slEUTHsD DIG Up CELLAR.
Intellectual Efforts to Find Money
Stolen from Railway.
Train.

Lurav. Dec. 15.-Sleuths OF the
Postolfice Department were baked
Wednesday in an attempt TO fasten
upon George E. Huffman, Of Rock
ingham county, the theft Of $50, 900
stolen from Norfolk and Western
train between Lynchburg and Wash
ington about two months ago. Hal
B. Mosby and J. p. Robertson, postal
inspectors, and T. E. Jones, repre-
senting tie Foreign and Marine In
surancc Company, Of New York, spent
all OF Wednesday IN the cellar OF Huff
mans home, 1T Pen Laird, where,
with local assistance, they wrought
obstruction to every inch OF concrete
that covered the floor and walls.
Huffman was postal clerk on the
Norfolk and Western Railroad, and
the dav after the disappearance OF the
$4,000 went to his home, and the
following dav had the concrete
work done in the cellar. This work
being done almost simultaneously
with Huffman 5 arrival at home caused
the officials to suspect that the money
had been covered up with the con.
CRETE The cellar is about 12x2l feet
and it cost Huffman about 500 to con-
crete it.
VII IN the officials were done with it
however, it had the appearance OF
having been subjected TO Il vicious
attack from battering ram. Before
beginning work, D. w. Earmau, at
torney for Huffman. who is in the
Lynchburg jail, demanded and agree
ment in writing with the officials that
in the event OF their failure to find
the money in there. the cellar should
be restored to its former condition.
Worn out and covered with mortar,
the sleuths gave up their search late in
the evening.

Labor's Plan of Aiding
Dynamite Defendants
Wrapped in Secrecy

Profound secrecy surrounds the
plans of the American Fedora
ton of Labor concerning the aid
that will be given by that organiza-
ton to Secretary ]. ]. Mcnamara Of the
International Iron Workers Union, but
a backhanded admission made by
Secretary Frank Morrison this morning
confirms the reports that assurances or
assistance have been given by the great
labor leaders all over the country.
MIR. Morrison's attention was called 70
the telegraphic advices that the Presl-
dent of the Boilermakers' Union and the
president of the Western Federation OF
Miners had stated that their organiz<-
tons would give many thousands of
dollars to the American Federation Tor
the defense OF Mcnamara. He was
asked If these reports were true, and he
replied, You have seen the accounts In
the newspapers, haven't you?
But there have been no advices fron'
the federation headquarters as to the
receipt of these assurances OF help.
he was reminded.
We'll, we have no statement to make
in that matter at this time" he said.
Concerning the first official statement
of Mcnamara, Mr.. Morrison had no
comment to make. He maintains that
the federation is still without of1cial ad-
vice and that nothing will be done until
an official appeal is made.
President Samuel Gompers has re-
turned from his New York conference,
but was not at his office this morning:
Those in charge of his off1ce reported
that he had several conferences planned
for this morning.
