Mountaineers Reporting Success Say
Peak Is 20.50O Feet Hijrh They
Recount HolsMn? Old Glory
at Highest Point.
FAIRBANKS. April 13. The Fair
banks Mount McKinley expedition, said
yy them to have reached the summit of
the peak, assert that the party
started to follow the route alleged to
have been taken by Dr. Frederick A.
1ook and were obliged to abandon it
s Impassable. Thomas Lloyd, leader
of the expedition, says no traces of
"ook's camps were found, and he de
clares the doctor's story of the four
day ascent a pure myth.
Lloyd placed his crude notes of the
.Journey in the hands of a committee of
the 'Order of Pioneers of Alaska, who
will arrange for publication of the
story. The party took photographs of
the highest point reached and of point
all along the trail. They alBo estab
lished the trail so well, they say, that
It can be followed by other parties
next Summer. On one stretch of the
trail eight miles long the explorers re
port working two weeks. On one high
point a flagstaff 14 feet tall was
erected, firmly buttressed by rocks.
The work done by the Fairbanks men
can be easily verified, they report.
Height 20,500 Feet.
Their measurement places the height
rtf the mountain at 20,-iOO feet. Ten
men were in the party that left Fair
banks with dog teams in December.'
It was the theory of the leaders that
the ascent would be less dangerous
In the early Spring than later, when
the snow begins to melt.
The expedition, on reaching t he
base of the mountain, went into camp,
waited for better weather and planned
the ascent. All were familiar with the
great mountain and its habits. None
of the men has scientific education
and they took no special apparatus
exoept cameras and a barometer. They
were equipped as for prospecting, and
traveled as light as possible, and with
the food supply of the Alaska miner.
When the ascent was begun, they re
fount, the first camp was made at the
Ulno of the willows, the second at 2900
feet, the third at 10.000 feet, the fourth
B.t 14,000 feet, and from this camp, they
.say, the dash to the top was made.
;Four dogs went to the third camp and
lone to the fourth. Snow&hoes were
hised most of the way and much time
f was consumed in carrying supplies to
(the fourth camp, travol over the steep
Ice compelling light loads and several
ftrlps. In some places crevasses were
crossed on bridges' of poles brought
llrom the timbered slopes below.
Cook's Pictures. Not Natural.
The party did not set out to dis
prove fr. Cook's story, but to climb
the mountain. They assert that they
found the summits utterly unlike those
pictured in the doctor's book. On the
rock peak they recount leaving an
American flag flying 6 by 12 feet,
attached to a 14-foot staff with a four
inch butt. The pole was held firmly
In place by rocks piled about the base
and by guy ropes. The flag was vis
ible for a long distance oti the north
side of the mountain. The building
of the monument about the flag was
difficult because of the rarif led at
mosphere. The view from the summit
was obscured by clouds at the lower
levels.
The snow was generally firm and th
crevasses filled with snow and easy to
cross except 1n a few instances. Later
In the season avalanches and treach
erous crevasses must be guarded
against.
I'nnametl Peuk Seen.
The explorers say they discovered a
magnificent unnamed peak 16.000 feet
tall, and also a new pass through the
mountain range which shortens the
distance to the coast 75 miles. The
pass is flanked by majestic perpendic
ular walls.
Daniel Patterson. TV. P. Taylor and
Cha rles McGonnigle remained at Ka
tishna and only Lloyd came in. The
Pioneers' committee took steps to ver?
ify Lloyd's story before stamping it
as genuine, and even now are disin
clined to surrender his notes, though
satisfied that they prove the story
amply. The return of Lloyd from the
mountain in nine days was due to the
excellence of the trail made by the
pa rty.
PICTURES BRING PROFIT
Vrrkos Treasure. Costing: $4 7,000.
Sold for S3 17.0(10 at Auction.
NKW YORK, April 13. There have
Toen many surprises for art experts in

tinuation of the art sale. A New York

representing an American collector,
whose name was withheld, paid
for MaeMoniiies' "Bacchante." These
were the highest prices paid of the
il.iy. Other treasures were bid In at
bararaln prices. Total sales for the day
were $1 IS. 139. making the receipts of
the auction to date J2.1S2.320.
Many small losses. however. are
balanced by the profit netted on three
small pictures which brought J31 7.400
at auction. They were purchased by
the collector for $47,000. according to
a statement today by a French expert.
The Franz Hals "Portrait of a Wo

$12,000; the Rembrandt "Portrait of a
Rabbi" was secured for $10,000. and

Paper Intimates.
DENVER, Am-fl 13. Disappointment
amounting to criticism is expressed in
Denver at the clause In the will of the
late Thomas F. . Walsh, naming Wash
ington. D. C, as his home. The Denver
Times says:
"Until the will of Mr. Walsh was filed
for probate nobody here or elsewhere
doubted that Mr. Walsh's real residence
was in Colorado. It was clearly under
stood that he would be a candidate for
the United States Senate, representing
Colorado. But the probation of the will
discloses that on January 10, only 90
days ago. he in the most formal manner,
declared Washington to be his residence
and Colorado but a place of convenience
in which to spend a part of the year.
"This question is Important only in the
amount of Inheritance tax the estate of
Thomas F. Walsh will yield to Colorado."
The Denver Post declares that the
"dispute that arose on the day following
the death of Thomas F. Walsh as to the
amount of the inheritance tax that the
State of Colorado will receive from his
estate has already assumed the magni
tude of threatened litigation."

cording to the petition which the Amer
ican Security & Trust Company, his
executor, filed today for the probate of
his will.
Only the assessed valuation of the
real estate is given. This places the
realty holdings "in Washington at
$1,519,279, but a conservative estimate
of Its market value would be about
$2,500,000.
Stocks and bonds were held by Mr.
Walsh to the extent of $3,200,000 and
he had on deposit in -local banks $800,

ST. PETERSBURG-. Monday, March'
28. A sharp communication has been
addressed to the rectionary holy synod
by the Ministry of the Imperial Court
apropos of the practice of the mem
bers of the clergy, from archbishops
down to humble village priests of mix
ing politics with religion when called
uuon to greet the- Emperor in their
spiritual lapacity.
In his journeys about Russia, the
Emperor is customarily met at ail halts
by the local clergy, who celebrate a
short service, and his patience is said
to have been repeatedly tried -by their
admonishments on the proper adminis
tration of the realm, usually couched
In reference to the happy days before
the constitution, and prayerful allu
sions to the baneful enemies of the
autocracy.
The synod is now instructed to see
that in future priests in their greet
ings to the Emperor 'make no refer
ence to political affairs, nor presume
to pass upon matters concerning the
temporal administration of the coun

Advice Concerning Stomach
Troubles and How to
Remedy Them
Do not neglect indigestion which
leads to all sorts of ills and complica
tions. An eminent doctor once said
that ninety-five per cent of all the ills
of the human body have their origin in
a disordered stomach
A physician who made a specialty of
ptomach troubles, particularly dyspep
sia, after years of study perfected the
formula from which Rexall Dyspepsia
Tablets are made.
Our experience with Rexall Dyspepsia
Tablets leads us to believe them to be
the greatest remedy known for the re
lief of acute indigestion' and chronic
dyspepsia. Their Ingredients are sooth
ing and healing to the Inflamed mem
branes of the stomach. They are rich
in pepsin, one of the greatest digestive
aids known to medicine. The relief
they afford is almost immediate. Their
use with persistency and regularity for
a short time brings about a cessation
of the pains caused by stomach dis
orders. Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets will insure
healthy appetite, aid digestion and pro
mote nutrition. As evidence of our sin
cere faith in Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets,
we ask you to try them at our risk. If
they do not give you entire satisfaction,
we will return you the money you paid
us for them, without question or
