ABERDEEN
OUTRAGE.
The Fiend is Yet at Large
But His Capture is Yet
4 Looked for.

Aberdeen, Nd, Feb. 23.-All day
long posses have been securing all
parts of Hartford county for William
Black, the negro suspectedof feloni--
GUS assault on Jessie Bradford,
aged IL years, daughter OF Edward
Bradford, who lives near this place.
Many clues have been followed, but
at late hour the man had not been
captured.
All last night Blacks house was
watched, it being thath he would Join
his wife, Mary Black, there, but he
did not appear. and at day light
the watchmcn gave up their vigil.
Soon after they left the woman,
carrying her 2-year-old child and a
bundle, left the hut and started
westward. She was followed and
walked all the way to Edgewood,
II miles south of Aberdeen. She
crossed the Bush river bridge over
the Pennsylvania road and went
direct to a negro shanty in which
lives the daughter ofJacob Johnson,
an Aberdeen negro That house is
being carefully watched tonight by
a posse, as 1t is thought Black may
try to Join his wife there. 1t is
thought by many, however, that sh c
was to have met Black there last
night. but was prevented by being
locked up in Aberdeen all day.
Those who share this belief think
that the negro has crossed the Gun
powder and is making his way to
Baltimore or to Sparrows Point.
A barn at Edgewcod which was
closed tight last night was found
open this morning, and depres-
sion in the hay seemed to indicate
that someone had slept there. Pos
sibly it was Black, who had failed
to meet his wife at the house in
which she is Gagged tonight.
A report reached here from Lore
ly, station south of here on the
Baltimore and Ohio, that negro
answering Black description was
seen from a freight train walking
along the tracks this afternoon 60
ing toward Baltimore. AS soon as
the freight hove in sight he ran into
the woods. A posse has gone in
that direction and others are still
at work in the northern part Of the
county.
J The Hartford county authorities
today offered a reward of $3.50 for
Black capture, which, added to
the 800 offered yesterday by the
town of Aberdeen, increases the re-
ward to $3.50 1t has been learned
that Black has the name Of William
Smith tattooed on his arm, and not
William Black, as was first re-
ported.
The town is alive tonight and if
Ithe negro is caught he will I'M
doubtedly be lynched. The pro-
gram is . bring him to Aberdeen,
have Mis- Bradford identify him
and string him up to tree in the
Public Square. The crowd here
and the posses are made up of de-
termincd men, but there is no dis
order. DR.. ]. H. Kennedy today ex-
amncd Miss Bradford. The girl is
doing we'll, and her mother, who is
much Frustrated, is reported in an
improved condition tonight
The condition Of the p, w, & B.
train arriving at Union Station at
s clock last night reported to Ser
geant Walmsley that a colored wo-
man, thought to be Blacks wife,
hailed his train near Bush river, in
Hartford county. The train was
stopped and the conductor said the
woman asked him totake her across
the river. but that he refused.

COTTON.

On the strength of good outside advices
and a firm local feeling prices in the cot
ton market were marked up 1-16 cent to-
day on all grades. While there was not
much activity, it is believed a steady i'm
provement will prevail until prices not
only fully recover losses, but go even be-
yond expectations. In some quarters pre-
dictions of 11-cent cotton are heard, and
while this is a higher price than the more
conservative expect it is generally ad-
mitted gains are in store. The turn in
the weather is a strong element of the
bull argument. The receipts to-day were
1856 bales, and this season 9SO2S3 bales,
against 1928 last season, showing a
shortage this season of 16,999 bales. The
stock to-day is II, 255 bales.
The following were the official spot quo
tations, at the close of the market, at the
Cotton Exchange to-day:
