WHO RAISED THE
 fLAG AT S|TKA SITkA RESIDENT SANS \ BOY Brings Forth Documentary Evidence That American Flag naas Raised During the Transfer Ceremonies by Son of General KOsseau.

number of Alaska newspapers of the death, at Urbana, Ohio, of MarceIlus Jennings Maxwell, who was credited with having been the man who first raised the American flag in Alaska. brings the following interesting con- munfcation from Sitka to the Juneau Empire:
 A good many Alaska flag rafsers
 have been reported from time to time, and, in the interest of accu- racy, I think this matter should be put straight. In Executive Docu- ments, No. 97 to No. 180, Second Session 10th Congress, 1S67-68, every incident connected with the transfer from Russia is officially chronicled in detail.
 The ships in Sitka harbor at the time of the transfer were the Flag ship Ossipee, Captain Emmons, troop ship John L. Stephens, Captain Dall; men of war Resaca, Captain Brad ford, and Jamestown. Captain Mo Dougan; Revenue Cutter Lincoln, Captain White; Merchant ship Buena Vista from San Francisco; merchant ship Mameluke from the Sandwich Islands, and two steamships and three sailing vessels belonging to the Rus sian American Company.
 Major General Lowell H. Rosseau, the Commissioner of Transfer on the part of the United States. in his re- port of the transfer to Secretary Sew ard, said:
 "The command of General Jeff C.. Davis, about two hundred and fifty strong, in full uniform armed and handsomely equipped, were landed about three o'clock, and marched up to the top of the eminence on which stands the Governors house, where the transfer was to be made. At the same time, a company of Russian soldiers were marched on the ground, and took their places upon the left of the flag staff, from which the Russian flag was then floating. The command of General Davis was form ed, under his direction, on the right.
 "The United States flag to be raised on the occasion was in care of a color guard-a lieutenant. ser geant and ten men of General Davis command" After describing the double nation al salute from alternate guns from the Russian and American batteries, General Rosseau continues:
 "The United States flag (the one given to me for that purpose, by your direction at Washington was then properly attached and began its ascent, hoisted by my private sec retary, George Lowell Rosseau. and again the salutes were fired as be- fore, the Russian battery leading off"
 The correspondent of the Alta Cal ifornia, who accompanied the expedi- tion, in his letter describing the trans fer, said:
 "At three o'clock the Russian troops took their position directly in front of the Governors house, on the right of the government flag staff, a fir mast. 100 feet high. At the same moment, our troops em- parked in the launches belonging to the men-of-war, the boat of General Davis. with the flag and guard of hon. or, taking the lead. This movement

NOT TO DEPoRT ALIEN FOE OF
STEEL CORPORATION

Washington, Aug. 25.-George An
dreytchine, for two years an en-
ployee of the steel corporation on the
Mesaba iron range of Minnesota, will
not be deported to Bulgaria because
he joined the strike now in progress
and addressed meetings of the min
ers.
John G. Densmore, acting sec'y of
labor, has ruled that Andreytchine is
not a dangerous or undesirable alien
under the meaning of the law, and.
today Andreytchine is absolutely free.
Andreytchine's release marks the
final defeat Of the steel corporation
and their agents in attempt to deport
Andreytchine because he used his
exceptional ability as a speaker and
hnguist on the side of his fellow
workers.
Among the many who were active
on AndTeytchine' behalf were Isaac
Mcbride, Senator Harry Lane of
Oregon, Frank J. Hayes, vice presi-
