to Ritzville, where it caused great re-
lief.
Sheriff ellison wired late yesterday to
COlfax and Sheriff Ratliss, with Dep
uty Sheriffs Daley and Dickinson, took
the train to Winona, where they struck
into the open country and commenced
to work toward Kahlotus. Late in the
night they captured young man. Geo.
Howard. who was riding horse. He is
known to be familiar with the country
and a practical horse and cattleman
and it was feared that he was assisting
the desperadoes in getting out of the
country. He was taken back to Col
fex by Deputy Sheriff ra1ley and put
il. Jail.
Sheriff ellison. who exchanged shots
with the men yesterday, states that
there are two Of them and that they
were heavily armed. They COM
menced firing as soon as the posse
came within range. The extreme
roughness of the country is causing the
authorities much trouble in affecting
a capture.
Word comes from Sheriff Ratliff this
afternoon that he and Sheriff ellison OF
Adams county are in communication
near Winona and they think they have
the thieves within a 10 mile circle and
they are confident they will have the
thieves before night. They are on the
western borier of Whitman county.

YESTERDAYS FIELD MEET
Ankeny Field and Main Street
Scene Of Enthusiasm

When Il crowd of 200 yelling, sing
ing and laughing school children took
possession of Main street yesterday
afternoon the tOwnspeople got their
first inkling Of the results of the second
annual intergrade track and field meet
of the Walla Walla public schools.
There was no excuse for any one with
in mile of Main street not knowing
who the victOrS were in yesterdays
holly contested cinder path events. The
welkin was surely shattered by the
exuberant yell Of the Washington
school and the street was soon lined
with hundreds of spectators attracted
by the unusual outburst.
College men and high school boys
have paraded the streets before but
none Of these are in it with the joy
Gus students of a grade school when
it comes to making noise. Yale and
Michigan would do well to send yell
leaders back to Walla Walla to take
lessons in the noble art of yelling. For
that sheer unalloyed blissful sound
the yells of the grade schools are with
out equal anywhere.
The grandstand and bleachers at
Ankeny Field were filed to overflow

MORE ENGINES USED.
Traffic in and Around La Grande Re-
quires Six More to Handle Freight

Immediate relief for the congested
freight conditions in La GranGe and
on the mountain division is proTi;cd
by the coming of six freight engines
from the Oregon Short Line and the
Union Pacific roads, says the La
Grande Observer.
J. H. Watson. master mechanic for
the division point in La Grande is In
Huntington today where he will take
charge of the additional engines and
bring them here for immediate use.
The late purchase of new engines
for the o. R. & n. was not sufficient
to meet the demand for mountain en-
eines. but the local officials are hope
full Of properly handling the freight out
CT this city and the trains coming
through here, with the additional as
sistance of the engines from the adj
jacent roads.

neighborhood will, it is expected, be
rounded up near Rock Lake not later
than tonight. Sheriff ellison of Adams
county is following their trail closely
and Sheriff Ratless and Deputy Sher-
ifs Daley and Dickerson of Whitman
county are advancing in the oppo-
site direction with strong posses and,
it is thought, they can not POSSIBLY es-
cape.
Early yesterday morning the thieves
purloined team from farmer llv-
ing near Krupp, in Douglas county.
Near Paha they forced another settler
to exchange horses with them at the
point of loaded revolvers. The sheriff
of Douglas county chased them over
the line into Adams county. where
Sheriff Gibson took up the chase.
At the Taylor ranch, north Of De-
light. they effected another exchange
of horses, again at the point of their
revolvers. The thieves are now head
ing for Kahlotus, where Deputy Sher-
iff Ed Owens is lying in wait for them.
At one time yesterday Sheriff ellison
got close enough to exchange shots
with the desperadOes and it was at first
reported that the sheriff had been shot.
He wired ahead to COlfax, however,
that he had emerged safely and the
news was Immediately communicated
