HOT HUNT FOR TRACY.
Bloodhounds Now on Oregon Conyict's
 Trail,

Trail.
 SEATTLE, Wash, July 9.-Harry Tracy, the fugitive Oregon convict who has killed six men and wounded several others since June 9, is being hotly pursued by men and dogs in the country southeast of Seattle and will probably be slain or captured within few hours. His pursuers, who have with them two fine bloodhounds, are only a short distance behind him.
 Tracy made another extraordinary escape from one of the posses after him yesterday afternoon. Word was received at the sheriff's office that Tracy had been at the ranch of John Gerald, near Benton, for five hours. Fifty armed men at once hastened to the scene. When they reached the place, they scattered and took posi- tions so they could watch the house to the best advantage. The peculiar actions of Mrs. Gerald convinced them that Tracy was still in the house.
 On the arrival of Sheriff Cudihee the posse closed in on the house, only to learn from Mrs. Gerald that Tracy had given them the slip. He had left the house by rear door ten minutes pre- sviously while the posse were taking up positions to watch the place, hid for few minutes in some of the bushes and then quietly slipped away through the woods toward Palmer.
 The wonderful coolness and daring of the convict were never more fully exemplified than in this instance. In the back yard of the Gerald home An derson, the man whom Tracy had kept prisoner from the times he left Port Madison, was found tied to tree. Tracy had tied Anderson while the posse was in full view of the house.
 The bloodhounds were let loose on, his trail and are reported to be only few minutes behind him. Fully thou sand armed men are now engaged in the pursuit, including a posse which has taken the train for Palmer to in- tercept Tracy in his flight toward Ce- dar mountain.

MuTINY FOLLOWS MURDER.
A Sensational story of Crime on the
 High Sens.

\
 PENSACOLA, Fla., July 9.-A sen sational story of mutiny and murder on the high seas is told by Captain McDonald of the American schooner Mary Sanford, which has arrived here after an eventful voyage from Blue fields, Nicaragua. During the voyage one man was killed, and the crew were in almost constant mutiny, clam orous for the blood of the man who murdered their shipmate The mur- derer, First Mate Nicholson, was placed in jail soon after the arrival of the Sanford in this port.
 The Mary Sanford left Bluefelds June 24, and when four days out A. G. Nicholson, the first mate, killed Fred Reed, a negro, because he did not per form some duty to suit the ideas of the mate.
 One of the ships officers said that immediately after the killing four West Indian seamen, countrymen of the dead man, openly resented the murder of Reed and threatened to hang Nicholson from the yardarm The captain, two mates and steward were the only white men on the vessel, and the combined watchfulness of this quartet prevented marine session of Judge Lynchs court.

PLAN TO AID MINERS.
A National Defense Fund to Be
 Raised.

A National Defense Fund to Be
 Raised
 WILKESBAIl1.-- ra., July 9.-A national defense fund to which all organized labor and the public in gen eral will be asked to contribute is the lategt proposition placed on foot to help the striking anthracite coal min CTS if they need assistance in their struggle for higher wages and q short CT work day. Harry White of New York, secretary of the National Gar ment Workers and member of the con- ciliation committee of the National Civic federation, held q long confer ence with President Mitchell yester- day, during which the plan was ap- proved by the miners chief, and Mir. White will at once begin preparations to carry out the plan. President Mitch ell wants it understood, however, that the miners union will accept no aid until their own resources are exhaust ed. MT. White came here authorized by several labor organizations to place the proposition before President Mitch ell.
 After the conference President Mitchell had nothing to say about the matter beyond the brief statement that he approved of the plan. MT. White gave out the following state ment:
 President Mitchell will accept the cooperation and whatever aid may be rendered by the labor organizations of the country and others, but with the l <ls xl E.. 1Z used when their own funds become exhausted, which will not be for some time. MT. Mitchell says that before soliciting outside support the miners at work must set the example them selves by contributing considerable portion of their earnings to sustain their fellow members ill the hard coal fields who are fighting their common battle. This will be determined upon at the Indianapolis convention. MT. Mitchell also welcomed the aid ten dered by men of means and influence outside the ranks of organized labor.
 Efforts will also be made to orig mate a movement throughout the country so that the unions and others may be prepared to collect funds when the time is propitious.
 Public men will also undertake an Independent movement and solicit sub- scriptions from those not connected with labor organizations. This move ment will be inaugurated in New York city, and the labor organizations and sympathizers in all the principal cities of the country will be called on to ap- point committees to carry on similar work
 President Mitchell had nothing to say regarding his trip to New York beyond repeating what he had said in that city. He had no information from the West Virginia strike. Neither had he anything to give out concerning the situation i'll this region
 The Lehigh Valley Coal company has succeeded in starting up its Hen ry washery at Plains. The coal thus taken from the eulm banks is not sent to market, but is used in the compa- ny's boilers.

THE NATURALIST CLUB
Many Mounted Specimens of Plants
 Presented Last Night

ASSShSCd 4Nl&uL.
 There was an unusual amount of activity at the meeting of the above club last night. The collection of the flora of Waterbury has begun in earnest. The officers and committee elected to identify the specimens found the time too limited to transact the whole of the business before the meeting. There were upwards of one hundred specimens of plants mounted and named by Mrs Lyman before the meeting. A majority of these were approved and stamped. B. B. Bristol showed a remarkably fine specimen of limenitis ursula. bred from chrysalis taken at Mrs W. w. Whites home on June 20. H. $. Wool ley exhibited specimen of the elater beetle, alasus oculatus, which had been sent in by MT Hunter.

SMALLPOX IN sUFFIELn.

Suffield July Civilian Johnson, colored, aged IS, was found to-day suf- fering from smallpox, and was sent to the pest house. The other sixteen members of the family have been quar. antined. As the boy has been going about town several days with erup- tions on his face, some fear of a con- siderable spread of the disease is ex- pressed.
