 CITY IN SUIT TOO ACTIVE SEARCH FOR BOOZE Proprietor of Seattle Drug Store AL leges Interior Was Completely De- mOlished By Police While Hunting for Liquors.
TOO ACTIVE SEARCH FOR BOOZE

SEATTLE. May 12.-Activity of the police in searching for hidden li- quors may result in an action against the city for damages, is the statement of w. M. Hazelett. who states he is proprietor of the Stewart Street Phar- macy, recently raided by the police.
 The interior the store, he states. was completely wrecked by the police, who broke show cases, soda fountain. fixtures, plate glass mirrors, and oth- CT furniture in the store.
 The interior of the store, he says, but the search revealed two empty barrels. the inside of which, the po- lice said. still were wet with whisky. The raid was made after a policeman arrested J. R. Wilson and Stanley G. Smith. who were sitting in an auto mobile in front of the store. One hun dred and twenty-four quarts of beer found in the car were confiscated.
 W. M. Hazelett. who said he bought the store from Logan Billingsly, April 13 last, said after the raid he would sue the city on account of the great damage done by the police. Haz- lett declared that he had not violat- ed the prohibition law and that the police had no right to wreck his store. The liquor stock owned by Billingsley was not included in the sale, and the same was being removed when the po- lice seized the beer found in the auto. \. Since the prohibition law went into effect, the Stewart Street Pharmacy has been raided many times. ,

SECRET INDICTMENTS RETURNED

Edward krause, against whom the grand jury in Juneau returned ten indictments charging various crimes, and who has been convicted on two of these charges, has also been indicted for murder in the first de- gree on two counts.
 Krause is charged with the murder .1f, James o. Plunkett and kumajiro Yamamoto.
 Ono indictment against Krause charges that on October 27, 1915, in some manner to the grand jury un- known, Krause caused the death of Jas. o. Plunkett while attempting to rob and secure the property of the said Plunkett.
 Another indictment charges that on January 25, 1913, near the Olym- pic mine. near Petersburg, while at tempting to rob and secure the prop erty of Yamamoto, Krause attacked him and inflicted injuries on him which caused Yamamoto's death.
 A third indictment was returned also charging Krause with the fraud ulent use of the mails. This inGict- ment charges that Krause in endeav- bring to secure the property of Yama- moto and while trying to have the al- legged forged mortgage foreclosed, as- sumed the name of Hartman; that he rented post office box in that name and received and sent mail under the name of Hartman, all of which acts were a part of a scheme to secure the property of Yamamoto.
 These indictments were returned | by the grand jury on the last day of their deliberations but havc been withheld by Judge Jennings because he feared the effect the announce ment would have on the minds of the jury which was then engaged on the trial of Krause on the charge of kid naping.

MAY HAVE CAUGHT
 NOTED: BANDIT
BY ATLIN OFFICERS
Believed Prisoner Is Raphael Lopez, Man Who Murdered Seven People, and Long Sought by the Police of Utah.

The Northwest Mounted Police. in cooperation with the local officers, have been working on a noted case fdr the last few weeks. As the result of their inquiries and diligent detec- tive work they have arrested man supposed to be Raphael Lopez. who is wanted in the State of Utah for the murder of six men.
 The prisoner answers the descrip- tion of the Utah outlaw but claims that he came to this province ill 1911 and that since his arrival has been working in various places in the interior. He will be held by the authorities of this city until the ar rival of men who can make he identity and root out the veraci1y of his alibi.
 The authorities in Utah have Seen looking for Lopez since November, 1913. They have notified every town on the continent of his escape and chime and have furnished officers with al full description of his height, weight, complexion and character istics. The prisoner answers to the letter the description held by the Ideal police officers.
 Newspapers all over the United States and Canada were full of the news of the murder for which the suspect is being held.
 In November, 1913, Raphael Lopez shot and killed his nearest friend by the name of Valdez. at Bingham, Utah. He immediately made his es- cape, and was followed by posse (headed by the chief of police, MT. Grant, of that city. The posse located the bandit on a ranch near Lehi. where he had forced at the point of a gun the owner to provide him with food aud shelter. Lopez shot from ann bush killing the chief and two Hepu- ties. This tragedy stopped the pur- suit until the men could be cared for and in the meantime Lopez made !,is escape.
 A special posse was placed on his trail and they traced him back to Birmingham, where he was located in a mine tunnel. As the posse were making investigations of the field he shot from the tunnel and killed two other who were attempting to smudge him out. They placed guard around the tunnel and tried to starve him out. During the sieging process the murdered made his escape and since that time has never been seen or a word heard from him. It was thought by the authorities that he made his escape from some secret passage in the tunnl.
 The local officers have wired the Utah prisoners and are holding the prisoner for instruction and identi- fication. He makes strong plea that he is innocent and that he can cstab- fish his identity and alibi. The officers are expected to arrive this week, at which time the investigation will be made.
