POLICE STILL ON THE HUNT
Trying TO Find fhe Men who Shot
the Bourne Officers.

Elizabeth Bay, Aug. 20.-This has
been the quietest and most uneventful
day around Buzzard's bay since the
shooting affair last Wednesday, and
the excitement is beginning to wane.
The police-are continuing their efforts
to locate the men who shot the Off
GERS in Bourne. Securing the adja-
cent woods has been abandoned, tenn
porarily at least, and the detectives
are evidently resorting to other tao
tics. While Mr.. Letteney and his as
sistants are uncommunieative they
are quietly working up some elew in
the vicinity of Bonneville
Most Of the officers of this place
have been in that section all day, and
there is said to be sufficient evidence
in their possession to warrant the be-
lief that the men are in hiding in that
locality. That the officers are salts
fed that the men wanted have left the
tract of woods back of this village is
evident.
