The weather during the past week was dry and very favorable for the growing crops. The maximum, or day temerpa turea of Western Oregon ranged between I degrees and 76 degrees, and the mini mum, or night temperatures between U and 62 degrees. . In Eastern Oregon the maximum temperatures ranged between SO degrees and sfr"degrtes and the mini mum temperatures ; between 38 degrees and 63 degrees. .The- days were moder ately mlld,,but ths: nights were rather too cool for the rapid advancement of corn and gardens. Wheat, oats and barley are heading un der very favorable., weather Conditions and there is hardly any doubt but tht wheat oroB tWs year wlff be as good as last year's crop,, notwithstanding the damaging frees in January. Haying Is now wall started in the west' ern portion of the state, and a- good first cutting of alfalfa is being .housed In ex rellent condition. ' For some unexplained reason, the crop of timothy is not as heavy as usual, but clover hay wilt amount to more than an average crop Range gratis continues good and stock is generally fat. Sheep-shearing is praq Ucally done and the late reports indicate that the clip will be above the average in quantity; and about . the average in duality. ... ' ''.''.''- Hops are ddlng splendidly and no com plaints axe jn&le ot Hoe. It has been too cool for corn,, but the plant is thrifty and its cultivation Is general. Pei&oes and gardens are backward, bat otherwise promising. Fruit continues dropping in many sections, and cherries' will probably not amount to more than half a crop, Strawberries are plentiful and the Indi cations point to food crops of blackber ries and raspberries.' - ' THE COMPLETE Multnoraah's Figures All Added By Officers, County Clerk Lot Q.

Superintendent Lee was absent from the penitentiary much of the ' time ' making stump speeches and his salaried guards had all the town leave they, wanted, which ' often left the penitentiary shoh- handed. OFFICIALS WARNED. All this was done In theJace of two, warning the penitentiary officials lia that Merrill and Tracy were planning an escape. The history of the two des peradoes was already known, but warning to watch them very closely was recently given by the local police department and a member of a prominent legal firm, which handles much criminal business. The warnings were apparently unheeded. at the cost of three valuable lives and the freedom of., two prisoners who will hesitate ct no crime. CONVICT'S GUNS Perhaps Were Bought Here in Portland. MURDERER' GUNs! Ever sines the news went forth regard ing the daring break for. liberty, a Jour nal reporter has made very -careful In quiry locally tai see . if it -would not be possible to get some clew as. to who fur nished the arms and ammunition to tho convicts;,--It has-been a very difficult task, but Is reasonably certain that the "Northwesterti Otin Company 'sold the arms. In an interview yesterday CAITA1.N RILEY. SAID; , "I remember distinctly selling two such guns as the outlaws are described as car rying. The ammunition was ' the same, too. "During the week previous to the break two men came into the store and selected two 80-30 carbines and I think 160 rounds, of cartridges. The latter were of 1 the. smokeless, soft-tipped variety. ' I did not pay any particular attention to the trans action at the time, as I was very busy In the bicycle department. I have tt' faint recollection of one of the men and he ap pears to have been rather short and I believe wore a Short, stubby, black beard."- ', WOULDN'T KNOW 'THEM. "Would you recognise this men now,' If confronted with them?", was asked. "No, I should ' say not." was the prompt reply. . "As 1 say, I was very busy and such transactions are so com-' mon that I paid little attention to It." It is a strange coincidence that two such carbines, which', are', not In general Use, should be purchased just previous to ths time) two desperate criminals shoot their way out of prisons using Just suoh arma .' t . -1 - There are more man in the penitentiary JU8T A8 DESPERATE As Traoy and Merrill.. ALMOST HOPELESS Capture at Present Appears to Be Improbable. (By The Journal Staff Correspondent.) LA CENTER. June 18,-There Is but little chance that the convicts will be captured unless by accident The dense ness of the bush, the lonely nature of many of the roads where houses ars few and far between and the desperate daring of the .men themselves, render It Very unlikely that they will be taken. No one who has never, experienced the diffi culties of a chase such as this can thor oughly understand the almost lnsuptr. able difficulties whiclt stand in. ins way, of success. Nevertltelen there, seems to be a lack ot system jn the operations now conducted whiipli alone 'would be likely to prove fatal p the success of the hunt. There is no ifluestlon . as, to tns personal courage of the men who are on the convicts' trail, but at times It seems as though the efforts were misdirected Still it Is always easier to criticise than to- perform, and if ths advice of the ru ral genulses who have at all times been willing to say Just what should be done, had been taken It Is, to say the least. doubtful if much progress would have been made. At every cross roads some local soloh is waiting to give his counsel without money and without price, ' and many there are -who have received se vere J6lts' In the region qf their self esteem from those members of the posse who have bad their , tempers ruffled by continued disappointments.

Her repairs are all com pleted' with the exception of the rigging. and this is progressing very rapidly. TKe big Carrier will probably be loading an outward cargo In a short time.

Judah Is in receipt of a letter from 4 a woman in Chicago, giving the name of Minnie Tracy, and claiming to be 4 the. wife of Harry Tracy, who esoaped from the penitentiary here ten days ago, after murderlng'three of the guards. The woman asserts that she -f f married Tracy in 1898; that he had served a term In the Arkansas peniten- 4- tlary the same year; and that any ottier woman claiming to be Tracy's 4- wife Is an Impostor. Tracy's age, given ' by the penitentiary authorities, is 27 years, he having been 24 years old when received at the prison. If th's (woman's-jstccr; is true -f t- she married him when he was a mere boy, 18 years old.
