COUNTY BOARD DOES NOT FAVOR REWARD Though the county commissioners have not yet taken action toward offering a reward for the arrest of Joseph Snyder, the fugitive self-confessed murderei of William Henry Dayton, Prosecutor Reller will recommend
that the commissioners do so at their i
next regular meeting. Recently when asked as to what action they intended to take to assist in the apprehension of the man responsible for one of the most horrible crimes ever recorded in the criminal annals of Wayne county the commissioners said they did not believe they could stimulate interest by offering a reward. One of the commissioners said he was opposed to it as the plan had not been successful in other cases where it had been tried. In the murder of Mrs. Chris Allison of Cambridge City in 1910, a reward was offered by the authorities which would not have been necessary as the murderer would have

HE WASJECEIVED (National News Association) NEW YORK, Jan. 22 Col. Theodore Roosevelt, smiling and cheerful and wearing a greenish suit, was the first
witness called today when the hearing in the government's suit against the U. S. Steel corporation was resumed. A number of letters were introduced which had been exchanged between Col. Roosevc-lt, Attorney General Bonaparte and Roosevelt's secretary. The former president identified them all. One letter was from Bonaparte to Roosevelt, dated Nov. 14, 1907, and refered to a previous letter of the colon
el's in which he had referred to a visit paid him by Henry C. Frlck and Judge Gary of the steel corporation. The report of the bureau of corporations which had made an investigation of the oil trust and the steel corporation was also referred to. "Did the bureau of corporations report to you?" Roosevelt was asked. "Undoubtedly. I cannot remember as to how it reported concerning the Sherman law, but I recall that the report was favorable about the steel cor
poration and unfavorable about the Standard Oil company on certain points," he replied. The colonel reiterated his testimony before the Stanley Investigating committee that by sanctioning the sale of the Tennessee Coal & Iron company to the steel corporation In 1907 he saved the country from disaster. Judge Dickinson, counsel for the government, sought to draw out from Roosevelt the admission that the steel corporation and its allies hoodwinked him and so got his o. k. to the deal and that it had enriched the steel corporation

this nature had been going on at thf jail before Townsend was taken to Jeffersonville. He questioned some of the prisoiifrs yesterday and. although he could find out nothing definite, he was convinced that some attempt at jail delivery had been made. Buried in the loose earth in an air vent, two small saws, such as are ured to saw iron and metals were found. A careful examination of the iron bars in the vicinity of which Townsend and Sitloh slept revealed the fact that two bars were almost sawed. The air vents were then examined and it was found

PROGRESSIVES WILL HAVE CITY TICKET
At the meeting of the ways and means committee of the Wayne County Progressive organization, several matters relative to the establishment of permanent headquarters In the county and plans to put a ticket in the field to compete with other parties at the election next fall were outlined. County Chairman, Will Robbins, stated that the persons who attended the meeting were all in favor of the city ticket. Announcements will be issued by the chairman relative to the establishment of permanent headquarters in this county. "The rumors that the Progressives would unite with another party to defeat Mayor Zimmerman, who will make the race for mayor again, is without foundation," said Robbins. "We are strong here and the ticket we put out will win against the entire field. We can put up a good candidate. The voters want us to put a ticket into the field and we intend to do so."
