SEATTLE, Sept 11. The syndicate ex
Sedition which -went north last Spring
3a the steamship Samoa with a eonces
eion from the Russian Government to
prospect 1009 -miles of the Siberian coast;
is & thrilling fiasco, The Samoa recently
returned to Nome with 30 or more Rus
sians aboard, practically the prisoners of
eeven Americans. The vessel .was placed
n charge of American soldlers'and later"
the situation was Investigated: lay Colonel
Evans and Lieutenant Jarvls, of. the
United States Treasury "Department. .
As a result, the Cossacks will be sent
fcack to Russia, while the Americans will
return to San Francisco in the Samoa,
The whole affair will be reported to the
authorities at "Washington, and corre
spondence will probably be opened at
once with the Russian Government to
escertain what Russia's future position
will be in xegard to American conces
ekmists.
It develops that when the Samoa was
off the. coast of Slberiathe Russian trans
port Yakoutwa's -sighted and hailed, and
et the instance pf a Russian In the party
named Dadouneditch about SO Russians
were transfered .from the transport , to
the Samoa. DadounSdltch said "the Rus
BlanS were labprere, but as soon ,as they
'were aboard he volunteered the informa
tion that "he had now 30 armed Cossacks?
at his back and proposed to depose George
D. Roberts as head of the expedition.
He also' disclosed the fact that not only
was hie the representative of the RusBlan
syndicate interested in the expedition, but
was also an agent of the Russian Gov
ernment and that the Cossacks aboard
were soldiers.
The Americans armed themselves that
night and, while a majority of tho Rus
sians were asleep, the Samoa was headed,
for American waters., it is believed that
one International complications may
arise as a result of the trouble.
The already most boundless numbers of
law suits over Nome Creek claims was
on August 20 increased by the filing of
etllf another -action by JL I Blake, Chris
Eimber and F. "L. Porter against J. I.
Hagelin, John Boynetson, N, O. Holtberg
and 32. O. Xdndblom. The suit involves
practically all the developed claims in the
district and entangles the titles almost
beyond unraveling. The plaintiffs allege
that they were partners of the defendants
n prospecting when gold "was discovered
by them at Nome late in 1B98, and that
Hagelin, Holtberg and Boynetson, in vio
lation of an agreement not to stake until
the following Spring, came back and lo
cated the claims "in litigation. The plain
tiffs ask the court to recognize them as
partners.
