ESKIMO MURDERER
OF FLECKENSTEIN
TAKES OWN LIFE
Mike N. Eqwana, the Eskimo mur
derer of F. J. Fleckenstein, son of
Deputy Marshal Fleckenstein, whose
death was reported in the Gateway
last Tuesday, is dead, according to a
dispatch received Saturday by Har
vey Sullivan, marshal, while he was
in Seward.
The brief message stated the Es
kimo was found out to have com
mitted suicide on the tundra, near
Naknelc, where the crime was com
mitted, May 19. Arrivals in Sew
ard on the steamer Starr say that
the Eskimo prisoner crept up behind
young Fleckenstein, who was prepar
ing dinner in the kitchen, hitting him
over the head with an iron pipe,
killing him instantly. The murderer
then went thru the dead youth’s
pockets taking everything of value;
then robbed the prison safe and pick
ing up a rifle and box of cartridges,
left the jail practically unnoticed.
Directly following the murder, it is
reported, a wife of one of the pri
soners happened to step into the
kitchen. She was warned by Eqwa
na not to say anything or she would
get the same treatment as the dead
man.
Captain Johansen of the steamer
Starr reports he laid two days in
Bristol Bay awaiting the body of
young Fleckenstein, but owing to bu
rial plans being changed, sailed for
Seward without it. It is believed in
terment will take place at Naknek.
