Two Captured After Escape
From State Prison
Tuesday Night.

Police today renewed search for
Matte Surface, who escaped from
the Indiana Women's Prison July 16,
and is alleged to have plotted the
escape of two other prisoners, cap
tured after a chase Tuesday night.
Investigation of the latest escape
is being made today by both police
and prison authorities,
Those who escaped and were cap
tured are Mrs. Ina King. 26, widow
of Terrence King, who was shot to
death last week at the Green Mill
barbecue, and Miss Clara Mathers,
30, of Gary. The latter was SEN
fenced to one year March "a, for
issuing a fraudulent check, and the
former a year for robbery.
Climb Wall
While other prisoners were eating,
about $50 p. m, Tuesday, the two
women went to the sewing room, re-
moved the bars with a screw
driver and escaped down the fire
escape. They then ran to the north
east corner of the grounds anu
scaled the wall.
A. M. Slaughter, Pennsylvania
railroad policeman, was in the
garage in the rear of his home, 4l0
N. Hamilton Ave, and saw the pair
fleeing. He started in pursuit and
called to neighbors to call police.
Slaughter captured the pair after a
short chase down an alley border
ing the prison grounds on the east,
near New York St.
Turned over to police, Mrs. King
! refused to talk, but Miss Mathers
said the escape was planned after
Mrs. King had found a letter of in
structions in the prison garden
written by Mrs. Surface. Today both
women denied Mrs. Surface was the
writer, but stuck to the letter story,
according to prison authorities. They
declared they didn't know the name
of the author, but it was a woman
who left the prison last week.
Convicted of Robbery
In the first story told police, Miss
NIathers said that Mrs. Surface was
to meet them with a car. Should
she fail, they were to go to the home
of Mrs. Stella Lewis, 1913 w. Pearl
St., released from the prison re-
Gently. Mrs. Lewis is being held for
questioning under high bond.
Mrs. King was convicted on the
robbery charge after Turing a man
into taxicab under the pretext of
getting liquor and then holding him
up. She had been held by police
before for questioning in connection
with the Union Trust Branch Bank
robbery in 1926.

Excess acid is the common cause

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Aug. 15.-"No
further attempts will be made to ar
bitrate the wage dispte between
trainmen and officials of the rail-
roads operating west of Chicago, .
A. F. Whitney, president of the
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen,
told the United Press today.
Whitney's statement was made as
$4,000 members of the trainmen's Or
ganization and the Order of Railway
Conductors were polling a strike
vote, the result of which will be an
nounced at trainmen headquarters
here on Sept. 2.
Arbitration Fails
The vote was ordered after the
railroads refused increases demand
ed by the brotherhoods, and the
brotherhoods, in turn, rejected con-
ditionaI increases offered by the
roads.
Five arbitration boards have sat
in conference in the dispute and the
fifth parley, like it's predecessors
collapsed in Chicago last week.
"When the strike vote is COM
plete, we will abide by the result" !"
Whitney said.
eff the trainmen vote to strike,
D strike will be ordered"
Whitney reluctantly discussed the
situation. He said he was not pre-
pared to state whether a partial or
general strike would be called, con-
tingent, of course, upon a favorable
vote.
The brotherhoods are asking in
creases of 10 per cent for yardmen
and 18 per cent for trainmen.
General Strike Possible
Railway officials consented to a
IL per cent increase, contingent
upon the abolition of certain work.
ing rules. These include rules re-
garding the use of more than one
locomotive on train and the num-
Der of cars which may be hauled
py locomotives.
A general strike would involve
10000 western trainmen.
"a general walk-out is possible"
6he said, but we might decide to
Z conf1ne the strike to those railroads
which have been particularly un-
friendly.
Whitney did not say what rail-
roads were considered "unfriendly."
The major system which would be
affected include the Atchison Tope-
ka ans Santa Fe, the Southern Pa
cific. the Unian Pacific, the Chicago
Burlington and Quincy, the Chicago
Rock Island and Pacific, the North
ern Pacific, the Illinois Central and
the Chicago Milwaukee and st.
Paul.
Canvass for Vote
With the exception of the Illinois
Central and the Chicago Milwaukee
and st, Paul, the railroads link the
west coast directly with Chicago.
Whitney said he could not tell,
at this time, what kind Of a tie-up
would result.
That is detail which we can
face only when we get to it," he
said.
Ninety committees have been
commissioned to take the vote"
Whitney said, THE members will
work from Chicago to the Pacific
coast.
There is nothing to say or pre-
dict until the result of the vote is
known and the situation is studied. !"

HOOVER SPEECH
But Most of 'InfluentiaI'
Leaders Are SiIent;>
Popular Stand.
BY PAUL r. MALLoN

PALO ALTO, Cal. Aug. 15.-The
mature reaction to Herbert Hoov-
er's acceptance speech as manifest
here led him and his advisers to be-
lieye today that he again has
reached out over the old-line party
leaders and again touched the rank
and file.
kilograms and letters which have
piled up his desk in the last four
days mostly have been from persons
of whom experienced Washington
newspaper correspondents have
never heard-from Republican busi-
ness men who never have been
prominent in politics, from women
identified from the So-called party
leaders.
Hoover and his friends believe the
reaction to his statement of party
principles has been popular rather
than partisan. They say that if he
has, he has attained the object of
his speech.
Only four of the forty-nine United
States Senators who are most often
regarded as State party leaders have
sent messages of\ congratulation.
They are Watson, Indiana; Wander
burg, Michigan; Deneen, Illinois,
and Curtis, Kansas. Three other
members of the party in the Senate
we're present here and issued state
mentS indorsing the speech. Not a
single Cabinet member wired COM
ment, although one was present and
extended his congratulations in
person.
Less than a dozen Republican
members of the House Of Repre-
sentatives add their words Of COM
mendation.
But the editorial comment from
both Republican apd independent
papers, added to the large number
of kilograms and letters which have
been received have convinced cam
paign advisors around Hoover'S
Office that the silence of few is to
be desired in view of the applause
of many.
1t is known the nominee left
much out of the speech that some
leaders had demanded and treated
his subjects independent of many
suggestions from the influential
This may explain some Of the in
fluential silence, Hoover's friends
say.
Motor Trip Called Of
President Coolidge took occasion
to comment upon the popular re-
ception of the speech in his tele-
gram of congratulation, received
Tuesday.
Arrangements were completed to-
day to enable the nominee to at
tend special Iowa picnic at Long
Beach, Cal.
The motor trip of the nominee to
Long Beach had been called off pre-
viously, but he was notified by long
distance phone from Los Angeles
that new picnic was being ar
ranged and that he would be ex-
pected to attend.
Both the Los Angeles and the
West Branch, Iowa, speeches nov
are concluded and advance copies
for newspapers are soon to be giver
out in confidential form.
