POSSES TRAILING BANDITS WHO FLED FROM GUARDS Mail Robbers Who Transferred Shackles to Captors Believed Lying Low.

Pyron, | federal prisoners who escaped from a train at Castle Itock, W iday, after transferring s hemselves to two federal officers in whose custody they were being taken ito MeNeil Isiand. penitentiary. The man hunt was carried on throughout the day in the rough, tim- { bered country east and south of Castle Rock, following the discovery of foot- prints which were believed to have been left by the fugitives.' Officers declared they believed the two men both experienced in evading officers of the law, had concealed themselves dur- jing the day and would make a break to get out of the region tonight. Gardner, according to reports, held the pistol over the deputy marshals while Pyron transferred ‘Oregon jboots” and handcuffs to the officers, and relieved them of about $220. When the train stopped at Castle Rock both men jumped off and escaped in the darkness. Gardner is under two sentences of twenty-five years each for mail rob- ‘beries in California. Under the first sentence he was en route to McNeil Isiand prison June 7, 1920, when he escaped at Portland, with another prisoner.

MURDER VICTIM BURIED. Woman at Staunton Dies Hynnrl- | ously—Another Slaying Alleged. | | Specinl Dispatch to The Star. I | STAUNTON. Va., June 11.—The body of Miss Mary C. Collins, whose imysterfous death in Charlottesville a lday or two ago caused authoritles lto pronounce it murder, was barled 'in Thornrose cemetery, this city. Services were also held at an under- taking establishment in Charlottes- ville. Details from Charloftesvilie are to the effect that Miss Collins- was ifound dead in her hcme Monday night by her brother-in-law. Indi- cations of suicide or foul play were evident at once. Her face was badly burned with chloToform. Robbery is believed to have been the motive, as the woman, who lived alone, was known to have considerable money.| Her dlamonds are missing. Curlously enough, reports came to Staunton yesterday regarding another alleged murder at or near Charlottes. ville. According to reports three un- known men had killed a man there and escaped with his automobile, a large green Buick car, said to be car- rying first a Virginia and then a Florida license. It is congidered that the same trio is responsible for both murders. HISTORIC MIRROR PLACED Relic Put in George Washington’s Headquarters Cabin. Special Dispatéh {5 The Star.
