Turns on His,
Pursuers
Deputy Sheriff Killed and
Another Badly
Hurt
Compels Boat Crew to
Aid Him Make
Escape

Seattle, Wash, July 4.-Tracey, the
escaped Oregon convict, in battle
with Seattle posse near Bothell last
evening shot and killed Charles Ray
mond, a deputy sheriff from Everett
and dangerously wounded Deputy
Sheriff Williams of this city. Carl
Anderson, newspaper man, was

twenty-five men armed with winches-
tiers left for the scene.

Seattle, Washington, July 4.-Cap-

S. yesterday gave a thrilling account
of the trip of himself and crew up the
sound Wednesday in company with
Harry Tracey the escaped Oregon
convict who, at the point of a rife
forced all hands to embark and pilot
him northward. For nearly ten hours
Tracey was commander by virtue of
force, finally abandoning it and es-
Gaping into the woods.
Captain Clark says that from the
time Tracey surprised him at the
company's houes and at the point of a
rifle took possession of the boat and
compelled the captain and his crew to
start out with him, the outlaw exer-
cised the most exacting vigilance to
prevent them from getting the drop on
him in any manner, or even from dis
cussing the matter among themselves
for the purpose of forming a plan of
simultaneous action. Only once for a
single moment did an opportunity Of
fer to take him at a disadvantage.
Thai was when he fired at a seal. The
captain made a move, intending to
throw Tracey overheard, but before he
had reloaded the rifle and was again
on guard until he landed and the boat
was left on it's return.

ENGAGE IN WARFARE

Helena, Mont, July 4.-Word has

ambush on the Dry Head, in the east

iaee SIX miles north of here. Scores of
snots were exchanged, but as far as
Nho"h no n was hit. The colliery in
the village Is operated by the Pancoast
Noai company. Last Tuesday the wash
cry was started III der the protection OF
armed deputies. There has been some
Dbl OF workmen. On several &C.
caslons the deputies discharged their
guns to brighten away the boys who
peited the washery with slingshots.
yesterday the four deputies guarding
the company's pumping station located
on the river bank were driven to cover
Dy a vol!ey of shots from the other
snore. They returned the fire and
Silenced the Attack.
Last night when darkness fell the at
tack on the pumphouse was renewed.
The company anticipated it and had a
big force of deputies on hand. For an

attacking party seemed to concentrate
Its fire on the pump house, for it was
fairly riddled with bullets. The depu-
ties shot into the bushes on the oppo-
site shore, making a target Of the spot
where the flashes of the assailants' guns
we're seen. The strikers evidently quit
because Of their ammunition being ex-
hausted and this put an end to hos
~tilities.
Several houses in the village were
struck by bullets from the deputies

but on account Of the darkness was
unable to do anything. He will take
steps to-day, lie says, to prevent a rep

because he attempted to protect his
property, and the raids have reached
such serious proportion that the farm

quarters yesterday and it is not unlike
ly hat cavalry will be sent into the
district to-day. The farmers are draw

OFFICIAL CROP REPORT.

What the Weather bureau Has to
Say About Conditions.
The last bulletin of the weather sta
ton says:
The temperature during the week av-
eraged considerably above h normal
in the middle and northern districts,
reaching 100 degree at Huron and Pierre
on July 20. The showers that occurred
were generally light, except locally in
middle and northern counties along the
Missouri river, where they were copi-
Gus. There was some local hall injury
in several counties. On the whole, it
was a warm, dry week, but very IA
vorable for the harvesting and securing
Of small grains.
Barley harvest is nearing completion
and the bulk Of h crop is we'll Sc
cured in shock or tack. Dat harvest
Is far advanced toward completion, and
that harvested has been secured under
very favorable conditions. Wheat har-
vest is progressing very ~favorably in
the middle and southern counties, and
in the extreme southeastern counties
10 nearing completion. Some rye, BAR
ley and oat threshing has been done
in southeastern counties. The general
outlook is for 4 very good yield Of
small grains.
In the middle and northern counties
the high temperature and dry weather
are maturing late wheat somewhat too
rapidly, and some injury in quality Is
anticipated therefrom, though not gen.
orally.
Corn, on the whole, has done we'll.
especially in the southern counties, but
over large areas is beginning to need
rain. Much of the crop in middle and
southern districts is silking and some
caring. The crop is still backward in
middle and northern districts.
Flax generally continues to do well.
and some has been harvested, but in
many localities is needing rain. though
not to any extent.
Early potatoes are maturing, but In
many localities the late planted are
needing rain.
Pastures need rain yer large areas,
but because Of the nature of the wild
grass generally continue good.
Haying has progressed favorably, but
to a large extent has given place to the
harvesting of small grains. That cut
has been secured under very favorable
conditions
