(Special In The Richmond Virginian.) I.vxnilinio. Oct. 27.—The Nel son county authorities are still com pletely baffled as to tne whereabouts of John Moore, the murderer who was rescued from the county Jail •art Friday night by a mob of moun taineers. They stated to-day that they believed that it was useless for a small number ol' men to ventur* into the section where Moore la be lieved to be kept in hiding for the reason that a wide search would hav< to be made at the same time and be cause of the danger attached to the undertaking. In the meantime they are waiting for the special term of the court to Im- ordered and a sum moning of a special grand jury for the purpose of indicting persons b. - iievod to have been in the rescuing party. it is not believed that it is I *1 ssible for Moore to escape from the "ection where he is hiding. Moore is strikingly marked. one eye is completely closed, the Ibis having grown together, and on on> arm the iigure of a woman is tattooed. The marks are well known to eve ry body In the county, and he would be instantly known should he try to board a train or escape through the open country. That a lirm of detectives of considerable reputation has offered to find Moore was indi cated to-day by one of the officials. It is understood that th. detectives require a cash reward for informa tion leading to arrests n< well as expenses. This the authorities can not offer them, as th»* rewards offered for members of the mob by the gov ernor and by the county are condi tioned solely upon arrest and eonvic tion. it is believed bowev* r. that the ftuo reward for Moore as well as the- f50 reward f,.r the lirst t.-n and $20 apiece f,,r others in the mob will attrac t the detectives.
