OPERATORS SLAYER
BOLDLY RODS AGAIN.

Williamsport, Pa, Nov. "a - The
whole country is afiame with excite
ment again tonight over desperate
robbery and murderous assault made
on Miller Vincent Sharp, at Curtin, a
village on the Bald Eagle Valley Rail-
road, twelve miles west of Browns
tower, where operator William Glen
denen was murdered.
The robbery was committed by a
man answering the description Of the
and special train bearing corps of
detectives has been sent to the scene
WELDED HEAVY IRON BAR.
This afternoon a stranger came into
Sharp's grist mill and engaged sack
of cornmeal, saying he would call for
it this evening. At 7:3O O'Clock to-
night he returned and found Mr. Sharp
in the mill Office alone. He rendered
a So bill in payment of the meal, and
when Sharp turned to make the change
the stranger drew heavy iron bar
from under his coat and knocked him
unconscious. He then obtained $1OO
out of the safe, got his own So and es-
capped.
Sharp recovered in few minutes
sufficiently to give the alarm. The
authorities are convinced that the rob-
Der is the Clendenen murderer and the
Allenwood robber.
A WOMAN IN THE CASE.
The mother of Clendenen, the mur-
dered operator, at her home at Youngs-
dale to-day, said:
81 don't think my son was killed en-
tirely for money, and l don't think it
was my son who sent that message out
of the tower"
II guess he had an enemy that he
did not know of, for bachelors will do
things that they oughten't to-"
The story that the detectives had
found clew which pointed to the
murder having been committed by
woman dressed in q mans clot hing
originated in the declaration that a
woman is now known to have figured
in the case. This woman, howev er
was not near the tower that night. 1t
is known that she was at home.
Day operator Gill, who was yesterday
reported had been arrested, to-day
strenuously denied the imputation.
He says that he and Glen denen were
the very closest of friends.
AGREE ON THE WOMAN THEORY.
Detectives who have investigated
the case agree with Mrs. Clendenen
that her son was the victim of deadly
feud engendered in jealousy, and that
his murderer was personal enemy
well known to him. 1t is believed,
moreover, and the belief is based on.
strong evidence, that the man who
killed Clendenen was SO we'll acquaint-
ed with him that he was freely admit
ted to the Office, from which strangers
were barred.
Evidence has been obtained which
tends to show that the man who killed
the operator was in the tower for some
time before the shooting, and two men
have been found who saw the murderer
just before and just after the shooting.
Neither recognized him but both give
the same description of the man.
The description tallies with that of
the man who was known to be bitter
personal enemy of Clendenen.
