OFFICIALS SEEK
WOMAN WHOSE HOME
GARDNER ENTERED

MCNEIL ISLAND, Sept. 15.-A
special search was being conducted
here today to nnd the woman whose
home, according to belated reports
reaching Warden Thomas Maloney,
was entered last Friday by Roy
Dardner, who forced the woman to
feed him.
Gardner enforced silence on the
woman by threatening her with
death, It is said, but eventually the
story got out and reached the prison
authorities.
The general search is still going
on with nearly so armed men par
ticipating. Most of these men are
employing still hunting tactics. They
are scattered about through the
brush and remain quiet under cover,
waiting for the fugitive train robber
to. show himself, either in quest
for food or in an attempt to leave
the island.
The provisioned rowboat found on
the beach two days ago and at first
believed to have been placed there
by a confederate of Gardner, has
been Unidentified as belonging to
John Winter, property owner of
the island. The origin of several
mysterious shots has been cleared up
also. One was hunter shooting a
seal. The other were backfires from
the prison pumping engine.
Still sticking to his theory that
Gardner was fatally wounded while
he ran the gauntlet of bullets fired
by prison guards, DR.. Charles p.
Jento, prison physician, is conduct
ing, a persistent search for the con-
victs body in the brush near the
penitentiary.
The appearance here Of United
States Marshal j. B. HOlohan of San
Francisco, the man from whom Roy
Gardner escaped at Castle Rock last
June, occasioned considerable COM
ment. 1t was learned, however, that
his presence had nothing to do with
the man hunt. After conference
with Warden Maloney. Holohan said
he believed Gardner was still on the
island.

ing the death Of Virginia Rappe.
probably will be- at liberty on bail
by nightfall.
District Attorney Brady has Viz
tually decided to prosecute Arbdtkls
on charge OF granddaughter. ratker
than murder. This d : bailable
offense and Arbuckle's attor1eys are
ready to supply s15.0eo ban today.
II it IL accepted, Arbuckle viii start
for Los Angeles at once and 60 into
seclusion.
Brady's virtual decision to pro-
secute for granddaughter In believed
to have been influenced by the fact
that both the coroner's jury ana the
grand jury indicted Arbuckls for
that crime. refusing to accuse him Of
murder.
The grand jury Indictment was
to be presented to Judge shortall
today. If Brady dismisses the MUIR
der charge by that time Arbuckle's
lawyers will ask for bail immed-
lately.
Names Of manyswell known movie
actors and actresses are Hkeiysto be
brought into the casH when Roscoe
goes to trial on the charge' or assa ult-
ing and fatally injuring Miss Rape

acter.

This line Of investigation will also
bring into court testimony with re-
gard to wild parties" of the fast set
in the Los Angeles movie colony in
which Arbuckle Is alleged to have
participated. A complete expose Of
this night life is expected.
Federal prohibition officials today
were considering seizing Arbuckle's
$4,000 automobile on suspicion
that the liquor used at the fatal
party was transported from Los
Angeles to San Francisco in the
machine.
The San Francisco Women's vigi-
lance committee has appointed a
committee of IS prominent club
women to assist the district attorney
in prosecuting Arbuckle.
Miss Zey Pyvron and Miss Alice
Blake. who attended Arbuckle's
party and who are considered i'm
portant witnesses against him, are
under police surveillance today.

PESSIHISN NEVER BROUGHT

The Winslow mail., 1921-02-04

There seems to be a general i'm
preston broadcast that here has
been presented to the United States
Wage Board demand from the rail
road companies for a reduction ia
the schedule of wages now paid under
agreement to the abroad employees
in the transportation department. Ii
is evident that one of the reasons
for this demand is the poor showing
that he railroad companies have be4n
making in the way Of earnings. 1t is
possible that there may have been a
reduction in the cost of living in the
eastern portions of the United States
that would warrant a reduction. but
of this we do not know and have no
very convincing evidence that such
is the casa. We do know, however
that in this section of the country
the reduction OF the price of those
things which go to make up the ex-
pense of living, eatables and clothing,
rents, etc, have made no apprtciabl,
reduction and there are no reliable
prophesies being made that there
will be any great material reduction
in the price OF necessities
III this is condition, and it GER
ta1nly appears to b. one that is pre-
vaillng and existing here, then any
reduction in wages is certain to place
hardship upon the railroad employe
1t has been preached throughout the
nation that efficiency is the one thing
that will bring back to us as a paople
condition that might be comparable
to the conditions of the prewar
period, but the argument of efficiency
can hardly hold in tho case of the
transportation department of our
railroads, particularly of the Santa
f'e in Arizona and the Southwest
where the standard of efficiency has
been maintained at all times. Our
sympathies are with the employees
and the railroad companies alike in
the fact that whether the investment
is in labor or capital that its earn
ing capacity is abridged in any way.
The railroad companiest asked the
increase Of freight and passenger
rates and they were granted. They
were granted upon the plea and to
meet the condition of greater pay
rolls and the higher cost of living.
To decrease the payroll by reduction
of wages without a like reduction in
the cost of living is certainly not a
proper adjudication of the situation
as applicable to this section of the
county. The increase of transporta-
ticn rate has not served to decrease
living expenses, nor will it. Neither
"Ill reduction of wages in railroad
service unless transportation charges
ere likewise reduced. To increase
transportation charges and decrease
wages is not balancing the scales.
There will be some intensity in the
atmosphere until the wage board
have rendered a decision.
