MURDER THEORY
GAINING GROUND

"nhe circumstances surrounding
the disappearance of Mes" Cole
are very suspicious" said Sheriff
Doak this morning. His deputies
are working hard on the case and
there were some developments yes
terday when Coles team of horses
was found at Occur d'Alene City
In the possession of teamster
named William G. Tamlin. Sheriff
Doak and Thomas Cole, brother Of
the missing man, went to Occur
d'Alene last night and identified the
team which was being held by Mar
shal McGovern. Nothing can be
done until Cole is discovered, or
1t Is known what has become Of
him. Tamlin said he bought the
outfit March 80 from a man who
called himself Charles Williams. He
paid $500 for it. The sheriff did
not get good description of Will
liams. Coles tent and bedding
which was missed from the cabin
with him, was not located in Occur
d'Alene with the team, and only
one of the collars on the horses
belonged to Cole.
The murder theory is constantly
gaining ground, especially among
Coles friends. At first sheriff Doak
secuted the idea, but now he ad-
mits that 1t is more than likely the
man has met with foul play.

APPLICABLE
TO RECOVER

Judge KEENAN, handed down a de-
cree this morning allowing w. E..
Apologize to collect from the Lu-
cile Dreyfus Mining company 20
600 shares of stock and decided
that all others who with Adams
brought the action, have nothing
and be made to pay the costs.
Each and everyone of the pro-
posed findings of fact in the case
of the Lucille Dreyfus Mining COM
pany against A. r. Adams ct al
asked by the defendants were re-
fused this morning by Judge Ken
nan. 1t is probably the final step
in the great trial of the stock job
berry of H. ]. Kessley who hypothe-
Gated about 100000 shares of stock
in the company. Kressley is now
serving a sentence in the peniten-
tiary for it. He would borrow mon
ey and settle the bill with stock.
At that time gambling joints were
running, and Kressley was going
the pace that kills and paid his
gambling debts with stock as we'll
as his other debts. An opinion
some time ago by Judge KEENAN,
was to the effect that those who
held this fraudulent stock had no
grounds to collect good stock for it
for the reason that they obtained it
under suspicious conditions.

SERIOUSLY I'LL

Joseph Escallier, the proprietor
of the Oxford, is slowly recovering.
This intelligence was conveyed by
the attendants at Sacred Heart hos
pital late this afternoon. He has
slept all afternoon. Escallier fell
in fit on Howard street last night
and was taken to the hospital in a

since. He came to Spokane a year
ago from the sheep ranges of Mon
tana with something in the neigh

Oxford saloon and then commenced
a lavish expenditure of money on
eevry graft in the country. Since
that time he has lost a good part of
his fortune gambling.
