The chief evidence against the
youngsters, it is now shown, was
provided by bloodhounds. The dogs,
used by the local police of Weirton,
took up a scent at the point of the al
legged robbery and tracked it through
the woods to a settlement of steel
workers. There the police gathered
up the ten boys and, on what now is
said to be purely circumstantial evil
dence, all were found guilty.
The Attorney Generals investiga-
tion showed the three youngsters,
along with the seven other alleged
"desperadoes," as they were called by
the District Attorney, were put
through the third degree and police
officers at Weirton wrung confession
of guilt from them. The boys later
denied their guilt and so pleaded, but
apparently were victims of police
prejudice. In locality where the
steel workers are under the lash Of
police authorities.
Warren Martin, assistant to the At
torney General, visited the lads, in
vestigating the facts and declared
steps were being taken to return the
boys to their parents. They probably
will be pardoned by the President.
