A Dawsonlte who an ived la the city
last night, and who was on the boat at
the time of the arrest of "Jack" Mc
Donald in Whitehorse. in speaking lo
The Alaskan said: "McDonald ran |a
jewelry store in Dawson, and he did a
fairly good business. For the past few
months he has been selling out; he was
an expert engraver and I never knew
him much inclined to lead a fast life.
Kincaid was about 38 years of ago; he
came in ten years ago. He was an ex
cellent carpenter and was in charge of
the government carpenter work.
When the governor's house burned
last winter it was given out that the
. r
electric wires in the bouse bad caused
it, Kincaid drank some and ran
around with the dance bail women
more or less. Dick Hall was a book*
keeper in the M. & N. dance hall and
saloon, and he was a roan about forty
years of age.
It is my opinion that if the authori
ties have the right men they were
given their clues in the first plsce by
darce ball women. In the M. & N. sa
loon there were forty girls employed
and the men arrested mixed pretty
generally with all of the girls, heDce
jealousy is, doubtless, at the bottom of
it.
