With Precautions Taken 1t il Not
Thought Possible He Can Avoid
Ultimate Capture or
Death.

SEATTLE, July 4.-Convict Harry Tracy
has just passed a red-letter day In his err
ratio career. He killed Policeman F. E.
Breese and fatally wounded Neil Rawley,
who subsequently, died. In the city limits,
after having murdered Deputy Sheriff
Charles Raymond Of Snohomish county and
probably fatally wounded Deputy Sheriff
John Williams of King county early yester-
day. In his hopeless flight for safety, with
no consideration for human life, Tracy has
covered probably sixty miles. He WAS first
encountered by a Seattle posse near Bothell
at $3.50 o'clock in the afternoon. Evidently
the convict caught sight Of his pursuers
before they saw lin. He had taken a COM
handing position in a clump OF huge frs
and opened fire before he was discovered.
He fired hve shots in all. Raymond was
instantly killed by one OF the rife balls.
Another struck the raised rife held by
Williams, splitting 1t in four parts and
entered the deputy's breast. He will live,
It is believed at this time.
Governor Mcbride OF this state, who is in
the city with Adjutant General Drain Of
the state militia. is taking the keenest in
terest in the case. He has offered a re-
ward Of $500. This, with other rewards
offered by the relatives Of the victims Of

a total Of 5 $500. The governor, besides Of
fering the reward, has ordered Adjutant
General Drain TO send two troops Of the
state militia to aid the posses, the mem
bers OF which are securing all the northern
suburban territory Of Seattle.
Sheriff Cudihee returned TO the city at
$3.50 o'clock this morning, leaving on watch
a large number Of deputies. who were re-
lieved in the morning by the state militia
men.
Manages 90 Escape.
Shortly after s o'clock in the evening
Thursday, Tracy was located IN the home
Of Mrs. r. II. Van Horn at the southwest
corner Of Woodland park. The news was
conveyed TO Fremont by a butchers boy,
who broke the intelligence Just as Sheriff
Cudihee drove into the suburb from
Bothell. The house was quickly sur
rounded. but Tracy again exempliied his
unprecedented luck and iron nerve by de-
liberately fighting his way through the
guards, killing Policeman E. z. Breeee
and mortally ~wounding Guard Neil Rawley,
and disappeared into the brush toward
Ravenna park. Sheriff Cudihee twice had
a bead upon the desperate. but was unable
TO fire. for the reason that the fugitive
had taken the precaution to walk between
two men, whose lives would have been
imperiled had the sheriff opened IRE with
his rife.
As soon as the. last skirmish was over
and the body Of the dead policeman, to-
gether with Rawley. who was found to be
wounded in the right side. could be re-
moved from the road and later placed in
an ambulance, sherin Cudihee summoned
