Working ON q Theory.

1t Is evident that the express company Is
working upon the theory that the robbers
are in hiding in Maryland or Virginia be-
and that they are now having the entire
territory secured. All the law officers of
the counties on both sides of the river have
been enrolled in the search, and while the
express company has offered no definite
reward, ii is understood that any Informal
ton leading to the ultimate apprehension
of the thieves will be literally paid for
The rewards offered by President Myers of

George Carter Suspected.
A great many people cling tenaciously to
the theory that George Carter, the escaped
convict, was the leader of the gang, and
various allegations have been made that
he was seen in the neighborhood of the
crime quite recently. but so far the detec-

Murdock made her annual address. re-

that OF secretary and treasurer. Mrs.

Brown no less efficient treasurer foa

OF the past week at this point. The
time 10 now past when any brisk de-
mand il expected and wholesalers now
have no expectations of any great inn
provement in trade until fal at least.
At the same time the volume Of ship
ment from this point the past week was
somewhat larger than for the previous
week. AS compared with the corre-
spending week Of last year it falls about
90 per cent behind. although as COM
pared with the corresponding week OF
1892, last weeks shipments are y half
million feet in excess. So in reality,
last weeks demand for lumber was con-
siderable lighter than last years but IL
was larger than normal for the first
week of May.
