LUMBER and BUILDERS I
Ahen Joseph McDonald, former super
intendent of the Treadwell minc& —
and the man who really made th s
groat mine— made a vicious assault
on the Humboldt captain, a certain
witness, now living in Juneau, testi
fied that a man speaking broken En
glish, with a woman companion, wan
heilded behind one of the air funnels
of the boat watching the assault. Aft
or the fight was over , and while Mc
Donald was walking back and forth o>
the dock, in a terrible rage, this strftn
ger made one or two slighting re
marks about him. The remarks were
heard by McDonald, who became fur
ions with rage. Finally, losing all con
trol of himself , McDonald turned or
the man and woman and gave them <r
awful tongue-lashing- particularly D r
•”oman. The couple beat a hasty re
treat to their stateroom. The man wa
fkvmt von Demstorff.
Officials of the White l'ass and i r
kou Railway company, stationed v
Wh’trhorse, a1 so recall a man answe

Hawson. It is supposed the strange
•'n l the woman went down the Yuko*
•s- e- to Nome, taking a steamer ther
for the outside.
Some weeks after the fight on th.
' -vidwell dock, complaint was lodgor
V' the German consulate at Washing
* >n against the actions of McDonald
This caused the department of justiw
to invost:gate and led to the vigorous
prosecution of the mine superinten
dent. His dismissal as superintendent
came shortly after. The Rothchilds
own the controlling interest in the
[hi ad well mine and it is presumed
Von Hernstorff employed his influence
v.th these financial magnates to bring
about the discharge of the superin
tendent, who had gro: sly insulted him
and the woman—who is believed to
ave been his. wife. Indeed it may be
hat Hernstorff was himself interested
n the big mine and came to have a
look.
