THE MORNING- OREGfONIAN, WEDNESDAY, REPTE3IBER 23r 1914- 13 2 SHOT BY LURKING FOE Ifl DEEP WOODS Forest Near Loganville Is Haunt of Prowler Who Fires Upon Settlers. HIDING GUNMAN WOUNDED Destruction of Wagon Precedes First Attack Death Note Left i Convict Suspected War fare on Three Weeks. That three men (have been shot and a. state of guerilla warfare exists in dense woods near Loganville on the Oregon Electric Railway, was reported to the Portland police yesterday. A mysterious prowler In the woods two weeks agro fired a revolver, from ambush, the bullet striking W. T. Jack man, a woodcutter, in the mouth, tear in? away his lower lip and knocking out two teeth. That was the beginning of the trouble. Thereafter Jackman and his partner, Charles Knapp, car ried rifles when t-iiey went to work. A week ago the same intruder shot twice at Knapp, inflicting a painful flesh wound in the side and cutting his shoulder. Knapp, who returned the fire, says he hit the strange foe in the wrist. Trouble Three Wki Old. The first intimation the men had that anyone was prowling in the woods nearby came three weeks ago when one morning Jackman found the reach cut from his wbrok . The same day Jackman surprised a man lurking in the dense underbrush near where he was working. Jackman and Knapp say they have seen the man on several occasions. They have given a descrip tion of him to Sheriff Esch at Salem. After the first shot was fired by the prowler Knapp found a note scrawled on a piece of yellow paper and pinned to the door of his cabin. "We don't want you, big fellow," the note read. "We want the other man. You'd better get out while you can." Second Man Wounded. ' Shortly after this Knapp, while work ing the woods, saw the prowler and started In pursuit. The man ran through the brush furiously, jumped! across a gully and was lost in the un derbrush. Knapp, rifle in hand, stopped at the gully to see which way the man had gone. Just then a revolver cracked from the underbrush across the little gulch, and a bullet grooved Knapp's left shoulder. Knapp tried to conceal himself while he looked for the man. Another shot was fired, 'the bullet striking Knapp in the left side and coming out his back. This time Knapp saw the glint of the sun on the re volver and fired. The man jumped from the .brush and ran like a deer, holding his wrist. Weak from the loss of blood Knapp walked to Loganville and took the train for Woodburn, where his wounds were dressed. He did not report the case to the Sheriff, however, until later. The only explanation Jackman can offer for the gunman who evidently is after him is that it might be an ex convict. Jackman at one time was a state painter in charge of a gang of convicts, and later was a guard at the penitentiary. He thinks the man might be a convict whose enmity he incurred In some way. of Seattle, is Or., is Washington Annex, at Seattle, is at the Multnomah. George F. Thompson, at the Nortonia. W. C.

Rosin, charged with having worked a woman employe more than 10 hours in one day, came yesterday when the trial was proceeding in Judge Morrow's court with the introduction of the state's witness, Mrs. W.
