WASHINGTON, July la.-After secret
consideration of rharses mad by tole
rate Wlckersham of AlasKa tnat Attorney
General Wlckenham deliberately permitted
the statute of limitation! to run against j
agents of the Alaska syndicate, who de- j
frauded the government through perjury
to the extent of fTA.OflO, the house committee
on judiciary has determined to report fa
vorably a resolution of Inquiry offered by
tH-lfgate AVIekersham.
The resolution would call on the attorney
General to furnish the house with all docu
ments, affidavits and testimony In his pos
session relating to an affidavit submitted to
him more than a year ago and awern to
by If. J. Douglas, former auditor of the
Alaska syndicate. In IMS.
Delegate Wlckersham startled the com
mittee when In executive committee he
produced a copy of an affidavit relating
an alleged criminal act committed by
Captain D. H. Jarvla of the Alaskan syn
dicate, and formerly prominent tn the gov
ernment revenue cutter service, who com
mitted suicide In Seattle on June 22. the
day following the Introduction of the Wick
err ham resolution, tailing for the produc
tion of th papers In the case, and by
John If. Bullock of the John J. Besnor
Coal company of Nome.
Through connivance of these men. it was
charged that the government was de
frauded on coal contracts and that evi
dence to that effect waa permitted to re
main unacted upon In the attorney gen
eral's office for more than a year, until
the atatute of limitations expired last May.

Deleave Wlckersham furnished the com
mittee wfSh photographic copies of a let
ter of an attorney for the Alaska syndi
cate to D. !L Jarvls. admitting the ex
penditure of money to control government
witnesses In the Hasey murder trial In 19(.
wherein an agent of the Alaska syndicate
waa accused of murdering laborers em
ployed' by rival Interests during the con
struction of a railroad in Alaska.
A photograph of an expense account of

government witnesses and Jury men in
that connection, also was submitted to
th committee. This evidence. Delegate
Wlckersham declared, also Is In the pos
session of the attorney general. Delegate
Wlckersham told the judiciary committee
of the Douglas affidavit Involving; the
representatives of the Northwestern Com
mercial company, one of the Alaska syn
dicate concerns, and the Besnor Coal com
pany.
"On May Si. 1910." he said. "I aent to
Attorney General Wlckersham a copy of
the affidavit, calling his attention to the
fact that the government had been de
frauded of tSO.WO by perjury and a con
blnatlon of thee -two corporations in the
of coal to the government for mill
posts In Alaska.
-''I asked him to make an Investigation
and prosecute those persons for the crime
committed In that transaction. I received
a letter of acknowledgment May XL 1910.
and w had considerable further corre
spondence and on June 13, 1911. more than
year later, I received a letter from the
attorney general saying that th stat ate
of limitations had expired.

letter of the attorney general, waa read

""I read th last letter," continued Del
egate Wlckersham, "to show that the at
tomey general now says that the statute j
of limitations has run against the prose
cution of these men who committed per
jury and defrauded th government. They
submitted false affidavits to the go vera -N.
tnent and committed fraud In April and
'lay, 1908, and th statut of limitations
did not expire until May. 1911. I sent aU
th evidence to the attorney general a
year previous and he failed and refused
to prosecute these people for robbing the
treasury and he permitted th statut of
limitations to run In their favor."

IOWA FALLS, la.', July IS (Special.)
Deputy Game Warden 11. E. Jilartln of this
city has Just received the first report from
the Hungarian partrldfces placed In this
county last fall and early this spring un
der the direction of State Game Warden
Lincoln. Two pairs of there birds were
placed on the farm of Ab McWhlrter just
southwest of town and twenty-four young
birds were batched by the two pairs. The
young resemble buff cochin chickens when
young and are apparently well satisfied
with the environments of their adopted
home. Twenty-two pairs of these birds
were placed in various parts of Hardin
county and if the same ratio could be main
tained throughout the county it would mean
ever 300 young partridges, but such a ratio
Is hardly probable, although the game war
den hopes that these birds, with proper pro
tection, will be plentiful In th county in a
few years.
W. J. Bryan of Lincoln will address a
mans meeting at the First Methodist
church. Twentieth and Davenport streets.

Tske Off the Fa!
Where It Shows
Most women surfer much humullatlon
ana inconvenience, especially during
the hot summer montiis, because of
great quantities of fat. so located that,
no matter how they drees, everybody
sees that they are abnormal. This is
the season and the day of the slender
figure, and fat women are simply not
tolerated either In business or social
affairs Women may not know It. but
men when they see s fat woman pass
them on the street make all manner of
sympathetic remarks about her. They do
no mean to be unkind or to seem unmanly
but it is natural for a man to dislike fat
on a woman. Where fat shows the most
there Is where It must bo removed, and as
quickly as possible. Hot weather dreasea
seem to be made for the fat woman a mis
ery and the slender woman's delight.
They expose all the charms of women and
her ugllneas as well. Exercise ar.d diet
will not remove fat. This has been proved.

This hot weather is not the best shopping time. People shop because
they want things and them badly and they want them badly here this

Prudent buyers coming here will realize the economy of investing in a syphon refrigerator, in a model kitchen cab
inet, or in any of these furniture pieces. They may not need these now, but the wise will buy at these economy
prices. During the first half of the sale many have bought rugs; some did not need them yet and were getting
them for fall. The prices are so low they made sagacious ones purchase without hesitating. In the drapery
department, where delicate and artistic curtains, portieres and nets are lowered to ridiculous figures, the sale of
oool-looking pieces has been large. It will pay you to visit here this month; you are certain to find rare bargains.
