 ATTEMPTS ESCAPE
Rouse Will Today Be For mally Charged with Mur-
 der of Negro Barber.

Will Rouse, negro, arrested at Lit tie Rock Tuesday and brought back to Pine Bluff on charges of stealing several horses and buggies, will be formally charged with murder today, when Chief of Police Frank Stewart will swear to an affidavit that Rouse shot and killed Ed Harris, the aged negro barber, near BellWOod cemetery about three weeks ago.
 The automatic pistol with which the shooting is said to have been done, and which had been stolen previously from another negro, has been recov- cred by Detective Rotenberry, at Lit tie Rock, at place in the capital city named to MT. Rotenberry by Chief Stewart, in long distance tele- phone conversation yesterday.
 Chief of Police Stewart returned yesterday from Earle, Ark, via Mem phis, having il custory Will KinnOn, negro, who is member of the gang of negroes which has been so busy stealing horses and buggies here the past few weeks. Tho arrest of Kin non makes a quartet of blacks now held here on such charges, the others UClES w III INOuoC, oSCdI INOuoC oIO John Henry Rouse. The Rouse ne groes are brothers, and their young est brother is still being sought by the authorities.
 That the evidence against Will Rouse for the murder of Ed Harris is complete, was the statement made yesterday evening, and Chief of Po- lice Stewart stated he does not think there is any doubt whatever the ne- gro will be convicted. Constable Clint l Green, who has also been at work on the case, coincides with the view of Chief Stewart.
 Harris was shot in the back of the head while going to his home aear | the cemetery late Saturday night l three weeks ago, and his murderer robbed his person of a. number of arti- cles, some of which have been recov- erod by the authorities at places where Will Rouse disposed of them.
 Will Rouse made attempts yesterday to escape from the city jail, where he has been confined. but without avail
 He had already bent one of the steel | bars. when he was discovered al work. He was then removed to ono of the cells from the bullring. An other negro is kept in the cell with him, to guard against further efforts at jail breaking

Usually these plans have failed. for some reason or other. This was tue case with Ruskin's grocery, for Rus. kin himself found it expedient to close 1t.
