To visit the silent city wherein re-

out before Magistrate and placed in
the hands OF two ex-polce officers, but
now detectives. After being on the

directed one OF his men to look IL up,
This no directed the officer to do

that effect. The chief is personally
acquainted with the MessIs. Bancroft
and knows Them to be perfect Gentle-

anything he can for them as far as his

tack was mode because his officers
