WOMAN INDUCES LOVER
 ID KILL HER HUSBAND
Grewsome Details of Crime Afogna1x Become Public Upon Confession of Wife Who With Para
 1nour is Under Arrest Awaiting Grand Jurv

Admitting her part in tho affair and charging her lover, George Pcstria- koff, with the actual decd, Macrcna Kavorzoff, 10 ycar-old Russian girl is under arrest at Afognall accused of instigating thc murder of her husband, Peter KaVOrzom. Pcs triakoff is also under arrest and be fore the grand jury will be charged with murder in the first dcgcc. The murder was committed August 10 in Ouzinski.
 According to the reports of the crime brought by the steamship Port land the woman has taken upon her self the entire responsibility for cauls- ing the murder. Her story is one of cold bloodedness and deliberatiOn all most transcending belief. While her lover went forth to do murder she lay covering in the cellar of his house and after the husband had been kill ed she greeted the murderer warmly and then went with him while he at tempted to dispose of the body.
 AlUerWard, the woman spent two days and nights in company with her lover and then confessed the crime.
 Aside from the murderer tho only person to witness the deed was Ly- candray, the 12 ycar-old son of the murdered man, and cautioned by both the murderer and his woman ac- complice, he kept to himself his know ledge of what he had witnessed on the night that he started with his fa- ther for a walk. The lad also lent his feeble aid to the efforts to dispose of the body of his father.
 The woman's story is that she we'd ded KavOrsoff at her fathers demand although she never liked the man.

.ESTERLY FACING
 SERIOUS CHARGE:

Charges. which, if they prove true, will result seriously for George Es- tcrly, special deputy United States marshal, and Frank Herman, United States commissioner for the Nizina district, are made by Harvey Hearing who has just arrived from Nizina. Hearing has told friends here that he is going to place the case before Deputy Marshal Dreibelbis but he has not done SO up 10 the time the Pros uoCtOr goes to press.
 Hearing declares that one of the men working for Esterly, Kirby by name, went insane some weeks ago and that he is now living about the camp, practically unattended and more like q wild thing than a human being. Hearing desired to bring Kirby out but says that he was denied permission despite the fact that hs offered to do SO at his own expense. Hearing says that Kirby has relatives in the east who will care for him and that at present he is permitted to run around the camp, sometime naked, and that his food is thrown in front of the tent in which he lives without effort being made to feed him.
 Kirby, according to Hearing, was injured n"ar Katalla last year, a rock l thrown by q blast striking him on the head. At that time nothing serious resulted but after going into the Ma gina country Kirby became so bad that jury was impanclcd and de. cidcd that he is insane.
 Deputy Marshal Dreibelbis says that he can take no action as the case is in the hands of a deputy marshal and q commissioner, but that if the | story is true the facts should be pre- scented before the grand jury. Tbe | law prCscribCs that in the case of a ] person being found insane it is the l duty of the marshal to, as soon as possible, takc the patient to m asylum, Mir. Drcibclbis says that it is not jn
 tho province of the marshal at Ma
 gina to turn Kirby over to privite
 individual but that special guard
 could have been appointed for the
 purpose of bringing him out.

CONGO ID BE FREE
 FROM THRALDOM

Brussels, Aug. 2t-King Lcopold's S long and harsh dominion over the Congo is soon to become thing of the past. The chamber of deputies this morning brought to an end d struggle among it's members lasting for more than q month and by vote of eighty-three to fifty.fvc decided in favor of the Congo annexation treaty. The action of the chamber spells de. feat to the hopes of the king who has used every inf uence at his command to defeat the annexation proposition.
 For years the Congo has been uu- der the absolute dominion of King Leopold and the manner in which he has exercised this power has become an international disgrace. Timc and again has effort been made to induce some country to step in and give to the natives some measure of relief from the cruelty to which they havo been subjected but every such effort has been for naught.
 His dominion over the Congo has made King Leopold immensely veal. thy for the country is prodigal in commercial resources. Several years ago, fearing American intervention in behalf of the natives, King Leo pold granted certain concessions to New York financicrS hoping that their influence in their own country would successfully oppose any att tempt at interference with his loot ing of the richest spot in all Africa. Time goes to show that tho aged monarch acted wisely for although the horrors of his dominance in the Congo have been exposed by maga. zine writers and by missionaries the United States, as well as other na- tions, has remained quiescont.
 One of the largest placers operated in Southeastern Alaska is the Rainy Hollow property. The largest Hume in Alaska is now complete at this property and is more than q mile in length, measuring forty feet wide at the intake and thirty-six feet at the lower end. The property is situ6tod forty miles from Hainog,

Election returns from Afognak re- ccived on the Portland by the Pros pcctOr give the vote at that place as follows: Corson, so, Wickcrsham, ', Cum, 1. The result is taken as an in- dication that the trip made by George Shea to the westward shortly before election was not without it's results and returns from other places where the natives and Chinese canncry cm- pioycs form the great bulk of the pop ulatiOn are awaited with interest.

This was in September, 1907 ana tho first month or so the newly married couple lived happily. Then the hus- band began to be jealous of the man who later did murder, and to threaten the woman with punishment. The woman says that sho began to fear her husband and that she sent word to her lover and discussed what they had best do.
 The affair driftcd along until Aug ust 7, when the woman wrote to Pcs triakotf telling him to "Get some thing for Poter." Pcstrial1oT did not do this, although tho woman meant for him to get poison, but upon his return the two discussed the question of diaposing of the husband and on tho evening of the tenth decided that the lover sho uld go to the hus- band and tell him that the wife was at the lovcr'a homo. While Pestria- kofl went on this mission, the woman remained in the cellar of his house until he returned accompanied by the son of karvorHoff, who, according to the woman was in tears.
 Pcstriakon told that he had attack ed his victim as the latter and tho son were on the way to the house of the murderer, and that the body had been hidden temporarily. Then, in the presence of the son of the mur- dcrcd man, the lovers planned to dis pose of th" body by taking it away in Che murdcrer's dory and sinking it in the bay.
 Itis remarks made by young Kay orZoil after the disappearance of his father led to conjecture that resulted in the arrest of Pcstriakon and the woman.

The foreclosure sale of the Alaska Central Railway to q new company promises developments which may involve SCmo of the most important groups of capitalists in the United States, Canada aud England.
 Three groups of prospective buyers are already in the field and more arc likely to como in, aI knUwn to com mand largo capital.
 The great coal fields Of Central Alaska, 2l0 miles long i5nd 100 miles wide, through which the road is pro vast deposits of gold and copper in the samc district, together with tho central position and good harbor Of the road, make iG an inviting connoc~ tion for the big mining, smelling and trans. continental railroad interests.

.LATOUCHE CASTS
 ONE CORSON VOTE

Along in the spring the IIoggatt push of Juneau outlittcd A. E. O'Bri- cn, now editor of the Juneau Record, to go into the CncmCy's country along the southern coast and gather up proxies for the Kctchillaa convention. His instructions were to follow the plan of Ole Mis- Means in "rhc IIoos- fer SchoOlmastcr,' "Git a plenty while you're gittin."
 Industrious beach rombing around Prince William sound brought mcagCr results bat Mir. O'BriCm did not re- turn cmp'y-handrd. He iishcd one proxy out of Valdez, one al Lat0uchc and one at EllamHr. The proxies from Latouchc and Valdez were al lowed him by that high court of cqu- ty, Muranc'# packed committee on credentials. That from 1lIamar was dropped because it was not needed after about sixty valid credentials were thrown out.
 Now what Valdez would like to V Bricn hold that caucus at IiIlamar? Nobody voted the IIoggatt ticket there in the election. At LatOuchC it was different. One man voted the the fellow who helped "Gus" hold the caucus and fix up Il crCdCntial and proxy after the regularly elected del cgatc from LatOuCho had refused to give his proxy.
 Wiclcrsham received thirty-sCycn votes at LatouchC and twenty. three at Ellamar to one for COrsOn, a sOmc- what different ratio from the division of delegates by the credentials com mittcC.
 1 Returns from thrco Sound precincts add q little to Judge Wickcrsorm's lead for delegate to congress. The following camC in on the PCnnsyIva- mia:
 -Wicltcrsham 20, Roman 3, Corson I.
 Horseshoe Bay-Wickcrsham 8.
 Hogan Bay--Corson 15.
 It is reported that Drier Bay voted il for Wickersham but tho report is not official.
 Returns arc practically all in now except from Cook Inlet and Alaska peninsula. The total of the territory now stands as follows:
 Wickersham 326l; Chibcrg 2I2G Corson t737; Roman VI; Cum 1t0.
 The remaining westward precincts will probably be nearly all Wicker sham except Nushagak, which ia cS, pccted to return big vote for Cor aon. It i9 known that it. was the hope of the corporations which backed Corson 70 eject him by casting ar immense padded vote at C0rdova ant NushGgak. Cordova banned out al right and Nushagak is likely to give similar returns.
 As evidence of this officers of tho steamer Dora reported in Seward or returning from the westward thaI George A. Shea, instead of going tt tlliamna to look at mining property went to Nushagak to round up tht Chinese, Japanese and Alcut vot, for Corson. There arc not 100 leRa ! votes at the NushaGak cannories.
