STILL SEEKING ALIENS
Outlaws Believed to Be Hiding in
Monumental City.

Baltimore, April l2.-Headquarters
detectives were notified yesterday to
keep on the lookout for Wesley Ed
wards and Sidna Allen, two Of the out
laws who murdered Judge Thornton
L. Massie and others on March ID, in
the court house at Hillsville, Va.
Edwards and Allen are fugitives,
other members Of the gang having
been captured. Yesterday Marshal
Farnan received communication
from the Baldwin Felts Detective Ag-
enccy, of Roanoke, which has been
working on the case. The letter states
that Allen and Edwards were last
seen in Virginia on April 6, and that
they are trying to escape through the
country and may walk for days or
weeks before taking train.
Allen, according to the description,
is wearing; a dark suit, dark overcoat
and carries slick raincOat. He is
armed with winchester shot gun and
pistol. 1t is believed he may have
grown full beard.
Edwards, the description states, is
wearing blue serge coat and vest,
stripped pants, black SLOUGH hat and
old patent leather shoes. He carries
an automatic pistol and shotgun.
It is thought that if the men have
left the mountains they might come
here and attempt to sail for foreign
country, as it is known they are we'll
supplied with money.
Marshal Farman was asked to wat
ch all foreign ships leaving Baltimore
for the next 60 days. Large rewards
will be given to those who either give
information leading to capture On

ANOTHER ATTACK ON ROOSE'
WELT.
Chargethat Pennsylvania Has Made
Sl9.OOO,OOO Out of Politics

Washington, April l2-Apnarent-
ly with the tacit approval OF Pres
ident Taft, the directors Of the chef
executives campaign today used their
second bitter personal attack on Col.
Roosevelt by reciting what they said
was the history of William Finn,
Of Pittsburg. a manager of the Col
0nel'a Pennsylvania campaign.
The Roosevelt managers assert
that the. PenrOSe machine in Penn
sylvania has attempted to divide the
colonels forces by running "decoy'
candidates for delegates who declare
that they favor Roosevelt when, ac-
cording to the Roosevelt managers,
these "decoys" will vote for whom
ever Penrosc tells them.
TO combat this move the ROose-
Welt forces have circulated al endorse
ment of delegates by the colonel
which says: The canSe for which
these candidates stand is the cause
for which ! stand" Asserting that
Finn. whom the call old Bill" is
circulating these endorsements. the
Taft people publish what purports TO
be q written agreement which Finn
tried TO make with the late Senator
Quay in 1896, five years before Finn,
according 10 the Taft leaders. was
driven out Of politics by IN upris-
ing of the people Of Pittshurg-the
same people he and Mr.. Roosevelt
now pnrport to represent. The
Taft people say even Quay wouldn't
stand for this agreement, which was
intended to provide an apportion-
ment of patronage and delegates.
The Taft attack also declares that
Finn made more than $l9.0O0,OOO
out of politics.
"Of course" says the attack, this
is not Theodore Roosevelt of the Let
the People Rule club. established by
William J. Bryan. but Theodore
Roosevelt. the practical man known
10 e Fl. Hartman and others of his
intimate friendS-when the people
are not looking" If Mr.. Roosevelt
is sincere in his protestations. if heI
means what he says in Pennsylvania,
he now stands for exactly the things
that he has repeatedly denounced

TROOPS FOR RIFLE SHOOT.
Entire Infantry Force Of Virginia
Likely to DO Duty This Year
at New Rifle Range.

Richmond, April l2.-Accordlng to
plans tentatively made by the State
military authorities, all the infantry
men of the Virginia volunteers are
to be given an opportunity this year
to encamp for ten days, four COM
panies at a time, at the new rife
range near Virginia Beach, for the
purpose of rifle practice. A positive
decision will probably be made within
a short time, and may be passed upon
the ability of large number OF men
to attend the practice duty. The ev-
ent is to be in addition to camp duty
at Mt. Gretna, Pa, and the difficulty
experienced by many men in Securing
two leaves of absence of about ten
DAYS each in one year may Interfere
with a large attendance at Virginia
Beach.
Some preliminary work has already
been done at the new range. 1t has
taken nearly two, years to close up
the deal after the State decided to
accept the property as gift, the
delays being countless and intermin-
able. So far the extent Of improve
ments consists Of the purchase Of Il
pair Of mules and of some furniture
for the old farmhouse which is TO he
the abode of the caretaker.
