ABOUT BOOTH,

READING, PA, April 20.
To s. Bradford, Esq.
On my return from PottsVille, the rep
resentations to me last evening were such
that sent special engine to Pottsville
after the up evening passenger train, but
the man had left the train at Auburn, be-
fore the telegram could reach it. He then
walked back to Port Clinton after dark
and stole his passage to Tamaqus on one
of our coal trains last night. He is now
caught at Tamaqus, where we telegraphed
TO look out for him, and will be held till
identified. There has been some ground
for suspicion that it is Booth.
