Murders Two Men When Asked
to .'Leave Train or 'Buy a
Tloket.
Limen, Cab, Sept. 22.--A
brakernan and conductor of a
passenger trafln, were shot and
killed by a tramp who was at
tempting to steal a ride on their
train. The tramp escaped to the
hills and is being pursued by the
sheriff and it is believed that his
capture will be a matter of a few
hours.
The murder was cold-blooded
and was witnessed by the train
crew who were without arms
and made no attempt to appre
hend the desperate man. The
fellow had refused to leave the
train or purchase a ticket a*n,d
when the brakernan seized him
to force him off jhe was shot
through the head, dying instant
ly. The conductor went to the
assistance of his fellow workman
and suffered a like fate. The
tramp fired but two bullets and
is evidently a crack shot. The
sheriff has ordered his deputies
to take no chances in effecting
his capture.

George Poncin’s Partners Say
He Secured Gold Displayed
From Prospectors Here.
The Miner in its issue of Sun
day morning printed a report of
a new strike having been made
in the Chisana district by George
Pocin. The story was taken from
the Skagway Alaskan of recent
date and was an account of bis
having arrived at Juneau with a
small vial of gold containing CO
cents which lie claimed to have
lakc/n from one pan on a new
creek the name of which he did
not disclose, claiming that he did
not want to starl a stampede be
fore he had time to properly pro
tect his ground.
There are two men in Valdez
who believe that the man men
tioned is their partner, George
Poncin, and that he was never
near the new camp -but secured
the gold from prospectors who j
took it from a creek within twen
ty-live- miles of Valdez. The
three men came uorth to go to
the Ghisana hut turned hack be-|
hire reaching Gulkana. Pnn- i
