FLAG USED AT TRANSFER
 IS SL0CATED AT SITKA
F. E. Frobese Says Ensign Hoisted at Time of Transfer Was Secured by pr. Sheldon
 Jackson-Interesting History

on the canvas lining. The flag was hoisted on the day of the transfer by Color Sergeant Harry Wild, who was still in Sitka when the flag was se- cured by the society, and when he died it was used to drape his coffin. Not withsanding the fact that the flag was identified by Wild and other soldiers who were present at the transfer, there was at first some doubt as to it's being the genuine one, until after careful examination of the records at Wash ington had been made. The soldiers at Sitka' who witnessed the transfer stated that the flag which was hoisted was the ships ensign, and that it was taken down by the captain before the vessel left and another one put up in that the statements of the soldiers were true in every detail.
 The flag is now on fire-proof build ing at Sitka, which is owned jointly by the society and the Sitka Industrial school. Ex-Governor Brady is the pres ident of the society, and Miss Patton is secretary.
 MT. Frobese, who, as curator for the society, delved deeply into the early history of the territory, states that the beautiful Russian Princess Matsuloff, who is alleged to have wept bitterly when the American flag was hoisted over Russian territory, was in her grave at the time the transfer was made. The famous princess is buried in the Lutheran churhcyard at Sit-

There is another claimant in the field for the honor of possession of the original flag which waved over AL aska at Sitka on that memorable day when this rich territory was trans ferred from Russia to the United States, and for which an earnest search is being made by the directors of the Alaska Yukon Pacific exposition.
 The new "Richmond in the field,' is F. F. Frobese, of Nome. He states emphaticaly that the flag is in the pos session of the Society of Natural His- tory and Ethnology, which has estab- lished a museum in Sitka, and of which MT. Frobese was curator for several years.
 Mir. Frobese, on being interviewed by the Nugget last evening, stated that the society was formed in 1899 with sor!e 40 members, and in 1892, Dr. Sheldon Jackson, then a missionary at that rlace. brought the original flag to Sitka from some city in the United States where he found it in possession of the widow of a naval captain, who was aboard the Ossipe at the time the transfer took place, but whose name MT. Frobese cannot now remem- Der.
 
 The history of the flag was careful identity had been established beyond all doubt, it was placed in the vaults of the society. It is marked with 37 stars, and bears the name "Ossipe," !"

ka. Mir. Frobese says that he is sorry to spoil pretty piece of romance. but unfortunately, MT. Asquith's statement it not in accordance with the facts.
 MT. Frobese has a sketch of Sitka which shows the act of makingthe transfer of the territory from Russia to America. It was drawn by crip- pied Russian artist, named Panamana- koff, who resided at Sitka at the time. This picture is also in the museum at Sitka. The sketch shows plainly where the American flag was hoisted on Castle hill.
 MT. Frobese stated that the Ludecke mentioned in Mir. Asquith's article, who, it is claimed hoisted an Amerisan flag at Wrangel before the transfer took place, was a soldier at Fort Ton gas, and was not at Wrangel until after the transfer had been made. Further than that, he says, there was Rus sian fort at Wrangel at the time, and he does not think it likely that the Russians would have allowed Ludeck- CT or any other man to hoist an Am erican flag until after the transfer was made.
 When MT. Frobese left Sitka in 1900, there were living there three soldiers, all of whom witnessed the transfer. Their names were Mcclure, Haley and Halle. They were a part of the com pany of United States marines, who were landed at Sitka on the memorable day when the territory became a pos- session of the United States.

 Lake rceek recently suffered flood which carried out the ditches of the miners who were working the bars there. These high water periods oc- cur several times each summer and MT. Anderson thinks it will be inn possible to work the bars successfully except by hydraulic elevators. He says the bars are very rich, as was demon- strated last year by the men who were fortunate enough to get in few weeks work between floods.
