The new regulation Of the District Commits

A REIGN OF TERROR.

Farmers Fear the Vengeance of Pinkney's
Friends if They Hunt for the Murderer.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
MARLBORO, Nd, June 5.-Wm. Pinkney, the
murderer Of Mr.. Francis VI. Bowie, is still at
large. The sheriff went home Friday and re-
turned Satui day. He stayed in town all day
Saturday, and as no information was received
here Of Pinkneys being located, there was no
effort made to take him.
Saturday night passed and Pinkney was not
in the Jail, as promised by the sheriff.
The sheriff, stated in The STAR. is much
incensed over some criticisms printed about
him, and corroborates in full the article in ref
erence to reporters visiting the scene of hang
ing where Daniel Barber will be hung, as well
as VIM. Pinkney, provided he does not leave
the Marlboro swamp, where he is supposed to
be located.
The sheriff stayed in town until yesterday
morning, when he returned home. He will be
here to day, and it il understood il any red
hot clues can be obtained there will be q big
searching party on the watch tonight.
Some of the colored people have expresse d
their views freely on the subject Of Pinkney s
escape and capture. They say that as be
eluded the vigilance Of the guard and is at the
present time q free man they will offer no aid
in arresting him, and think that none Of their
people should do so.
TIE SrAn's correspondent overheard group
of them discussing the affair. and one OF them
expressed his opinion that if any one of them
should give aid to Pinkney's pursuers he ought
to be made to suffer as Pinkney will when he is
caught.
The reward Of s250 offered by the sheriff
'is large enough" is expressed generally by
the leading men Of the community, who say
that il there not enough public-spirited
citizens in the community interested in the
capture of Pinkney to render all aid to the OIL
GERS necessary to effect his capture then it is
well for him to be free.
A good many Of the people who have valu-
able farms and buildings, while not afraid Of
Pinkney personally, fear that by aiding in the
search or attempting to assist in his pursuit,
while Pinkney himself might not do it, some Of
his many friends might make them suffer by
injury or destroying their crops, cattle or
buildings
The rope to be used at the execution has
been completed. 1t was made III Washington
Sheriff Middleton came in town this morn
ing. Nothing has been heard OF Pinkney since
Friday.
