RE: Alaska and Russian deal!?
The price was $7,2 in 1867, this would convert to $123,170071 in 2015.

I seem to recall there was also a deal with Russia made during the CW already for a trans-Pacific cable that had never realized/been finished, the trans-Atlantic did instead. But AFAIremember it was the prelude for the Alaska purchase.
