10 SEARCH FOB TWO LOST IN
i * 1
PETERSON GOES TO LOOK FOR SHIES UNO ROSSEl
The launch Peterson was yesterday despatched to join
in the search for Billy Russell and Koscoe States, the two
men for whom Juneau has been looking since the wreck of
the Fox some three weeks ago near Five Finger light. The
men were of the crew of the Fox, and when the craft be
came disabled they left in a small boat to get assistance.
Those left on the Fox were rescued and the Fox herself
towed to Juneau, but neither States or Russell have been
seen, although the search has been carried on ever since
with every available craft at Juneau.
Taku inlet aud the waters between Five Fingers and
Juneau have been sailed over repeatedly, but still hope is
not entirely giveu up.
Some express fear that they have been dealt with foul
ly by the Indians in the neighborhood, but in that case the
boat at least would be recovered. The Peterson will be
gone for an indefinite time and in the meantime some other
means of communication with Fort Seward will have to be
resorted to.

ing is the program prepared:
