THE TWO DEAD STRANGERS
The Stranger Who Disappeared After
the iar Burned Cannot Be Found
Wilson Adheres to Ills Original
Story and Gives Some Information
About Himself Steadfastly lciiki
lie Ever Knowingly Gave Access
to the Car to Any Man But Himself.
Another day has passed without
disclosing the Identity of the man who
was burned In the box car at Foster
Monday morning. Also, the dark
stranger who disappeared immedi
ately after the fire is still a fugitive.
Though the sheriff and his deputies
have made every effort to find him.
they have so far been unsuccessful.
Wilson Adheres to Story.
From behind the bars of the county
Jail this morning Private William
Wilson told the story of his connec
tion with the case, and it was virtu
ally the same as given at the coro
ner's Inquest at Echo.
Though he declared he would say
nothing, the soldier was found to be
a ready conversationalist and answer
ed all questions freely and in a
straightforward manner. He Is a
small, well set up young man of the
physiclal type usually found in the
army. According to his statement he
is but 22 years old, but says his army
age is 26, as he was forced to fake to
enter the service five years ago. He
joined the 25th battery at the time of
Its organization, and has served In the
Philippines. He says his parents are
dead and his home is wherever he Is.
Ate Breakfa Here.
"I slept in the caboose all the way
out from Fort Riley," said Wilson, in
answer to a question. "While the
train was here Monday morning I
came up town and ate breakfast at
a restaurant. When we went on, I
rode In the car with my horses, and
was rubbing one of them down when
I was kicked against the side of the
car. That was Just the other side of
Echo, and I was not knocked uncon
scious. When I looked up there was a
fire about the center of the car, I
did not know anything about a man
being In the other end of the car, but
If I had, I could not have gotten to
him through the fire. I have no idea
who he Is or how he got into the car."
Wilson also firmly denies all knowl
edge of the dark stranger who dlsap
peared, and says he had nothing to
do with such a man. He declares he
alone had a key to the car door and
It was locked whenever he was not
within. Consequently, he knows of
no way in which the burned man
could have entered except through
one of the doors in the end, which
are large enough for a man to crawl
through. The car used was a regu
lar fre'ght car.
Asks Aid of Colonel.
This morning Wilson wired to Col
onel Taylor, at Port Townsend, and
asked him to assist him In getting out
of this trouble. He does not take the
matter very seriously, but at times
manifests some uneasiness. At one
time he said he supposed he would
get about five years, and again he ex
pressed a fear that he would be held
for a couple of months.
During the forenoon two blue-coated
young troopers from the reserva
tion patrol called at the jail for a talk

with Wilson. They wers permitted to
talk with him.
Now Refuses to Talk.
When asked this afternoon as to
how badly his car was burned, Wilson
declared he did not know, and refus
ed to say anything more regarding
his ca. Evidently he had come to
tho conclusion that it was wise for
him to hold his tongue.
From the condition of the burned
body when found It had been. In the
thick of the fire. The skull and one
arm were gone, while other parts
were also missing. An autopsy was
necessary in order to determine the
sex.
The verdict of the coroner's tnrv In
the cremated case was merely that
the unknown man had come to his
death In a manner unknown anil
placed no responsibility upon anyone.
1 no jurors wero tne same as those In
the case of Connelly.
Wilson Seen Here.
While here Mondav morning innt
Wilson was seen In his car by Thomas
Milam, janitor for the Fred Schnel
ter saloon. As he was passing the
car Mllarn noticed the door onen nrt
gave one of the horses some muuL Hn
talked for a moment with Wilson and
says there was another man at the
end of the car. Mllarn talked with
Wilson at the jail vesterdav. unit nk.
wno tne otner man was, to which
the prisoner replied that he was
doubtless a brakeman. However. Ml
lam insists that such was not the
case.
Waiting for Other Man.
According to District . Attorney
fncips, mere is no case against Wil
son at present, and probably nothing
win be done unless the other man Is
found. He had not talked with Wil
son up to this afternoon.
Connelly's Relatives Unknown.
While the officers are searching for
the stranger who disappeared, the
body of John Connelly, who was shot
through being mistaken for the fugi
tlve, still lies in the Rader undertak
ing parlors. Up to this afternoon all
efforts to locate the brother of the
dead man, or other relatives, have
been In vain. There Is no such map
as Thomas Connelly In the militia
company at Salem.
NEEDS A LARGER PIPE.
A Four-Inch Main Will Replace a
Two-Inch Pipe.
This morning Water Superintendent
J. T. Brown placed a crew of men at
work digging the trench for the
change that Is to be made In the wa
ter main on the north side of the
river. On several of the streets upon
the hill the present two-Inch pipe is
to be replaced with a four-Inch main
Although the pipe has not yet ar
rived, the men were placed at work
upon the trench so as to have It In
readiness. Unless the pipe arrives
soon the work will have to be Btop
ped, or there will be too much ex
posed trench.

SPRAYING
BULLETIN
WASHINGTON FIGHTS
THE CODLIN MOTH.
Pullinnn Agrlcultiiril College Issue
tnltinhle Bulletin for On-liardlst
Shows How Spraying Snved 97 Per
Cent of North Ynklma Fruit Last
Year -Formulas Given.
The Washington state experiment
station has In the hands of the printer
a lengthy bulletin giving the results
of several years' work on the codlln
moth, in as much as this bulletin
cannot be mailed In time for the first
spraying, the following notes are given
in advance of Its publication as an
assistance to fruitgrowers.
The first spraying for the codlln
moth should be given after the blos
soms have fallen from the apple, but
oerore the calyx cups have closed. This
spraying Is the most Important of all.
Experimental tests show that nor
mally It means a loss of one-third of
the apples to omit this spraying.
The object of this application Is to
place poison below the crown of sta
mens, as It Is at this place that nearly
an or tne early worms enter. To do
this most effectively It Is necessary
to rain down a rather coarse spray
from above the blossoms, using as
much force as possible, and to spray
until the blossoms are drenched.
Reports from numerous localities
show that a large proportion of the
codlln moth are already In the moth
stage. Unless a period of cold weath
er sets In Immediately, the second
spraying should be given two weeks
aft?r the first. The second as well
as later sprayings should be applied
in as fine a mist as possible. It Is
Important to use as much pressure
behind the pump as can be maintain
ed, for the more pressure the finer
the mist and the better the penetra
tion. The third spraying should be
given In general from the middle to
the end of July; the fourth from two
to three weeks later.
- Practical tests have shown that the
best substance at hand for treating the
celling moth Is arsenate of lead. This
material can be purchased under a
number of brands, as: Swift's. Rex.
Eagle and Dlsparlne. All seem to be
good. Three experimental applica
tions of Swift's arsenate of lead at
North Yakima the past year yielded
97 per cent of worm-free fruit, while
four to 10 sprayings with Paris green
gave less In each case.
Arsenate of lead In paste form con
tains about one-third as much arse
nic-content as Paris green. Accord
Ingly one pound to 40 gallons of water
should compare In strength with one
pound of Paris green used with about
125 gallons of water.
One pound of Paris green to 125
gallons of water Is known to be the
most effective strength to use Paris
green In combating the codling moth.
It was the 1 to 40 formula of arsenate
of lead that gave the 97 per cent of
good fruit In the Yakima testa It
will be noticed that this is considera
bly more dilute than recommended by
the manufacturers.
Bulletin 77, on the codlln moth, can
be obtained as soon as It comes from
the press by addres;lng a request to
Director E. A. Bryan, Pullman, Wash.
