CROWD

OT A, Sept. 16. H. V. Radford, an A uviican, and George Street of Ottawa, were killed by Eskimos at Schultz Lake near the Arctic Ocean about two years ago, according to a story brought here from Chesterfield Inlet on Hudson Bay. The report waa months on the way. It is to the effect that Radford got into a fight with the Ksklmos and he and Street, who went to his assistance, were both kUJd. The Eskimos kept the murder secret for several months. Harry T. Radford, Arctic explorer, fellow of the American Geographical society and member of the Arctic club of New York, left New York on February 12, 1909, for a four years' trip of exploration in northern Canada. His purpose was geographical discovery and zoological investigation and he planned to cover about 6,000 miles through northwestern British Columbia, northern Alaska and the east cape of Asia. Mr. Radford was drawn to this region by the fact that Samuel Hearne, a famous Hudson Bay trader, who in 1772 made a journey through what is now the northwestern territory from Hudson Bay to the shores of the Arctic ocean, reported wood bison there. This animal, Mr. Radford explained at the time he prepared for his trip, is without exception the ra-rest and least known animal in the world. No sportsman has ever shot one and very few men have ever seen one. His intention was not to shoot the animals but to study them in an attempt to discover the reason for the diminution

and with a view of restormg them to their former abundance. He took a stereoscopic camera in the hope of securing some good photographs.
