BRIEF AIMS FROM ALL
PARTS OF THE TERRITORY
EVENTS IN THE NORTH AS PORTRAYED IN THE
PRESS OF ALASKA
John L. White, who is await
ing trial oil the charge of
shooting Bobby Morris at 01
nes last spring, has been re
leased on bonds of $20,000
furnished by a Baltimore com
pany. White has gone back to
Olnes to look after his busi
ness interests.
Damages in the sum of $8,
000 were awarded to Margaret
Sutton, a 15-year-old Indian
girl in Judge Neterer's court
in Seattle recently, for injuries
received when she was attack
ed by two negro waiters on the
steamship Admiral Evans,
while enroute from Alaska to
Seattle a year ago. Dotson and
Brown, who were convicted of
the assault, were sentenced to
life imprisonment at McNeill
Island.
An accident resulting in two
deaths occurred at Hoonah re
cently when Andrew Fulton,
an Indian, became entangled
in a winch on his fishing boat
while lowering a dory. He
suffered internal injuries from
which he died within a few
minutes. His wife, who was al
so on the boat, went to his
rescue and was also fatally in
jured, her thigh being crush
ed and internal injuries sus
tained.
H. Horn, superintendent of
tracks, bridges and buildings
of the Alaska railroad, has
been named by Noel W. Smith,
assistant to the Secretary of
Interior to be acting general
manager of the railroad with
all powers hitherto enjoyed by
Mr. Smith during his incumb
ency. The appointment be
came effective November 1,
and will continue during the
absence of Mr. Smith in Wash
ington, where he will make
his report to the Secretary of
the Interior.
A severe windstorm visited
Kanatak about October 9th,
razing buildings and tearing
up sidewalks and generally
wrecking havoc. The greatest
damage Was done to Brad's
restaurant, which was blown
over and completely demolish
ed. Several other houses were
blown down. The storm ap
proached cyclonic proportions
at times, and fears were en
tertained for the remainder of
the town.
A Derlo, a rancher living
five miles out of Anchorage on
the Eagle road, returned to his
home recently to find it burned
to the ground. The loss is es
timated at $1,500 with no in
surance. The cause is not
known.
Recent reports from Seldovia
are to the effect that unusual
ly cold weather has prevailed
in that section recently, and
that Seldovia Bay was filled
with floating ice. It is said
that as far back as memory
recalls never have the resi
dents of that section seen so
much ice on the bay before.
Edward Johnson, known as
“Frozenfoot” arrived in Jun
eau recently from the south
after an absence of about two
years. When Edward departed
from Juneau about two years
ago he did not herald his de
parture from the housetops.
He just went. At that time
there was a warrant out for
his arrest on the charge of
• moonshining and that warrant
; was still out when he returned,
and was served the morning
‘after his arrival, with the re
sult that he is now confined in
the federal jail in default of
$1,500 bond.
The Standard Oil Company’s
well at Cold Bay came very
nearly being a failure, accord
ing to C. C. Tousley, who re
cently arrived in Anchorage
from the Cold Bay district,
where he has been living for
the past two years. “All re
ports of tardiness with respect
to the Standard drilling,” said
Mr. Tousley, “may be charged
against an accident which
came near causing the drillers
to lose the well when at the
1600-foot point. In stringing
the 10-inch casing it slipped
form the hooks, plunging to
the bottom of the hole, break
ing twenty feet off each end.
The long portion of the casing
was recovered, but it was nec
essary to drill through the 20
feet of iron remaining in the
bottom of the hole.”
