Alaska, known to the Indians as Al-ak-shak, meaning “A great Country,” and to the civilized world as Russian America, had been dis- covered by an expedition sent out under Vitus Bering, Danish navi- gator, by Russia in 1741, «As early as 1859 official communica- tions passed between the United States and Russia concerning the purchase of Russian America. Rus- sia was desirious of parting with the territory, and the fishing and trading interests doing business throughout the great northern country, favored the proposed change of sovereignty. Defininte Steps in 1867 It was not until 1867, however, that definite steps were taken to- ward the transfer, In March of that year the Russian Minister at ‘Washington, D. C., reopened ne- gotiations and on March 23, Wil- liam H. Seward, Secretary of State in President Andrew John- son's cabinet, made an offer of $7,200000 for Russian America, Late in the night of March 29, the minister communicated the Czar's acceptance of the cffer. So anxious was Secretary Seward to consummate the purchase, that he did not want to wait until regu- lar business hours the next day to conclude the deal. At his in- treaty by him And the Russian minister took place at 4 o'clock in the morning of March 30. The treaty was later ratified by the United States Senate, and the official transfer of the terri- tory took place at Sitka, with the lowering of the Russian flag and the raising of the United States flag, the following October 18. e SEVEN KILLED BY TORNADOES MONTGOMERY, Alabama, March 28.—Seven persons were killed Sun- day as a second series of torna- does withina week dippéd into Central Alabama and Western Georgia.
