SEATTLE, Wah., July It Sheriff Cud lhe returned to Seattle last night for the purpose of looking1 up records of "Tattoo-Bed" and ex-Convict Simmons, who are with Tracy. The Sheriff' was disappointed but not discouraged over the escape of Tracy from the cabin Which he surrounded yes terday. The Sheriff returned ibis after noon to the cabin in Sawyer Lake, where he has established headquarters and from where picked guards are working. Sher iff 'Cudihee says his information is very positive that Tracy's wound Is serious. The main part of a charge of buckshot took effect between the hip Joint and thigh, making a lacerated wound. The stool pigeon was told that when the shot was cut out with a razor, a large amount of puss followed Cudihee argues that each step under such circumstances is exceedingly pain ful to the fugitive and that he could not travel far. Tracy told the stool pigeon that he was not discouraged and his es cape was only a matter of courage and fortitude, hence he would get away. Cudihee therefore believes Tracy is in hiding, within an area of not more thas' two miles distant from the cabin. Me says he will capture the outlaw or kill him before he gets beyond .the confines of King County. He places no credance in the story of his escaping towards Gold Hill, and says that with his wound it would be Impossible. Following his tatica of the last few days, Cudihee's every move will be kept secret The Posse's Report. (Scrlpps-McRae News Association.)

COVINGTON, Wash.. July U.-It is be lieved her that Sheriff Cudihee is the lctim of his own "stool pigeon" In his efforts to locate Tracy yesterday. - The man who was t pilot the 8herlff to the cabin on Sawyer Lake where Tracy and two ex-convicts were resting, probably warned Tracy of the close pursuit of the posse and he declined to go with Cudihee and his men to the cabin, saying he would be killed by'Tracy for playing false to him. Cudihee and his men made their wly to the oabln without" the guide only to find that the two men said to be with him had escaped several hours before. The smoldering fire by which the fugi tive cooked his meals and a linen band age with which Tracy had dressed his wound were mute evidence of the cabin's recent occupancy by the criminal. The sheriff VM very angry that Ms "game" had again eluded htm and he is said to Have made soma unpleasant remarks about his "stool plgon." Had Tracy remained in the cabin there would have been a serious battle. But his usual good luck was with him and he broke away again. Cudihee held his men in readiness for Tracy's reappearance at some farmhouse Iwrf'wlll then start out once more in an endeavor to capture or kill the fugitive. t ;,, vt ' ,,, Reward Should be Paid.

A 4 As an argument In favor of Hawthorn Park as a site for the 1905 Fair, 4 4- the East Side ottlsens say that a ferry like the one formerly run from the 4 4- foot of Stark street can be put on the river at the foot of Salmon street and 4 4- 10,500 persona a day could be transported across the river, thus relieving the 4 4 congestion on the bridges. Or a ferry, 60x150 feet in siae, having a double 4 4 deck, could bo constructed and 36,000 persons an hour or 800,000 a day could 4 be transported. The landing on the east sia Of "the river would be within 4 4- seyen short blocks of the Fair ground gates. A ferry boat 60x150 feet in else 4 4- would giro 12,000 square feet of free room for passengers. Allowing two feet 4 4 to the passenger, accommodations for 6,000 persons can be secured. 4 Tho fWTf boat proposition Is made In view of the fact that the bridges 4 4- might prove too narrow to handle all the people who might desire to go to 4 4 and from the Fair, and for the purpose of meeting the conditions which might - 4 4 arise by a great number of people. 4"f44 4. 4 4' , MURDER Joe Sebeski Charged With Delith of Thos. Thomas Dooley, a farmer at Scappoose, died at St. Helens last night, the result of injuries received by the brutal assault of a young man named Joe Sejeskl a few days ago at the former's place. Dooley'a farm is on the highland, and his fields are now teeming full of wheat, oats, po tatoes and similar products. Sejeskl has been the herder of a band of oattle which had been taken to the highland for pasture during the flood In the Co- lumbla. The .cattle roamed about the country, and frequently found their way to the fields of Mr. Dooley. This condi tion of affairs was several times remon strated against, and particularly was there objection raised on the occasion of such a vis.; by the bovines a few days ago, when their herder attempted to drive them across the fields and through an' opening at hepther side of the field. Sejeskl insisted on continuing the drive, and indeed, he did so, only, how ever, after demolishing the old man to a considerable extent by the use of a club. Dooley's head was beaten very se verely, and other bad wounds were re ceived on his body. When he had recovered sufficiently to be able to lay his case before the author ities. Mr. Dooley entered complaint, and the matter has occupied the attention of the District Attorney and Justice of the Peace at St. Helens for three ' days. Sejeskl has been held without bond to answer the charge of murder. Dooley's age was 62. He died at the hotel In St Helens during the course of the hearing before the Justice. CORONER'S IQUEST. (Journal Special Service.) ST. HELENS, July 18. Joe Sebeski will have a preliminary hearing here thU evening in the Justice Court on a charga of murder. Two weeks ago Sebeski and Thomas Dooley. aged 2, had an encoun ter with clubs, the latter receiving seri ous injuries. Yesterday Sebeski was ac qultteA of assault in the Justice Court and Dooley died two hours afterward with pneumonia complications. The Cor oner is holding en inquest on Dooley's body this afternoon.

IS NEEDED And the Merchants' Licenses Must Be Paid. The poverty of the City Council, accord ing to City Auditor Devlin, has been some what eased by the payment of saloon licenses. Practically every saloon license in the city has been paid and while the city fathers are still In no affluent condi tion, they are at least able once more to sleep o'nlghts. The next victims of their, cupidity, it Is now announced, will be the entire class of business men. Of this source of re venue Mr. Devlin says: "There has been great negligence on the part of many merchants in the payment of their licenses and now that the city needs the money so badly, a vigorous campaign for their collection will be begun. Another thing of which I may speak la this: It is the habit ot many people doing busi ness here to understate the amount of their business. This applies not so much to the large stores as to those smaller places which are scattered all over the city. The proprietors of these establish ments In many instances of which we are Informed, make declarations of the amount of their annual turnover which are far below tlxeir actual volume of busi ness, thus placing themselves In the wrong class for taxation. I may point out right now that any person who does this Is in the same position as though he had no license whatever, and is- liable to prosecution for conducting an unli censed business. "The council needs money very badly. Indeed, and this is one of. the means which will be employed to meet the In creasing expenditures of the city." NEW REVENUE DISTRICT. Colonel Gavett who has been In the city a day ortwo ' arranging details for the separation of Washington and Alaska from Oregon as an internal revenue dis trict has completed his labors and will leave tomorrow morning for his home in Detroit. Colonel Gavett has gathered necessary Information In regard to popu lation, commerce, etc., of Seattle and Ta coma, and forwarded the same to Wash ington, and from this report the depart ment will choose upon the location for the new custom house. When the order comes for the separation of the district there will be no time consumed in carry ing put the orders, as everything Is all arranged, even the new officer to take Charge, D. B. Crocker, of Walla Walla. The report of Colonel Gavett will arrive In Washington next Tuesday, and It Is now almost an assured thing that the new ofllce wil be opened the first of August. ' .
