TERROR OF TEDDY’S NAME
QUELLS BLACK REVOLUTION
Dispatches have been received at
Washington, D. C., from San Domingo
which indicate that Roosevelt’s name
carries terror to the black men of the
island, and that the mere mention of
it quelled a revolution.
The reports state that the insurrec
tion in San Domingo had assumed
dangerous proportions. Natives were
flocking to the standard of the bandit
leader, Chaca, and it semed probable
that a large force of marines and sol
diers would be needed to disperse the
little army.
While this situation was supposed
to be growing worse with each day
the commander of the United States
marines was greatly surprised to have
the bandit leader announced as a call
er. When he was brought in he said
that he had come to surrender himself.
On being questioned as to what led
him to do this he said that he and his
men had heard the news that General
Roosevelt and his rough riders were
loon to come to San Domingo, and
that there was no use in lighting
against him and his demons.
The bandit said that his followers
had dispersed Hi all directions to
mountain fastnesses and could not be
induced to .light against a man who
killed lions and Jjgers with his bale
hands and at a whole bullock at one
meal.
The terror of the blacks is stated in
the dispatches to have been genuine,
and the mere name of Roosevelt is
said to inspire fear amongst them.
The United States commander states
that he does not know how the rumor
was spread among the revolutionists,
unless it started from a chance re
mark which was made as a joke by
some of the marines, and was report
ed to the bandits in the hills by their
spies.

GEORGE ANDERSON, Campbell Bldg., 4th and F Sts.
;
SEATTLE, April 5.—"Alaska ran
use her own coal this winter,” declar- 1
ed George Nelson, well known rail
road contractor of Katalla, who is now
building the railroad of the Alaska
Anthracite Railroad company on Con
troller bay.
Mr. Nelson is going inside with a
crew of 100 men aboard the Admiral
Watson on April 9. He expects to in
crease the number of this crew in
Alaska. The company recently
bought in San Francisco two locomo
tives of 60 and 40 tons each, standard
gauge, 16 flat cars, 10 coal cars, and
other equipment.
The company built 18 miles of road
on Controller bay last summer, and
Nelson is now going to complete the
remaining 2f> miles of the line to tide
water. Wharfage and other facilities
will be provided on Controller bay.
The initial expenditure of the compa
ny will be between $500,000 and $600,
000.
“The road will tap more coal acre
age and tonnage than the govern
ment could do with $20,000,000,” says
Mr. Nelson. “Wre will be ready to
ship coal from the mine to Goose bay
in August or September. We can al
so ship coal in October or Novemner
to any point in Alaska or on the out
side. Alaska uses 200,000 tons of coal ■
annually, and we are first going after
our share of this business. It has al
ready been proved by government
test that the coal mined in Alaska is
equal, if not superior, to the high
grade anthracite mined in Pennsylva- ,
nui.
The capitalization of the company
is $5,000,0(H). The officers are John
A. Campbell, president; James Camp
bell, vice-president; Charles Davis,
; secretary. Ritchey and Roy Kinnear,
now controlling the large Kinnear es
tate, which has heavy Seattle realty
holdings, are also interested.
NEWS ITEMS OF INTEREST
I ROM MARSHALL DISTRICT
(Iditarod Pioneer)
Postmaster Ansley received in the
last mail a letter from Fred Harrison,
now located at Fortuna Ledge, in the
Marshall district. It was dated Feb
ruary 12, and contained the following
news items of general interest:
“Things here are not very lively.
We have had two cases in court, the
first one an Indian from Bethel named
Simka Bugge, charged with rape, and
the last one a charge of burglary •
aguist Frank Lewis, who was charged
with breaking into and robbing A1
Hall’s tin shop of about $340. Both
defendants were cleared at the prelim- j
inary hearings. In a mining way,
shortly after the first of the year a
pay hole was sunk on Disappointment
creek, which which the dirt taken av- :
eraged about 25 cents to the pan, and
a hole has just been bedrocked about ;
a hundred feet upstream from the first
one, which shows about the same, j
Great hopes are felt for the Wilson
creek side. Wilson is the creek on
which the original stampede to this
place, in 1913, was based.
"Aex McMullin and John Stanfield’
are working a lay on No. (i. Disap- ,
pointment. John Giacherio has sold ’
his half interest in the lay with ‘Cur- !
ly’ Smith, on No. 2 above, Willow '
creek, and is expecting to work
some ground on Disappointment. The
report is that he sold for $20,000. Ed
die Anderson is prospecting on Ele
phant creek, another tributary of Wil
son creek. Charlie Murray and Fred
Umphries, alias the ‘Little Giant’ (you
no doubt remember him as a barber at
Iditarod in 1910 and 1911), are pros
pecting on Willow creek under a lay.
Bob Cockburn and J. Henderson are1
getting ready to open work on No. 3
above, on Willow creek. They expect;
to make a good showing this coming i
summer. The ground has never been !
worked yet, but No. 2 above is one of j
the rich claims.
