Indiana Officers were criticized
here today by Chief Deputy Sheriff
John w. Roberts for publishing re-.
ports that Mississippi Officers in
tended to arrest woman believed
to be Mrs. Belle Guinness Of tire
"murdcr farm" notoriety as being
responsible for her escaping cap

Roberts said Officers were pre-
pared TO capture the woman, known
as Mrs. j. b. Smith, last night and
that she escaped shortly before
they were ready to take her into
custody.
La Porte county sheriff Tom
Mcdonald had announced he was
willing TO come to Mississippi to
investigate reports that Mrs. Belle
Guinness, hunted since 1908 macon
nection with the Staying of II per-
sons on her La Porte county matri-
iaonial farm, was living in that
section of the country.
At the same time the sheriff said
he was inclined to delay definite
action until more substantial word
is forthcoming from the south to
give fair assurance that the report
