things. Mr. Foley says tho ability to

Convinced that Dr. R. M. Brum
field, alleged Roseburg slayer, is not
in hiding In the Crane Pralrio coun
try. Special Officer L. A. W. Nlxoa
and Deputy George Stokoe speeded
south yesterday morning headed for
Sclltr's Marsh, 70 miles south ot
Bend, where It Is reported that a car
answering to the description of Drum-
field's, had started. Word to this ef
fect was received horo this morning
by Sheriff S. E. Roberts, tho officers
telephoned from Crescent. They re
turned last night after a futllo
search.
The search for Brumfleld was con
tinued all Tuesday afternoon and
throughout the night, tho officera
acting on the theory that the fugi
tive, realizing that his presenea in
Central Oregon is known, woald bo
more likely to try to mako his es
cape in the dark.
Sheriff Roberts' chase Monday
from Bend to Crescent, was delayed
by two accidents, one to his own car.
and. another to a "bug" comman
deered on the road. It had bees
thought Tuesday that the supposed
Brumfleld had slipped through Cres
cent, but the theory that he U in Sel
ler's Marsh would mean that ths
man had left the main road between
La Pine and Crescent.
REDMOND, July 18 After De
puty Sheriff Adams of this city had
directed a man appearing to be an
auto tourUt-, as to the best way of
reaching Bend, he saw in a Portland
paper the picture of Dr. R. M. Brum
fleld, wanted for the murder ot Den
nis Russell, ot Roseburg. Then be
Identified the seeker for information
as the Roseburg dentist. Brumfleld
passed through hero yesterday after
noon travelling on The Dalles-California
highway from the north.
The autoist atterward IdenUfied
as Brumfleld, was driving either s
Chevrolet or a Maxwell car, the de
puty sheriff said. He was dressed
in khaki, and aside from tho fact
that he wore no glasses, he was ap
parently the exact original ot the pic
ture which has been scattered broad
cast over the state since the charred
body of the man believed to be Rus
sell was found last week. Another
man was riding in the car.
The "tourist" was anxious to know
if he had to pass through Redmond
to get to Bend. Adams said. He was
Informed that he was already in Red
mond, and was given further road
directions. Before leaving town, he
again sought the same information.
It was learned.
