Colorado, arrived in this city at O'Clock
last night after l.. A. Bartlett, who was ar
rested last Sunday upon advices received
from Fort Morgan, Colo. that he was
wanted there for embezz ement of $1,000.
An hour after his arrival Sheriff Ding
man visited the city Jail where Bartlett Is
confined and identified him beyond all
doubt as the man wanted. In converse
ton with PosT-INTELLIeENcER reporter
at the Russ hotel last evening, the sheriff
said that he recognized Bartlett personally
and that he would proceed to Olympia
tomorrow TO get requisition papers
from Governor Ferry, and would start for
Fort Morgan with his prisoner Tuesday.
Sheriff Dingman said he had expected to
arrive in Seattle twelve hours sooner than
he did, as his Union Pacific contract stipu-
lated that he was to reach here in sixty
four hours. Owing to slight delay on the
road he was unable TO reach here sooner
than last evening. He expressed himself
as much surprised at the prosperity OF
Seattle. and this is his firsl visit.
Sheriff Dingman has the necessary pa
pers from Governor Cooper, of the state of
Colorado. for the removal of Bartlett to
that state upon sufficient identification and
the permission of Governor Ferry. The
sheriff expects to start Tuesday with his
man.
