This morning Chief of Police Shep-
ard of this city received telephone
message from Sheriff Graves at Berlin,
to look out for two men working their
way to Barre as he suspected they
were the Shaws.
The chief secured the services of
Sheriff French and near East Barre
arrested two men. They were brought
to Barre and held until Sheriff Graves
arrived. On his arrival he found they
were not the Shaws but two men
from Randolph coming to Barre to
seek employment. They secured this
as City Engineer c. S. Currier i'm
mediately put them to work on the
sewer at Sixth street.
1t is possible many false alarms will
occur during the day in the same man
ner, as Ripton, the place where the
outlaws were surrounded last night, is
the last place in Addison county be-
fore crossing the Green Mountains.
Just as soon as they cross these noun
tains they land IN either Orange or
Washington county, so that they may
now be as near this place as any.
There is no saying where they'are as
they are evidently thoroughly ac-
quainted with the country and unless
captured soon will succeed IN getting
away altogether.

ESCAPED
The Outlaws E|ude the Officers
Again
NO TRACE OF THEME
1t is Thought They are not in
Washington County.
Especial to TELEGRAM.D

Middlebury, May l, 3 p. m.-Thc
Shaws have eluded the small army of
sheriffs and citizens who, as they sup
posed, had the outlaws snugly corner
ed near Bread Loaf Inn last night.
Where they have gone to no one has
the faintest idea, but one thing is
certain, they are not in the vicinity
of the place where they were located
yesterday.
Sheriff II. M. Chapman told your
! representative this afternoon that
there was absolutely no clue to their
whereabouts. But it is evident that
the only probable outlet which they
would be apt to take from the trap
they are in, would be directly north
through Washington county on the
east side of the mountains to Canada
They would not notice their steps
towards Rochester and they would be
completely shut off at present on
the west.
The officers are not as confident
now, said Sheriff Chapman, as they
were regarding their capture and they
may possibly make good their escape.
Considerable excitement was caused
here today by the announcement that
George Flanders at whose house the
ShawS staid over night, had come
down to Ripton in a great hurry yes
terday afternoon and called out Con-
stable Milo Bay who started out im-
mediately and has not been seen since.
There are many wild stories i, cir
culatiOn hereabOuts, but the facts IN
the case are that the Shaws have dis
appeared.
Sheriffs Cobb and Chapman have
gone to Ripton to get Flanders and
his wife who will be lodged in Jail.
The hunt has practically been given
up today and both officers and citi-
zens have been resting up until to-
night when they will exert every ef-
fort to locate the fugitivcs. The
bloodhounds have become absolutely
useless.
The students of Middlcbury college
will nearly all turn out to join in the
hunt tonight.
White River Junction, May lit
is now four days since the killing of
Dentist George w. Hoffman by the
Woodstock jail breakers, Dustin and
Frank Shaw, father and son, and the
Shaws pursued by a force estimated
at =. anywhere from 80 Ito 300
men, are still at liberty.
Frank Shaw, the younger of the
outlaws is 81 years old, and has been
wanted by the New York authorities
for four or five years. He beat a pol
ice officer at Sandy Hill with a coup
ling pin and got away. In recent
years, he and his father, aged So,
have made living in the Windsor
and Addison county forests.
Rutland, May 1.-The officers in
pursuit of the outlaws, Dustin and
Frank Shaw, have received orders to
take no chances with the latter. but
to shoot him at sight. All sorts of
rumors were rife here this morning,
but the fact remains that the Shaws
are still at large.
Middlebury, April 3O.-Thc latest
advices from Ripton concerning the
Shaws is that they are still at large.
The officers and posse are still alert

watch. A smoke indicating "A camp

AMERICANS WERE FIRST
TO ENTER THE FORBIDDEN CITY
OF PEKIN AUG I6.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-Brig. Gen.
Haywood. commandant of the marine
corps, has forwarded to the navy depart
ment letter from Capt. Charles D.
Long, serving with the marines in China,
stating that the American marines were
the first to enter the Forbidden city
There has been much controversy as to
whether the Russians, Germans, British
or Americans were the first inside the
sacred precincts Of the Forbidden city,
and this letter is regarded as establish
ing the claims of the Americans to have
been the first on the ground. Capt Long
gives the following account of the duties
performed by Company D at Pekin on
Aug. 16:
up to that time (Aug. 16) the Forbid
den city had not been entered by any of
me IN allied forces. Three of the four gates
between the Chienmen gate and the Fer
Dldden city had been forced the previous
day by the Americans, but then they
matted. and finally withdrew to the first
der from the commanding officer Of
marines to enter the Forbidden city and
seize such buildings and quarters as
might be most advantageous for us to
hold ana occupy, / moved Immediately
with my company and forced the fourth
gate and entered the city, Japanese SEN
tries objected to our entering. but 1 did
not consider their claim to any control at
that point. On entering there was no
opposition, the Chinese having departed,
leaving their tents and banners standing.
[ put guards on the best of the buildings
and the regimental colors were hoisted
on one of the administration buildings.
To the best of belief, this was the first
and only occupation of the Forbidden
city by any of the allied forces, and the
only time that any force hoisted its col
ors there. We remained there from about
$3.50 p. m. to about 5 p M, when 1 re-
celved an order to withdraw and leave
guard at the fourth gate. Capt Mat
thews and Lieut.. Little United States
marines, were the officers in Company D
Wifi mo
