Sheriff Cudihee of Seattle Has Him and Several Accomplices Surrounded The Oregon Desperado is Bad ly Wounded in the Hip, But Prepared to Fight to the Bitter End. Seattle, July 17. - Sheriff Cudihee and six deputies discovered Tracy in a shack at Sawyer Lake, where the bloodhounds lost the trail last Friday. Two accomplices are with Tracy, who is badly wounded in the hip. Cudihee has a stool pigeon who has access to the house, and the shack surrounded. It looks now as if a killing will soon take place. It is believed that one of the men with Tracy is Wright, the Oregon ex-convict and inmate of the Oregon Reform School- Tracy and his companions are heavily armed and prepared to defend their lives to the bitter end Unless taken before night his escape may again be possible.
