FINNS ROUT BOLSHEVISTS
FROM TOWN OF OLONETZ

HELSINGFORS, April 2S.-A ma
tfonal assembly has been formed at
Olonetz, 110 miles northeast of Petro-
grad, where the Firms have driven
out the. bolsheYiki. The town was
captured, according to reports, by
volunteer troops.
The capture Of Olonetz by forces
opposed to the bolsheviki may have
an important effect on the allied cam
paign along the Murmansk railway.
and through it on the situation in
the Archange1 region.
For several weeks allied forces.
commanded by Gen. Maynard. have
been pressing southwark along the
Murmansk railway, and were last re-
ported approaching Povienetz. at the
northern end Of Lake Omega From
Povienetz the Murmansk railway
swings westward. and before 1t
reaches the southern edge of Lake
Ladoga it comes within few miles
of Olonetz.
A Stockholm report Sunday said
that a revolt had broken out in Olon-
etz, and 1T Is possible that the boil
shevik force facing Gen. Maynard may
be cut off in the anti-bolshevikl ad-
vance from Olonetz. If the Muir
mansk railway line can be cleared as
far south as Olonetz, the allies will
be in a position to outf1ank the boil
sheviki south Of Archangel, who also are
threatened by the Siberian advance In
the Viatka region.

Vain Man-Hunt for Copeland
Followed by Strange Reports

Where is Herbert L. Copeland?'
Fallure OF the police to answer the
question as a result of the spectacular
man-hunt in the vicinity of Anacostia
Saturday night was followed by the re-
ceipt of information placing him at sew
eral distant points at the same time.
Older members Of the police force who
participated in the hunt Saturday night
did not have the slightest idea that
Copeland would be found, they stated.
Copeland did not escape from the Jail
as result of sudden impulse, they
stated. but as a result of careful PLAN
ming.
Following a clever scheme, with as
slstance from the outside. police be-
heve those who assisted him made all
the necessary arrangements to get him
away from the city or hide him and
do not believe he is going from place
to place seeking to keep out of the
clutches of the law
'If he left the city, said a policeman.
''he probably went in an automobile,
possibly one of the automobiles stolen
about the time he made the getaway.
and if this is the case he is under cover
at point far beyond the District
boundary"
One of the several persons to give in
formation about the reported where
abouts of the fugitive was Edward Rich
ards. 334 M street southwest, who gave
a colored man lift on the Washing
ton Baltimore boulevard Wednesday.
Richards said the colored man COM
planned of sore feet and asked if he
would not assist him to Baltimore in
his automobile. He took the stranger
as far as Baltimore and left him at
Fayette and Charles streets. Most Of
the policemen who heard the story think
it merely another case of mistaken
identity.
Maj. Pullman, superintendent of po-
lice this morning issued a circular con-
tanning an offer of a reward of 5000,
one-half to be paid by the police de-
partment and one-half by the superin-
tendent Of the jail, for the capture of
the fugitive. There is no stipulation
that he must be taken alive. such as
was the case with Isaiah Fountain, the
