OUTLAW TRACY
KILLS HIMSELF

SPOKANE, Aug. 6.-Harry Tracy
the notorious outlaw, whose escapades
have startled the nation for the past
sixty days, lies dead in Davenport, the
county seat of Lincoln county. Sher-
ifs posses and others are disputing
the ownership of his body. Sheriff
Cudihee of Seattle, who came across
the State to take up the long and baf-
fled chase, positively identified the out
law at the inquest today.
The death was intensely tragic. For
two days Tracy had terrorized the oc-
cupants of the Eddy ranch, out in the
Lake Creek country, three miles from
the little siding of Fellows, on the Cen
trail Washington Railroad. Then five
determined citizens of Creston, hear
ing of his presence there, took their
rifles and revolvers and went after
him. They knew their business and
did it without fiinching. When Tracy
ran they hung upon his flank as the
deerhOund hangs to the hunted deer.
Sighting the men and securing his
rifle, Tracy sought cover behind a hay
stack, escaping several rifle bullets.
The posse then found cover behind a
large rock and for a while it looked
like a siege. Then Tracy broke for
larger boulder lying on the edge of
a small wheat field.
This dash was his undoing, for Just
as he came to the rock he fell forward,
rifle bullet having broken his leg. He
plunged into the wheat and his bloody
trial there shows the savage determin-
alton of the man. After receiving the
wound he crawled seventy-five yards
on his hands and knees in order to
reach spot that would command the
posse and enable him to pour a rifle
fire upon it. But once only was he
able to fire from this vantage point.
Weakened by loss of blood, he tried to
stanch his wound, failed, and with his
revolver sent a bullet through his
brain.
PORTLAND, Or, Aug, S.-The body
of Harry Tracy, enciOsel in pine EoX.
rests tonight on a JaSSaga truck at
the Union station here II is guarded
by three of the five men who fired the
shots that subsequently caused Tracy
to take his own life. The body will
leave for Salem tomorrow morning.
The guards carry with them the fam
Gus 5000 rifle with which the convict
did such deadly execution and which

Rosenberg Wants His r1oney

Suit was begun in the United States
District Court this morning by Gill and
Farley in behalf of M. Rosenberg and
Company, against the British consul,
w. r. Hoare, for 1872. IS, alleged to be
due for clothing supplied on the consurs s
order to members of the crew of the
lost bark Fannie Kerr. The sailors ar
rived here without clothing and the
consul looked after them, and stood
as security for the bills. When the bill
was presented he declared it exorbitant,
and Rosenberg decided to bring suit.
The complaint contains the following
allegations.
That said defendant is, and at all
times herein mentioned, was for the
Territory of Hawaii the duly appointed
Majesty, King Edward VII:
That heretofore, to wit: On or about
June 14th, A. d. 1902 the said defendant

Fannie Kerr, said goods were bargained
and sold and sold and delivered at the
special instance and request of said de-
fendant and the promise of said defend
ant to pay for the same, an itemized ac-
count of which is hereto annexed and
made part hereof and marked 'Ex-
hibit A. That said sum is Just is due
and is wholly unpaid and no part there
of has been paid and defendant refuses
to pay the same although often request
ed SO to do; and there Is interest due on
said account from the 10th day of June
A. d. 1902.
'"That this action is brought in the
United States District Court, in and for
the District of Hawaii, in accordance
with section 563 of the revised Statutes
of the United States, which gives juris-
diction to United States District Courts
in suits against Foreign Consuls in the
United States.
Wherefore, said Plaintiff prays this
Honorable court that judgment be
awarded to this plaintiff against said
defendant for the principal sum of three
hundred and seventy-two and S5-100
with interest from the 10Th day of
June A. d. 1902, together with all costs
and charges by said plaintiff in this
behalf incurred, and also attorneys fees
as provided in section S24 of the Re-
vised Statutes of the United States, and
that the process of this court do issue
to cite said defendant to appear and
answer this demand"

WILCOX IS CHECKED THE KING CROWNED
ENTHUSIASM AT LAHAINA SAID
TO BE VERY WEAK.
Senator White Thought To Be the
Cause-w. o. Smith Spoken of For
Delegate.

Passengers from Maui on the steam
er arriving this morning state that the
meeting of the native voters called by
Delegate Wilcox at Lahaina yesterday
evening resulted in a fizzle. The list
eners were only about thirty in num-
Der and did not seem particularly i'm
pressed.
AS Lahaina is considered to be the
Delegates own special bailiwick,
rumOrs are rife as to his apparent
downfall. 1t is stated as a fact that
Senator White, oily Bill" has had a
falling out with Wilcox and that his
adverse influence produced the failure
of the Delegates call to arms. White
is credited with the ability to swing
the district without any trouble.
The news of the disaster to Wilcoxs
expectations was received as the best
of information by Honolulu politicians
Prominent Republicans state openly
that the party can win out against
Wilcox even If there are not three
nominees in the field Many urge the
choice of the best possible man for
delegate, arguing that many of the ma
tives will not vote for Wilcox, but will
vote for any other candidate that is in
the field.
w. o. Smith is the name advanced
in this connection as the man to go to
Washington. He is not said to have
accepted or even considered the nom
inatiOn, but is quoted as having ex-
pressed his willingness to go to Wash
ington in a similar capacity two years
hence, If nominated.

RED UP.
A Government Vessel Sent to Antici-
pate Rosehill-Tsland Regarded as OF
Diplomatic Importance.

TOXIC, Japan, July 25 (via Victoria.
B. c., August 5)-The Japanese sloop
Kasagi sailed for Marcus Island July
23d, having on board Mr.. Ishii, scores
tary of the Foreign Office, the object
being to reach the island before Cap
tain Rosehill and his expedition. Cap
tain Rosehill left Honolulu July 11th
in a schooner so the Kasag1 will have
no difficulty in reaching her destina-
tion ahead. The rival claims of Am
erica and Japan to this speck in the
ocean have made a considerable stir in
Japan.
The ownership of Marcus Island.
called Mjnamitorl Shima here, was tan.
gibly established by the following an
nouncement, issued under Instructions
from the home Office under date Of
July 19, 1898:
No. So notification of Tokio-Fu.
An island situated at latitude 24.14
north and longitude 154 east shall be
called herewith Minamitori Shima and
it, included as one of the Bonin group,
shall be under the administration OF

The origin of the ownership claimed
by the Japanese Is rather difficult,
however, TO trace. 1t is said Mizutant
Shinrocku, claiming to be the discover
ed of the island, applied for the lease
of 1t. But there was another applicant.
and keen competition between them
arose. The term of the least is under

including three or four women. Mizu-
tani Shinrocku, who has two schooreTs
for his own use, has been doing a toll
erably fine business in catching birds
and fishing. His takes have been trans
ported by schooEers, about 100 tons
each, to the main island of the Boniu
group, where they are reshipped. One
of the schooners left for Marcus ISL
and on July 18th.
There Is evidence that Americans oc-
cupled the island before the Japanese.
but they are said to have abandoned
it. The island is not particularly rich,
the entire revenue from fishing, hunt
ing, etc, being placed at about $4,000
annually, but the question is looked
upon as being interesting diplomatic
ally.
Mr. Ishii will arrive at the island in
time to receive Captain Rosehill and
explain his Governments title to the
place.

lost its temper. l think the court had
a good deal of reason to lose it's tenn
per. 1t is to be regretted that the court
didn't show more judicial mind, but
the defendants will not be allowed to
suffer on account of that"
An order was duly made setting
aside the orders of the day before, and
the court announced that the hours of
sessions hereafter would be from $3.50
to midnight, with an hour for lunch,
and an hour and a half for dinner.
Attorneys will have to be ready with
their cases." said the Judge. There
will be no agreements to wait allowed,
and no stipulatiOns to that effect will
count unless made with the approval
of the court. II the Attorney General
Is thus made powerless to do favors to
attorneys who want postponements,
they will not ask him to do so any
more"
Judge Gears announcement made a
srnsation among attorneys who heard
1t. Some of them are very glad at the
prospect of longer hours and night
,work, while others object to anything
more than the two hours in the morn
ing and two hours in the afternoon,
which have been the rule heretofore.
Under the new rule it will probably be
possible to try some of the civil cases,
as the criminal calendar will be quick

very anxious to have their jury-waived
cases heard, and there will be efforts
to get some of them out of the way.

gambling and being present where
gambling game was carried on. They
were caught in a lottery raid by Dep
uty Sheriff Chillingworth, and appeal

tended by delegates of the second rep

GERS were duly elected H. l.. Hol-

chairman, who presided over the meet
ing, owing to the i'll health of H. l..

Wright was elected secretary, and w.
H. Greenwell as treasurer. There were
about one hundred people present, be-
sides the delegates, which shows that

ground. The district committees were
chosen by the presiding chairman. E.
A. Frazer for North Kohala; Hon.
Samuel Parker for South Kohala; j.
X. Nahale for Central Kona; w. j.

. Judge Gear this morning made a re-
markable address from the bench, va
waiting all orders of the court yestec-

far as he was concerned, and estab-
fishing hereafter as the hours of ses-

are to be ready with their cases as
they come up.
The court made it's announcement in
ruling on motion to vacate an order
forfeiting the bail of Lee Kee and six
teen others, charged with gambling.
Their attorney Frank Thompson, pre-
sented an affidavit to the effect that
they had been in court yesterday and
he had told them that there was an
other case ahead of them, so that they
had left
"All the orders made by the court
yesterday will be set aside" said Judge
Gear, interrupting. Il have heard that
the court was not feeling well yester-
day and perhaps it was so. Defendants
whose bail was ordered forfeited will
be allowed to stand on their bail as 1t
was, and If the attorney general wants
to withdraw any nolle presses he will
be allowed to do so. There was one
case in which an appeal was with
drawn, and the defendant will be al
lowed to take it up again If he desires
to do so. AS far as this court is con-
cerned yesterday may be considered
