Selma. Feb. 11--{speciai)-A search of nearly . week at SIfdeli. La. has failed to bring to light any informa- tien az to the mysterious disappear.nce from her home at that place of Mrs. !. s. Edmunds. niece of Mrs. Minnie A. McKinnon of this city.
 Mrs. Eimunds disappeared from her home last Friday and since then no trace of her whereabouts have been obtainable
 Mrs McKinnop of this city received a telegram from her relatives last Saturday eSening about the disappear- ance of her niece and Sunday after noon left for sIidsli. She returned to her homo in this city this morning and reports all attempts to locate her niece have been futile
 There are said to be many theories advanced around ths home of Mrs- Ed- munds as to the cause of her mysteri- ous Disappearance. Some seem to think that she has been Kidnapped and that her relatives will hear from her. Another theory advanced is that she was murdered and that after the crime the body was anchored in stream in the neighborhood of her home.
 Mrs. Edmunds was formerly Miss Kate Boggs of this city and for a number of years lived in Selma and near Burnsvflle in the northern part of the county. She married about six years ago and shortly afterwards moved to Louisiana

Ck-RAk|NG IN NEW YORK
 FOR EVIDENCE
Police Using Drag Net to Get CIeW to ASsasSinS of Lieu tenant PetroSino in Palermo, Italy.

NEW YORK, March 22.-The police authorities of this city are becoming impatient over the failure of the Pal ermo police to give them any infor- mation in regard to the assassination Of Lieut.. Petrosino. Deputy Comm g. siOner Wood cabled to Palermo for a detailed account of the crime and for such clews as the Italian police officials could furnish He sent an other urgent cablegram and he wired for the third time. Tn the meantime the local detective bureau is cruising around like Q sh' without a rudder.
 The police picked up eight or nine Italians in Manhattan and the Bronx for carrying concealed weapons, but the efforts of the local detective bu- reau were directed chiefly toward an attempt to get the most notorious of the Italian criminals fin this city lOck- ed up.
 The four Italians arrested on sus picion in Brooklyn were arraigned in court and held in 5000 bail each on the charge of carrying concealed weapons. It was suspected that the men had knowledge of the plot to kill Petrosino. but no evidence has been forthcoming.
 Governments Aid Invoked.
 Mayor Mcclellan and Police Com missioner Bingham agreed to ask the cooperation of the federal secret serv' ce in the task Of running down Petrosino's slayers. IL is also likely that an appropriation of s5O,OO0 for a secret service bureau to deal exclu- sively with Black Hand problems will be passed by the aldermen.
 The aldermen will also be asked to authorize a reward for the arrest of the murderers and a pension to the detective's widow. Some of the al. dermen are in favor of having Pc tTosino's body lie sn state in the city hau.
 Letters Of cOndoience were receiv- ed by Mrs. PetrOsino from Mayor Mcclellan, Commissioner Bingham and the Italian ambassador, Baron
