he was led to the gallows and hanged,
without expression of regret for MS

Ashes Obscure the sun.

Fairbanks, Alaska, June 11.-Per-
sons arriving from the south bring
reports of heavy cannonading in the
foot hills of the Alaskan range and
it is supposed that volcanoes are in
action. The sounds come from the
vicinity of Mount Hayes. Ashes are
falling here and the sun is obscured.
Mount Hayes is $4,000 feet high and
is situated 100 miles in direct line
southeast of Fairbanks. The same
direct line continued would reach
Mount Wrangell, which is a smoking
volcano. The Mount Hayes district
has been looked upon as subject to

Food supply is Low

Seattle, Wash, June 1.-THE ar.
rival of the tug Printer at Seward
Alaska, with dispatches from Kodiak
gave the first authentic details of the
conditions on Kodiak and the adjoin-
ing islands which were buried under
more than foot Of ashes from Kat
mai volcano.
"a message to the Associated Press
from Captain Perry of the revenue
cutter Manning, which afforded refuge
to the 500 inhabitants of Kodiak and
the nearby villages of St. Paul and
st. Meridian, said there was no loss
of life at Kodiak, but Captain Perry
feared for the safety of those in the
settlements near the volcano.
The people on the island who sur
vived the hail of hot ashes and stones
are confronted with serious prob
lem of obtaining water and food. All
the crops were destroyed and the
fish upon which many depended for
food, were killed, resulting in the
pollution of the water supply to such
an extent that there is great danger
of ,pestilence. Steamers and tugs
of every sort are hurrying to the is
land from the towns on the mainland
to give relief.
The destruction of the wireless
station at Kodiak and the inability
of the Manning's wireless to commu.
nicate with the naval station at Cor
dova, makes it difficult to get news
to Seward, the nearest cable office
and it probably will be many days be-
fore details of the disaster are avail
able.
