HIS SIXTH ESCAPE
Big Butte Negro, Wanted for High
way Robbery, Seems to Bear
a Charmed Life.
Sixty Shots Fired at Him and He Is
Still Doing the "Tracy
Stunt

Special to The Journal.
Butte, Mont, July "a report was received
from Atho Idaho, last night to the effect that
the negro hold.up wanted by Butte authorities
last Friday, had again and for the sixth time
made sensational escape from the officers.
The fugitive appears to bear charmed life and
his Tracy stunt Is engaging the attention of all
the authorities of the northwest. Each time
he made his get away under hail Of bullets.
In all over sixty shots have been fred at him.
The negro is easily recognized by q large scar
over his left eye and his gigantic stature. He
was apprehended In saloon in this city late
Friday night on chareg of highway robbery.
With four officers about him the daring black
made dash and regained his freedom with the
bullets OF the police popping about him.
At Silver Bow he again encountered the police.
but escaped after tht officers had emptied theic
guns at him. The negro was next heard from
at Anaconda. where several deputy shertfs fired
over dozen shots in an attempt to capture
him.
| At Missoula the black had a running fight
eiuding arrest. All trace Of the fugitive was
lost sight of until the negro clashed with a po-
liceman In the railroad yards at Spokane, where.
after lively exchange of shots with the OFF,
GERS, he succeeded In making his escape pursued
| by patrol wagon filled with blue coats.
1t appears that the negro escaped from Spo-
kane on a westbound freight. He was dis
covered BY trainmen and officers at Athol, Idaho,
were notified. While they were surrounding the
train the negro made dash for some timber
near the track and made his escape for the
sixth time. The officers emptied their six shoot
ers at him, but apparently failed to hit him.
Professor Cooley OF the state agricultural COLI
lege at Bozeman has returned from an investi-
cation OF the grasshopper ridden district about
Forsythe.
! he says the insects have devoured everything
in a strip seventy miles wide and that the plains
are dotted with cattle that starved to death.

FALL OFF A LITTLE
June Lumber Shipments From Head
Of the Lake Amounted to
100000 Feet.
Lumber Market Is Reasonably Ac-

Continue Dull.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Duluth, Mimi, July S.-Recently lumber ship
ments have fallen of somewhat, tho for June
they were SO. 900. 900 feet from all head of the
lake points. This Is more than has been expected
by shippers who have kept track of the situa-
tion. good many lumber boats have been
turned into ore trade, and ships down to 1920
tons capacity carrying ore now in place Of
boards. This is having an effect on ore tonnage
and is making independent carriers uncomfort-
able.
There Is good market now for ties and poles
and railroad construction, which looked quiet
some time ago is sufficient to absorb most OF
cedar stock that has been accommodating. The
cedar tie and post business of the head OF the
lakes has never been so large as now, and in
the past two years so 1t has grown from small
figures to of immense proportions. l.. r.
Martin & Co., L. Biedler & Co., the Coolidge
Supply company and others carry on the larger
part of the trade. and have large sorting and
manufacturing yards at different points near the
city. l.. r. Martin has cedar mill at his
yard at Superior and is getting out large quanti-
ties of material. Supplies come from points all
along the lake for 100 miles and more, and
from up the ST. Louis and tributaries, and the
trade Is chiefly with the south and east and with
railroads all over the country as far away as
Texas and Oklahoma.
Both the st. Louis and Leisure mills put on
night crews this week, the latter for the first
time In several years. At this time more than
) 100 men are employed in the sawmills of West
Duluth lance.
The lumber market Is reasonably active, with
a heavy feeling on the part of some and with
good sales by others at going prices. II there
Is weak spot In the market it is in the better
grades, which undeniably high. Shingles and
1ath dull, which is probably due to build
ing strikes in the east and the common 'un-
rest Of labor which to be unsettling
things in good many lines to manifest detri-
nent of labor itself. The Leisure Lumber COM
pany has sold about 100000 feet of mixed
stock, Of which 900 feet old stock and
the rest this years cut, and has placed in addi-
ton some of its cut for coming months Others
have sold amounts asgIegating perhaps as much
more.
