DELANEY ACCUSED
OF SERIOUS CRIME
CHARGED WITH IA MPE G
WITH WITNESS IN BARNES
MURDER CASE.

Accused of tampering with witnesses
in the Barnes murder case, we'll
known police troubler was taken up last
night and lodged in the county Jail,
where he will await his hearing. De-
laney is the name the suspect gives,
although he is we'll known here under
various aliases, just having finished an
eight day sentence in the county Jail
under the name Of George Wilson.
De!aney is said to have served two
terms in the peniten iary and has been
troubling the police here for some time
Some two weeks ago he went to Waits
burg and came back shorty bearing
ticket for free meals and broom in the
county Jail for a period of eight days
on account of stealing a razor While
in Jail he met Bud Barnes, held for
killing Mrs. Aldrich and evidently the
two had several confabs.
Immediately upon being released it
is said Delaney went to the Idle Hour
rooming house, where the woman
whom Barnes got to write the fake
telephone messages, lives, and began
operations. 1t is said he told the two
who are almost important witnesses
the state has in the case, that they had
better get out of town. He used all
sorts of threats on the two, whose
names are Eta Anderson and Magde-
lena Jessaud, trying to persuade them
to get out of the city. This they re-
fused to do. Next it is said he tried
to bribe them, offering them 5000 if
they would leave. This also failed to
work and then he again threatened
The women tired of the treatment and
told him they would tell the police
upon which he made more threats
They then reported to the police an!.
the next time the man came around he
was nabbed and lodged in Jail.
The attempt the police say was
clever one on the part of Barnes, as
these two women of the underworld
are strong link in the chain of evil
dence against him and without them
it would be much harder for the state
to prove it's case.

KING COUNTY MEN
FAVOR ANKENY
THOUSANDS OF SIGNATURES TO
AGREEMENT TO SUPPORT
WALLA WALLA SENATOR.

SEATTLE, May 1S.-More than $500
persons, all voters in King County,
have signed voluntarily a pledge to
support United States Senator Levi
Ankeny for reelection in recognition of
the pledge that the business mems
committee gave three years ago that
King county would reciprocate for the
support given Senator Samuel H. Piles
by Ankeny's friends.
No special effort has been made to
procure signatures to the agreement
to support Ankeny at the September
primaries. The business mems commit
tee mailed circulars explaining the
compact Of 1905 and urging King coun-
ty voters to keep faith, offering an op-
portunity to those who desired to send
in a statement that they would aid the
fight. There has been no personal so
licitation and the last of the circulars
were mailed Wednesday, so that time
for a thorough digest of their con-
tents has scarcely been given. The
voluntary response Of more than $500
voters from Seattle and the country
precincts. is an astonishing response
and indicative of a remarkable feeling
of obligation to Ankeny and his friends.
Inasmuch as the circulars were
mailed indiscriminately to republicans
and members of other parties, it was
anticipated that there would be many
refusals to sign the pledge. But the
number of returned cards to the Piles
Ankeny agreement is less than three
tenths of l per cent. OF nearly 300 re-
sponses, only 1O3 persons declare their
opposition to the Ankeny agreement
and most of those represent persons
declaring themselves to be democrats.

GRAZING GROUNDS

SUPERVISOR SCHMITZ TO PERMIT

TER THAN USUAL.

Sheepmen are rejoicing over an order
which has just been issued by Super
visor Schmitz of the forestry service,
allowing sheep to Craze on some por-
tions Of the Wenaha reserve beginning
June i, instead of June Is.
The sheepman have been petitioning
for an earlier date than the one orig
ina-ly set and through the efforts of
Forest Supervisor Schmitz this has
been granted.
There is an unusual amount Of snow
III the mountains this year and this fact
VIII make it impossible for all portions
OF the reserve to be thrown open on
the early date but as fast as the ground
is in condition the grazing land will
be made available.
The snow in the mountains look good
to the grazers, however, as it means
plenty of moisture this summer and
good range throughout the dry season.
