New York. Dec 21-F0rmer Cover
nor Benjamin Odeu. Chairman of the
Republican State Committee, made a
statement to-day in which he charged
President Roosevelt era Governor
Higgins with a deliberate attempt 70
wreck the party in New York for
their own personal ambitions.
Odei's accusations are part OF a
comment on the situation growing out
of the contest in the republican par
~ for the Sp9akership Of the Assem-
bly,. Odell declared himself in favor
Of Z. A. Merritt several days ago and
on last Monday Governor Higgins
came out in favor of j. w. Wadsworth
Jr. Odell said that he understood
that Governor Higgins -avored Mer-
ritt and was surprised when ne
switched his trolley" Odell declared
is was the worst piece of political
duplicity he ever knew.
Governor Higgins said the Presi-
sent was not interfering in the Speak
ership contest and that Odell had no
authority to use his name in support
of Merriu's CANDIDACY In an inter
view tonight he denied Odells au-
thority TO use his (Higgins) name as
favOring Merritts candidacy, and
closed by saying he did not care TO
discuss, through the papers, with eX-
Governor Odell, questions of honesty
or dishonesty He said 50 far as the
future of the Republican party was
concernea it may be safely left with
the press and the people whether his
action was wise or not.

LOOKING FOR ELoPERs.
Local Police Asked to Find Young
Couple From HyattsvilIe.

Deputy Sheriff Vincent of Prince George
county, Nd, called upon Capt. Boardman
at police headquarters this morning and
requested that the local police be asked to
look out for George Sacks, twenty-six years
old, and Edith G. Moffatt, fourteen years
old. He told Capt. Boardman that the
couple left Hyattsville yesterday afternoon
about o'clock to come to this city. Miss
Moffatt, he stated, is large for her age and
has light complexion. When she left Hy-
attsville yesterday she wore black skirt
black coat and red waist. Sacks has dark
complexion, black eyes and small mus
tache.
Miss Moffatt was employed In a tailor
ing establishment and left there yesterday
in time to board the O'Clock car to come
toward this city. Her mother went to the
station to meet her. and was surprised
when the daughter failed to return. She
then called upon the deputy sheriff and had
stated that Mr.. Sacks had been paying at
tentions to the young lady but her mother
never suspected that she would run away.
: The Maryland officer stated that Mrs
Moffatt thinks her daughter came away
for the purpose of getting married. On ac-
count of her age she could not get married
here without the consent of her mother.
No license for the marriage of the couple
had been issued from the clerks office this
afternoon. The police of the several pre-
cincts have been instructed 10 look out for
the couple.

hctitious. The persons giving the names
were evidently bent upon malicious mis-
chlef. Neither of the ladies mentioned in
the dispatch was in Baltimore at the time
mentioned nor have they ever been in that
city. AT the time of the arrest of the two
case was being investigated by the grand
jury, both Mrs McQuade and Mrs Dulin
We're at their homes in this city We have

Indictment can be and can think of no per-
sons who could possibly have created such
an unfortunate and unpleasant situa ton {"
Mr.. Dulin makes an equally vigorous
statement to the same effect in respect to
Mrs Dulin. The shoplifters skipped bali in
Baltimore and when caught will be prose-
cuted. Mr.. McQuade says, on an additional
charge. based on the false names given by
them to the police. to the embarra ssment
and annoyance of the two Washington fam
lilies.
