earful Sufferings of Prospectors from
Scourges of Alaska.
Seattle, April 30. Sixty prospectors
arrived here today from Copper river,
Alaska, on tbe steamer Excelsior. They
brought with them a repetition of tbe
story of privation and death, and many
bore evidence on their bodies of the rav
ages of scurvy and frost. A man named
Young hobbled eff the vessel on tbe
stumps of two legs. Another named
Alex Powell had but one foot.
F, C. Good win, of Oakland, Cal., whose
legs are black with scurvy and whose
knees are bruised by contact with tbe
ice, tells an interesting story of his
experiences, which were similar to those
of others. While camped in the interior
his partner, Westley Scheidecker, of
Grand Ridge, Ills., fell eick with the
scurvy, and soon became nnable to travel.
Goodwin strapped him on a sled and
started to the coast. After four days of
almost herculean labor, be arrived at
the month of tbe Shushitna, bat his
partner was frozen stark and stiff to the
sled. He buried him in tbe enow.
Continuing bis journey to the coast he
came across a tent, in which there were
two men sick with scurvy. They were
Dixon Hutton, of Memphis, Tenn., and
T. B. Rawlins, of Little Rock, Ark.
Another man happened along at the
same time, and be and uoodwm put
Dixon and Hutton on sleds and dragged
them to the coast. Other deaths are
reported, but their names are lacking.
