OLD TIME THEFT
OF POM GOLD
(Valdez Miner.)
C. Edward Cone, the poet of the
Susitna. who gained considerable fame
■ in days gone by as the author of
“The Clam Digger’s Dream.” is in Su
sitna after an absence of ten years.
Mr. Cone has been mining on Hart
man creek in the Kuskokwim river
country.
The return of Mr. Cone recals th“
exciting times in the days of 2907,
with its miners’ meetings and mur
ders at Susitna.
Cone, who was the discoverer of
Poorman creek, left the creek with a
poke of $3,000. He stopped at Kin
ney’s road house and as was custo
mary laid his poke on a shelf back of
the stove. In a couple of hours h^
was ready to resume his journey and
upon- looking for his poke found it
n .ssing. Kinney claimed to know
nothing about it. Cone left immedi
ately for Susitna where a mireis’
meeting was called and an investiga
tion started. Every man in that sec
tion was accounted for except two men
wno had left the (ia\ previous for the
outride. These men were intercepted
and searched, when they voluntarily
returned to Susitna to take part in
the proceedings. The Susitna meet
ing left in a body for the Kinney road
house and there continued its investi
gation. Kinney stoutly denied any
knowledge of the poke but the evi
dence was so strong against him, as
being the only man having an oppor
tunity to get the gold, that the meet
ing decided to use force. Kinney was
told to either give up the gold or to
make his will. Being unable to sat
isfy the miners of his innocence, Kin
ney had McManus write his will
whereby he left everything he had to
Rampart Nell, who danced her way to
fame in the early days of the Nome
rush.
A scaffold was hastily erected and
the rope adjusted. When the noose

was placed around Kinney’s neck he
was given a last chance to tell where
the gold was hidden. In his strenuous
efforts to convince the committee,
Kinney tipped over the box upon
which he was standing and nearl>
strangled before he could be cut
down. This brought up a fine ques
tion, having lived through one hang
ing, was he to be hung again? It
was finally decided to bring him to
Susitna and turn him over to the com
missioner. This was done and Kin
ney was taken to Valdez where a lit
tle later he was tried and acquitted.
The trial at Valdez was sensational
in the extreme. After his acquittal
Kinney brought action against the
miners’ meeting and recovered $1,500
damages, which was never collected,
as the men he sued had no property
which could be seized and, the matter
finally passed into history and was
forgotten.
Within three months after the ac
quittal of Kinney, two members of
the miners’ meeting were killed. Pur
chase, the husband of Rampart Nell,
was shot in his roadhous at Knik,
and Dunn was shot in his roadhouse
at Susitna. Little has ever been
known as to the cause of these kill
ings. In both cases the only wit
nesses present were women and both
assailants were acquitted on the plea
of self defense.
Later Rampart Nell married the
man who killed her husband, a ?V>ung
man by the name of Johnny Kashev
nikoff, and left for the states with
him, and their whereabouts are at
present unknown. The slayer of Dunn,
Ralph Williams, was also acquitted,
and has since dropped out of sight. ^
