committed case of Karl Anderson.
In the afternoon they reported a
true bill. Court was convened at
3:30 P. M. and the defendant at
raigned. pleading not guilty to the
indictment. Judge Tucker set the
hearing of the case for ten o'clock '
this morning do dining tv> accede to
the request o the attorney for the
defendant to postpone the case un
til two o’clo. • in th > afternoon
It's a hard luck story that is to
he written up reciting the prelimin
ary portion of the All Alaska
Sweepstakes although all's well that
ends well. The first team to be
located yesterday was Kjegstead,
the native mail carrier bringing
word that the Kjegstead had found
shelter at Sprues creek in a native
Igloo. He laid met with tough luck
shortly aft. r leaving Solomon, with
one injured deg in the sleigh and a
blinding blizzard blowing. Some
distance out his tug line broke and
six lead dogs also broke away. He
lias not found them since He after
much difficulty found his way to a
native hut where he stayed during
the fierce storm that rattled along
the coast for the past three days.
This news made all still more an
xious concerning the whereabouts of
the other teams, but anxiety was re
moved on their arrival at Council
shortly after midday, all arriving
at approximately the same time,
having left Topkok yesterday morn
ing where they had stayed. The
Kennel Club put it up to the racers
to continue or abandon the rate and
all three decided to proceed and
they are proceeding the dogs being
in fairish shape. Yesterday addi
tional food was sent to tlie stations
along the line, Fred Ayer leaving
with over 150 pounds of meat and
bread. It was reported that sup
plies were diminishing at the way
stations and would have to be re
plenished by reason of tlie delay in
the race. The arrivals of these
teams at Council assuredly relieved
many who feared that the nuishers
got lost. ’ They had however re
mained with Nick Christensen at
Topkok during which time they
were there the severity ot the
weather prevented any possible con
tinuance of the race.
Delzene arrived at Fairhaven
at 9:15 p. m. and Seppala arrived
at the same place at 7:49 p. m.
and both were still resting when we
go to press.
The last report from Anderson
show that lie arrived at Boston at
4:C0.p. m. and left at 10:;’.0 p. m.
