, Tv(f incipient biases originating
1 'he other night tend to bring to
mind the necessity of using the ut- j
meat caution to prevent a disastrous
: conflagration. Business places, as
weil as householders, should take f
extra precautions, due to the fact;
; that the permanent water supply of j
the town is not yet installed, thus!
eliminating water as a possible
i means of quenching the flames.
While tUe Pioneer does not intend
j to boost any particular kind of fire
: extinguishers available, yet it takes;
; occasion to urge residents to supply
j themselves, at once, with some fire-J
j fighting apparatus, 'us a guard
; against fire.
This paper i3 not posing as an
j alarmist in fire matters, bur it is
. apparent to uU that we sirs ::i,I pre

FEARFUL TRAGEDY
AT WHITEHORSE
Details of the terrible tragedy
which recently occurred at White
horse, Yukon Territory, in which
four victims met death at the hands
of one Gagoff, are told in 'a recent;
issue of the Whitehorse Star, as i'ol-1
lows: j
The coroner's Jury empaneled to
inquire Into the death of Henry
Cook. which occurred at the hospital
last Thursday night, returned a ver
dict to the effect that deceased had
come to his dea Ji from gunshot;
wounds inflicted by Alex Gagoff, the
shooting taking place at a point ou
or mar the railroad two and three
quarters mile? south of Whitehorse,
at about 1 o'clock p. m. of Thurs
iay, September 30. The members of j
the jury were Robert Loife, C. H.
Johnston,- W. A. Puckett, J. W. Wil- j
son, W. W. Dickinson, Joe Clifton. 1
’.'aptain Bell acted as coroner.
Tlie jury empaneled to investigate
he death of Pat Kinslow, George
sue and Tom Bokonich, killed at
ho same time Cook was shot, mon
ion of which, with the names of I .i
.jryftun, was made la3t week, rc
urned a verdict similar to the sec
ind one, except that the crime was
lot imputed to Gagoff. On the
trength of the second verdict, hov.
ver. Gagoff wa,i; arraigned Monday
Horning before Police Magistrate 1
’aylor for preliminary heart
hen the evidence adduced was
iTactically the same as reported in |
onnection with the stories in last |
leek's paper. While Gagoff, on his I
rrival in town after the murder of B
he three men and mortal wound.ng
f the fourth, 'said at various times
,nd in the presence of F. E. L site.
1. G, Macpherson. C. Racine and
fuel's .that lie likd killed three men,
he most convicting evideri’e i gainst |
lim was that of R. B. Hyatt, to 1
rhom Gagoff gave the names of . J
hree of those killed by him, Kins,
oW. Dane p.nd Bokonich.
Mrs. O’Connor acted as interpre
er and translated in Russian to the
irisoner tile evidence of the various
witnesses, but he, while listening
dosely to what was taking place, did
lot ask any questions, neither did
ie appear to be much concerned, al
hough there was no doubt but that
te fully realized the enormity of his
irime. Tile only reason It,, gave to
iny of the witnesses for killing the
men was that they had said he, Ga
goff. was of no aeoount and that he
was determined to show that he was
i good man—the process of showing
fonststin" of killing them, .\rt'--fiV
W. L. Phelps conducted the prelim
inary trial in behalf of the crown.
When called upon for a statement
n his own behalf. Gagoff declined-to i 1
say anything further than that he
would make a statement on his final
trial. He dUl, however, make a
most unusual request of the court
ind tha' v.as that he be permitted to
go around town at pleasure and call ]
an his friends, promising that he
would not make any effort to es
cape.
Alov OoeolT. murderer of four
men, is a Russian, about 28 or 30 [ i
years of ace, and is a clean-cut ap
pearing fellow. Ho is fttllv siv foot j
tall, and is of rfnng. athletic build. '
Letters wJPch he had written be
fore the murder, but had not madeft, ,
wer0 read in court by .John Vo- ;
nowsky, an intelligent Russian em
ployed at the Grafter mine. The !et
U rs had r,o panic,, - bearing r» *'o|
tase further than that one of them, j
Intended .for another Russian in ■
Dawson, requested that, in the event!
of anything happening to the writer,;
Gagoff. his body be found and sent
out of theepuntry.
The prisoner was he'd over for
trial before tha territorial court at
the pleasure of the court. It Ip
probable the trial will take place in
tie near future, the court, omnjaiE
coming from Dawson to this place.
