SURVEYING OF NEW
ANNEX PROGRESSES
Major Shirley Puts Additional
Men To Work On City Ex-
tension Proposition.

The work of surveying the new an
mex, including that section of Anne
Arundel county included in the Great
er Baltimore plan, is now in full
swing. Chief Engineer Shirley, of the
Typographical Survey, yesterday put
on two additional field parties along
the northern and eastern boundary
lines, so that now four parties are
actively engaged in this work. One
party has been at work for about a
month, locating triangulation stations
and doing instrumental work in con-
nection with these stations. There
has also been party working about
two weeks on the location for the Pa
tapsco River. Major Shirley's work
ing force in the new annex now COM
prises 16 men, each party consisting
of four men. Major Shirley expects
TO have the work finished by the end
of the year.
In reporting the beginning of the
survey TO the cabinet meeting held
yesterday. Major Shirley raised the
question whether the work of the
men on these surveying parties would
be considered by the government as
essential work in war times. He said
that one of the men newly employed
had put the question up to him.
There seemed to be no doubt in the
minds of those present that work of
this kind would be classified as "es-
sential"

TWO PICKPOCKETS
ARRESTED AT MEADE.
Men Taken From W., B. And A.
Car BY Military Police. Car
ried To Baltimore.

Two members of the Military Police,
both private detectives before they en-
tered the United States service, arrest
ed two alleged pickpockets at Camp
Meade yesterday on car of the Wash
ington, Baltimore and Annapolis Rail-
way after they had kept the men under
surveillance for more than two hours.
The accused are now held at the Cen
trail Police Station, Baltimore, where
they will have a hearing.
The men gave their names as Reu-
ben Herman, alias Robert Hope, and
William Singer. Both live in Phila-
delphia They aroused the suspicion
of the military policemen at the can
tonment by following a party of men
in and out of numerous barracks and
buildings Linford n. Duffield, one of
the Military Police, who made the ar
rest, was formerly a private detective
connected with the firm of Lift Bros,
Philadelphia, and Ernest Flickinger,
the other, before he donned the khaki
was employed in Pinkerton private
detective agency. They remembered
having seen the two men in Philadel-
phia
Duffield says that after trailing the
couple for two hours he saw one of
the men put his hand in the pocket of
a passenger on the railway car and
Immediately took him into custody.
The alleged accomplice was in the rear
of the car and was also arrested.

Charged with the murder at Curtis
Bay some weeks ago of Archie Gillis,
another colored man. Robert Freeman.
alias William CONNER, colored, was
placed on trial for his life in the Cir
cult Court today
1t was not until after the noon recess
that the case was started, with the
opening statement by States Attor-
ney Nicholas II. Green. Mr. Green
called attention to the number of
murders and killings which have
taken place in Anne Arundel recent
ly and announced the States ihten-
ton to ask for a first degree murder
verdict
The accused negro is represented
by Attorney Jerry L. Smith.
The indications were that the case
would be continued until late, but
would be finished tonight
AS is very often the case in muir
der trials, some little difficulty VISA
experienced in getting jury when
Court was called. Through the use
Of challenges by defense and prosecu-
ton and by the excusing of one tails
man, Mr.. Fred W. Shaw, by the Court,
the regular panel was exhausted and
it became necessary to send the depu-
ty sheriffs out to summon extra tails
men. Mr. Smith, counsel for the de-
tense, challenged IL of the talismen,
while States Attorney Green used 3
challenges.
The jury as finally drawn consisted
of John W. Anderson, Sedwich T..

mund L. Hartge, Joseph Lauer, John
Aul, Charles M. Green. Charles B. Alb
bott, Joseph f. Smith, Addison Pun

LOCAL ANNEXATION
HEARING TOMORROW.
Anne Arunders Case Against Bal
tirnore City To Be Argued In
The Local Circuit Court.

Anne Arundel County's legal attack
upon Baltimore City's annexation law
will be launched in the local Circuit
Court here tomorrow when, before
Judge William H. Thomas. and asso-
ciate Judges William H. Forsythe and
Robert Moss. the County Commits
sioner's petition for an injunction
against the city will be argued. The
Commissioners are asking that the
courts issue an order restraining the
municipality from exercising any of
the rights granted under the Greater
Baltimore law passed at the last ses-
sion OF the General Assembly. The
contention is,made that because of its
jumping across the waters of the Pa
tansco River and changing the lines
of Anne Arundel county without a
referendum to the people in the an
nexed territory the whole measure is
unconstitutional.
The county's contention viii be
argued by former attorney general
Isaac Lobe Straus. and Mr.. r. F. Mel
vim. of Annapolis, while the suit viii
be defended by City Solicitor S. S.

KEEN INTEREST
IN HIS ACTION.
Governor Has Been Petitioned To
Commute The Sentence Of
Negro Accused Of Crime.
ANOTHER CASE CITED.
Judge McLane Recently Protest
ed Against Gubernatorial
Exercise Of Power.

Following the publication the lat
ter part of last week of a communica-
ton from Judge Allen McLane of the
Baltimore County Court in which he
hit straight from the shoulder upon
the subject of the issuance of a par
don by Governor Harrington to a man
convicted before him of completely in
the murder of another man, interest
has been revived here in the efforts
being made to induce the Governor to
pardon John Henry Evens, sentenced
to death in the Anne Arundel Court
for fearful crime upon a young ne
gro girl.
Evans was convicted at about the
same time Archie Isaacs was sentenc-
ed to hang for the brutal murder of
Miss Dora Eberts, and while the Gov
ernor has finally signed the Isaacs
death warrant he is still considering
the other case in which a petition for
clemency based upon the alleged bad
character of the 14-year-old prosecut-
ing witness.
1t is very generally felt here that
Judge Moss in imposing the severe
penalty he did in the Evans case acted
wisely. The Court in sentencing the
man to be hanged pointed out that it
was his intention to protect women,
no matter what their race, from at
tacks of the sort involved. 1t is also
being pointed out now that it is very
often only after such crimes against
women of their own race, in which
full punishment is not meted out, that
the criminals later by natural devel-
opment attack white women.
Several prominent residents of the
lower section of Anne Arundel, where
Evans crime was committed, have
since hearing of the efforts being
made to have his sentence commuted,
seen the Governor personally in op-
position to any Executive action tend
ing to nulify the action of the Court
which heard the whole of the evil
dance and weighed it carefully before
imposing the sentence.
