TANANA RIVER IS
SCENE OF WRECK;
ONE MAN DROWNS
NENANA, May 20—The swift wat
ers of the Tanana river claimed their
first victims of the present season
early last Thursday in the person of
Chaim Perlman, former employe of
the Alaska Railroad, who started down
river in a poling boat on Wednesday
in company with Joe Keplan.
The two men left Nenana Wednes
day morning and the following morn
ing, at about six o’clock, while they
were passing through Minto cutoff
slough, the swift current carried their
boat into a cut bank, where it capsiz
ed. The two men grabbed hold of some
willows, but the bank was too steep
and they could not reach to climb out

Arriving on
every boat
Banbury and Ogle
o fthe water. After clinging there for '
some time, with occasional cakes of ice
coming against them with consiiier- !
able force, rendering their positions j
doubly hazardous, Keplau finally de- j
cided to take a chance on one of the :
cakes and climbed upon the first that
offered sufficient buoyancy. It was a
case of each man for himself.
Perched on top of his ice cake Rep
lan drifted down stream about a mile, j
without being able to get close to the
shore line. Fearful that the ice would
go to pieces under him he finally took
to the ice cold water and swam to a
nearby island. After being there a
short time, the water, which was ris
ing rapidly, overflowed his landing
place and he was forced to swim to
the mainland some distance away, j
with ice cakes and swift current com
bining to make the swim both difficult i
and perilous. He was successful, how- !
ever, and once on solid ground he
started out in search of aid for his i
partner, arriving at the cabin of Jul- |
ius Warner sometime later. Here he j
obtained food and dry clothing and j
then started to the rescue of Perlham.
Arriving at the place where the
boat capsized, no trace could be found
of the young man. It is believed he did
not try to get on an ice cake, as his
partner had done, and become so
numbed by the cold water that he
oculd no longer retain his hold, on the
willows and sank in the water.
Replan made his way to the N. C.
store at Minto on Saturday and Louis
telephoned to town for aid. The launch
Dan Patch was immediately dispatch
ed down river and has searched both
banks of the stream below the scene
of the accident, without finding a trace
of Perlham.
Perlham was about 26 years of age j
and had been in Alaska about three
years ,working part of the time for
the Alaska railroad. His home was in
Milwaukee.
