INDEPENDENCE. Or.. Oct. 18. (Staff
correspondence.) Mike Niehatlch and
Albert Murray, the two escaped convlcU,
who eluded the pose after the pitched
battle on the banks of the Lucklamute
River Sunday morning, were captured
near the ranch of Lou Stapleton, four
miles south of Buena Vista, this after
noon. This completes the man hunt for the
five convicts who overpowered their
. guards and escaped from the prison au
thorities Friday afternoon. One Is now
dead, another Is dying, two are seriously
wounded and the fifth, Albert Murray,
has forfeited all privileges of a trusty.
Farmer Gives Alarm.
Niehatlch and Murray were this after
noon found concealed In a straw stack
by a little boy and were captured after
a running" fight of a mile across the fields.
About the middle of the afternoon a man
named Kaiser, accompanied by his young
son. went out to burn an old straw
stack on the Bowers farm. The boy play
ing about' the stack, climbed to the top,
when he was badly frightened to see two
men crawl out of the straw, slide down
the aide of the stack and run across the
field. Kaiser realised at once that tha
boy had found the two outlaws, and sent
a messenger over to tha farmhouse of
W. A. Scott, who telephone to Marshal
Flaegel at Independence.
The Fit chard automobile, driven by
Ralph Fltchard. accompanied by Marshal
Flaegel and Floyd Williams, was sent In
a hurry to the Scott farm, about three
miles from the city. Here Scott, who bad
kept the outlaws in sight, joined the
party.
Hall of Bullets Sent After Fugitives.
The posse was forced soon to leave
the automobile and from that time on it
was an even footrace for a while. When
within hearing, the posse shouted to the
fleeing men to stop. Murray surrendered
and was sent back to Independence In
charge of Farmer Stapletoo. who had
Joined the chase, while Williams. Flae
gel. Fltchard and Scott continued bn the
trail of Niehatlch. The posse shouted re
peatedly to the fellow to stop, but the
warnings were unheeded and several
members of the posse opened Are.
The desperate outlaw was seen to stum
ble and fall, but he was almost instantly
on- his feet and running like a deer for
the underbrush. In a hall of bullets he
gained the shelter of the trees, and the
pursuers paused for an instant before
plunging Into the timber. While deciding
upon a plan of action. Niehatlch shouted
from the shelter of the underbrush that
he would surrender.
Bleeding, Convict Surrenders.
Under cover of a half dozen rifles, the
wounded and bleeding convict emerged
from the brush, with his hands held high
over his head. From his wright wrist
there flowed a stream of blood and from
his right hip another stream trickled.
The members of the posse searched the
man, bound up his wounds temporarily
and rushed him to the city, where he
was attended by Dr. Butler.
A peculiar feature of the case is that
the Colt's automatic revolver which was
stolen from one of the guards when the
convicts made their get-away, could not
be found on either of the men capture
today. During the chase of more than
a mile across the fields, the hunted out
laws fired no: a single shot, and If they
bad the gun at any time they must have
thrown it away before they were d!scov
ered in the strawstack. None of the
convicts will admit that lie had the gun,
but the officers are of the opinion that
when the ammunition for the revolver
gave out the weapon was thrown away.
Ntchatich's wounds are only flesh
wounds and not serious in any
respect. He maintained his sullen
disposition throughout, and even when
Warden Frank Curtis took htm In charge,
he absoslutely refused to utter a sound,
either of complaint about his wounds
or to answer any of the questions put
to him by the officers.
On the other hand, Murray, who Is the
youngest Of the quintet, did not hcssltate
to tell the officers of his movements.
After the battle Sunday morning, ac
cording to Murray, he and Nichatlah.
escaped Into the brush which ' grows
thickly on the peninsula formed by the
Junction of the Lucklamute with the
Willamette River, and the two remained
there all night and until this afternoon.

TACOMA. Wash., Oct. 18. (Special.)
While adjusting a new flagpole on
the courthouse late this afternoon, the

Tremendous Ovation to Count, Who
Gives United States Credit for
Success Greatest Feat
Since Dumont's.
PARIS. Oct. IS. Count de Lambert,
French aeroplanlst. Just before dark to
night accomplished one of the most re
markable and daring feats yet credited
to heavier-than-alr machines. Starting
from the aerodrome at Juvissy, he flew
to Paris, about IS miles. After maneuver
ing over the city at an average height
of 400 feet, he ascended In gradually di
minishing circles and passed several
hundred feet above the Eifel tower. He
then returned to Juvissy.
Ovation Given on Return.
Thousands who watched him hardly
could credit their senses when they saw
the aeroplane; a tiny object, gliding
swiftly far above the tower, and the sen
sation created was more profound than
when Santos Dumont circled the structure
In his dirigible balloon in 1900.
Count de Lambert was given a tremen
dous ovation on his return to Juvissy.
Orville Wright rushed forward and wrung
the hand of the aviator as he alighted.
He was led to the pavilion, where his
health was drunk, the crowd meantime
cheering lustily and crying:
"Long live Count de Lambert!" "Long
live Russia." De Lambert fbeing of Rus
sian extraction. The Count held up his
hand and shouted:
Gives Credit to America.
"Cry long live the United States., for It
is to her that I owe this success."
" The aviator said that the only incon
venience he suffered was from the throb
bing of the engines and from difficulty
in seeing toward the end In the gloom.
The official time of the flight was 49
minutes, 39 seconds. The distance was
roughly estimated at 81 miles and the
height varied from 300 to. 1300 feet.
Count de Lambert and Mr. Wright left
the field together In an automobile.
Dragoons were obliged to clear a way
through the crowd. In which there were
many enthusiasts who showed a desire
to carry the aviator in triumph on their
shoulders. .

Simplicity Main Point of New Con
' tract With Passengers Stop
Over Privileges Cut Out.
CHICAGO. Oct. 18. (Special.) A feeling
of relief has been experienced by the
Western roads over the way the ques
tion, which for more than four years
has baffled all attempts ' at solution,
seems at last to be approaching a settle
ment throughout the country and has
Just been finally disposed of, as far as
the Western Passenger Association lines
are concerned.
The difficulty which had so long proved
Insurmountable was presented by the in
ability of the railroads to arrive at an
agreement, as to a standard form of ticket
contract to cover all contingencies. The
roads of the Western Passenger Associa
tion have finally signified their acquies
cence to a revised report of the commit
tee on standard ticket contracts and steps
will begin immediately for the gradual
substitution of the new forms of tickets.
' It Is understood that Central Passenger
Association roads have likewise taken an
affirmative action in the matter.
. The new . ticket will be conspicuous by
Its simplicity. Efforts will be directed to
eliminating , every useless word and
making the ticket so plain Sand brief as
to be understood by any passenger. It is
proposed to cut out nearly all stopover
privileges how permitted: to cut out all
verbiae and make the ticket a plain con
tract by the railroad and Its connections
to carry a passanger from one point to
certain other points for a certain sum of
money within a certain time.
DEATH THINS GRAND ARMY
Net Decrease in Number of Pension

WASHINGTON. Oct. .18. Death's in
vasion of the fast-thlnnipg ranks of the
war veterans caused 48,312 names to be
dropped from the pension rolls of the
United States last year. Of this number
S2.S31. were survivors of . the Civil War.
The total loss to the pension roll from
all causes was 61.581.
. In striking contrast to these figures,
comprised in the annual report of Ves
pasian "Warner. Commissioner ot Pen
sions, is the statement that the Govern
ment paid out in pensions in the fiscal
year ended June 30, 1909, $161,930,703, which
the Commissioner declares is the largest
amount ever disbursed for pensions in one
year.
Summarized, the report shows these
facts: Number of pensioners at the be

new pensioners added to th-? roll, 46,088;
pensioners on roll at close of the year,
946,194, a net decrease of 5,493; survivors of

Emperor Nicholas to Avoid Switzer
land on Way to France.
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 18. An Im
portant and unexpected change of itin
erary haj been made on the eve of Em
peror Nicholas' departure for Italy. It
is understood the change was due in part
to recent criticism of the Emperor in
the Bavarian Landtag, but as well to
other and deeper reasons which, accord
ing to the best information obtainable
here, resulted in the Emperor's decision
to avoid Bavaria and Switzerland and
make a long circuit through Eastern
France to reach his destination.
The new route chosen is by way of
bdessa, Posen. Frankfort and Besancon,
France, and involves a railroad Journey
of nearly 2000 miles.
A meeting between the Emperor and

NEW TORK. Oct. 18. W. R. Hearst,
independent nominee tor Mayor, and
Otto T. Bannard, Republican nominee.
both of whom are supporting the fusion
ticket although rivals for the mayoralty,
dashed through Harlem tonight and de
livered a series of rapid-fire speeches in
support of their' candidacy. Hearst made
four addresses and Bannard three.
Bannard confined himself to business
issues.' Hearst spoke at length and con
tinued his denunciation of William J
Gaynor, Democratic nominee, although
he had time to refer- to- Bannard as a
machine condidate.
Hearst Fights Both Machines.
"I have got Into this light to death with
Gaynor and his Tammany machine and
Bannard and his Woodruff machine." he
said, "and I do not want Mr. Bannard
to forget In the heat and excitement of
the campaign that he is Just as much
a machine candidate as Judge Gaynor.
He may not be the candidate of the
same machine, but he is the candidate
of the same kind of a machine, and I,
for one, cannot see the difference in the
blackness between the Tammany kettle
and the Woodruff pot.
"Mr. Bannard was not named at the
fusion conference. The fusion confer
tnce was broken up. He was not even
named "at the Republican convention,
That had not yet been held. He was
appointed and annointed the candidate
of the Noble Order of "Woodruffiana
and created a knight of the Waistcoat
at Jack's in the early hours of a Sep
tember morning.
Trusts Would Win Either Way.
"Now, Mr. Bannard is not only not
an Independent candidate, but he is not
even an anti-Tammany candidate. If
Mr. Parsons' statement of the deal be
tween Cannon and the Republican ma
chine with Murphy and the Tammany
machine can be. believed, Mr. Bannard
was named, Dot to defeat Tammany, but
to elect Tammany. If Mr. Bannard is
elected, Mr. Woodruff's -pet trusts will
get the city, and if Judge. Gaynor Is
elected, the Tammany pet thieves will
get the city."
Hearst defended himself against Gay
nor's remark that he . was Indorsed by
Tammany when he ran for Governor
against Hughes.

Juror Stricken After Many Weeks of
Work Tedious Task Must
All Be Gone Over.
LOS ANGELES. Oct. IS. Such a long
train of mishaps has followed the progress
of the trial for embezzlement of William
H. Carlson, president of. the defunct Con
solidated Bank, of this city, that the of
ficials are almost ready to believe in the
connection of some sort of hoodoo with
the case. A new start with a new Jury
must be made because one of the Jurors
in the case is very Jll and hopes for his
recovery are slight.
Volumes of testimony, covering sev
eral weeks' time, already have been taken
but another body of 12, men will have to
be impanelled and all the tedious work
gone over again.
The late Justice E. B. Selph, after hear
ing the cases through several months of
preliminaries, was suddenly stricken ill
and died without completing any one of
them. While Justice Stevens was hear
ing the charge upon which he. finally held
Carlson to answer to the Superior Couit,
death In Carlson's own family caused a
long delay.
Another death in Carlson's family oc
curred after the trial had commenced in
the Superior Court, causing another delay.
With five weeks' work done, J. C. Davis,
one of the Jurors, was stricken with ill
ness in the courtroom two weeks ago.
For a time his life was despaired of.
Hardly had physicians reported that he
would be able to resume the case to
morrow when announcement came that
George L. Reynolds, another Juror, was
seriously- ill. Judge Davis, therefore,
issued an order today for a new Jury
to be summoned tomorrow morning.

That Margaret llllngton will become the
wife of Edward Bowes, the young Ta
coma millionaire, as soon as she Is set
free from her present husband, Daniel
Frohman. by the divorce proceedings
pending at Reno, is the declaration of
persons who know the Bowes well.
Whether the wedding will be held here,
at Oakland or at Miss Illlngton's old
home at Bloomington. 111., is not known
here, but present plans, according to re
port, are for the event to take place in
November.
Mr. Bowes, when asked concerning the
question, loses patience and declines to
give Information of any sort. His friends,
a few of them at least, are more talk
ative. Longs for Simple Life.
"I would rather darn my husband's
socks than have the applause of the
world." This saying was attributed to
the actress last Winter when divorce
proceedings were first hinted. If she
persists in. darning socks in Tacoma
she must do so In one of the most pre
tentious mansions in the city. Mr.
Bowes recently purchased the Judge
Grosscup residence, one of the ftnest
in the city, located In the fashionable
district and, Judging from the im
provements going on, Miss llllngton
may wield her needle In a palace fit

Another recent purchase by th
groom-to-be is a team of high-bred
horses. Miss llllngton is particularly
fond of horses. Tacoma society has a
warm feeling for 'Miss Illngton, and'
she undoubtedly will be received, with
open arms.
