Youth Shouts Policemao Who Tries to Arrest Him. Lawrence, Kan;, Oct. 12.—Armed citizens are searching for Earl Bullock, an eighteen-year-old desperado, who looted the State bank at Eudora, and perhaps fatally wounded Policeman Wilson Pringle. Bullock was arrested by Deputy Sheriff E. Woods on a charge of robbing a store. Desiring to talk with Cashier E. E. Wilson, the deputy took the boy to the bank. While Woods and Wilson were talking Bullock drew two revolvers and ordered them to throw up their hands. Then he marched them into a vault and locked the door. He took SI,OOO and fled. Pringle traced the boy to his mother’s home. The policeman was shot when trying to arrest young Bullock.
