plainly fictitious One Of them has been
identified by the warden OF the peniten-
tiary as a desperate western outlaw, who
has pal in the the prison dong time for
train robbery.
The officials are very retIcent, but II Is

ferences with Thomas Gibson Bowles,

Kings Lynn where he was defeated
by a tariff reforrner. the Liberal As
ISOLATION today definitely selected him
to oppose Former Premier Balfour in
the bye-election made necessary by
the resignation of Alton Gibbs who
gave up his seat in order to enable Mr..
Balfour to return to Parliament. Mr..
Bowles vitriolic criticism Of his former
colleague in his letters to Sir Alexan-
der Fuller Acland- Hood. the chief
Conservative whip. in which Mr..
