LOOKING FOR GRIFFITH.
Psi5c~ Would Like to Find Man
Who. II II Claimed. Passed
Some Worthless Checks

The police are searching for man nam
ca drfiflth. VINO Is accused OF doing up oer-
tain OF Sesttie's merchants by bogus
checks Detective Barbee was at work on
the case late yesterday afternoon and at
last accounts II was supposed that Griffith
had skipped the city and gone TO Van
couger. II. &. IL Is said that the matter
was reported to the prosecuting attorney
last evening with view 10 having Grif-
nth brought back and prosecuted. The
matter OF expense was considered and IL
appeared as If the sum that would neces-
sariiy be expended would prevent any at
tempt at ex;radition.
Ii IL claimed that Griffith came 90 Seat
tie recently and represented that he was
preparing 70 80 10 the KloHdIke. lie Was
10 take along ten men with HIN. Accord
Ing to the story. he obtained possession OF
the watch OF one Of the men. and still has
it lie was TO meet his men yesterday
morning and make arrangements fer the
trip. He did not show up, however. and
this aroused the suspicsons of the man
who had given up possession OF his watch.
When the afternoon had nearly gone and
still no trace OF Griffith could he found. the
affair was reported To the prosecuting at
toFney.
r. n. Letthead, tho druggist said last
night that Griffith did not get $40 worth OF
goods from HIN on the strength Of a worth
less check, although Il was true that he had
the goods set aside and offered a check In
payment. Mr. Leiihead said that ne dld
not accept the check. As he remembered.
IL Was drawn on the Puget Sound National
bank.
Chief OF Police Reed said last night that
II was true Detective nsrhee had been de-
tailed on case IN which a man named
Griffith was mixed up. lie understood that
Griffith had been passing worthless checks.
