WHEELER CAPTURED.
The Escaped Cattle RustIer Taken Into
Custody at La Grande.

Earl Wheeler, one of the cattle rustl-
ers who made his escape after the fight
with officers on Powder river Saturday
night, was captured in La Grande
Wednesday evening by Deputy Sheriff
McLachlin and Marshal Childers.
During the fight on Powder Saturday
night between the rustlers and officers.
Wheeler had latigo strap broken, as
he leaned on one side of his horse, and
the man and saddle were hurled to the
ground. but the culprit escaped under
cover of darkness. His saddle, which
had the horn shot away, was found, and
his pistol, which had been struck by
bullet and rendered useless, was also
picked up from the ground. The theory
was that Wheeler had been wounded
but his appearance does not Indicate
serious injury. There is a bullet hole
through his coat and another through
the front part of the vest, showing that
he had very narrow escape.
The first trace of Wheeler after the
fight was at the Toney ranch, five miles
north of Baker, on Sunday. He was
supposed to be headed IN this direction
and the supposition proved to be correct.
He was found in the railroad yards and
the only means the officials had of iden-
tifcation was a personal description.
He at first stoutly denied that he was
the individual they were after, saying
that he was on his way to Pendleton
looking for work. He told the deputy
sheriff that he had been working for
Jim Hutchinson and made other state
ments which the official knew to be un-
true. But when taken to jail Wheeler
made full breast of the whole affair.
It is reported that AL Prescott, one of
the parties under arrest, gave the pro-
jected steal away to the Baker county
officials and was thus largely the means
of the capture on Powder river. Pres
colt is now out on bail.-La Grande

THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN.
Bookbinder Carboni Wants Pay for Hi
Tools Taken to Springside.

The selectmen last night voted to
change the name of East Westville
street to Farnam street, and the name
of North street in the annex to Foxon
street. A petition for hydrant on
Chambers street near East Ferry
street, and a petition for a cross walk
on Forest street, near Fountain street,
were referred to the committee on
roads and bridges.
Attorney A. Maxcy Hitler appeared
before the board in the interest of Mr..
Carboni, the bookbinder, who some
time ago became mentally deranged,
threatened the life Of Rev. Mr.. Poteat
and was sent to Middletown asylum.
1t seems that at the time Mr.. Car
boni was sent to the asylum his tools
which he used in his binding business
were taken to Springsade to be cared
for. 1t is claimed now that these tools
have been lost and Mr.. Hitler appeared
to ask that the selectmen give to Mr..
Carboni a sum sufficient to buy new
tools with which to conduct his busi-
ness The selectmen did not look with
favor on the request, but no definite
action was taken in regard to the mat
ter last night.
