TWO STATES SEEK LOCKE Indianapolis Police Have Forwarded His Description Over Entire Country.

Locke was the leader of a gang of freight car robber3 that operated all ' over the Big Four system, and his evidence is needed at many points where indictments have been returned by grand juries. The robberies extended over a period of several years. Locke and Harry Harris, another member of the gang, escaped from Locke's home In Hagerstown when the place was surrounded by a sheriff's posse about a year ago. Besides the robberies, Locke was suspected of blowing safes, stealing hogs and various other crimes. He and Harris made their way to San Francisco, where they were found a few weeks ago by L. P. Grady, a special agent of the Big Four, who lives in Keystone avenue. They were brought back to Wayne county by Grady and Superintendent Bailey, of the Richmond police. A few nights ago Locke escaped from jail. The Indianapolis police recently took the Bertillon pictures and measurements of Locke and copies are being sent over the country. By means of the information obtained from Locke and Harris, the Big Four detectives were enabled to jet Jiree indictments against trainmen before the grand jury at Charleston, Coles ;ounty. 111. More than a score were said to be Implicated in the thefts, and other indictments are expected to follow. The Coles county gang alone is said to have stolen more than $15,000 worth of goods. Other divisions of the Big Four are receiving the attention of detectives. The plan of the different gangs was to exchange stolen goods at the terminals and dispose of them in other cities.
