W STAMPEDE
TO SWiFi GREEK
There have been new develop
ments in the mystery .surrounding
the death of the two men, A. L.
Dominy and Tlios. Boyd, since the
announcement of the finding of
Uvir bodies was made in the col
umns of the Whitehorse Star on
las? Friday.
As mentioned iu that article there
had been found a diary kept by
Dominy, several entries from which
were quoted, and ill one of which
he attributed his sickness to the
drinking water used. It now trans
pires that there -were other en
tries that were not discovered in
the first examination, in one of
which • the writer claimed he was
suffering from "Rabbit Sickness,"
but as this appears to be a new
ly coined phrase, no one seems to
know its meaning unless it possibly
refers to a disease caused by the
use of rabbit flesh as a constant
diet I
Dominy, being an Italian, many
of «'e entries were in that, lan
guage. Besides this there are
drawings supposed to represent map
of localities and figures that may
t( fer to the maps or, as contend
ed by some,.be a record of either the
weather or the stages .of the water
| iu the river. Others think the
figures, if their meaning can be
deciphered, will lead to the dis
covery of rich placer fields, as it is
argued the men would not have
stayed in the locality where their
bodies were found unless there.had
opmi some strong reason for their
remaining. 1
In Whitehorse the opinion is
prevalent that the men "had found
rich diggings in the vicinity of their
cabins, but that during the winter
they had contracted scurvy, with
which disease they wore not famil
iar, and had died with the belief
they had been poisoned either from
the drinking water , or the "Rabbit
Sickness," as Dominy called it.
The commanding officer of the
K. N. W. M. P. at "Whitehorso has
taK»n the matter up and on Satur
day sent out a detachment of po
lice on board the W. P. & Y. R.
launch Falcon to make a thorough
investigation of the circumstances of
the men's death, and in order to
accomplish this they will be com
pelled to make a minute search of
the cabins where the bodies wore
found.'
When our informant left White
horse there was a rumor that a
stampede was 'likely to occur at
ai>V minutfc to the vicinity of Swift
cre?fc, the tributary of the Hootaiin
qua river near whici the gruesome
discovery was made.

WILL BE BACK
ABOUT JULY ISI
Will Clayson received word to
duv from Jaames Kennedy, manag
er or the Skagway branch of the
Will Clayson Mercantile Co., of
this place and Cordova, who was
at the time of writing at Rochester,
Minn., where his wife is an inmate
o* the Mayo Bros, sanitarium, hav
ing recently undergone a surgical
operation there, that he would .be
oack home by the 1st of July.
The news, is rather unexpected, as
Mr. Kennedy wan elected as a dele
gats to the National Convention of
the Grand Lodge or B. P. O. E-,
which is to convene in Los Angeles,
California on July 10th, and. had
fully intended to be present, as he
wrote a Skagway friend, only a few
days ago that i>e had bought his
railway ticket for th,.- Southern Cali
fornia metropolis.
There was no mention made of
Mrs. Kennedy in the letter and It is
supposed the original intention in
regard to her stay on the outside
will still maintain and that when
she is far enough recovered .she
will go to the homo of her mother
at Condon, Ore., where their little
girl now is, and remain for some
time. !
