 IS NOT YET FOUND
Search in Vicinity Where MT. Perkins Was Last Seen Fails to Throw
 Light on Mystery.

tTp to a late hour last night nothing had been learned of the whereabouts of A. H. Perkins of Ensley.
 w. K. Salisbury went down to Park wood yesterday and learned definitely that MT. Perkins was seen to get off the train at that place Saturday afternoon by as many as three persons, and that he stated to one person that he was go- ing over to the quarry to pay off his hands This seems to strengthen the sup position that Mr. Perkins met with foul play as he did not show up at the quarry.
 MT. Salisbury states that he secured the woods in the vicinity without effect, and that the son of MT. Perkins also searched the locality in vain for trace of the missing man.
