Swede Worth $4,000 Hangs himself
in the Butte jail.
BUTTE, Oct. Especial. John Green
land, Swede, WAS found hanging by the
neck in the city Jail this Afternoon. He
could not haye been dead more than two
minutes before a prisoner discovered him,
in the bath room. The rope was the one
used around the dinner basket. Greenland
got possession of this and slipped inao the
bath room. He threw the rope over steam
pire and doubled it so as to make sure it
would not break. He then evidently stood
on the rim of tho bath tub, tied the rope
around HIS neck and threw himself off. The
body was warm when discovered, but death
hpd occurred. The man had been arrested
for disturbing the peace, and committed to
iail this morning. 1t seems that Greenland
had been victimized by Il fallen woman and
married her. A divorce suit ia pending.
His wife is known as Dutch Rose. She was
married to Greenland at Boulder two years
AGO. but their married life has been u farce.
The deceased was worth about $4,000.

Gov. Knapp on the Subject.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.-Lyman E. Knapp,
governor of Alaska, in his annual report to
the secretary of the interior, devotes con-
siderable space to the zeal islands
and seal industry The most SER
ious difficulty in the matter, says the
governor, is the illegitlmate slaughter
OF females and young in the open sea.
There is no doubt that a most valuable ln-
dustry and fruitful source of national in
come is in danger. More than 100 maurad-
ing vessels were lowering about the islands
in Bering sea during the season. and
large number of skins were taken. The
steamer Danube made special trip to the
northern Pacific during the latter part OF
June, reaching Victoria on her return, July
6. last having on board nearly 1900 seal
skins, received from some thirty-hve seal
ing vessels which it met, apparently by ap-
pointment. Those delivering their cargoes
to the Danube were all British vessels
The governor estimates the seals illegitl-
1Aately taken during small part of las,
season at from 10000 to 10000.
