The evening times., 1897-08-06

Now that Carr has been captured, the
police department is turning with renewed
hope and confidence to the matter of ac-
quiring pc $50 ssior OF the slippery person of
Dorsey Foultz.
The police of the Second precinct, in
which baiiwick Foultz committed his
| crime, are especially active in following
whatever clews may be offered, and al
though the officers are at much at sea as
ever in regard to his actual whereabouts
they are reasona bly, certain that he VIII be
caught at an early date.
The eighth precinct officers are equally
Jealous ina their efforts 10 capture The crimf
nal and certain events lead the Officers or
tris urecinct to believe that they are not
| far off the track of the much-wanted man.
| Although the crime for which Fcuiz is
wanted was committed in the Second pre-
cinct. the man is best known in the Eighth
precinct, where he has many friends ana
has spent much OF his time.
1t has for some time been matter OF
Certainty with several OF the Officers OF
the Eighth that Foultz has occa slonally
visited the Camp section of Cow
towp Just north OF HowardtOwn, which IN
turn is lust north OF that portion OF the
City formerly known as lie Droit Park.
The neighborhood OF the supposed tenn
porary abiding place of the man Is one OF
the toughest and most picturesque in the
entire District, and contains thousands Of
culored people, many OF whom are known
To he friends of the much wanted man.
A few nights ago two policemen of the
Eighth precinct saw Il Colorcd man who
they believe was FoultZ standing on a cor
ncr near the line OF First street northwest,
about half a mile from the city limits.
This man. on seeing the officers, slouched
buck into the darkness and disappeared
within a house The officers followed
closely On the heels of the suspect, but lost
track OF him.
few nights later the same officers
were patrolIing their beat along Bright
wood avenue, and were opposite Scheutzen
Park. " hen they caught sight OF peculiar
looking ColOred female, standing Just within
the glare OF q street lamp.
No sooner were the officers discovered
by the individual than the latter turned
sharply atout and disappeared with alac-
r1ty down a street leading to the Camp
hN IftAit'ttiith iNiShct litt otidh-ti dhh
were gaining on her when suddenly she
was seen 10 clutch at her skirt, and with
one wrench tear it from its fastenincs.
The carIncnt thus cut loose was held tightly
III one hand v hile the owner stiIl sprinted
ahead with desperate energy. When the
fleeing figure passed beneath the next
glare OF laIEplight, the supposed female was
discovered Ia be man, fully dressed in
male apparel. His features strongly re-
scmhlod those of Foultz, and the officers
retloubled their speed.
Like a suddenly released arrow the man
sped down the street and turned into an
alley, thus eluling his pursuers. A Wig
OrOus search was instituted by the Of
ficers among the lanes and alleys in the
neighborhood. but proved frIitlesss.
In view of the fact that no one suspected
of being FoullZ has been seen for some
time trying to leave or enter the CITY 1t
isthought possible that the man nseenrunning
away from the officers iD a woman's
dress was Foultz, and that he is still in
the vicinity of the Camp
