The fire in the navy wireless station at Cordova on October If was caused by the explosion of tank of alcohol. Five men were burned, one of them fatally, and loss of $8.OO0 resulted to the machinery. The men from the Prometheus were adjusting and testing the new instruments recently in stalled in the arc room when the alcohol supply was ignited by the backfre. The flames spread rapidly and the destruction of the plant was threatened John Glliis, the superintendent, was slightly burned; Dave Barry, civilian of the working party from the Prometheus, was burned about the face, hands and body so severely that 1t was feared he would die; J. Holton, a gunner from the Prometheus was severely burned about the face and hands; George OMara and M. Schajkowski of the radio station were badly burned. Gillis, Barry and OMara jumped through the window to the outside building. Barry, Holton and SchaJ- kowski were taken to the Cordova hospital. The latter two may recover. The interior of the new addition to the plant was gutted and the wireless was put out of commls- sion. but a temporary structure was fixed up the next day and the station resumed operations.

OLD INDIAN MEDICINE HAN
 FREED OF MURDER CHARGE

Word was received at Ruby on September 24 from Fairbanks that Old Toby, the na- tive medicine man" who has been on trial for murder at two sessions of the district court, had been acquitted by the jury, and the Record Citizen says:
 The acquittal of Old Toby is the ending, so far as legal procedure is concerned, of a very remarkable case
 Old Toby is an aged medicine man" whose habitat Is at the confluence of the kovukuk and Yukon rivers. He was very jealous in maintaining the powers and pre- negatives of his position as prophet and ln- terpreter of occult phenomena.
 The native people generally tear hlm- as much, perhaps, on account of lis ob- streporousness as for his alleged power to make medicine" Between him and Ju- lius, lame Indian, there has long existed a feeling of distrust and scarcely concealed enmity.
 At the Ruby term of court 1914, the grand jury returned true bill charging Old Toby with murder, and while on his way to Fairbanks to be placed in the fed era jail he and Old Jimmy another lower river Indian similarly charged both leaped from a steamboat into the Panama river, and Old Jimmy was drowned.
 Old Toby was hshed out and Tn due course his case came up for trial at Ruby, August 3, 1915 He was defended by E. Coke Hill and Phil GalIaher, and no better defense was possible with the limited time afforded for mastering the intricacies of the case, which was made more difficult by the fact that Old Toby and most of the other Indians were unable to speak English
 Julius was the main witness for the prosecution He told how Old Toby had followed an unknown white man up from the mouth of the koyukuk in the summeri of 1906; how the witness had heard shots and seen big smoke; and how, later, the witness had found where the white mans boat had been burned in a hole in the sand and with a paddle had uncovered burnt human flesh and bones.
 The story told by Julius was remark able for detail Notwithstanding the lapse of nine years, he replied to questions about seemingly trivial circumstances with readl, ness that carried conviction to some and suspicion to others. He was never evaslve, never elfcontradictory, and the sequence of his story establishes his rank as ge- nius either in the art of fabrication or m the correlation of events that lead to n, unnistakable conclusion. In any event Julius possesses an intellect that is unique in character.
 The jury was out forty nine hours before a mistrial was declared, and is said to have stood eight to four for conviction from the first
 That the element of doubt entered forcl bly, into the minds of the Fairbanks Jurors is evidenced by their verdict.

CAUTIONS PUBLIC
Timely Hints From the Fire Chief as to Points to Be Observed to
 Avoid ConAagrations
Ecitor Iditarod Pioneer:

ECitor Iditarod Pioneer;
 would like to caution the good people of Iditarod, through your excellent paper of the danger from overheated stoves. Tbs is the cause, in my opinion, of hte majority of fires.
 Unless your stove IS so protected from the | that it could become rel hot from legs to ceiling without danger, it shoul. be at ended to- This is liable to happen at any time, should you step out for a mom,n, leaving the drafts open. Asbestos o- fin protectors should have air space trLnI them to be the most effective, An easy way to accomplish this is to place four porcelain knobs or spooIs behind the cor ners of the asbestos or tin, thus leaving all air space the thickness of the knobs. Chairs and laundry should be carefully removed from the vicinity Of the stove when you ar, going out, even if only for few min minutes.
 Gasoline lamps are being used by almost everyone this winter Care should be used in handling these, and especially in filling tn m. Be sure there is no open flame near while handling gasoline. Fill them in day light if possible, but if they must be filed at night, use an electric torch. Don't smoke cigar or pipe whie doing so, either iu becomes a habit to strike matches while smoking One of Iditarod's large fires was caused by the igniting of can of gasoline while filling a tank A gasoline fire ls al- most impossible to extinguish by ordinary methods It must be smothered water IS wcr bless.
 When a fire gets beyond control, shut the room up tight and turn in an alarm. t.gLt room usually will hold fire back for some Htte time, as it cannot burn et- iectively without air.

RUSSIAN RUNS AMOK
 AND KILLS FOUR PERSONS

DAWSON, Sept 30-Alex Geogaff, a Russian laborer employed on the White Pass railroad as section hand ran amok today three miles south of Whtehorse and killed four men before he was subdued. His victims were Pat Winslow, the section foreman; George Lane Tom Bokonich and Henry Cook, all railroad employees. After he had killed his fellow -workmen, all of whom he caught unawares, Geogaff took a hand car and went to Whitehorse, where he asked for Fighting Mike" Sinnet, saying: T have killed four and now l want to kill Sinnet. Before he could do any more harm he was placed under restraint,
 Geogaff always has evinced suspicious nature and often refused to eat with the others of the section gang He could not understand their language and thought they were making fun of him. It was thought last spring that he was mentally deranged, but not to the extent where his incarcera- ton was considered necessary.
 Fat NInSlOW was an Olu Da"Sohlte, WHO had been seventeen years in the country. Lane hailed from Lincolnshire, England. Bokonich was an Austrian, interned here since the outbreak of the war. Cook was an old-timer in the North and had worked for years on the White Pass road.
