Trained bloodhounds In care of their
master arrived here from Cottage
Grove, and soon after were given a
acent from a pair of socka which were
found In the fugitive's lonely cabin.
The hounda took the scent and started
over the rough mountain trail In a
westerly direction, followed by the
sheriff and members of the posse.
The country west of dieminin i.
thickly timbered and is traversed by
hundreds of mountain tralla. Many
of these trails lead in the direction of
Granta Pass, while others furnlah a
direct route to the coast
Inquiry has satisfied the officers
that Diamond had made careful prep
arations for the crime and that he la
prepared to stay In the mountain for
weeks If necessary. Only a few daya
ago he purchased 10 boxes of cart
ridges, and theae he carried when he
entered th.e bank. It Is also-sald that
he secretly haa carried food over the
mountain trail leading west of town
for several days, and has the same
oached In some Isolated section, of the

That he will remain In hiding for
several daya before attempting to

PBEPAY WeJHtToN FRUIT
Railroads Take No Chance an Care
That Cannot bald.
Seattle Fruitgrowers throughout
tbe northwest are being notified by
transportation companies that here
after no fruit shipments will be for
warded Unless tbe freight Is paid In
advance or guaranteed by soma re-
apoaaible person or ek
Th action of the railroad companies
Is brought about. It Is aald, by tbe fact
that during the paat season large
mounts of frulta did aot bring enough
n tba market to pay tbe expenae of
transportation.
Tba grower did not feel like digging
down Into his pockets for the amount
of the freight blll.Jo view of the fact
that he had received nothing for his
fruit, and the commission men felt no
obligation toward tbe railroad compan
lea. eo th roads lost out all around.
They will take no chance the coming
season.
