predatory animals.
 The muskox, which were brought from the Danish government, are valued at from $1000 to $500 apiece. In the Big Delta area where the Fairbanks people wanted them placed, there are already buffalo and the two do not get along well together, Dufresne said. In fact, he said, several of the young muskox were killed near Fairbanks as the result of charging bears. On Nuni- yak Island, they will be by them selves and are expected to multiply rapidly so that some of them may be brought back to the mainland especially along the Arctic coast their original habitat.
 The Fairbanks interests felt transfer of the muskox was depriv- ing them of an outstanding tourist attraction. the officer stated.
