in Alaska last winter during terrible

was shot almost IN sight OF the gold
mecca when his strength failed him,
and he sank down in the soft snow.
johnson, who was the leader of the
party, went back to him. and, with an
oath, blew out the unfortunate man'a
brains with revolver.
This is the terrible story that is told
for the first time by j. G. Smiths, who
has just returned from Alaska. His
partner, Edward T. Calhoun, Of Yonk-
ers, N. Y, witnessed the terrible deed.
which was committed near his cabin. a
short distance from Dawson. Calhoun,
too, nearly lost his life from a bullet
from Johnson's revolver. Nothing was

tiers ordered to furnish supplies was
criminal. While in Chickamauga he
frequently made requests which were
not honored. An imperative order had
been sent to have all water boiled. He
had made requisition on Quartermas-
ter Lee for water boilers. No attention
was paid to his requisition, and he re-
peatediy urged Quartermaster Lee to
send the boilers, telling him how the
men were contracting typhoid fever.
He met with reply which read:

boilers himself, but the seeds OF
typhoid had been sown and the daily
report showed the increasing list OF
deaths and of cases in the hospitals.

General Waites said:
These men cannot say it was some
body else's fault. 1t was the fault OF
Quartermaster Lee, and it was the fault
of Quartermaster- General Ludington.
