Trail Proves Futile. Capt. C. P. M. Lord of the thirteenth precinct headed a police detail which ‘ was joined by the loyal home-town posse from Canandaigua and searched | the vicinity until late this morning, only to find that the woman seen by the two men appears to have been-one | of the nurses at the tern Star Home, The scene of the quest was suddenly | shifted when information was received that two colored women late yesterday | bad seen a woman resembling the de- | seription of Mrs. Forbush leaning against a tree in an apparently ex-| hausted condition. The searching party this afternoon was directed to the spot where the woman was seen and the dogs were put on the trail at that point. The posse from Canandaigua was Mmcreased today by the arrival of an- other automobile load of citizens, eager to aid the pastor in the search for his wife, ‘Who is the victim of an obsession which impels her to seek solitude. Efforts of the searchers are hampered by a tendency which she has manifested on her iwo previous disappearances, one eight years ago | and the other last month, to believe | herself to be pursued, making her | hide deeper in the underbrush as her | anxious friends draw near. | More Friends Coming. e which | ing after an automobile trip in which | they cut the train time by three hours are: Ben Hilliegas, Willlam Welch | and Guy Raines. They reported that angther contingent plans to leave for Washington today. Sheriff John Boles of County, N. Y., and Deputy Sheriff | Charles Bacon, who, with Rev. Mr. Forbush, have been engaged in the | search day and night, stated this afternoon that unless a positive clue| develops that indicates that the search is nearing successful conclusion, they will return to Canandaigua tomorrow, | feaving the new detachment of citi- zens to accompany the Rev. Mr. For-| bush in his efforts to locate his wife. | Another clue furnished by a res dent of Harrison street, Chevy Chase, proved futile when police questioned a woman who had been seen in that vicinity for the past two days and Ontario Jearned that she was a stranger in | the city who had been looking for em- ployment. | southeast | | ]‘ 2| | insistent HENRY HERRICK BOND.
