ARRESTED IN SEATTLE.
Alleged Clever Bunko Man Wanted in
Spokane

SpOkane.-J Russell, alias French
joe arrested in Seattle is wanted by
the local police for a bunko trick
whereby he is said to have realized
about $1,000. The victim, William
Lawrence, reported the matter to tnt

be arrested
Lawrence is a rancher from Klicki-
tat county. He is a young man anJ
some weeks ago when he sold his
ranch for about $4,000 he went to The
Dalles, Or, to see the sights. There
he met young woman with whom he
became infatuated and the two went
to Portland. There Lawrence spent
several hundred dollars
On the return Of the couple to The
DalIes. French joe secured the con-
fidence of the young man. who was
not familiar with the ways of the
world, and told him that he was in
danger OF being shot by lover of the
girl who had been his companion on
the Portland trip. Russell told Law
renee thai the lover was after him
with gun. and Lawrence asked Rus
sells advice as to what should be
done
Russell stated that he believed it
would be we'll for Lawrence to keep
under cover and prepare to leave. and
Lawrence did So. More effectualIy to
conceal himself Lawrence gave Rus
sell an order on the bank at Eugene
for $1,000 Oh deposit there. but the
bank refused to honor the order.
Consequently Russell told Lawrence
that his pursuer was absent for a day
and the latter went in person and oh
tanned the money from the bank ana
placed 1t in a vaIise, which the tw1
carried with them. Russell imper-
sonated an officer of the internal rev.
enue, and told Lawrence that he was
travelling through the West and was
about to come to Spokane, and on his
suggestion Lawrence came also.
Here they discussed Lawrence's sup
posed predicament further and Rus
sell advised him to go to Grand Forks

over This Lawrence agreed to do
While here the two went through the
city to see the sights, with which
Russell seemed familiar and finally at
the postoffice Russell excused himself
for short time to attend to some pri-
vate business.
He then went to the room where the
two were staying and. according to
the police, removed $1,000 in gold from
Lawrence's valise and filled the space
