NOME, Aug. 21 (P-Prof. Hrdlicka has found valuable data tending to determine the racial origin of eski- mos. He said because of the essential facts which will be divulged only from the Smithsonian institution, this summary is strictly unofficial. Hrd- licka collected specimens along the Yukon river to the seacoast, along the Alaska peninsula and arctic coast to Kotzebue, thence to Point Barrow, Kot- zebue, thence to Point Barrow where he sought traces of ancient dwellings and implements of peace and war. He found that storms had obliterated much of the evidence, but he believes in the Yukon migration route. Prof Hrdlicka is leaving here today, but will stop at Diamonde, Nunivak and St. Laurence island also for several days. He goes then to Unalaska en route to San Francisco. He made a minute examination of two 1.iiles of two miles of the coast here, but was unable to find any trace of ancient graves which were known to exist be- fore the terrific storm of 1913. He believes all of them were washed into the sea. He requests miners and ex- cavators to notify the Smithsonian h. stitute and other government agencies of any anthropological discoveries, or those who are retaining specimens, for examination
