EXPEDITION
Although the tug Genevieve was
out but a little over thirty six hours
sine, notwithstanding no Item of ex
pense has been charged or claimed
for wages or reward for the hazard
ous services of her crew, the volun
teers accompanying Captain Ross
scorning the thought of compensa
tion, as published in the Work'er
yestetday morning, nevertheless
claims for her outfitting and for
her use have been presented against
the People’s Relief Committee
amounting in th aggregate to the
unbelievable um of $1131.17.
A relatively small portion of this
expense .-s represented by the claims
of local bucii'.cns concerns but it is
noticeable that in contrast with the
attitude of the men who donated
the'r services for undertaking the
hazards and toil ome hardships of
the relief voyage; these business
men appear not to have overlooked
to claim their sacred “profits'' in
full. The claims so certified by
Captain Ho:-s as being correct are
as follows: A Polc-t, $29.95, Cheap
John $22.25, A Wittenberg, $105.80
Lomen Bros. $4.00 Arctic Bakery.
$8.40. W. J. Rowe, Trail fer,
$10.00.
But the original claim filed by
the Alaska Lighterage Company,
Captain Rocs flatly refused to ac
cept or to consider to say nothing
of lending his approval to it.
The company submitted a revised
claim as published below, amount
ing to 344.77 but the Captain has
trimmed this down to $572.00 and
declines to cei tify as correct any of
the item in excess of that sum.
According to Captain Ross many
of the items claimed are utterly
absurd and in i.o wise chargeable
to the Relief Expedition.
The full statement is published
here in a spirit of fairness to all
concerned with no further comment
than r s Captain Ross himself states
that it is sufficient that every one
concerned have a satisfaction of his |
legitimate demands without unduly
coining a grasping pecuniary ad
vantage ou oft a misfortune.

SAYS PRESS BUREAU
LONDON. Nov. 14.—It L an
nounced by the Serbi m Press
Bureau in London that the econo
mic conditions in Serbia are de
plorable. The material help which
the Serbian goverrment is able to
give is far from being sufficient
and efficacious. Austvo-Hucgarians,
Germans and Bulgarians have
taken and carried away the whole
of this year’s harvest, which was
very abundant. The inhabitants
are being deprived of all kinds of
foodstuffs, so that most families
have only one loaf of bread per
week. Meat. lard, butter and
