Early Trial Probable.
SHARON. Pa, March o6.-The Mercer
county authorities are now bending every
the case. with the design of showing that
Mrs. Boyle acted principal with hel
husband in Pennsylvania in kidnapping
the Whitla boy, and as such would be
equally guilty as her husband of kid
mapping under the Pennsylvania state
laws. So far Mrs. Boyle appears only
to have been in the plot in Cleveland
Ohio. and whether she can be held fol
kidnapping under the Pennsylvania laws
is a question the county officials are try
ing to determine. Some years ago Boyle
escaped from the Jail al Mercer, and q
feature of that incident was his subse
quent capture at Cleveland, Ohio. The
Mercer county grand jury meets the
third Monday in April. 1t is proba bic
the case will be tried May 10.
Suit cases containing effects of the
