The "Tacoma" in from Nome. McGinn
& Harry Steel went over to the U.S. Pen
& interviewed Mort. Stevens - who
made a full confession in writing that
his former charges against Steel were
false and unfounded. He says that
he was encouraged by officials in Nome
to incriminate Steel with the hope that
he would thereby escape with a light
sentence.
