Sen. Stevens Paid Only $130,000?

An interesting note from Senator Ted Stevens has emerged, stating that he "personally paid over $130,000" for the renovations that may have led to his house being raided by the FBI.
So why is this figure significant?
As the Anchorage Daily News points out, the carpentry alone was more than $100,000. In addition, there was a contractor who "raised" the house and built the foundation. There was also an "earth-moving" contractor who "prepared the ground." And on top of it all, there was "everything from design to plumbing and electric to a new roof."
The numbers don't add up. And if the money didn't come from Senator Stevens, then where did it come from?
