TACOMA, July 13.—It is now consid- ered certain that Tracy, the outlaw, is in hiding on the Natchaz trail.

Hinckley of this city re- turned to his home this evening as mys- teriously as he disappeared from San Francisco May 21, when all trace of him was lost and it was feared that he had met with-foul play or that he had become demented and wandered away. Hinckley left here May 15 ostensibly to | investigate the merits of a mining claim in Inyo County or Nevada, and supposed | to be owned by San Francisco parties. He spent the night of the 16th with friends on | Valencia street and expected to leave on | the following morning for the mines. A few days later his wife received an un- signed letter saying that he was burled in a ninetv-foot shaft that had caved In on him while he was investigating its con- aftion. The location of the mine was not given and from that time nothing further was heard of the missing man. No faith was placed in the letter and search was instituted by detectives and by organiza- tions of which Hinckley was a member. On his return this evening the attor- ney was in a sound mental condition and in cxcellent health, but he would not talk of his adventures, saying he was bound by an oath_the penalty of which was death should he divulge any information as to where he had been and who had detained him. He admitted that he had buen in the hands of a gang of men who expected to obtain from him $10,00, which they thought he would carry with him for the purchase of an interest in the mine. He carried but few valuables with him, and only $100 in cash, all of which he was permitted to retain.

LOS ANGELES, July 18.—The mystery surrounding the old man known as Charles Hill, who died at the Good Sa- maritan Hospital in this city May 17| and to whose credit $142,000 was subse— quently found in a savings bank, has been solved. Leon F. Moss, attorney for the Public | Administrator, returned to-day from | Boston, bringing positive proof that the nman's name was Salem Charles, and that he was a member of a family which has been prominent in Massachusetts for | nearly 200 years. The first_cle that the old man’s name | was not Charles Hill was found in an| old Bible in*his trunk. On the fly leaf | of this was a dim address, which was | magnified umtil it could be partly read. The last name, Charles, was clear, and | the address was Brinfleld, Mass. The authorities telegraphed there and learned that one of the old members of the Charles family had been missing for | years, and then Moss went there. He | | found court records and numerous other documents, the handwriting of which was identical with writings left by Hill, and | he also discovered old family pape:s which Hill had copied, the copies having | been found among his effects. | The estate will be Givided among eight | heirs of the deceased, all nephews and | nleces.

Littlefisld's Bill§ May Be Given Administration’s Support. Special Dispatch to The Call. CALL BUREAU, 146 G STREET, W., WASHINGTON, July from Representative Charles E. Little- fleld, received by friends in Washington, N. 18.—Letters | have served to remove much of the doubt and mystery surrounding the President’s So-called anti-trust crusade, in which the Maine Representative Is said te be cast by Mr. Roosevelt for the leading part in Con- gress. Littlefleld has not been asked by the President to lead the administration forces in Congress in a Rough Rider cru- sade against great combinations of cap- ital, nor has he been asked to frame a bill' for the regulation and publicity of trusts, to be known distinctly as an ad- ministration measure. The plan, so far as any plan has been formed, is for the President to repeat in his next message his recommendations as to trusts, at probably greater length and with more emphasis. Littlefleld will con- tinue to urge the report of his bills of the last session in a modified form, or embody their provisions in one measure and intro- duce it early in December. Only to the extent that the administration is anxious for moge trust legislation will Littlerield's bills be known as administration meas es. Lictlefield will aim to establish beyond all question of doubt Federal control of all corporations engaged in commerce be- tween the States and to broaden the scope of the Sherman anti-trust law. his once established he will seek a sys- tem of publicity that will enable the Gov ernment at all times to obtain informa- tion of the standing and the doings of cor- ations_engaged In_ interstate traffle. a stem of tax on such corporations doing an interstate business as have outstand- ing capital unpaid in whole or in part, the prevention of the indiscriminate increase of cavital stock of such corporations w less such increase appears. to the Goverr ment authorities warranted by finaneial standing. Littlefleld’s ideas of establishing unques- tionable Federal control over combina- tions -dqing an interstate business were largely embodied in the bill introduced last session to amend the Sherman anti- trust law, and this bill will form the basis of next winter’s effort to put more power into the Sherman law. It amends the first section of the Sher- man act, under which Attorney General Knox proceeded against the beef trust, by making a combination or conspiracy in restraint of trade a crime Instead of a misdemeanor. It also amends the second and third sections by making a conviction of violation punishable by a fine “and” im- prisonment instead of a fine “‘or” imp onment, thus removing the option of the courts. The passage by Congress of such legis- lation, whether or not the administration stands stoutly behind :!—l)’;al is alxl'ml]bz[ story. Next'winter's session Wi as! onl)'yabnur. two and a half months. Dur- ing the long session just closed Littlefield. after persistent effort, was unable to get even a vote in committee on either of his bills. No preposition for further trust leg- islation was ever hinted at by the Repub- lcans in the Senate, and when the pub- licity feature of the President was pro- posed as an amendment to the census bill the entire Republican majority voted against it. _ LOSES HIS POSITION AS WELL AS HIS COIN Dr. Joseph Muir, Secretary of Amei- ican Legation in Stockholm, Compelled to Resign.
