Baker City, Ore,, Oct. 5? Despite
every < ffort on the part of the coimty
officials, assisted by detectives from the
outside, 110 trace has been found of the
dynamiters whob'ow up ex-Sheriff Har
vey Brown Sunday night. Blood
hounds were placed on the trail at day
light after the outrage, but were un
able to follow the tracks for more than
a short distance, as the parties had
scattered rud pepper on the scent and
the hounds would not follow. The
slight evidence that was obtained at the
scene of the outrage has been pre
served. Pinkerton men are already at
work on tlie case, and several of the
Idaho officials who wore employed on
the Steunenberg case have also become
active in the hunt for the perpetrators
of the deed. The scene of the e pi sion
has been visited by hundreds of curios
ity lovers, aod the fence, which was I
partially destroyed by the bomb, Is )

Harvey Brown, the man blown up, is |
still alive, but canuot possibly recover. !
The ioss of blood was so great that it
?eem-^t miracle he has lived ho lone,
and the doctors say it is only bis mag
nificent constitution that keeps him
alive.

Goldflelds, Oct. 3? la the trial of Jack
Hines, formerly of Nome, Alaska, for
ibe killing of Count Podhorski, wbich
began Monday, Mrs. Hines this morn
ing took the stand in defense of her
busband. Her story was to the effect
that upon her arrival last March from
Nome she went to the Butler hotel, at
wbich place Count Podhorski was stay
ing. She met Podhorski in the parlor
and afterwards he persuaded her to go
to his room in the hotel, where ho as
saulted her. Some time after the oc
currence she told her husband of the
afTair, and both herself and husband
started to search for Podhorski, whom
they met in the restaurant where HIom
shot and killed him. The jury is com
posed of nine miners, most of whom
are married.
Frank D. Wells, the man who first
preferred charges against Judge Jas.
Wickerahtm at Washington, is in the
city and will leave on the Dolphin to
morrow for Washington. Mr. Wells
asserts that the resignation of Judge
Wickeraham will likely be followed by
several more resignations In Alaska's
official family. The political con
ditions, as pictured by Mr. Well to The
Alaskan, are vary rotten in the interior
and, as Mr. Wells haa the evidence
with him, and showed it to the Alaskan
and is eolm? to use if In Washington, ft
seems that his c:aim that a general
shake-up, officially, will take place In
Alaska Is well fouaded.
