Baker City. Oct 10? Frank Tucker, a man
who has been employed in mines and mining
camps as cook- mucker and roustabout, was |
arrested here last night by two Pinkerton
men assisted by three deputy sheriffs and
brought to the county jail. Later he con
fessed to the assassination of Ex- sheriff
Harvey Brown. He declined to give his rea |
son at first for having committed the dead. '
but afterwards made a complete confession
and implicated Frank Wilson, an agitator
and member of the Western Federation of(
Miners who was in the Couer d'Alene troubles
in '99. Tucker states that the deed was com- j
mitted to avenge a wrong that Brown had I
done him, but the Pinkertons claim that they
have evidence which will connect the Miners
organization with the crime
Feeling against the prisoners is bitten here
and the jail has been surrounded witii an
angry crowd of men since mid-night, A large
force of extra deputy sheriffs are on duty to
prevent an attempt at lynching, which it is
feared may take placo at any moment.
Wilson, the man implicated by Tucker ,
was arrested in a saloon a few hours alter
Tucker made his confession and is believed to
have been spirited into jail by the officers.
