Houston, Tex, March 29.-AlI day
and night armed men with trained
'bloodhounds have been searching for
the tWenty-eight negro conVicts who
made their escape Sunday night. So
far three Of them have been caught
and there are now eleven of the
bunch somewhere in or about Hous-
ton. Every road leading into the clsy,
has been guarded closely. A farmer
picked up one of them who was con-
cealed in the bushes. A justice of
the peace got two more off a freight
train and the captured men reported
that there were eleven others On the
train when it reached the junction
where it switched into the Houston
belt line. Reports from the bottoms
indicate that none Of the convicts
went that way, as the dogs have
failed to strike trail, but one posse
with bloodholndss started q few of the
convicts toward Richmond. The
chase by the guards from the peniteil-
tiary has been a persistent one, but.
there is SO much water in the small
streams that the bloodhounds have
often been at fault and have done
little real good.

GIVEN TEtI-YEAR SENTENCE
JUDGE TAYLER DENIES NOTION
OF MRS. CHADWlCk'S ATTOR-
NEY FOR NEW TRIAL.

Cleveland, March 29-Judge Tayler
Of the United States district court
has denied the motion of Mrs. Chad
wicks attorneys for new trial and
sentenced the woman to ten years in
the state prison.
An appeal will be taken to the
United States circuit court OF appeals.
Mrs. Chadwick was convicted on
seven counts and sentenced upon six.
For four of these counts a sentence
Of two years each was imposed Upon
two counts a sentence of one year
each was pronounced Attorney j. p.
DaWley, of counsel for Mrs. Chad
wick, took exception to the sentences
upon each count, except the first
count. The defense intends to make
the claim that the court cannot inn
pose separate sentence for each
count and that the law applied to the
general charge instead of each incl
dent of a general charge. The vari-
Gus counts of the Indictment are con
sidered by the defense to refer to de-
tails Of the general offense. This and
other points of the Chadwick trial
will be contested.
The first step taken by the defense
will be to ask fer a stay of sentence
until the appeal is carried out. II the
present conviction and sentence is
sustained by the last court the other
six indictments will be dropped,
otherwise they will be used against

Parle county, during the evening,
completely demolishing the business
district, consisting of about a dozen
stores, wrecked three grain elevators
and a grain depot and unroofed or
damaged nearly every house in the
village. Seven persons were injured,
several seriously, as follows: :
Ole Winger, badly bruised; Mrs.
Ole Winger, bruised and internally
injured; Minnie Winger, badly cut;
Jennie Winger, aged seven, neck dis
located, arm fractured and internally
injured, will probably die; John Win

sixty-fve, seriously bruised; Fred
Moen, hurled 200 feet, badly injured.
The wind, which had prevailed all
day, reached a high velocity toward
evening, and at $50 O'clock became

was received and from Appleton doc

twelve miles south of the stricken
village, also sent aid to the sufferers.
The direction OF the cyclone, it is
reported, was from southeast to north
west, and beside the high wind that
prevailed it gave little warning OF its
approach. That there were not a
number of persons killed by falling
walls and flying debris is considered
remarkable.
