Sheriff Van Pelt Authorizes
Additional Hundred Dol
lars for Capture.
LONG CHASE ENGAGED IN
WITHOUT EXPECTED RESULT
Another Deputy Let Out by
: Sheriff Because of the
Getaway Friday.

Tired and disappointed, Sheriff Var
Pelt and several deputies at an early
hour yesterday morning returned from
a fruitless chase after the rather
elusive Blackwells, a trip to Walnut
HILL having been made the night be-
tore. The machine in which thew
made the trip suffered a breakdown.
and the sheriff and one deputy walked
for miles through a storm ridden
country in order to reach store
where it was reported stranger,
said to resemble one of the Black
wells, and who claimed to be a tele-
graph Ineman, had purchased eat
lables early in the night. The officers
could make nothing in the nature of
an encouraging report upon their re-
turn.
Sheriff Van Pelt let another go yes-
terday. This was Henry Fillingim,
who has been on the local staff of
deputies since the sheriff took charge
of the office months ago. He said he
would rather not discuss the reason
for letting the deputy go. This was
the third to lose out as a direct re-
suit of the escaping Blackwells.
Yesterday the sheriff had printed a
large number of circulars descriptive
Of the Blackwells. These will be free
dy distributed. They offer $500 re-
ward dead or alive for the capture of
Will and Bob Blackwell, who are de-
scribed as follows:
Description of Will Blackwell.

Description of Bob Blackwell.
About 25 years of age; five feet 6
to s inches tall, weight one hundred
thirty-five pounds: black hair and
brown eyes; high cheek bones, also
has Indian like appearances; stammers
least bit when speaking; appears
with smile, clean shave when left.
Reward Further Increased.
In addition to the above, Sheriff
Van Pelt authorized The Journal to
state that an additional $1O0 will be
paid for each of the men captured,
or if information is given which will
result in their capture.
The sheriff yesterday had call to
the Pensacola hospital where an in
dividual is said to have offered some
information, and this clue will be fol-
lowed carefully.

Official Statement

Washington, Oct. 3.-The follow
ing official statement was issued: An
American destroyer. operating in
European waters was severely dam
aged in a night collision with a
British naval vessel. After the ac-
cident the British ship stood by, took
off part of the destroyer's crew and
towed her into port. No one aboard
either shop was Injured and the de-
stroyer has since been repaired ars
returned to active service.
AN investigating board of naval
officers found that the accident was
due to the fact that the destroyer
suddenly emerged from a heavy rain
storm which made her invisible al
most up to the moment of the COLI
sion. 1t was, therefore decided that
no blame attached to either vessel"

fiared up again in the house todav.
when Representative Mason of Illinois
made a speech contending that Het-
lin had inferentially charged Mason
with treason and "linked him up with
Emma Goldman"
Representative Heflin requested
consent of the house for time to re-
ply to Mason's remarks and to name
the men he thought had acted sus-
piciously' but objection was made
by Representative Garner, of Texas,
and the row for the time being was
brought to an end.
The house, evidently sick of the
row, groaned when Hefiin asked
unanimous consent to reply to Ma
son and applauded when Garner OBJ
jected. The house was disinclined to
risk reopening the matter at all by
hearing Mason, but there was no par
liamentary means of avoiding his
speech on the ground of privilege.

ASSOCIATED PRESS SUMMARY.
Germans continue to unleash large
numbers of troops against the British
forces in Flanders in an effort to re-
capture terrain in the Ypres sector,
where the British are seriously
threatening the Teutons line of COM
munication with Ostend, and the sub
marine base at Zeebrugge, Belgium,
but the German attacks are a COM
plete failure so far. There is no indi-
cations when Haig's forces win move
forward in an attempt to cut the inn
portant Ostend-Lille railway.
Germans claim the capture of
long line of French trenches in the
Verdun sector, but the French deny
such report.
French aviators are continuing their
attacks on German towns as reprisals
for German air raids over France.
Aerial battles between italian and
Austrian aviators, mark the fighting
in that region.

Washington, d. c.. Oct. 3.-Accom-

Trammell, and Congressman Kehoe
and Frank Clark of Florida, the dele

ment the advantages of the site near
Crestv-cw for the location of the
proposed machine gun school, made
a drive on the war department to-
day. They did not receive what
might be called a hospitable recep-
tion, but encountered at every turn
evidences that the war department is
tired of receiving delegations urging
selection of sites and is detir.l ned
to send them all home discouraged

time and in its own way, purely on

Adjutant General Mccain, upon
whom they first called, gave them but
little information or satisfaction and
passed them along to Secretary of
War Baker. Mr.. Baker told them he
knew nothing about. the matter and
passed them along the line until shey
got to Major General Tasker Bliss,
the new chief of staff, who said the
report and recommendations of the
investigating committee had been re-
ferred to the war college, which
would review them and return them
to the department with recommenda-
tion.
The delegation was told by some Of
the war department officials that the
department had no intention of es-
tablishing the machine gun camp at
once, but had obtained the informa-
tion solely for reference when it was
determined to establish the machine
gun school. 1t will be some time.
they were told, before the site will be
selected.
The West Florida delegation, for
the most part, refuse to be discour-
aged, however, and declared tonight
their intention to remain here on the
ground until the camp is located. The
are still as confident as ever that the
site in Western Florida will be Sc
lected. A few of the men left for
home tonight.
Tomorrow, delegations from Mobile,
Fayetteville, N. c.. and several other
places have appointments with Sec
retary Baker in regard to the machine
gun school camp.
Secretary Daniels advised Senator
Fletcher today that, after examining
a number of proposed sites in Flori-
da at which to locate an aviation sta
tion for the training of f1iers, it has
been decided to place the camp at
Miami.

AT CITY HALL IN
A RECORD CLASS
IN THREE DAYS
MORE THAN IN ANY MONTH
OF OCTOBER IN OTHER WARS
OF THE PAST.

More than $4,000 in city license

ber, and the forces in the Office OF
City Clerk Eggart and Comptroller
Bayless have been earning their

payer said when he came in hurry
to pay before 5 o'clock and found
a line of probably a dozen ahead of
him.
The license charge is paid at the
office of the clerk, who issues a re-
ceipt and the comptroller's Office then
issues the license upon such presenta-
ton.
The collections have been in the
record d-breaking class, according to
records in the office of the clerk. It
is claimed that more monev has been
paid in the first three days of October
this year than OF any of the previous
entire month of October in the past.
When it is considered that practical
ly all the licenses procured were in

the activities in the city offices.

The damage is not located in any
