Bothell, Wash. July 5--Tracy,
the Oregon-convict murderer, is in
the vicinity of Bothell, almost be.
yond doubt. A tract Of territory
Is miles in circumference is inclos-
ed by a strong Gordon of armed
men. Unless the convict stole
through the lines last night, he can
hardly make his escape without a
battle. Every bridge and crossing,
every place of strategic Importance

ed by men lying in ambush. 9th

mysterious buggy With three lif1hts,
which appeared on the county Sroad
this morning about 1890 o'clock
and suddenly disappeared, has
added zest to the situation.
Tracy changed his clothes yester.

Pontiac, at the home of a farmer
named Fisher. He then took the
country road for Bothell. He was
dressed in dark blue serge coat,
brown corduroy trousers, and wore

Olympia, WASH, July 5.-The
friends Tracy says will take care
of him in Seattle are headed by the
man who provided the convicts
with means for escaping from the
Osegon penitentiary, according to
the story told by Frank Scott, of
the shanghaied crew crew of tie
launch IN. & S." Scott returned
to Olympia today. He says he had
long talk with Tracy as they sat
on the railroad track near Billiard
after landing from the launch.
''The best friend [ ever had is in
Seattle" said Tracy. "That's why
[ came here. He helped ne out Of
the penitentiary, and when l get
with him in Seattle, I'll be all
right" Tracy did not mention the
mans name.
1t was during this conversation
that Tracy told Scott the location
of Merrill's body. The informasion
was given at Scott's solicitation.
''I'm poor devil, working for
wages" said scott. why not tell
me, Tracy, where MerrilI's body is,
SO can get and claim the reward?
1t can make 10 difference to you.
"They'll beat you cut Of the mon
ey, sure, but I'll tell you anyway"
was the reply, and Tracy then de-
scribed the spot minutel. Scott de-
clares his implicit faith in the sto-
ry Of Merrills murder, and believes
he can readily find the body. He
says, however, that be is holding
back until be receives some assur-
ance from the Oregan authorities
that his right to the reward, if he
produces MerriIl's body, will Eot De
contested on the theory that such
finding of the convict's body was
not contemplated in the terms of
offer. The hope Of securing the re-
ward prevents his repeating what
Tracy said about the location of
the body.
Tracy said he shot Merrill three
times. The first shot struck Mer-
rill in the left side, penetrated
through his body and shattered his
right wrist. The second shot struck
hiu in the back as he fell and the
third wal fired at closer range, as
Merrill lay on the ground, and went
through the head.
