ARCTIC EXPLORERS
REPORTED SLAIN
KILLED BY ESKlMoS-PEARYs
RECORDS FOUND - EVIDENCE
OF VISIT IN 1892 FOUND.

Ottawa, Ont, Sept 10.-The dis
appearance of George Street OF Ottawa
and II. V. Radford, an American, nor
thern explorers, may be explained by
n story which reached here today
from Chesterfield Inlet on Hudson bay
This report, brought by mail steamer
and the Hudson Bay route, and two
months on the way, tells of the murder
of Street and Radford by Eskimos
two years ago
The two men left Chesterfield Inlet
with a party of Eskimos and joined
another party of inland Eskimos at
Schultz lake, intending to proceed
to Bathurst inlet on the Arctic ocean.
Shortly afterward an alteration oc-
Cured between Radford and one OF
the tribe, and the Eskimo drove his
spear through the white man. Street
attempted to go to his companions
aid and was killed in the same man
ner.
The story was kept secret by Es-
kimos for several months, but finally
reached the ears of mounted police at
Chesterfield two months ago, and a
small detail has been sent to inves-
tigate
