Louis. There were six or seven invl-
tations from MS many different coun'

PRESS INTERESTED IN WORLDS FAIR.
His Growing Achievement Was the
Securing of the Holding of the
International Press Congress In
ST. Louis In 1003-A Thousand
Newspaper Offices Visited.

St. Louis, Aug. 7.-Mr. Walter Will
Jams, of Columbia, Mo, who repre-
scented the Louisiana Purchase expo
sition, during his recent tour through
Europe and portions of Asia and At
RIGA, returned to st. Louis, Tuesday,
accompanied by James IL. Moss, of
Columbia, Mo-, who was his fellow
traveller most of the time. The gen
tlemen paid visit to the Admins
tration building, where they were we
coined by President Francis, Secre-
tary Stevens and nearly all the mem
bers of the executive committee.
When asked for statement regard
ing his trip, and particularly the con-
gress of the international Press as
ISOLATION, recently held at Berne,
Switzerland, Mr., Williams dictated
the following;

representatives of the leading metro

and they will grandE respond. DR..
Charles Russell, editor of the Glas-
gov Herald, one of the great Scotch
newspapers, cordially indorses Sir
Hughs statement, with the assur-
ance that the Herald would assist as
much as possible an exposition which
was so attentive TO the press.
81 have visited nearly 1000 news
paper offices, issuing journals in
many languages, and have met with
most cordial courtesy and the most
gratifying interest in exposition af-
fairs, with but single exception, and
that was doubtless due to a misun-
derstanding of the language in
Turkish town. The old world news
paper people have great admiration
for American Journalistic methods,
and have been pleased to give eX-
pressions in their columns, favorably
commenting on the Worlds fair
work. This is true not only in the
larger capitals, but in the smaller
cities and manufacturing centers. In
fact, so far as | can recall, not a
single newspaper of the 1000 which
| visited has failed to make comment
Of some extent on the exposition.
"The ST. Louis Worlds fair is APP
parently growing in favor in Europe,
through the excellent work of the
regular representatives there, and in
qurics have been evoked in most un-
expected force. Even in lands so far
away as eastern Palestine and Upper
Egypt, | found prospective exhibitors
or visitors. In little shop in
Bethlehem, for example, into which |
casually went, | was accosted by the
proprietor for information regarding
the exposition, 1t appeared that he
wished to make an exhibit of some
kind"

OUTLAW TRACY IS DEAD.
He Ends His Meteoric Career With
His Own Hand While Sur
rounded by Posse.
NEARLY TWO MONTHS REIGN OF TERROR.
Eight Men Dead and others wound
ed Attest the Desperate Char"c-
ter of the Man Who Escaped
From the Oregon Penitentiary on
June %.

Spokane, Wash, Aug. Harry
Tracy, the notorious outlaw, who,
with David Merrill, escaped from the
Oregon penitentiary at Salem, on
June 9, after killing three prison
guards, killed himself early Wednes-
day morning after being wounded by
the rife of one of posse in pursuit.
Tracy was surrounded in a wheat
field near Fellows, station on the
Washington Central railroad, about
SO miles west Of Spokane, Tuesday
night. Word was sent back to Daven-
port, the county seat, and large
number of armed men hurried to the
scene.
In fight with the sheriffs posse,
Tuesday night, Tracy was wounded
in the right leg -etween the knee ana
the thigh, and 20 minutes later, know
ing that his capture was certain, he
killed himself with a revolver. The
body of the outlaw was found in
wheat field Wednesday morning.
The posse under Sheriff Gardner
opened fire on the outlaw, and one
bullet pierced his right leg between
the knee and thigh. About 20 min
utes after being wounded, he shot
himself with one of his revolvers and
his body was found after daybreak.
The revolver with which he killed
himself was grasped tightly in his
right hand.
Harry Tracy escaped from the Ore
gon state penitentiary, at Salem, on
June 8, in company with David Mer-
rll, after killing four men, Frank W..
Terrell, G.. II. 4. Jones and b. f. Tiff
fanny, guards, and Frank lngraham,
convict, who tried to prevent his
fight. On June 2s Tracy hlled Mer-
rill near Napavine, Wash, shooting
him from behind, and leaving his
body in the forest, where it was
found on July 10. On July 3, near
Seattle in a fight with posse, Tracy
shot and killed Charles Raymond, a
deputy sheriff, +. Il, Breese, po-
liceman, and MORALLY wounded Neil
Rawley, who died on the following
day, and wounded Carl ANDERSON and
Louie Hafrit, newspaper reporters.
Tracy committed many feats Of
daring during his fight, in the course
of which he eluded various posses
when apparently surrounded, and
- q N,fhnp, 40
forced to furnish foo. and clothing
and, by threats OF numbering their
mamlies, compelled them to cover up
his tracks, Perhaps his greatest
show of daring was displayed on July
2 at South Bay near Olympia, when
he held up six men and forced four,
including Capt, Clark, of large gas
olne launch, TO embark with him on
Puget sound and pilot him upstream
for ten hours.
In 1897 Tracy murdered Valentine
lloge, Colorado c0ttleman, and
William Strong, boy, in the same
state. A total reward Of $1,000 was
offered for his arrest, Gov Mcbride
of Washington offering $500 for his
capture, dead or alive. The state OF
Oregon offered $4,000, and brother
of one of the guards killed at the
penitentinry offered 500, The reward
for Mcrrll's capture amounted TO ST.
800, which has been claimed by Mrs,
Waggoner the berry picker, and her
son, who found the body near their
home.
