He said he ha’ not been away from Chicago during the last fow days. He was arrested at his offices which were raided by State’s Attorney Crowe Sunday night. Records seized in the raid on Foster's headquarters and the Michigan rendez vous collected the names of many radicals throughout the country and will prove valuable in the roundup, the authorities said. Foster was arrested by James Roon- = De Voursney, operative for the priv: ate agency headed by William “J. Burns, chief of the federal secret serv- toe. For several days before the gather- ing in the woods, strangers dropped off trains at St. Joseph and Benton Harbor singly and in twos and threes. They turned up later, according to federal agents, at a forest resort near the village of Bridgman. Burning pine knots furnished the lights for the assemblage in a lonely gladgat the bottom of a heavily tim- bered valley. Operatives for the fed- eral dqpartment who watched the gathering notified their chiefs. In the meantime word that they were watched apparently reached the dele- gates to the radical convention, for many of them disappeared. Then the word came to make the arrests after communications between federal and local authorities, sheriff's deputies and government operatives drew in their dragnet.

Hay today loomed as the probable candidate of the Republican party for gov- ernor of Wyoming on the basis of unofficial returns from 540 precincts of the state which gave the Rock Springs candidate a lead of 89 votes over Gov ernor Robert D. Carey, his opponent The latest totals compiled from news- paper counts give Hay 14,812 and Carey 14,723 The above vote, compiled at noon to- day includes practically complete ri turns from every county in the state with the exception of Albany, Fre- mont and Campbell counties, parts of which still are missing.

The tract is on the watershed in the Silvies river, In the MaJheur na- tonal forest and is said to contain 7.- 000,000,000 feet of mature saw tim- ber. The forest service announced the sale, in pursuance of “the federal pol- icy of putting the forests of our coun- try to their highest use instead of locking up valuable timber resources so that they are of no benefit to the American people. Forest service officials said, how éver, that the Irnd would be sold for development under government regu- lations so framed as to “insure tinuous production for time. 4 to 60,000,000 board So subscribe for Tribune, con nually, today heralded the agreement as a EL meetin opie MANUFACTURER triumph because they re’ain the LOS ANGELES, Aug. 24,—Fred Oesterreich, garment manufacturer, formerly of Milwaukee, Wis., was shot and killed in his home here presumably by burglars. He and his wife returned to their residence after visiting friends Mrs. Oesterreich went upstairs turned on the lights in her bedroom and stepped toward a closet. Imme- diately she was seized and thrust Into the closet and the door locked behind her. She thought her husband was playing a joke on her, and she called out “quit your fooling!” There was no response, and the next she heard was three shots down- stairs. Neighbors rushed into the house and found Oesterreich dead with one bullet wound in his temple and two in his breast. | In the unofficial returns the fortunes of Democratic candidates, unopposed or with contest, were practically disregarded. And even now the man in the street does not know who the Democratic candidates were or who | won the nomination. Yesterday evening Hay took the lead over Carey, who had held it during the day, by the reporting of scattered | southwestern precincts. Then began the see-sawing, settling down this afternoon to a lead of 286 by Hay, | with scattered precincts in Albany, Fremont and Camp- bell counties still delinquent. Of the unreported territory Albany and Fremont counties are regarded as favoring Hay and the Campbell | county country as debatable, possibly more favorable to Carey than Hay. ‘ This points as certain to the nomination of Hay as things political may be regarded as certain. : | The primary has been so replete with surprises that no one is justified in claiming anything containing the least element of doubt. ‘At this stage of affairs claims are futile.
