THE ViROlNiA OUTLAW FOKFEiT BOND ducementto aid in the capture oj the deperado is due not only the state of Virginia but to tm United States.” Judge Boyd saio that he would give his personal endorsement to such a petitior and he expressed the belief that the request would be granted by Attorney General Wickersham, In his able charge previously Jud ge ^yd had made pertinent com ments upon the crime of the Al len gang. BURLINGTON OFFICIALS Greensboro, June. 3- "Sidna Allen,” called District Attorney A. E. Holton yesterday immed iately after United States court had convened for the afternoon session and while the district at torney was going over the long docket of cases set for the pre sent term. There was a bit of a twinkle in the sharp eyes of the district attorney as he called the name and the silence which fol- Jowed was almost oppressive. Every ear had been pricked for the call and every ear, once the call was made, was set that the owner might not escape no detail of a proceedings in which the now famous Virginia outlaw was a principal. ‘ ‘Sidna Alien, ” again called the district attorney, and again there was no response. It was evident that Sidna was not about and im mediately the large audience gat hered inside the courtroom breat hed easier. Clerk Mlllikan for mally attested the forfeiture of the bond of $6,000 under which Allen was held to appear here in answer to an mdictment for per jury and Judge Boyd ordered a capias instanter to be issued for the defendant. The court stated however, that bethought the of ficer in whose hands the paper was placed would be justified in marking the capias “not to be found” without effort to locate Allen. Speaking from'-the bench- Judge. Boyd instructed District Attorn ey Holton to frame a request to the attorney general that the ' bond money of $5,000 be added to the reward for Allen’s arrest for the Virginia courts. “I feel he said, “that the offer of this in- EltOK RUNS AWAY Win FATAL lEStT Raleigh, June 3.-Released when a negro fireman carelessly moved the throttle, a Seaboard locomotive left its moorings at Johnson street station early to day and, gaining speed as at went, crashed headon into Sea- bo^d passenger train No.^ ^ ei^ht miles north of the city, killing engineer W.

Hazie Thomas, the negro fireman, jumped and saved his life. The dead engineer is a native of Virginia and his wife and two children live near Roanoke. He sto^ by his throttle until he could do no more, but jumped too late to escape death. Fire man Thomas was slightly injured and was found lying beside his dead engineer groaning as much from grief as from his injuries. Oveniiaii and SiinnioDs Mtun On Presidential Contest. Washington, June 3.—Senators Overman and Simmons, on being asked to express a preference for the Democratic nomination at Baltimore, tonight positively declined to do so. “I have taken no part in the presidential campaign and will not,” said Mr. Simmons. “I think the Baltimore convention will give us the best man. I think the delegation from North Carolina should go uninstructed so that the delegates will be free to act” ‘ ‘While I have personal pref erence,” said Mr. Overman, “I have expressed no choice. I have advocated no man. I think the delegates should go uninstructed. You can’t tell what the future may develop. Much depends on what takes place at Chicago. I regret very much that I will not be able to go to the State con vention, but my duties here are pressing me greatly. If there had been a primary in North Carolina I would have thought differently about the matter of instructions.” Neither Senator Simmons nor Senator Overman will De at the State convention, most of the members of the House will be there, however.
