MORNING FEB, 5th. naam AND MORDERER.ARRESTED The Sheriff of this county received a dis< patch yesterday from H. Gooding. Sheriff of placer county, thathe bad Thomas Burke in jail He was arrested a€ Auburn early yes-terday morning. 6 or 7 shots were exchanged before they succeeded in-capturing him. . “PT heee are ull the particalars we have received up to this time. A posse started from this ety yesterday for Auburn and will meet Sheriff Knowlton at_that place, he being on —hieway from Sacrameuto. We give a, few iteme in regard to this noted desperado : —He eseaped from the State Prison in the year 1261, and came up te Grass Valley on. Saturday, Feb. 15th, 1862. Inthe evening of that day he went into Terrill’s saloon at Grass Valley and pushed J. M. Wright, who was atanding at the bar, out of the position + an which he stood. Wright remarked to him “make slow. Burke turned round to him and «paid, “what do you mean by going slow.”— Burke said, “I'll go as slow as I plesse,” at the same time reaching fora knife or pistol. Wright told him again to go slow. Burke said, “what do you mean-by that 1” intent on having a row. Wright said, ‘nothing, I want to bet $300 that I willt-scratch.”— Barke said, “what do you meau by scratch ? you den’t seratch nothing, you won't nor can’t scratch me.” Wright said, “I don’t want to, but I will bet $300 I will scratch.” Burke said, ‘‘do you know what I think of you? I want to bet $300 you’re a d—d gut.” Wright eaid “what's that you say?” Burke then struck him in the face, pulled out a knife and killed him instantly. He wae tried on the 16th day of April last and convicted of murder. in the first degree.— Wednesday, April 22d, he was sentenced by Judge McFarland to be hang on the 23d day of May. The case was appealed ‘to the Supreme Court and a stay of proceedings ordered tu give Bu: ke’s counsel time to file the necessary papers; in the mean time Burke éscaped. The time has now expired, and Burke will be hung. On Wednesday, June 11th, at 12 o'clock inthe day, Burke cut through bars and bolts and succeeded in” making his escape. Sherd¥ Knowlton used all means in* his power to get some tidings from him,’ but it was impessible to get anything definite. He was reported to -be at Virginia city, Humboldt, Portland, Oregon, Grass Valley and at other places about the sametime. The Sherifhas spent about $1,000 already in trying to capture him and had finally given him up, . Burke is probably the most desperate murderer in the State. He was arrested in Mexico for murder several yeats ago and escaped. He atated after he had been sentence in this county to be hung that he had been trapped as bad as he was then, when ninety-nine chances tn a hundred were against him, but he took the odd chance and got out of the scrape, and he would do so in thia case. He did, and succeeded well up to the time.— His fate is now, sealed.
