The Yakima herald. [volume] (North Yakima, W.T. [Wash.]) 1889-1914, 1902-07-08

| Marvin thornton returned Thursday
afternoon from Tacoma where he had
been on visit to his parents. On board
the train coming over was an Idaho
detective who had been engaged in the
hunt for the desperate, Tracy, while the
latter was in the woods near Olympia
The detective was full of stories OF the
hunt, but secuted the idea that Tracy
had performed the feat of holding up
four men and compelled them to take
him to Seattle in a launch, and stated
that it was "only another newspaper
story" In view of the recent develop
ments in the Tracy case it would seem
the detective had a small estimation of
the formers capabilities.
