NIX OX NEAR BEER FOR
MEN OX BIO BARGE
The crew of tii« Alaska Barge
compauy's bargo Bi^ Bonanza have
climbed tin masse aboard the -water
wagon. The members of the crew
are steady, industrious mariners.
They tculd not be described as
"drinkinp men," but most of theai
liked an occasional glass of beer.
This week they have boon strolling
about the Seattle streets ■with, five
months' pay In their pockets and
not a drcp of beer in sight.
Last August the mariners signed
on the Big Bonanza tor the voy
age to and from Kogu-ang, Bering
Sea. The barge was chartered by
Libby, McNeil A: Llbby to carry lum
ber and other structural material to
Koggiung lor the rebuilding of a
cannery there. The barge was
towed to K-gglung in August. Late
iu the suniuier the Puget Sound
Tug Boat Company's tug Gollah
steamed to that place and towed
the Big Bonanza to Butch Harbor.
Fhe're the oarge lay until the middle
of December, whoa tho Goliah went
:iorth to bring her back to the
sound.
In the meantime members of the
crew lived a white ribbon life.
But they had a swoll cook aboard,

the following regarding Dr. Gable's
recent visit to the interior town:
Is Alex Gagoff, convicted of mur
der and sentenced to hang on the
10th of next month, sane or other
wise?
Gagoff is an inmate of the jail
at this place but away out in damp
and Juicy Vancouver he has friends
who are at work, literally speaking,
to save his neck. Those friends
have raised a sum of monejr and
have employed an attorney who
several weeks ago, asked for and
was supplied with a duly oertlfled
account of the trial of Gagoff to
gether w'th copies of all the evi
dence thereat adduced. On these
documents the Vancouver attorney
lodged a motion with the minister
of justice at Ottawa to have Ga
goff's sentence commuted to life
imprisonment on the grounds of
insanity, the claim being that no
man iu his right mind would com
mit the crimes of which he was
convicted, killing in cold blood four
inoffensive and unarmed men.
The authorities at Ottawa, oil
the representation made by the
Russians of Vancouver, through
thetr attorney, instructed that medi
cal opinion on Gagoff's condition, in
addition to that of Dr. Clarke of
this olace who has had the man
undtr observation ever since the
crimes wort, commited, be procured
ana for that purpose Or. W. G.
Gabie o' Skagway was here this
week returning home Thursday
morning. The fate of Gagoff will
depend wholly on the report sub
mitted by Drs. Clarke and Gabia
Should thty decide that he is sane
liow a;id was sane at the time of
his wholesale crime, the hanging
will, *n all likelihood, come off on
scuedule time, March 10. Should
the professional gentlemen find
th-'it he is not and was not sane
at the time of the crime, his sen
tenco will likely be commuted to
life imprisonment.
I.ATER—That Alexander Gagtiff
was mentally responsible at the
time ihe crime of killing four men
was committed and that he is now
sane is the verdict reached by Drs
Clarke and Cabie and wired to the
Department of Justice at Ottawa,
yesterday lifter an examination of
the prist ner and of all the Evi
dence sine0 his incarceration.
