JUNEAU
MEET DEATH
BY DROWNING
JUNEAU, Aug. 31.—R. F. Norton
and H. H. Bennett, electricians of the
Alaska Electric Light and Power Co.,
were drowned near Oliver inlet, Ad
mirality island.
The two men left Juneau on a small
gas boat, the Aatta Boy, for Hidden
creek, near Oliver inlet, and expect
ed to take a hunting and fishing trip.
In some manner, while going from
the gas boat to the shore in their
skiff, which is six or seven feet long,
they were thrown into the water and
drowned.
Mr. Norton was found by Jack
Woodard, who with Rancel Cowden
had made camp at Oliver’s inlet.
Woodard had gone back into the hills
and on his way back to his camp he
passed a man, apparently asleep.
Woodard, according to his story went
up to waken him and found him to
be dead. He put the body of Norton
on his own gas boat and immediately
started to town.
The bedding and food the two men
o rT fol/on ■nrJTli iirnr/v f aiim J
piled on the beach, as they had evi
dently unloaded them from the gas
boat. The boat was anchored between
200 and 300 yards from the shore and
the skiff was lying on the beach bot
tom up, at the high tide mark. The
calking along the center of the bot
tom of the skiff had been pulled out.
From this evidence the supposition
is that the men had run the gas boat
in to the beach, unloaded their sup
plies and had taken the boat out about
300 yards. They had then, it is
thought, started for the shore in the
skiff. In some way the skiff was
swamped or turned over and they
were both thrown into the water.
It is thought that Norton swam to
shore and probably died of exhaus
tion. No trace of the body of Ben
nett could be found.
Marshal J. M. Tanner arrived in
Juneau on the steamship Spokane

piracy and grand larceny and are to
be tried before the United States
district court at Juneau.

APPROPRIATION
IS REQUESED TO
DEPORT ALIENS
NEW YORK, Sept. 1 (by Associ
ated Press).—Increased appropria
tions to enable the United States im
migration authorities to deport aliens
in whom insanity is discovered, was
urged here by Dr. Spencer L. Dawes,
medical examiner of the New York
State Hospital Commission.
Dr. Dawes declared that although
290 insane aliens were deported dur
ing the fiscal year, there are still
a great number in the state who
might be deported if funds were
available, thus cutting down an item
of expense which is second only to
that of education in New York.
Dr. Dawes said that there were
29.000 insane persons in state insti
tutions who cost the people annually
$11,500,000.
Of the 290 aliens deported for in
sanity last year 147 were sent to
tl-.eir home countries in the usual way
by the federal authorities, while 143
were “repatriated” by the state with
the permission of relatives or guar
dians of the patients. Explaining this
process of “repatriation,” Dr. Dawes
said:
“After securing the consent of re
latives to ‘repatriate’, we arrange for
passports to his or her home and
then give the insane person clothes,
toilet articles and a new suitcase for
the return trip. Under escort or
guard, we send the patient all the
way and see that he or she is safely
delivered to relatives or friends on the
other side.
ucist year me state oi rsew lorK
appropriated $40,000 for this purpose
alone.”
Dr. Dawes said that in addition a
great deal of time and money was
devoted to returning insane persons
to other states in which they are
residents, wether citizens or aliens.
“With the exception of Connecti
cut,” he said, “we have no difficulty
in getting other states to take back
their insane. We have written agree
ments with Massachusetts, Ohio, Illi
nois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Washington
!
several others. Not infrequently we
send parties of insane persons across
the continent to the Pacific coast.”
The law provides that insane aliens
may be deported at any time provided
that legal proceses are instituted
within five years of their landing
here. As New York is the greatest
port of entry, Dr. Dawes said, this
state becomes the dumping ground
for thousands of these people who
must be taken care of at public ex
pense until deported.
