John Barnes, the man who made
a sensational escape from Deputy
Sheriff Byrnes while being brought
to Walla Walla Wednesday morning,
and was later recaptured in a straw
stack on Dry creek, by Deputies
Haviland and Byrnes, was formally
charged with grand larceny by
Prosecuting Attorney Wilson this
morning, the information being filed
direct in the superior court. Barnes
is somewhat of an enigma to the Wal
la Walla officers. He is a stranger
and has the appearance of being dull
witted, but in this respect the Off
GERS say his appearances belle his
actions, as he has proven that he is
slippery when the occasion presents
itself. Barnes is charged with steal
ing a span of horses, double set of
harness and a farm wagon from the
