Bag Holds Attention.
State police, led by Lieut.. Harry L.
McElroy, chief Of detectives, centered
their attention on a small black bag
found Thursday in the underbrush,
2 miles from the bodies.
This bag, holding women's and girls
apparel which corresponded to the
clothing worn by the children, as well
as mans shirt, trousers and under
garment. the troopers hoped would
lead to an Identification of the three
snub-nosed. freckled children.
McElroy. a veteran of many battling
crime mysteries, also watched the de-
velopments at Duncansville.
The woman wore red wooden skirt
but no jacket; the black bag found
near the children's bodies held a
white woolen jacket with red trim
ming. The jacket apparently would
have fitted the woman in the Altoona
tragedy. The mans apparel. officers
said, could have belonged to the man
in the case.
A tentative clue to the identity OF
the slain woman collapsed when in
vestigators found Mrs. Leona Forcy
nee Davis, alive and we'll at her home
in Lewistown.
Mr.. and Mrs. M. C. Oakes OF Al
toona. at whose home Mrs. Forcy
stayed recently. told authorities they
believed the body Of the woman found
at Duncansville might be that of Mrs
Forcy, but she was unable to shed any
light on the case.
State police said they are con-
vinced the bag, though found two days
before the bodies. is connected with
the death of the three children.
Had Gone Foodless.
Medical examination, 1t was dis
closed, indicated the children had
nothing to eat for possibly 18 hours
before they died. Some suggested
the children we're not dead when
they were laid. with apparent tender
ness, in their blankets In the hills.
These suggested the three might have
died from hunger and exposure
Tracing this theory, officers visited
tourist camps and hunting lodges
in the heart of the deer country,
not far from this old college town.
Only small lard can, containing a
rust-stained washcloth, was picked
up. 1t was pointed out the children
had been carefully washed Just be-
fore their death.

doctors, also we're scrutinized after
it was believed the mans shirt found
in the black bag was handled through

All day yesterday thousands milled
about the funeral parlors until per-
mitted to pass through the hall into
the death room. State police watched
every face intently for some show
of recognition. Few stopped for more
than a curious glance. though several
were questioned.

 Both policeman then pursued him on foot but the bandit was safe in the maze of backwards and all leyways between South Main and Union streets and could not be found. From the evidence of later witnesses, it is believed that he ran out on South Main street, across that thorougnfare, and tucked in- to another alleywey. across the Church of Our Lady of Lourdes.
 The alley into which he ran gives access to Meadow street and it is to this section that the hold up man apparently fled. Several DOllCcIlCn were IuSlltu lO tllul vicinity and combed in vain all the yards and passa geways both alorg South Main and Meadow streets.
