BRIEF ITEMS FROM ALL
. PARTS OF THE TERRITORY
EVENTS IN THE NORTH AS PORTRAYED IN THE
PRESS OF ALASKA *
Matthew “Gold Tooth” Mur
phy was shot and fatally
wounded by W. S. Meyers at
Anchorage last week, follow
ing a quarrel at a drinking
party on the evening before
the shooting took place. Prior
to the drinking bout the two
men had been close friends.
Both were old-timers of the
Territory. Meyers is over 60
years old and Murphy was 55.
Reindeer meat from Alaska
for the army is being consid
ered by Quartermaster Gen
eral Cheatham. In view of the
mounting cost of fresh beef
and the fact that either canned
or frozen reindeer meat appar
ently can be delivered to army
posts at less cost than beef,
the general said that he was
studying a proposal of adding
this meat to the stock of the
commissiaries.
A stove explosion in the gar
age of Warren Knapp, at First
and Hall streets, Fairbanks,
recently, resulted in a fire
which destroyed the garage
and a Star coupe which was
stored in it. The loss is estimat
ed at $1,100, partially covered
by insurance.
Word was received in Cor
dova recently to the effect that
12 tons of supplies will be
shipped from Kennecott to the
“Chick” Nelson copper prop
erty on the Chitistone, where
development work will start
on those claims with a crew of
ten men. The property is said
to have been bonded by the
Kennecott Copper Corporat
ion.
Caught in a fierce storm in
Malina Bay, Shelikoff Strait,
Mike Popinoff and John Ros
cov, Russian trappers, recently
lost their gasboat and several
weeks’ catch of fur. The gas
boat fought a southeasterly
gale until driven in snow,
and sleet, against the rugged
coast. The men swam ashore
and reached a settlement in an
exhausted condition. A salvage
boat failed to recover the
skins.
Pay dirt going 50 cents to the
pan and extending 80 feet
towards the surface from bed
rock, is reported to have been
found on Dome Creek, in the
Fairbanks district, by Theo
dore Rehn and his two part
ners. Never before in the dis
trict, according to oldtimers,
has pay extended through such
a wide stratum of gravel, and
the old expression “pay from
the grass roots down” may be
almost literally true on the
Dome property, as the pros
pectors are still driving their
drift tunnel upwards. The
ground is 200 feet deep where
they are working. They are
taking out a dump and a big
cleanup is expected in the
spring.
Negotiations are under way
for the the transference of the
Peterson Oil Association light
rig from the site now being
drilled to the holdings of C. J.
Lincke .adjoining Peterson on
the west. Mr. Peterson is pre
paring to bring in a standard
rig this spring and expects to
complete his tests during the
summer. California interests'
are negotiating with Lincke for
drilling his ground and it is
hoped to close the deal in time
to move the Peterson rig before
the snow goes. The geology
and reported seepages in the
Nelchina country indicates
that the strata extends more

Peterson, it promises to prove
one of the largest fields yet
discovered.
The engagement of Miss Ada
Arthurs, of Nome, and Noel
Wien, of the Wien Alaska Air
ways, was announced at Nome
recently.
Sluicebox lumber was used to
build a coffin for Martin Rob
inson, oldtimer of the Kouga
rok district, whose death oc
curred early in December; and
a dog team was used to trans
port the body from Kougarok
to Pilgrim Springs cemetery, a
distance of 60 miles. When
death came his friends had to
go 16 miles from the cabin to
get lumber for a coffin, using
old sluice boxes.
Taking over the canneries
and floating equipment of six
packing companies in Alaska,
the Pacific Salmon Corporat
ion of Ketchikan recently com
pleted the largest deal in the
history of the Alaska fishing
industry. The purchase in
cludes the Deep Sea Salmon
Co., Consolidated Canneries,
Sunny Point Packing Co., Gor
ham Packing Co., Franklin
Packing Co., and the Steve
Selig property. Six canneries
of the Consolidated, four each
of the Sunny Point and Frank
lin and one each of the Deep
Sea, Gorham and Steve Selig
are included in the new com
pany, with 17 plants and 204
vessels ranging from small
craft to large cannery tenders.
This deal gives the Pacific Sal
mon Corporation control of ap
proximately 35 per cent of the
Alaska salmon pack.
