MAN HUNT ON
IN THE ALzADA COUNTRY
"BiIr" McCracken Sought as
Leader of Organized Gang
of Horse Thieves.
Special Dispatch 10 The Star.

Special Dispatch The Star.
SIOUX, FALLS, 5. D., September 30
For days the region near where the -FOUR
states of South Dakota, Wyoming. Mon
tana and North Dakota join has been
the scene of the most exciting man hunts
ever staged in the west. The man pur-
sued by scores of officers is Bill Nc
Cracker, charged with horse ''rustling"
on a large scale. He is the reputed leader
of a we'll organized band of horse thieves
which in recent months has stolen and
run out of the country hundreds of
horses belonging to ranchers and home
steaders.
The band is believed to have confed-
crates in remote portions of the four
states, and has in operation well or
ganiZed underground route for running
the stolen horses out of the country and,
through other confederates disposing of
them to innocent purchasers in other
states of the northwest. Some of these
stolen horses have thus far been traced
to portions of Minnesota and as far
away as Wisconsin.
Arrested as Horse Thief.
McCracken's hide-and-seek career be-
gan when arrested on the charge of
horse stealing, and when he succeeded
in making his escape from a deputy
sheriff by crawling out of window of
the Jail where he had been lodged for
safe keeping pending his trial. He
escaped the first night, and since has
led the officers a merry chase, proving
unusually resourceful in his efforts to
escape capture.
McCracken has ranch in the AlZada
country. and some days after his escape
the officers learned he had been seen
there. Sheriff Hantz and Sheriff Thorn
proceeded to the Cross Anchor ranch.
They obtained horses and rode to the
breaks of Thompson Creek.
Shortly after the sun rose, and while
they were hidden only about loo feet
from the McCracken ranch house, Nc
Cracker and another man came out of
the house and went to the barn and
MIXED a COW, returning to the house.
At about o'clock in. the morning the
two officers sent man to the house to
inform McCracken the officers were
there and for him to come out and sur
render. About that time McCracken and
another man ran to two horses which
were saddled and bridled in readiness
for a swift fight, mounted them and In
a moment were off in cloud of dust.

Sentiment Will
Decide Ball Issue

BINGHAMTON, n Y. July Ia
York State league. in the course of a
defense of Sunday baseball given out
by Owner Johnson, Of the Bingham
ton State league, says:
We object to minority rule. The
sentiment of community should be
the law of community.
We favor a decent Sabbath. We
favor purely home rule measure; a
local option bill permitting the quail
fed voters Of each community that
desire to apply by a petition signed
by certain per cent of voters to be
granted the privilege of placing upon
the ballot for decision by the citi-
zens who support and make the gov
eminent the question of permitting
Sunday baseball under rules and regu-
lations.
I'm the even of a favorable deci-
sion. then the game shall be played
only under rules and regulations
adopted by the local authorities.
These games should provide against
playing in the church or residential
districts and only between certain
designated hours in the afternoon in
order not to interfere with any citi-
zens' rights or the peace and response
Of the community.
THE taxpayers who maintain the
government are surely entitled to
this privilege. The cities only that
apply legally shall vote on the propo-
sition."

ANOTHER CHALLENGE.
ISSUES THIRD PAMPHLET
SALOON SUPPORTERS CLAIMED
THAT LOCAL OPTION WOULD
DESTROY CAPITAL INVESTED
IN MANCHESTER DISTRICT
DIsTILLERY.

Advocates for the abolition of the
saloons in Manchester district, which
will be decided by an election next
Thursday, yesterday challenged the
saloon supporters for the third time.
However, no answer has yet come
from them, says pamphlet issued
yesterday, other than to say that no
good will be done by voting them
out.
If the district votes dry says the
challenge, the distillery cannot sell in
the community by retail (see sections
5sl-5S5 Code of Virginial. but IL can
continue to manufacture and ship It's
products out of the district. Hence
the claim made about local option de-
stroying the capital invested in the
disti1lery plant Is not correct, but Is
apparently an appeal TO the voters
for sympathy.
The following is an extract from
the pamphlet issued yesterday:
The State Revenue.

ton of county revenue, which has

the saloon men have taken up the
