the members of the Allen elan who nri
under Indictment for the Ulllsvlllo
murdens, announced an Increase of re?
wards In excess of that already offer Ml
by tho State, the additional rewards
being offered for Sidua Allen and Wes?
ley Kdwards. Tho offer was made on
the authority of Govtrnor William
1 lodges Mann.
The additional offer puts $1,600 on
the head of Sblna Allen, dead or alive,
and $1,000 is offered lor any Informa?
tion leading to his arrest or capture,
dead or alive. Seven hundred and fifty
dollars is placed on Wesley Edwards,
dead or alive, and tliu peraon furnish?
ing information leading to his arrest
will receive $i0?.
Mr. Baldwin said that he and his
partner. Mr. Felts, would placo tho
money in the First National Batik of
tialax before Saturday.
Sldna Allen and Wesley Edwards, tho
only members of the Alien clan at
large, have been at bay a llttlo ov?r
two months, but the State officers and
detectives In charge of the case are
determined that nothing shall b> left
undone that might in any way lead
to their arrest.
Last week a young man Riving his
I name as Jones was arrestod In Marl'ng
ton. W. Va.. the authorities there think?
ing he filled tho doacriptlon of Wesley
Kdwards. A Baldwin detective went to
West Virginia and saw tho prisoner.
"Jones" admitted that he had worked
In tho vicinity of tho Allen home. In
Carroll county, saying that he assi.-rte?
some of the relatives of the clan In
the illicit whiskey business, but hi
stoutly denied that he was Wesley Ed?
wards. A picture was made of the
man, and it closely resembles th > orig?
inal pictures of Kdwards which wire
sent out by tho detectives.
Mr. Baldwin Is unable io say posi?
tively whether the rnaji In the Marllng
ton jail is Edwards, but he thinks so
much of the clue that the man lfl being
held, and ths question of establishing
his Identity will be settled within a
few days.
