Evolved Scheme to Beat State Out
Of Thousands
COLLECTED BoUNTIES ON FAKE SCALPS
SCHEME is UNEARTHED AND HE
is ARRESTED AT SEATTLE
BY OFFICERS.

OLYMPIA, Sept. ia telephone
message from Seattle announced the
capture Of George Wright, wanted
here for an alleged attempt to secure
illegally earned wild animal bounties.
A widespread conspiracy whereby the
state has been feeced out of several
thousand dollars through different
counties of the state is said to have
been unearthed. According to the re-
ports. the crowd of which Wright is
only charged with being an understudy
operated out of Seattle, where several
hundred old wildcat scalps were OBJ
tanned from dealers and foisted off on
the county auditors as freshly killed
animals.
Wright was arrested in this city a
few weeks ago while endeavoring to
collect bounty on old scalps. On two
other occasions the county had been
f1eeced out of over $3.50, and it is be-
lieved that Wright himself took part
in the former transactions.
Bought in St. Louis.
Through investigation it has been
found that pelts which sell at whole
sale in st. Louis at 80 cents each are
being shipped into Washington in large
quantities and the scalps sold to I'M
sophisticated state and county officials
at the rate of 81 for coyotes and $3.50
for wildcats, under the bounty law.
Game Warden Mossman has been
working on the case for several weeks,
and the eXposal of the entire scheme
is expected as the result Of the arrest.
The arrest was made on the street up
on chance meeting while Warden
Mossman was looking up an auto party
that killed birds out of season. Wright
laughed, and ventured it as his opinion
that the state had bought the scalps &C
cOrding to the provisions of the bounty
law, and that even if Mossman's con-
tentions were true he had committed
no crime
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1906-09-17

he has been paid 81 each for thirty-one
coyote scalps and $3.50 each for sixty-
three wildcat scalps.
The money is paid back to the county
by the state each quarter, and the
state will accordingly prosecute Virgin
for obtaining money under false pre-
lenses MOssman is now searching
for other men believed to be associated
with Wright in the scheme.
