THUGS IDENTITY
STILL A MYSTERY.
Efforts to Connect Elmer Belk
with the Recent HOIdups
Prove Unsuccessful
WOMEN CALL AT COUNTY JAIL
Or. and Mrs. Barnhardt Assert
Prisoner Not the Man Who
Attacked Them
WOMEN CALL AT COUNTY JAIL

Elmer Belk, held in the county jail
on a charge of having violated his
parole and accused by the authorities
of having attacked Alexander Hanil-
ton and Miss Mary Verde, has not been
identified by any Of the other men and
women held up recently by q mystic
rious criminal. Every effort made
yesterday to connect Belk with recent
attacks on women failed.
Dr. and Mrs. William Barnhardt,
2209 Michigan avenue, who were held
up the night of September IA, called
at the county Jail yesterday and after
q good look at Belk positively asserted
that he was not the man they accused
of the attack Several women who
would not give their names to the
county Jail attaches asked to see the
prisoner and after seeing him declared
he was not guilty of the attacks on
them.
Sheriff Hammel does not think that
Belk is the man for whom the police
and sheriff's Office have been looking
for weeks.
who attacked him and his wife was
taller and more erect" said the sher-
iff. I'VE will be glad to have any
other person who was attacked call at
the 1ail and have look at Belk, but
I hardly think he is the man Tor
whom we are looking"
Belk's reputation before he was ar
rested at first gave the authorities the
impression that he was probably the
man wanted. He has been in trouble
before and is no stranger to the police.
They believe he was a member OF the
notorious coyote gang" which infest-
ed the city several years ago and was
responsible for many holdups and rob-
berries.
Belk was on a three years parole
for the robbery of an old man two.
wears ago. He lives on the Mission
road with an aged mother who called
to see him at the county jail yester-
day. Their interview was short and
the woman went away with her head
bowed before the scrutiny of the crowd
and apparently much affected by the
meeting with her son.
Belk will be held on charge or
violating his parole until charges are
filed against him by Miss Verde and
her companion for the attack of Mon
day night, which he does not deny.
His excuse for the attack is that ne
nistook the couple for persons he
knew and with whom he had formerly
0uarreled. They deny ever having seen
him before.

JAIL BUT GOES
BACK TO MEXICAN CELL
Fugitive from Tia Juana Rear
rested in San Diego

SAN DIEGO, Sept. 23.-When Man
uel Flores, a Mexican, broke jail at
Tia Juana, Lower California, and es-
capped across the line to San Diego he
did not reckon on the possibility OF
return to his native land without a
hearing in the American courts.
He was arrested in San Diego last
night by United States immigration
officials, placed in the county jail and
this morning delivered to the Mexican
authorities.
Early this morning a rurale appeared
at the Jail and demanded the pris-
oner. He was laughed at. He went to
the office of the immigration inspector
and later the inspector demanded the
prisoner Of the sheriff. Inasmuch as
the man was held subject to the in
spector's order the demand was COM
piled with and he was hustled into a
waiting automobile and hurried across
the line without being allowed to en-
gage an attorney or have hearing.
