MORALES HAS ESCAPED
Believed to Be Making His Way Toward
Mexico

Sheriff Burr returned to the city yes
terday morning at $3.50 from his all
night search for Jose Morales, the Mexi-
can desperate who on Sunday evening
shot and seriously wounded Deputy
Sheriff George L. Wilson while the lat
ter was attempting to arrest him at his
brothers. ranch, one-half mile east
Of Monrovia. With him the sheriff
brought as a prisoner Carlos Morales,
the brother, who Is charged with assist
ing a prisoner to escape.
When Jose made his escape from the
house after shooting Wilson and break
ing from the grasp Of Constable Albert
Smith, who attempted to hold him, he
evidently made for a horse the first
thing, as his tracks could be followed
but a short distance. The trail left by the
animal was followed for some distance,
but the rain had obliterated the hoof
prints and they were lost. Morales is
supposed to be in the mountains, head
ing for Mexico, and, although a posse
OF local officers are out after him, the
chances of capture are believed to be
small
AS yet the doctors have been unable to
locate the bullet in Wilson's thigh al.
though they have probed the wound to
the depth Of ten inches. The wounded
man was resting as easily as could be
expected yesterday. but will probably be
brought into the city to one of the hos
pitals. where he can have the constant
attendance of trained nurses. The
physicians are Of the opinion that por-
tion of the clothing has been carried
into the wound and must be removed,

made to bring Everett back. that the
amount of his defalcation would be made
good and the matter would end there.
Notwithstanding this, it Is a fact that
Detective Goodman only yesterday re-
turned from San Diego, where he had
been looking for Everett. thinking that
possibly he might be in hiding in that
city seeking an opportunity to cross the
line into Mexico. Rumors are thick and
the destination of the fugitive is put in

gone, has got clear away, and will prob

HAS GOT CLEAR AWAY
Missing Police Clerk Everett Has Mad
Good His Escape

There no longer remains any doubt
that w. w. Everett. the missing police
court clerk has gone for good and is an
absconder. From present appearances
it would seem that he has been making
preparations for departure for the last
two months. Since September 30th last
he has failed to make any accounting
of moneys received to the city treas
urer. What the exact amount is that
he should have turned over is as yet
unknown. but will probably not fall short
of $500. The greater portion of this
money he had III bank and drew out
the day before he skipped.
Last week there was also paid into
his hands the sum $222 and costs in a
civil suit, which has gone with the rest.
Near the Same time $500 cash deposit
was made in the Furay poisoning case,
to secure the release of defendant, which

Everett's December salary warrant a
few days ago, which Will probably not
now be allowed by the council.
The worst feature in connection with
the case, however, is Everett's attempt
to besmirch the character of his wife,
whcm he has left absolutely psnniless.
For months past he has been consorting
with women of the town and others,
the truth finally reaching Mrs. Ever
ett's ears. About two months ago Ii
friend of Mrs. Everett overheard her
husband making a date with woman
and apprised the wife. She resolved TO
surprise Everett and securing the GER
vices of a young fellow named Skid
more, who had been employed by Ev-
erett in writing up his books, started out
that evening to be at the rendezvous and
confront the guilty pair.
Everett had been given tip however,
and of course was not to be found.
but when his wife came home late at
night in company with Skidmore after
an unsuccessful search he confronted
them with a drawn revolver and would
perhaps have shot the fellow had not
a friend interfered and wrested the re-
volver from his hand. Election was al
hand and the matter was hushed UP.
Skidmore was arrested at Evcrett's in
stance charged with the THEFT of a re-
volver from the court room where 1t had
been filed as an exhibit in a case. He
pleaded guilty, made written confess
sion and was allowed to leave town the
next day and has not since returned.
Matters went from bad to worse and
Everett began drinking heavily. He
is said to have kept UP his connection
with the other woman. though who she
Is has not yet been made public 1t was
at first thought that he had taken her
with him in his flight, but later develop
ments indicate otherwise.
