ON -TRAIL OF TRAGY
Washington Sheriff is Hot
After the Fugitive. -
OUTLAW STOPS AT RITZVILLE
Cudihee, of KInjr County, Again in
the Chase Whole Country la
Aroused and Every Trail
Is Being: Guarded.
SPOKANE, Aug. 2. An Almira special
to the Spokesman-Review says: .
Outlaw Harry Tracy Is believed to be
traveling southeast from this place In the
direction of Ritzville. A farmer named
Perkins, living three miles southeast of
Almira, saw a man with two horses and
two rifles, pissing his place In a south
easterly direction early this morning.
Sheriff De Bolt, of Douglas County, ar
rived In Almira shortly before noon to
day, and on hearing the story left for the
Perkins ranch. He has not been seen
since. Sheriff Cudihee, of Seattle, ar
rived In Almira from Wilson Creek, via
Coulee City, late tonight.
The fact that Sheriff De Bolt has not
been heard from leads him to believe
that he is hot on the trail. Cudihee left
for the Perkins ranch with a team late to
night. Cudihee firmly believes that Tracy
passed through Coulee City about 11:30
last night. A man riding one horse, with
a nackhorse following, rode up the main
street of that town and was seen by sev-A
eral residents.
There Is also .a story that Tracy was
seen near the Welsh Church at 3 o'clock
this morning, but this cannot be verified.
Sheriff Gardner, of Lincoln County, Is
co-operating with Sheriff Dc Bolt in the
chase. Do Bolt Is to scour the country
between Almira and Ritzville. while Sher
iff Gardner is to guard the northern route.
Gardner has sent four men to guard the
ferries across the Columbia. The whole
country is aroused.
COMPANION WITH TRACY.
Several People Surr Him Near Wen
atchee With Another Man.
WENATCHEE. Wash., Aug. 2. Further
details have been secured concerning the
movements of Convict Harry Tracy, who
crossed the Columbia River at Moses
Coulee ferry. IS miles south of Wenatchee,
yesterday morning. Just how Tracy ar
rived In this vicinity is not certain, but
it is supposed that after escaping from
the Sheriffs posse near Palmer he came
over the mountains by the Snoqualmle
trail. Thence he must have turned north
along the road via Blewltt, which leads
into Wenatchee Valley. How he man
aged to evade recognition Is a problem, as
this road Is the main thoroughfare over
the mountains, and .he must have been
seen by many persons.
When he arrived here he was mounted
on a good saddle horse, and was" leading
a pack horse, with a complete camp
equipment. Such an outfit, however, Is
so common that Tracy would readily pass
as a sheepherder or prospector, without
question. It was about 10 o'clock yester
day morning when City Councilman W.
A. Sanders, who was spending the day at
the farm of his son-in-law, Sam Mac
Eldovvncy. was approached by a man who '
had just ridden up on horseback. Sanders
was helping to pack fruit in a packing
shed. The man had the 'appearance of a
sheepherder, such as pass the farm fre
quently, and Sanders, without raising his
eyes from his work, nodded and said
"Good day;"
Naturally many rumors are rife as to
the -road which Tracy followed before his
arrival at the MacEldowney farm Thurs
day. One of these, which may have foun
datl6n In fact. Is the claim of several per
Eons near town to have seen Tracy cross
ing the valley with a companion. Cer
tainly two men passed within half a mile
of town early yesterday morning, one of
whom waa mounted on a buckskin horse
and leading a packhorse. Between Moses
Coulee and Spokane, across Douglas and
Lincoln Counties, Is a stretch of country
where a man well mounted and knowing
his ground could elude pursuit Indefi
nitely. The difficult part of the route would be
crossing the Grand Coulee, which Is Im
passable except at certain points. East
of the Grand Coulee, along Lake Creek,
is a region of volcanic formation, known
as the Potholes. If Tracy is heading for
this region he must have received Infor
mation from some one familiar with the
country, as he Is not known to have visit
ed this region before. Cattle and sheep
men who are familiar with the ground af
fect a disbelief in Tracy's attempt to
work eastward. They say if he actually
crossed Moses Coulee ferry he will recross
the river and return to the divide between
Chelan and Kittitas Counties, along which
he could work back into the mountains,
"where he could remain safely until driven
out by the Winter's snow.
Sheriff Keller absolutely refuses to give
any information as to his plans. No posso
has left the city, but the Sheriff has been
using the long-distance telephone and
telegraph freely.
Messengers have been sent to Ferry and
other down-river points, but owing to the
distance and rough roads, no word can be
expected from there before noon tomor
row.
Cudlhec Again After Tracy. '
SPOKANE, Aug. 2. Sheriff Cudihee, of
King County, is In the city. It Is under
stood that he will go to Lincoln County
to Join in the chase after Tracy.
INGRAM LEAVES HOSPITAL.
Convict Who Tried to Prevent the
Escape of Tracy and Merrill.
SALEM. Aug. 2. (SpeclaL)-Frank In
gram, the prisoner who was shot by
David Merrill at the time of the outbreak
at the Penitentiary, left the prison hos
pital today. His left leg was amputated
above the knee, and he walks on crutches,
As he is unable to mike a living at pres
ent by working, he Is raffling off a splen
did set of steel hearth utensils made by
him while confined in the Penitentiary.
When his means will permit he will pur
chase an artificial limb and engage In
some useful occupation. During his 10
years! incarceration, Ingram learned the
blacksmith's trade, but the loss of his
limb will probably prevent him from con
tinuing in that work. Ingram grappled
with Merrill while the latter was In the
act of firing at a prison guard, and the
bullet passed through his knee. His he
role act led to his pardon by the Governor
and won him the sympathy of the people.
He Is receiving temporary aid here from
people who are charitably disposed.

PSYCHE MINE TO FRONT
BAKER COUNTY PROPERTY IS TO
HAVE A LARGER MILL. .
Capacity of Present One Will Be
Doubled $200,000 Refused for a.
Claim Bought for $1000.
SUMPTER. Or Aug. 2. (Special.)-The
Psyche mine, one of the latest properties
in the Greenhorn district,' is to put in a
20-stamp mill before the close of the
season. Judge J. K. Fawcett, of. Omaha,
the owner of the mine, passed through
Sumpter yesterday, and made known that
he would put in the machinery.
Something over a year ago the Psyche
could have been purchased for $1)500. Judge
Fawcett refused $200,000 for it this Spring.
When development began, the outcrop
ping Vein was IS Inches wide. A shaft has
been sunk 130 feet, where the vein has
widened to 33 feet, all pay ore, four feet
of which runs from SCO to $70 per ton. This
ore body Is one of the most remarkable.
In the district, especially for the shallow I
depth attained. It Is a revelation for the
Greenhorn district, where narrow ledges
are supposed to prevail. All of the ore
in the shaft and a 400-foot drift run from
the bottom Is not free milling, and some
doubt is expressed as to the advisability
of Installing an amalgamation and con
centration plant combined. Judge Faw
cett says he has had tests made in this
respect, satisfying him on the point of
treatment.
A crosscut is being driven on the Psyche
to cut the ledge 100 feet deeper than the
shaft. ThlB will be completed In, about 60
days. Following completion of this work.
It Is the purpose of Judge Fawcett to
start a much deeper crosscut, calculated
to strike the ledge at a vertical depth of
550 feet. This will be the adit level, at
the mouth of which the mill Is to be
erected. Until Its completion, a tram will
be utilized for hauling ore down from tho
first crosscut.
Until further development, 10 stamps
will suffice for the Psycho, but Judge
Fawcett Is confident In the future of the
property and will erect the full 20 at the
beginning, bringing them Into requisition
when needed. Its rapid rise Is the subject
of wide discussion, and causes many old-
timers of the camp, who are always open
for good opportunities, to bewail the day
when they did not snap up the Psyche.
31 ILL FOR MAMMOTH MINE.
Some Very Rich Ore Taken Out at
Baker County Property.
BAKER CITY. Aug. 2. (Special.) Tho
owners of th,e Mammoth mine brought In
a gold bar yesterday which weighs 4G
ounces, and Is worth $18 per ounce. This
gold was taken from 49 tons of ore, which
was taken from the mine In the course of
developmsnt. Tho ore was run through
the Virtue mill. The owners of the Mam
moth will erect a mill for the treatment
of their own ore. just as soon as- the main
shaft Is sunk down deep enough to furnish
sufficient water to supply the mill. There
is plenty of water in the country, but it
has to be pumped from the mines, as
there Is none on the surface. No attempt
has been made to take out ore from this
mine. What has been milled to date Is
ore taken out In the course of developing
the mine and opening up the ore bodies.
LANE COUNTY 3IINE IS SOLD.

EUGENE. Aug. 2. (Special.) The Ex

has been transferred to the Uncle Sam
Mining & Milling Company, the consider
atlon being $11,000. This claim adjoins
other claims owned by the company la
such a manner as to be of great advan
tage in working the entire property. The
Uncle Sam people have been doing a vast
amount of development work during the
past two years, and have just recently
started up their new five-stamp mill,
which Is now being worked to Its full
capacity. Since the purchase of the Ex
celsior it Is announced that the company
will at once proceed with the erection of
another five-stamp mill similar to the ono
already In operation. Miners look for
this property to soon become a producer
equal to the Lucky Boy.
WATER SUPPLY CUT OFF.
One-Fourth of Olympic. Is Also With
out Fire Protection.
OLYMPIA. Wash., Aug. 2. (Special.)
Nearly one-fourth of the residence por
tion of Olympla was cut oft from its
water supply and fire protection, as well
as ingress to the business portion of the
city, by the collapse this morning of a
section of the West Fourth-street bridge.
The bridge that went out Is a trestle
across the head of the bay, and Is tho
only thoroughfare between the main por
tion of the city and West Olymnla, as
well as all the farming section west of
town. The water main was attached to
the stringers of the trestle, and went
out with the section that collapsed. The
bridge had been In a dangerous condition
for a long time, and was not repaired
solely because of the dllatorlnesss of tho
City Council. About 10 days ago tho sup
ports under the south side gave way.
making that side Impassable for pedes
trians. Teams were allowed to use the
bridge until Thursday, when the north
side weakened. A special meeting of tho
City Council was hastily called, and a
repairing crew was put at work yester
day, but they did not succeed In saving
the portion threatened. It went down
with a crash tit 6 o'clock this morning.
Teams cannot now reach West Olympla
except by a detour of 10 miles, by way
of Tumwater. Pedestrians, by following
nearly two miles of railroad trestle, can
get across. The greatest inconvenience
was tho breaking of the water main, as
it will cause a water famine in West
Olympla for several days.
