J. W. HAMILTON. ! President Chamber of Commerce i of Roseburg, I Complaint Issued by Father-in-Law, Who Requests Court to Place Young Man Under Bonds to Keep the Peace Efforts to serve a warrant of ar rest on Edward Bland, late yesterday afternoon proved futile, and that In dividual succeeded In escaping from Constable Dillard, by dodging through several trains which were standiug in front of the station. Fred Pankonln. father in law of Bland, came from Sutherlln yesterday afternoon and procured a warrant for Bland's arrest. Mr. Pankonln filed a complaint in tho office of Justice of the Peace George Jones, stating that his son-in-law had made frequent threats against the lives of both Mr. and Mrs. Pankonln and that they were In constant fear of him. He re quested that Bland be put under bonrls to Keep the peace and that he be ar rested and brought Into court and held n custody until such bonds as might be required could be furnished. The warrant for Bland's arrest was placed In the hands of Constable Dil lard, who ascertained that Bland had learned of his fnther-lrt law's coming to Roseburg and was also in the city. The constable started a search tor hlin and succeeded in locating him near the depot Bland saw the offi cer coming and ran across the plat form and Into one of the coaches of a passenger train. Dillard followed on a run and the two dashed through the aisle vlth the constuble gaining at every atep. Al though orders were shouted to pas sengers ahead to block the way. no . one endeavored to assist the constable and Bland ran through three coaches. By that time Dillard was within ten feet of him and as Bland went Into a Pullman he slammed the door shut and locked It This forced tho officer to go back three car lengths and bv that time Bland had reached a train standing on an adjoining track and nnuhled back through that train. As he got off on the west side, on- . poslte the depot, he was seen by Charles Stark of Sutherlln. Bland. finding thnt he was detected ran down the tracks and succeeded In eluding the officers among the maze of tracks and cars. Bland, It Is alleged Is stll! threaten ing the lives of Mr. and Mrs. I'atikcu ln,' blaming them for the trouble be tween himself and his former w a'. lUriha Bland, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. l'ankonin.
