ON THE RUN, BUT NOT YET BEATEN,
SAYS BRITISH OFFICER OF GERMANS
LONDON, April —Sir .lames Robertson, chief-of-statf
i of the British army, in addressing a trade unionists’ meeting
last night, said, in part:
“Great Britain and her allies need more men than Ger
many and her allies have. We have a million more men in the
field now than ever before. Don’t think I am despondent. I
am confident of sueeess, but progress is slow. As to the German
letreat in the west front, pessimists say Germany is making a
fool of the United States and laying traps. Optimists say
Germany is defeated and is therefore retreating. Both are
wrong. Germany is retreating because she dare not stand up
to further punishment in positions she occupied. No one re
tires in war voluntarily. But she is not yet beaten.”

(Valdez Miner.)
Some time ago the Miner printed
1 a story concerning the drowning of
, Charles Anderson and Mike Utrecht
at Canoe bay, and the carrying off
of the body of Utrecht by a bear. 'Hie
story was a remarkable one as told
but Deputy Marshal S. O. Casler, who
was then at Unga, and one of the pas
ty who went in search of the body
of Utrecht, adds a number of interest
ing details which make the story
1 worth repeating.
According to Mr. Casler eariv last
summer Utrecht, who owned r power
boat, came over to Unga with a
bunch of furs, and took back u ith
him to Canoe bay, an arm of Pavloff
bay, a quantity of supplies for An
derson. Arriving there he delivered
his cargo, his boat being anchored out
in the bay. While there a storm
arose and for the purpose of making
his boat secure Utrecht and Anderson
put off in a small skiff, but before
reaching the larger boat were over
turned in the breakers and drowned.
The drowning was not witnessed
by Mrs. Utrecht from the shore, but
as her husband and Anderson did not
return the next day she sui raised that
some accident had happened, and she
set out in company with a native to
search the beach for their bod'es. Not
withstanding she was approaching
confinement, she covered sixteen
miles along the shore, and was unsuc
cessful, and as her little children were
alone the courageous woman was
compelled to turn back. The next day
she started out again ami found tne
body of Anderson, which sue and the
native buried on the beach, but no
trace could be found of her husband.
A week or so later a native came
«
into Unga and reported the drown
ing and also the finding of the body
of Anderson on the beach. A party
consisting of Marshal Casler, the U. S.
commissioner and others, was at once
made up and a boat was chartered to
take them to Canoe bay. The body
of Anderson was taken up, placed in
a coffin and reinterred, with a wooden
cross erected to mark his resting
place. They then proceeded to the
spot where the native had found the
body of Utrecht. The spot where the
body had been placed by the native
was found but the corpse was gone.
All about the spot were tracks of a
huge brown mear, and these were fol
lowed for a distance, when a shoe and
pieces of clothing were found, indi
cating that the boar had taken the
body away. As none of the party was
; armed, it was deemed best to retuin
I to Unga and secure guns before, fol
lowing the bear any further, and this
1 was done.
Before the party was ready to start,
however, Axel Bendivon came itno
1 Unga and reported that he had found
i where the bear had left the body,
! some distance back from the shore,
' and that it had been almost complete
ly devoured, either by the bear or by
wolverines, and the bones consider
ably scattered. Hp gathered all that
renfained together and buried them. 1
He also saw a huge bear, the largest j
he said, he had ever seen, nearby, and
fired two shots at the animal but it
bolted into the grass and made its es
cape. It was also found that the
same bear, apparently, had visited the
beach where Anderson’s body was
buried and had broken down the cross
and attempted to dig up the coffin
and had partially succeeded.
So far as known this is the first
time, at least in Alaska, where it has
been recorded that a bear carried off
a dead body or attempted to dig one
up.
Utrecht left a wife and five small
children. Mrs. Utrecht is a creole,
having been born of a white father
and native mother, and is a very cap
able woman. Unable to read or
write when married, under the in
struction of her husband she learned
both accomplishments, and has since
taught her children, there being no
school near. Ml-. Casler vouches for
her excellent character and states that
she is a competent worker and would
needing an efficient housekeeper. She
is sadly in need of employment as
she has her small family to support.
She has also her mother to support,
who could take charge of the children
if Mrs. Utrecht could obtain employ
ment.
