TO BRING BACK TWO CRIMINALS
acquisitions for Hawkes. and Nor
gan, Arrested in London.

Detectives Weldon and Hewlett left
Washington last night for New York,
from whence they sail TINS morning on
the American Liner St. Louis for Lon
don via Southampton. They carry with
them the reauisition papers for Hawkes.
and Morgan both indicted here last
March, during the inaugural ceremonies
on a charge of larceny from the person.
The papers were duly issued by the State
Department and bore the signature Of
President Roosevelt
The men were released on ball in the
sum Of $500 each after the indictment
was returned, and failed 10 appear for
trial when wanted Descriptive circulars
that we're sent out asking their arrest re-
suited in their appreheI sion by the Scot
land Yard detectives.
The men secured only 50 as n result of
the crime with which they are charged
but it will probably cost the Government
;9U to bring them back to this country
aside from the cost Of trial. II is the
purpose OF the local officials to teach
criminals that however small their crime
they will he persistcutly pursued 10 mat
ter whore they may seek refuge and will
be punished for any crime committed in
this city. in this manner it is hoped to
make Washington too dangerous place
for criminals to operate in.
