uties, with what success the next few
hours will reveal. Independent of Do
lan's report, there Is abundant evidence
thatTracy was In the vicinity of Au

men residing near -where ; polan lives
reported tonight that they saw x the
phantomlike outlaw. Tie-passed them
on the county road gQlng In the direc

. ' - Tracy Is Excited. -
" SEATTLE. Wash., July 10. A spec
ial fronv Kent, Wash., says: -
Harry Tracy. the notorious1 Oregon
convict, was at the home of E. M.
Johnson, two miles southeast of this
place, Wednesday night. When he lift
the house he was armed -with a new re
volver and his 30-SO Winchester, and
had a plentiful supply of ammunition
and. pro visions. Tracy sent Johnson to
Tacoma. to - purchase L; revolver and
ammunition. He threatened to exterm
inate Johnson's family oh the least
sign of treachery. The murderer
seemed fagged out and talked very lit
tle about himself or his plana. Whlle at
the house he spent nearly alt .the time
patching for his pursuers. Heeft the
house after dark- headed either for Se
attle or the Palmer 1 cut-off.
Not only did 'Tracy force Johnsonto
buy him a revolver, but made him botv
. . . . . a N
row me . necessary : money iu -.rm.
Johnson went to Tacoma and secured
the weapon without sounding any note
of warning to the authorities. H was
badly frightened.
,Tracy seems"; to have a predellctlon
for people named Johnson. He made
Louis R. Johnson, of BothelL drive him
from that place to Woodland Park, af
ter killing Deputy Sheriff Raymond at
Wayne. At Port Madison EV entered
the home of John v Johnson, and de
camped with Anderson, the hired man;
and after leaving t GerrelL's home a
Kenton he fled to. the house of the
Kent Johnson. - . - :-. 1 .-..iv"-
That the murderer U becoming anx
ious for his "safetv. waa shown by f
conduct at the house of JS. M. Johnson
yesterday. He seemed to realize that
his exploit at Renton had reached .the
UmlL ;Hls gaiety had been replaced by
the nervous excitement of a man near
the end of his rope. "
; Johnson has read the newspaper ac
counts of the desperado's acts about
Seattle.: He describes him jerf ectly,
and. Sheriff Cudlhee says the clothing
he Is now wearing is the same he had
on at Gersfll's home at Renton. Sher
iff1 Cudlhee waa in conversation, with
Johnson for some time. He procured a
good description of the outlaw.
Johnson speaks. "English poorly, ' and
it was with great difficulty that Sheriff
Cudlhee obtained the facts. He believes
Johnson- is telling a true story and Is
thoroughly convinced 4t was Tracy at
the place, and not a confederate to
throw the officers off the track, - r
The town of Kent is alive with rum
ors of all kinds regarding Tracy's des
tination."" Armed men are appearing on
the 'rtreeta ; and great t excitement
reigns. Sheriff Cudibee haa left for
Auburn and will attempt to head Tracy
oft, Tf he has not returned to Seattle.
CudShee believes his destination Is the
Palmer cut-off. -

tive charge of the extradition proceed
ings for the United State, transmit
ting to the Attorney Qeheral, under
date of MontreaL July 7th. a special
report on the case In which he calls at
tention to the fact that the legal rep
resentatives of Messrs. v Greene and
Gaynor are closely connected through
professional and family ties with the
Canadian official to whom this Gov
ernment must look for extradition of
the men whose custody it seeks. After
enumerating proceedings, which he de
clares .to have.' been, irregular UnI il
legal, Mr. Erwln concludes:
'It Will thus be seen that before we
can finally , take the prisoners out of
Canada we will have to submit the reg
ularity proceedings in ' some very im
portant features to a high otTlela.1 of t;
Dominion Government, whose firm was
retained In advance of the extradition
proceedings to resist extradition, and
whose political Influence has been felt
at every turn the case has taken. '
