WITNESS ! MURDER CASE SOW TEN
YEARS COMES OUT OF IRE
MliUK TO FAIRBANKS
Fairbanks, September 11? Jack
Quincy Bucket', wanted us a
witaoas lu one of the most celebrated
Diurder trials In the West, and who
has been sought for 10 years turned
up in Fairbanks, a pissonger from the
Koyukuk on the steamer Tanana.
The case In which Qoinoy's evidence
is so badly wanted, Is th'it of a man
ntmed Creamer, held for the murder
ot a Mr?. Mueller and her child ?t Bay
V.ew, a southern suburb of Senttlo in
1898. Circumstantial evidence cleitrly
pointed to Creamer's guilt, and the
only thing that could save him would
be the absolute proof of his claim that
ho was in Tacoma at the time tho cold
b'ooded crime was committeJ. This, he
persistently contended over since his
case came to trial, eould be provon if
one witness could be found. The wit
ness was Jack Quincy Eackett. Ac
cording to Creamer's story, Hackett
left for Alaska the night after the
afternoon on which the crime was com"
milted.
The murder bad been committed
with a hammer. The convicting facts
against Creamer were that the ham
mer had been found in his woodshed,
aud that ho bud bcca sucn spending
considerable money anil drinking heav
ily In Tacomst he evening of the s:imo
day. Oo-uior previously had liil'.o
money.
Creamer's ?splaoatloD of bii pres
ence la Tacoma was that bo had gone
over to say good-bye to Ilackett. He
had (teen Ilackett off on tho ship and
continued tbe spree.
Hackeit has been advertised for in
the numo of Quincy io tho north, as he
became known by the name of '".Jack
QulnC)" after leaving Tacoma. When
soen here yesterday he declared that
he had never hoard anything of tho
10-year* search made for him until the
last few days.
Lie foars that he will be of little
service to Creamer, however, as he
can recall few of the incidenu of bis
departure for the north. Flo remem
bers having sailed frcm Tacoma at the
'.ime named by Creamer, ncd admits
th'j likelihood of having been in com
pany with Croamer on the afternoon of
tho murder.
(feruians here are interested io the
case, as tbe search for Quincy has been
maintained largely through the financ
ial assistance of a big German society
on the coast. So long was it continued
without any success a big reward was
finally offered for Information that
would lead to the man's discovery.
Whether this olTer still stands Is not
known here.
Says "Whales" Chased Him.
But Electrician Grossman's Monsters Were Porpoises and They (
Were Merely Having Some Fun.
"Duru Ashing. anyway!" said Henry
Orosstuan of Huntington, N. Y., when
lit* cot home tin- other night anil told
of Ids experience.
Pursued l>y whales tbat turned out
to be porpoises while fishing, spilled
from his lioat by his overzealous do
t-Ire to put the Atlantic between him
self and the "whales." marooned upon
u roek with the tide rising such were |
fhe unpleasant ex|>eriences of Gross
man. Now he says he will catch all
his fish over the counter at the market.
Grossman Is .hi electrician. What he
doesn't know nUjut fishing Is a great
deal, but he was willing t>> learn until
recently. Having heard that even In
experienced fishermen could catch
hlarktlsh weighing from two to eight
pounds off Target roek. In Huntington
bay, he rowed four miles to the grounds
before daylight. At -I a. m. the other
day he had his anchor overboard and
a fat clam ou his hook. He fished pa
tiently for halt' nn hour aud had Just
?ieen nearly yanked overboard by a
tremendous bite when there was a vlo- :
lent commotion In the vtfater nenr by,
and be saw n dozen shining. smooth i
backs rise and then disappear as a !
school of what he took to lie whales i
swam straight for his dinky little boat, i
Dropping the line and permitting the i
hlacktlsh to tc<>, Grossman hauled his !
anchor up, sprang to the oars and j
started f<>r shore, a quarter of a mile j
distant. The "whales" again appeared, j
much nearer to the boat, and Cross- i
man rowed with such fervor that his !
boat ran violently on a rock, and he '
was thrown overboard.
lie managed to scramble on to the ,
rock, where he tremblingly awaited the ;
onslaught of the whales. However, j
they did not attack, and a real danger j
faced him In the rising tide. The j
whales sported alxiut a bit and then ]
struck off toward Connecticut. Hut the j
tide kept right on rising Grossman j
was in great danger when a real tlslier- j
man happened along, capture* I his boat
and towed It to lilui.
White Morse Ends His Life.
He Got Tired Being Around Every Time a Red Headed Girl Ap
peared, According to a Story Told !n North St. Louis.
A white horse, tired of having to be|
around every time a red headed girl ;
was seen and tilled with deep dispnsi
when a [>olk'ciuaii tired at him with
out hitting him. committed suicide,
according to a story told in norili St.
I-ouls.
The white horse was found wander
ing at Eleventh and Howard streets.
Nobody claimed It. and the police of
the North Market street police station
didn't know what to do with it until
John Hloemecke, a teamster, at Ninth
aud North Market streets, came to the
rescue.
"I'll feed the nap and put meat ou :
Its bones if you'll let me use it until |
you find the owner." he said.
Ills offer was accepted. For two
weeks he kept the horse, but he|
couldn't make it feel Its oats. The |
r.vre he fed it the thinner It pot. It ;
. : too weak to work.
"I'm tired of paying for a dead j
horse," said Uloemecke to Captain
I'lekcl. "Come around ami take hint <
off my hands."
Captain Plckel had no use for the ,
tamed, unflery Hteed. j
"Go over and shoot him," he said to j
Patrolman Crow. !
The horse stood In Bloetneeke's yard ]
and listlessly looked at the policeman j
as he drew his revolver. Crow nd- j
vanced, held the weapon a foot from j
the horse's neck and pulled the trigger :
The doomed nag dropped, and the j
bullet went whizzing over Its head. ]
It turned and looked at Crow with a )
sneer. It reared. Jumped straight up j
In the air. dived and struck the ground j
on Its head.
Its neck was broken. Bloemecke Is j
quite sure that the horse committed '?
suicide rather than stand around and
Jet Crow empty his revolver at It.
