Night Murderer Of Miss Fos-
berg Has Not Been Captured

Pittsfield. Mass, Aug. H.-The search
for burglars who killed Miss May Fos-
burg, daughter of X. T. Fosburg. a
Buffalo contractor at the Pittsfeld resi-
dence OF the family yesterday morning.
extended today to practically the whole
Of Berkshire county.
While a great many tramps and un-
couth looking strangers have been de-
tained by the police there is no reason
to believe that any of them was concern
ed in the Fosburg burglary.
This morning the mayor In behalf OF
the city announced that reward OF
$500 would be paid for information which
would lead to the apprehension of the
three burglars or $500 for the capture OF
any Of them. About 1900 men were out the
greater part of the night patrolling the
country roads and mountains of the out
lying districts.
Every road, public and private. is
guarded closely by special officers, con-
stables. detectives and citizens. They
were instructed TO use their weapons IL
necessary, in the event OF any of the
robbers being cornered.
