Fifteen Japanese prisoners assisted in coaling through courtesy of U. S. Marshall.

They were illegally sealing.  ;)

I guess some of the people on St. Paul Island were anti-vaxxers.   ::)
That darned social media spreading false anti-science news.

On the 18th instant certain officers and men of the "Bear" were permitted to go ashore and attend a dance on St. Paul Island, and at the same time the Surgeon of this vessel was assured by the physician on St. Paul Island that there was no contagious illness on the Island. Notwithstanding this assurance, it was learned upon arrival here to-day, through Surgeon Creel, the station physician, that an officer had recently contracted measles at St. Paul Island. It is therefore deemed advisable to quarantine the vessel to a certain extent and no one is allowed to go to Unalaska or to go near any of the few natives at Dutch Harbor.
