Tho test of tho drill In Pendleton

WEST NOT IN CHICAGO.
Man Supposed to Have Gone to Claim

fallen heir to ?t000, Is saiu to sun

to be a fake.
wpst is a son of Peter West, or

notoriety during the past several
months through being jailed in wana
Walla as a bigamist but later cam?
clear or tins cnargo ana whs uwi buh-

assaulting Jailor Maloney in an at
tempted jail break. He was reieaseu
only a few weeoks ago and Immedia
tely left for tho Windy City, so ho
announced, to Bettle up an estate and
claim a legacy of $5000 left him by
a rich relative. This announcement
is now thought only to have been
mnde to hide him from the gaze of
the people for a short time. Later,
however, a letter was received ny a
frioTiri in Walla Walla, announcing
that bo bad reached his destination
and would remain there for some
time. Now romes tho report from
Wenatcheo that ho has been there
and the officers are looking for him
for impersonating an officer and using
the authority of such position to iur

he disappeared suddenly and a later
