After finishing the meal he told Joh n to go to Tacoma and purchase two d5-caliber Colt revoivers and 100 rounds of ammunition, with the t at that if he gave information to the authorities of that place he would mur- der the e family. Johnson left Kent on the lock . returning at 4 o'clock. While he was absent from Kent remained in the vicinit the home and appeared to be uneasy, as if expecting a visit from the officers. Sev- eral times he went to the top of a small hill in the rear of the Johnson home and viewed the surrounding country. Upon the return of Johnson from Ta- coma, Tracy ordered Mrs. Johnson to cook him enough provisions to last a week. She boiled two dozen eggs, fried bacon and gave him an extra large sup- ply of sugar and flour. Tracy compelled the members of the family to remain on the premises until the return of Johnson from Tacoma. He did not leave the house until after dark. Usually Tracy has en- gaged in bits of repartee with members of the families he has held up. This time he appeared to be excited, and according to Johnson seemed very much worried. y d very little during his stay at the Johnson home. Outside his demands for food and the instructions he gave Johnson regarding the kind of revolvers to purchase he did not attempt to open ersation with any members of the In several homes the outlaw has v a fondness for children. At John- son’s he paid no attention whatever to them and spent most of his time in ob- serving persons who passed the house. Johnson has left his home and refuses to return until Tracy has been heard from. He is fearful the convict will re- turn and carry out his threat. Johnson bas read the newspaper accounts of the desperado’s acts about Seattle. He de- scribes him perfectly and Sheriff Cudi- hee says the clothing he is now wearing is the same he had-on at the Jorrel home train of | at_Renton. Sheriff Cudihec was in conversation with Johnson for some time. He procured a good description of the outlaw and also of the firearms he has in his possession. He is certain that the officers_were on a false chase to Green Lake Wednesday night, but unable to account for the unknown man who visited the Hillman home. Johnson speaks English poorly and it was with great difficulty Sheriff Cudihee obtained the facts necessary. He be- lieves Johnson 1s telling a true story | and is thoroughly convinced it was Tracy | Fho was at the place and not a con- cderate to throw the officers off the | track. The fact that the man upon first entering the house announced he was Tracy is evidence that the whereabouts of the convict has been established for a certainty. He proceeded as he has done Xhi»retofl(;‘re by orderlr:ig the family not to egve the room and then del sofyething to eat.

After my wife hed cooked him his breakfast he toid me he wanted firearms and more ammunition. He gave me to understand that his gun was loaded and that if I did not go to Tacoma and procure him two 45-callber revolvers and 100 rounds of ammunition he would murder my wife and children. I told him 1 did not have the money. He then said that I nad bet- ter go up to Kent and borrow it and then get the first train for Tacom. I was cfraid that if 1 did not do as I was told he would kill my family and I hurried to Kent and secured some money from a friend and took the 7 o'clock train. In Tacoma 1 found that I had only money enough to buy one gun. I returned 'to Kent about 4 o'clock. When I reached heme T found -that my wife was in & state of nervous collapse from fright.

He appeared to be very uneasy and after I returned made several trips into the | vard and looked-about to see if any per- son was approaching. From his actions T believe he thought he was being pur- sued. . “During the afternoon he took up a pesition on a hill just in the rear of my house and watched the road. He seemed to be completely exhausted and I don’t think he has had any sleep since he left Seattle and vicinity. I often wanted to attack him while he was at the house, but was afraid he would kill some mem- ber of my family if I did so. He did not give me any opportunity to get hold of his rifie. Besides the gun I bought for him he had his rifle.and an old gun with a black stock. It laoked like an army revolver. He told me it was not good for very much and he wanted to get rid of it. He carried 4 revolyer in each hip pocket when he left the house and his rifie under hig arm. His coat, vest and trousers are black, the trousers being too short. “When Tracy first came to the house and stated who he was, my wife and 1 told him we would anything he asked us., He did not seem to pay any attention to what we said, but began to give orders. I am so afraid that he will pay & second visit to our house that I have deserted it and will not return until he bas been located.” The town of Kent is alive with rumors of all kinds regarding Tracy's destina- tion. Numerous citizens have volun- teered to join the posses in search of the murderer. Armed men are appearing on the streets and great excitement reigns. Sheriff Cudihee has left for Auburn and will attempt to head Tracy off. If he has not returned to Seattle, Cudihee be- lieves his destination is the Palmer cut- off. Cudihee has also learned that John- son made one statement to the effect that Tracy said he had been surrounded by more than 100 armed men at Renton but succeeded in making his escape. Also that he had secured about $2 In silver from Johnson. ] —_— e TRAINS ARE PROTECTED. Railroad Officials Fear That Tracy May Stop an Overland. TACOMA, Wash., July 10 —No doubt ex- ists that Tracy is carrying out a care- fully laid plan to reach Palmer, in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains, fifty miles east of Tacoma. He was married there several years ago and has friends and relatives there. Palmer is a town of 200 people and is the junction where the Northern Pacific branches, with one line coming straight to Tacoma through the mining towns of Plerce County, while the other line runs straight west to Auburn, midway between Tacoma and Seattle. A letter which Tracy mailed on the out- skirts of Portland is said to have been addressed to one of his pals at Palmer. As Farmer Johnson furnished Tracy with a revolver, ammunition and groceries yesterday it would seem that the only thing heé now needs outside of absolute liberty is ready cash. It is the belief of several officers and a number of railroad men that Tracy with one or more pals is more than likely to provide hiniself by holding up one of the passenger trains in the Cascade Mountains. Three overland trains in each direction pass Palmer and five of them during the evening or night. Just above Palmer the railroad ascends course of Green River. Eagle Gorge and *Maywood above Pal- mer are lonely spots where several dar- ing holdups occurred during the boom times ten years ago. As Tracy would have only to stop u train and announce his fdentity to put every passengér under his domination it is figured that such a feat will be less daring in every way than several of his escapades. Sheriff Cudihee has to-night sent deputies to Palmer with the object of heading Tracy off. The Northern Pacific is also taking precau- tions to protect its overland passenger trains. Reports from Christopher prior to yes- terday reported two houses robbed. Noth- ing was taken but food and daily papers. It is believed in Tacoma that Tracy’s con- federates were in that vicinity ahead of the outlaw. el S HATES A BROTHER-INAAW. Motive of Tracy in the Northwestern Country Is Explained. EVERETT, Wash., July 10.—Thirst for blood of one of his own family, it is be- lieved, will eventually cost Harry Tracy, the Oregon escaped convict and outlaw, his liberty, if not his life. Pursued’ by bloodhounds and hundreds of armed men over more than 500 miles of rough country and wilderness, journeying as high as six- ty-five miles in one day, without sleep and without food, Tracy has practically sacri- ficed all hope of escape to fulfill a vow he made two years ago, when he swore to kill his brother-in-law because of the evi- dence the latter gave which convicted Tlrficy and sent him to the Oregon penitén- tiary. : Tracy's brother-in-law is a prosperous ranchman near Monroe, sixteen miles from this city. Knowledge of Tracy’'s im- placable hatred for his brother-in-law en- abled the Snohomish County officers defi- nitely to locate the fugitive near Bothell after his daring escae‘e up the Sound. It was toward Monroe that Tracy was going when_he encountered the Sheriff’s posse July 3 and was forced to turn back in his tracks after the battle. His brother-in- law's connection with the sentencing of Tracy, it is believed, will eventually lead to Tracy's downfall, for those who are ac- quainted with his desperate character say he will never leave this section of the country until he has fulfilled his vow. The home of the brother-in-law is care- fully, watched and a guard will remain in the neighborhgod until Tracy is finally taken or killed. \ Exciting Chase After Youth. While Deputy Sheriff Connors: of the ‘Whittier Reform School was passing along Market street, near Montgomery, last evening he sighted Charles Aubertin, a lad who had escaped from the institu- tion last April after serving four years of a seven-year sentence. An exciting chase followed, and it was not until some citizens knocked the wind out of Auber- iin, at the corner of Geary and Stockion streets, that he was captured. bl patig s iiation.

' * OGN U i QOO0 v T UL £ SCENE OF THE MINE DISAS- TER WHICH HAS COST HUN- DREDS OF LIVES, = —e BAKER 15 SHOT BY HIGHWAYMAN James Gordon IsStopped by Footpad Under Electric.i ght. James Gordon, a young baker, while on his way home about 10 o'clock last night, was shot by a footpad who had made an unsuccessful attempt to rob him. Gordon, who is about 22 years of age, resides at 471 Valencia street. It iIs his habit to go down town of an evening and return on a Valencia-street car. Contrary to his usual custom he started to walk home last night. He had just passed Fifteenth street. and was within a few doors of his home when a man, whose face was partly concealed by a black rhask; stepped from a blind alley leading from Valencia street and point- ing a pistol at Gordon's head ordered him to throw up his hands. Gordon could nardly believe that the man was in earnest, considering the lighted condition of the street, and re- piied, “No 1 won’'t.”” In -answering Gor- don withdrew his hand from his trousers pocket and immediateiy the footpad fired a shot and ran away. Gordon, too, ran, but after going a few feet turned and saw his assailant dash down Valencia street and into Fifteenth. The shooting attracted several' people, who were on the block at the time of the bold attack and they approached Gordon to ascertain its cause. Gordon told his story in a few words. At first he did not fully realize what had happened and only knew that he was shot when he saw blood trickling from a wound in his shoulder. After being examined at Coffin's drug | store at Sixteenth and Valencia streets, Gordon walked to the Railroad Hospital, at Fourteenth and Mission streets, to be tredted. An examination by Dr. Carson showed that the bullet had taken effect in the left side between the third and fourth ribs, and had lodged under the left axilla, where it was located by an X-ray. After having his wound dressed, Gordon was sent to his home. In telling of his experience, Gordon said that it was only when he heard the shot that he believed that the hold-up was mgre than a joke. Several of the houses on the block were lighted, and two doors from where the shooting occurred an undertaking estab- lishment was brilliantly lighted and filled with people. The footpad is described as about 5 feet 4 inches tall and about 20 vears of age. 2 Gordon has been a resident of thig city for about two years, and for the lask six months has been employed as a baker in the Globe bakery, on Sixteenth street near Valencia. ‘While at Cape Town, en route to Cali- fornla, Gordon says that he was held up at a pistol's point and robbed of a few shillings. At his place of employment Gordon bears an excellent reputation. —_— Life on Stage Brings Death. Arthur Hunter, aged 9 years, fell from an ice wagon on June 2{ and broke his |leg.

CROWING CROPS SHOW A DECLINE Preliminary Returns In- dicate an Increase in Acreage. - e e Winter and Spring Wheat Are Several Points Lower Than in 1901. WASHINGTON, July 10.—Preliminary returns to the statistician of the Depart- ment of Agriculture on the acreagé of corn planted indicate an increase of about 3,520,000 acres, or 3.9 per cent, on the area harvested last year. The average condition of the growing crep on July 1 was 87.5, as compared with | SL3 on July 1, 1901, §9.5 at the correspond- ing date in 1900, and a ten-year average of 83.2. The average condition of winter wheat improved during June nine-tenths of one | point, standing on July 1 at 77, or 113 poinis below the condition on July 1, 1901, 3.8 points below that at the corresponding date in 1900 and 2.4 points below the ten- vear average. It fell off during July two points in Caiifornia. The average condition of spring wheat declined 8 points during June, standing at 92.4 on July 1, as compared with 9.6 period in 1900, and -a ten-year average o 35.8. The decline amounted to 4 points in ‘Washington. £ The condition of spring and -winter wheat combined on July 1 was 829, compared with L1 on July 1, 1901; 69.8 on July 1, 1900, and 76.7-at the corresponding date in 1899. The ymount of wheat remaining in the hands %l farmers on July 1 is_estimated at’abcut 52,440.000 busheis, or 7 per cent of the crop of last year. RYE AND BARLEY IMPROVE. ‘The average condition of the oat crop on July 1 was 921, as compared with $0.5 last month, 53.7 on July 1, 191, 5.5 at the corresponding date in 190 and a ten-year average of §7.3. The average condition of barley is 33.7, against 9.6 one month ago, 91.2 on July .. 1,191, 76.3 at. the corresponding date in 100 and a ten-year average of 7.1 All the principal barley producing States, ex- cept New York and California—in which States improvements amounting to 1 and 4 points respectively were noted—show a slight decline in condition during the menth. Notwithstanding this decline, however, the present average condition in every important State is above the ten- year average. ‘The average condition of winter rye Is 1.2, as compared with 53.6 on July 1, 1901, 89.6 at the corresponding date in 1900 and a ten-year average of $3.2. Each of the principal rye producing States shows an improvement in condition during the past | month. The average condition of spring rye is 82.3, as compared with 93.3 on July 1, 1901, 65.7 at the corresponding date in 1900 and a ten-year average of §1.9. POTATOES SHOW INCREASE, The acreage of potatods is 3.5 per cent or about 100,00 acres greater than last year. Of the twenty-eight States and Territories reporting, twenty . show in- creases and eight increased acreages. The average condition of potatoes on July 1 was 92.9, as compared with 87.4 on July 1, 191, 9.3 at the carresponding date in 190 and a tea-year average of 57.3 Reports of the hay crop are very favor- able, an improvement in condition being noted during June in nearly every impor- tant hay producing State. ‘While there has been a general decline in apples and peaches compared with the last month, reports of those fruits from almost every important State indicate that .more than an average crop of each of them will be harvested. The condition of grapes is very good, and it is quite probable that the crop will be as large as that of any ordinary year. t OF THE PACIFIC COAST Gross Receipts at San Francisco Post- office During June Show a Marked Increase.

Give me 2 man broken down from dissipation, hard work or worry, from any cause which has sapped his vi- tality. Let him follow my advice fcr three months and I will make him as vigorous in every respect as any man of his age. I will not promise to make a Hercules of a man who was never intended by nature to be strong and sturdy. Even that man I can make better than he is: but the man who has been strong and has lost his strength I can make as good as he ever was. T can-give back to any man what he has lost by violation of the laws of na- ture. A man who is nervous, whose brain and body are weak, who sleeps badly. awakes more tired than when he went to bed, who is easily discouraged, in- clined to brood over imaginary troubles, who has lost ambition and energy to tackle hard problems, lacks the animal electricity which the Dr. McLaughlin Electric Belt supplies. 2y aEeg The whole force of vitality in your body is dependent upon your animal electricity. When you lose that by draining the system in any manner my Belt will replace it, and will cure you. Mr. Harry U. Jackson, Valleton, Cal., writes October 1: “Although you are a stranger to me, my heart warms toward you as a great benefactor and friend and I am more than grateful to you. Already I can feel the vigor of new life in my body; no aches and no pains. I wish you every success in your work. Letters like that tell a story which means a great deal to a sufferer. They are a beacon light to the man who has become discouraged from useless doc- toring. I get such letters every day.
