THE SUN, RUTHERFORDTON, N, C THURSDAY MORNING. AUGUST 22, J9J2. H1HTYRE ALLEGED SENDER OF MACHINE POLICE OF TWO STATE WORKING WITH HIGH POINT OFFICERS ON THE CASE. WAS TRACED TO ASHEVILLE The Developments Came With Rapid ity and Grave Charges Startled Work of Authorities. People Are Wrought Up Over The Affair. Raleigh. A special from Greens boro states that Police of two siates working under the direction of Chief of Police Ridge of High Point, joined in an effort to locate Ed R. lie Intyre, a well-to-do young man of High Point, who is wanted by Guilford cunty authorities upon a warrant charging the sending of an infernal machine to Miss Ollie Hoover, a pret ty and prominently connected ung woman of High Point. The development in the case came with a rapidity which vied in startling ness with the grave charges. Epito mised, the work developed the fact that the package while shipped through the Thomasville office, was sent by a High Point man rather than a Thomasville man that it was addressed to "Ollie Hoover" rather than to "Charlie Hoover" as waybill ed by the Thomasville express clerk. Then the admission of Chief Ridge that his men were seeking Ed R. Mclntyre as the sender of the pack age. In rapid order came the informa tion that during last fall Mclntyre's attention to Miss Hoover bad been rejected, that he had been warned not to further annoy her, that in turn he had warned her that he ''would blow her up with a machine which he had," that secret service men had been successful in an effort to estab lish authorship by Mclntyre of an anonymous and threatening letter di rected to Miss Hoover. Want Both Townships into Durham. There is a movement on foot among the people of Dutchville township of Granville county, to have that sec tion of Granville take into Durham county by the next Legislature. A number of the Creedmoor people, who were in Durham, said that so far as they knew every man In the whole township was in favor of coining into Durham county. They not only want the educational advantages offered by this county, and some of the benefits of a pretty good sized road fund, but they also claim that their tax r&te is so high in Granville that they wish to get into Durham. They say that the people of the city of Durham do not .pay a higher tax rate than they are charged by the county authorities of Granville. To Go Among Unsolved Mysteries. 'Numbering among the unsolved mysteries of Hendersonville is the rail road accident which occurred at Hen dersonville when under most unusual circumstances W. W. Lasever, of Con nelly Springs, and Ed. McLean, of Asheville, flagman and breakman of the Southern Railway Company, re spectively, were seriously, if not fa tally injured.

The alarm was quickly given at Asheville and several policemen were sent toward Biltmore on a special train. Other members of the force boarded train Xo. 35, which leaves Asheville at 10:50. It was thought that the robber might have attempt ed to escape on this train. At at last report the police and express officials were still without a clue. Destroy Large Illicit Still.
