 Private Detective Sues
 The damage suit was filed by Mrs. Pearl Antibus, @ private detective. She alleged that the elder Warner, ided by men from Fitts office, forced their way into her home and carried away the struggling scion of the Stewart Warner millions. She re- ceived physical injuries, she charged.
 Young Warmers first wife, Vir- ginia Insett Warner, will obtain her final decree in October. She now gets $250 e month aliinony. Mrs. Macdonald is expected to get her final decree about the same time. The gay young man, who, for trans portation, owns Q $20,000 airplane, $i7000 Duesenberg automobile, 6 $i7,000 yatcht, and an $8,000 speed boat, could not be reached immedi- ately for comment. Williams said that the alder Warner went to Fits in June with @ story that his son was under the influence of some- one.
 Love Captive
 "He said he thought he was a love captive" Williams said, "and explained that when he first ob- jected to his sons newest romance the young man hired Mrs. Antibus to investigate Mrs. Mcdonald. He said the detective reported that Mrs Mrs. Mcdonald was true blue but that his son was determined 10 20 away. He sailed for South America" Williams cotnniued, but before he left his dad said he told him that when he came back he wanted him to see that he didn't get in with those people again. The South American trip was short and the boy dropped out of sight The father hired detectives who located him at Mrs. AntibuS' home"
 Then Came Raid
 Williams said the invasion of the minor fights. First Mrs. Antibus de. nied Warner was there, then admit ted he was upstairs. Mrs. Antibus' suit alleges she was tossed over the furniture, that her granddaughter was frightened into mysteries and that a guest was prodded in the stomach with a gun.
 Patient in Hospital
 Mrs. Antibus was a patient in Will shire hospital today, reportedly suf- fering from concussion of the brain.
 The woman detectives lawyer, Ed- gar L. Martin, offered an explana- ton concerning reports that young Warner had turned over large sums of money to Mrs. Antibus and Mrs. Mcdonald while in the Antibus house.
 "The young man." he said, had several large checks, one think foi se,500, another for $l,000. lie was unable to get them cashed himself. The women offered to accommodate him by getting the cheeks honored at their banks.
 "The money was deposited in a bank account to which only young Warner had access. It was the boys own bank account. Nobody else could draw from It."

Posses raced northward along the main highways, but without success. Anxi- ety for Markham was becoming acute, when he reported himself free and safe.
 Markham said the convicts drove slowly and carefully and along the principal roads. They didn't rob him of his money.
 The convictS were three of the nine mne who broke from the Eastman farm near Weldon. A Posse pursued them on the same day, caught up with them and killed J, D. Reid, one of their num- Der. Soon afterward four more were retaker1.
 Fled In Stolen Car
 Traxler, Tindol, Chapman, and Walter Blanton, fled northward in . stolen car. Blanton separated and went his way. Wanting the car of J. 0. Dunlap, 37, they engaged him in a gut battle, wounded him in the hand, and fled in his car, taking him along as a hostage. Later they held up Harry Domain, constable at Trinity, Tex, and took his car. Still later they stole car from Texas state highway police.
 Then, yesterday, they stole an- other car at a resort near Allen okla, which they were driving wher, they met Markham.
 Taxler's record includes gun fights with police, and two escapes from the jail at Pauls Valley, Okla, while awaiting trial on murder charges.

 "It's time for the people of the United States to take government in their own hands. If some of you don't like the way the cofis mittee has handled this, ask to be relieved from duty oh the commit tee"
 There were shouts of No, no" and "Stay on the committee"
