ever seen In this state. From 11 to 1
o'clcck today the remains lay In state
at the family home. At 1:30 o'clock
all lodge members assembled at
the home and at 2 o'clock the
funeral services were opened at
the First Methodist church. Rev,

city was ln-an uproar this same Chap

the sidewalk In the direction away front
the scene of the assassination, and upon
reaching the corner he stopped, placed
hia fingers to to Is lips, whistled twice,
then walked on again with greater ra
pidity. "I know things about the Pettlbone
ense which will causa my assassination
within ten days if J-go on the wltneas
stand and tell them declared Harvey
Brown to Edward Flynn, the Saturday
evening before he waa slain. Brown
was afraid to tell what he knew and
had determined to go to California to
avoid being present at tha next federa
tion trial.
Mynn and Brown were working about
their door yarda. Brown looked dread
fully downhearted and glum wlhch was
so unusual for the ex-aherlff whoae

by replying: "I've got a good deal to
think about Just now. I am afraid I
am not going to live long. I'm spotted
and If I ever testify to things I know
in the Pettlbone case, I will not escape
assassination for 10 days afterwards.
Few people think that Brown was
connected with the Western Federa

It being public property of courae, that
he aided Captain Swain get Harry
Orchard and aided Detective Thlel of

Brown atarted for hia placer mines
at Stlce'a gulch several times during
the past summer when he failed to
reach his announced destination. It
was. during these brief disappearances
tbat he la supposed to have been delv
ing In the Pettlbone case. On one occa
sion Brown started for Walla Walla
with a team of horses which he de
clared he intended to sell In the Wash
ington city. He said he would be gone
a few days when he departed. Days
rolled Into weeks and at the end of
nearly, a month when Mrs. Brown was
nearly frantic with fright he returned
to Baker City, -stating that he had been
working upon a header wagon In the
eastern Oregon wheat fields all the
time he waa gone.
Nothing further was said about
Brown a experience In the wheat fields
at his home, but It Is learned today
that he was spying upon some men
who were posing aa haveat hands. Brown
Intimated that he got aome of hia moat
valuable Information during that trip.
It la eertain that the wages ef a har

drawing his attention and It waa at a

Among the cltlsens of Baker City

C. M. Mullen, who was Intimately
acquainted with Brown and had often
talked with him, Is in Portland today
and he, among the others is of this
oeinreth j Mr. Mullen says that the
greater nfioTty of the cltlsens of Ba
ker City believe that the assassination
waa brought about owing to the ener
gies of the former officer to put on
the lid.
"Mr. Brown was desirous of doing
all in his power to drive the tougher
element out of the city and his efforts
were appreciated by every better clti
sen of the town," Mr. Mullen said this
morning. "Owing to this fact I believe
that this developed Into the plot which
ended his life.

the Miner's federation had anything to
