MAJ. RICHARDSON
 COMES: ID VALDEZ

Maj. Wilds P. Richardson, head of the Alaska road commission, and Capt. r. A. Pope, supervising engi- neer of the commission, arrived in Valdez last evening, making the trip over the trail from Fairbanks. This is the first time that Mai. Richardson has covered the entire trail and he is loud in praise of the work that has been done all along the line.
 Starting from Fairbanks. Mai. Rich ardson drove in d, blackboard for a distance of nearly 150 miles. The rest of the trip was made on horse back, but the major says there are several stretches where wheeled vehicle can be used. There are nu- merous places where the trail needs widening but this is included in the majors plans and he expects to be- fore long to see the trail in such shape that summer travel with wagons will be possible between here and Fair banks.
 Maj. Richardson expresses himself as particularly well pleased with the work done in the canyon and on tho summit trail, under direction of Jack Ingram.
 In the opinion of Mai. Richardson 1t will be necessary for a special ap- propriation to doaway with the tro,lb- le caused near Valdez by the glacier streams. He says that it is not rcasi- ble to divert from the regular road. appropriation sufficient money to bridge the streams but says that he will willingly go before such commit ice as may have charge of the special in behalf of favorable action. Another suggestion made in this connection by Maj. Richardson is that the glacior dyke be extended sufficiently to cn- compass the streams now causing trouble.
 Maj, Richardson has many friends in Valdez, iand in all Alaska for that matter, and here he is regarded as having done moro than anyone else toward the advancement of the ter ritory and the town, for. practically single handed he has year after year obtained from the government in creased appropriations to be devoted to building roads and trails in Alaska and this fund has been expended with such intelligence as to show results for every dollar. In Valdez it is fig ured that the work done 'in the can yOn and on the summit isAof moro ad- vantage to the town and to tho min ing interests in the interior than any thing that has yet been donc along any line.
 Maj. Richardson goes fEOm here to Seward to inspect work done in that locality and will then go tb Slsagway.

AUSTIN MYSTERY
 IS YET UNSOLVED

Omaha, Sept. 11-With tho testimony adduced at the cOroner's inquest held yesterday afternoon the mystery sur rounding the circumstances of the death of Dr. Rustin has deepened and again the officers are in a. quandary. The original belief that .Dr. Rustin was murdered gave way 1o the sui eide theory after an Investigation had determined the truth of state ments made by Mrs. Abbicrcc con cerning the financial condition of Dr. Rustin immediately prococding his death.
 At the inquest, Mrs. Abbicrco tes- tified that Dr. Rustin had planned with her to shoot him and then kill herself in order that his family might get the insurance that. he carried. Twice, she said, she started to carry out the compact but each time, her nerve failed her.
 Mrs. Abbierce testified further that after her second failure Dr. Rustin pointed out to her man named Da- wis who, according to pr. Rustiu, was to do the killing. Davis has been un. der arrest in connection with the af- fair and he testified that he had made no bargain to kill Dr. Rustin but that instead he had attempted to take his own life. Davis made no oxplan- ation of the cause of his attcmpG at suicide.
 Both Davis and Mrs. Abbiorco arc being held in jail pending further iu- vestigation of the Rugtn death. Their statements, both on the witnesa stand and to the police detoc ives have been straightforward and made in apparent willingness but the off. cers believe them Go be concCaling something.
 The cororner's jury brought in { verdict to the effect that the dccoaset came to his death by pistol sho wound inflicted by T person unl,nowi to the jury.
