DISCREDITED BY OFFICIALS.
Reported Trouble Between Indians
and w hitesin Alaska Not Believed.

Reported Trouble Between Indians
and w hites In A aska Not Believed.
Officials of the Indian Bureau have re-
ceived no advices OF alleged troubles be-
tween the Indians and the whites of
Sitka, Alaska, or therea bouts as stated
in an Ottawa dispatch. The Bureau of
Education acts as guardian over the
Alaskan Indians, but no inteliigences of
trouble have reached that bureau.
DR.. Sheldon Jackson, who max annual
trips to Alaska. said he did not appre-
hcnd any outbreak between the Indians and
whites, but if there was trouble it would
be the fault OF the white men, as they
ruled that country and the Indians did not
receive justice. DR.. Jackson remembers
the murder of the Indian referred to in
the dispatch who was a quiet law abiding
person, but was killed in a saloon and
thrown out by the men who committed
the deed.
These men were acquitted. A govern
ment Official in Alaska reported to the
bureau tha it was brutal and unjustifiable
murder.
The reports coming by way of Ontario
cannot be OF recent date as the news from
Alaska Is only transmitted to Canada from
settlement to settlement by individuals.
ihls was the case some years ago when a
report was received in the United States,
also from Ottawa, to the effect that DR..
jackson had been murdered in Alaska while
trying to prevent the smuggling or whisky
The present alleged outbrea is regarded a s
having no more authenticity than similar
Ottawa dispatches have had.
