WRASGELL ISLAND REFUGEES REMOVED
 BY SOVIET BOAT

Information reaching Nome this
 week from Wallen, a small village
 near East Cape. Siberia. tells of the arrival there recently of the soviet vessel Red October" which succeeded in reaching Wrangell
 Island after 32 days of strenuous , work bucklng the ice The in formation also informs us that the 12 or l3 Alaska Eskimos and one white man named Harry Wells
 of Nome. who were taken to Wrangell Island to establish a col
 ony last year by Harold Noice's expedition. were all taken off the
 island by the Soviet officials on i board the Red October, including their fur catch consisting of for ty fox and forty Polar bear skins. No deaths were reported among
 the refugees who spent a year on
 the desolate and friendly" island of the Arctic Ocean. this being one of the few times vessels have returned from this island without a grewsome tale of death and
 starvation.
 The Soviet steamer Red October
 is former Russian ice-breaker and made the special trip to the island for the purpose of raising
 the Soviet flag and to procure the
 fur catch. The natives apparent
 ly were happy to leave the island
 judging from the pleasure and hospitality they were enjoying on
 the trip back, dancing being in dulged in every night aboard the vessel and 8 real good time was
 had by all aboard.
 When the Red October returned
 to Wallen it was short of fuel
 and the officers of the ship finally
 decided to break up the schooner
 Belinda. formerly an American
 schooner owned hv Aarnout Cas-
 tel. This done the vessel pro
 ceeded with the refugees to Prov
 fdence Bay, ahont 165 miles from
 Wallen where the ships bunkers
 could be filled with coal. Due to
 the fact that the vessel could not
 get in touch with Anadyr radio station and not having orders as
 to where to take the refugees. it was thought best to keep going until the ship could get in touch with Soviet headquarters. II is probable that the refugees may be landed at Indian Point. Siber- ia. and then again it may be that they will be taken to Vladivostok.
 It was also learned that the Soviet steamer Stavapole which was on her way 10 kolyma river district with supplies reached within 6o miles of her destination when it was found impossible to proceed further due to ice con ditions the cargo was landed on the beach and the vessel started on her return trip. only to again met ice conditions which made if impossible for her to return. The Red October received a radio mes sage from the Stavapole stating her condition and that the vessel would be compelled 10 winter ahout six hundred miles west of East Cape |
