Historical Newspapers chronological , with keywords Coos Bay News Marshfield (Coos Bay), OR. MAY -SEPT 1901 fragments Gage Gallier News5 May 28, 1901 ...The sheriff [sic] has offered a reward of $350 {M. not sure whether it says $250 or $350] for the arrest of Landis, and several parties are out in h hope [print] of securing it. W. W. Gage, ex-sheriff, was in town yesterday, and on learning of the reward, rushed for Empire, to take a hand in the chase. It has now developed that Landis, Daily [sic], and a man employed at Gage's camp, left Marshfield together on Sunday morning, May 19. They kept in company as far as the Junction, where the logger turned off for the camp, and Daily and Landis continued along the railroad track towards Coquille City. Cedar Point is a little over a mile on this side of Coquille City, and it was probably after dark when they reached there. Crime Landis News3 May 28, 1901; June 4, 1901. (Landis). JUNE Landis Gage Gallier locales News3 June 19, 1901 We mentioned last week that W.W. Gage was after a man on Coos river, whom, it was thought, might be Landis; but it turned out to be a wild goose chase. The last authentic information regarding Landis is that he was seen at Arlington, Or., on June 7th, by a lawyer from Eugene, who recognized him and talked to him. The lawyer had not heard anything about the murder at that time; but on returning to Eugene and learning of it, he at once notified the authorities, who telegraphed to Sheriff Gallier. The deputy sheriff, Ed. Gallier, was at Roseburg at the time, on his return from Salem, and he proceeded at once to Arlington. Several days had then elapsed since Landis had been seen, and it is very probable that he is well into the British possessions by this time. JULY RAG Srh News3 July 2, 1901.
