Deadly Weapon
Alleged Teller
Marshal Thomas Gaffney re
turned to Nome last evening
from Teller with a native pris
oner named Nick Evan, charged
in a complaint with assault with
a dangerous weapon by Johnnie
Read at Teller. It appears from
evidence introduced before the
United States Commissioner at
Teller,that he was running amuck
around Teller with an ax looking
for John Read, whose cabin Nick
is alleged went to but was barr
ed from entering by some of Mr.
Read’s friends. The commission
er after hearing evidence in the
case decided to bind him over to |
the grand jury.
i
Mr. Gaffney also conveyed the'
news that the town of Teller was.
a thriving center due to the fact I
that gold and tin miners were
having a very successful season, j
He further said the natives did
well at fishing this season.
