BLAWD GIVES UP TO ARMED POSSE Search for Food Leads Radical's Discovery. to SUSPECT HELD IN JAIL bureau following- a dive from the Morrison street bridge into the river Monday night. The girl apparently had suffered ai fit of melancholia and had decided to I commit suicide. Mrs. F. C. Cheeber. mother of the girl, admitted she had said something to her daughter that morning about trying to obtain a position, and the girl had told her she would rather jump off a high bridge than ask for job, according to members of the pro tective bureau. The girl was declared to have been suffering from timidity and loneliness and that is believod to have caused her to wish to end it all. She was apparently in better spirits t yesterday and none the worse for her experience or tne tiigni oeiore. SHOT FUSILADE IS Centralia Joyful Over Man Wanted for Armistice Day Murders. Capture Part in of (Continued From Firat Fage. Shots were . exchanged, the fugitive dodging his way down a line of tele phone posts. The firing brought Charles Hill, a nearby resident into the street with a weapon ready. Both Hiil and Jaaska exchanged a number of shots with Bland, but the wearied, half-starved radical made his escape good. Though neither Hill nor Jaaska knew Bland they found on the floor of the store a dental receipt, evident ly dropped from his pocket when h drew his revolver. The receipt was made out to Bert Bland from the of fice of a Centralia dentist. Hunted Man Gets Meal. At 4:30 this afternoon Bland made his way to the home of Curley Mills, known to him as a farmer fellow woodsman in various logging camps. The mills house is on the outskirts of Rochester, a few miles north of Hel sinar Junction. Bland en tered the residence and demanded food. A meal was served him, which he ate with ravenous haste. At its conclusion the fugitive left the house and continued his flight. Independence, near the shack where Bland was taken, is in the south western corner of Thurston county. exactly on the western boundary of the county and about two miles due west of Helsing Junction. The chase had wearied the fleeing murder sua pect and known I. V. W. plotter to such an extent that he could fare no farther. "With the certainty that he had been recognized at Rochester and Helsing Junction, the fugitive seemed to have abandoned all hope of escape and determined to await the searchers who would eventually drag him out. Capture Highly Important. "With the capture of Bland the nt"ftKpiitfnn fTn(r(t a floor! it f licrhf t n , r --c ibe turned upon two or three complexl t- . , . Mies or me armistice aay muraers. ccording to the testimony of eyewit ncsses who were in the parade. Bland was one of the radicals who was ata t ioned in the Aval on hotel, opposite the I. w. W. headquarters. When the enraged paraders brok ranks in the rush to wreak vengeance upon the slayers of their comrade witnesses say that they saw him flee, But the confession of Lauren Rob erts, one of the I. W. W. now in custody on the charge of murder, who gave himself up to the, law two days after the attack, has caused the au thorities to believe that Bland was one of the I. W. W. who were sta tioned on Seminary hill and who fired from that vantage point into the stream of paraders at long rifle range. Roberts confession gave the descrip tion of a radica.1 rifLeman unknown to him, but answering to Bland's de scription, who worked a high -power rifle at his elbow on the crest, of the hill. . f. Crime May Be Cleared. The question of. Bland's chare in the quadruple crime will now be made ciear. it is felt certain. If he was stationed in the Avalon hotel, as other witnesses assert, his were the shots, it is alleged, which struck down War ren Grimm, at the head of his platoon. After the confession of Roberts the authorities began search for Bland and two other fugitives, one of them named Ole Hansen, in the heavily timbered mountain country northeast of here, at the headwaters of the Han naford river, for it was there that Roberts said the three hillside mur derers had taken refuge, supposedly in one of the several cabins scattered throughout the district. According to Prosecuting Attorney Allen, the only statement that Bland has made refutes the opinion that the fugitives have been hiding in that locality. Bland said that they had been hiding in the timber near Inde pendence, southwestern Thurston county, and that his companion was Ole Hanson. He remained with Han- eon until Sunday night, the ..prisoner Raid, when his companion left him and .struck forth in the direction of Cen tralia. Posses in the mountainous region, where I. "W. W. fugitives are still be lieved to be in hiding, have been to a large extent withdrawn, according to Lieutenant Frank van Oliver, com mandant of military police and a vol unteer posse. Search la Continued. But the search for the two orthree radicals yet at large and who have been named by the state as partici pants in tne Killing oi lour ex-service men. has not been abandoned. Rather it will be concentrated with a smaller number of men in the field in order that accidental shooting of posse members, such as the fate that over took John Haney, volunteer, from the Tenir.o district, may not happen again. "We have no reason to alter our be lief that at least two or three suspects are yet In hiding in the wild country northeast of here, near the headwaters of the Skookumehuck and Hannaford rivers," said Lieutenant Van Gilder tonight. 'But we are changing our plan of campaign. The Centralia posse out there now numbers but 15 men, with the exception of the guards posted at the trails. "What would you think. emlled Lieutenant Van Gilder, "if I were to say that one man, the finest shot and keenest woodsman in the country, is going in there alone with orders to bring them out "Well, he is. But his name is not given out just now for obvious reasons.1' LEWIS BREEDERS COMBINE , TL. Bevington President of Xov County Association. CHEHALIS, Wash., Nov. 18. (Spe cial.) V. L. Bevineton of R.

Whether "Whisky or Radicalism Is Cause of Promiscuous. Firing Is Puzzling Authorities. BY BEX HUR LAMPMAX. CENTRALIA, Wash., Nov. 18. (Spe cial.) Whether squirrel whisky or red radicalism caused a mysterious and promiscuous tarsret oractice on Rock street late last night is puzzling local authorities, who have verified the account that two men in a large touring car went north at a pelting pace, one of them advertising the de parture by emptying a revolver into the street. The license number of the car was not obtained, largely be cause folks in that vicinity were con cerned with other matters when the gunmen opened fire. H. M. Whitford, driver of a deliv ery auto, was emerging from a resi dence to crank his car, when the big auto went spinning past. Even as it flashed by him a bullet tossed the dirt up at his feet. Whitford dug it out a minute later a 32-caliber revolver pellet. Car I Headed North. a young guy in a light suit was at the side of the driver," recounted Whitford. "He had the door open and one foot on the running board, those are all the details I took in, because he also had a busy gun and he was blazing away. I am sure that he shot at me. The car went north." Dr. David Livingstone, county cor oner, was also driving up Kock street and witnessed the reckless and un accountable display of marksman ship. Another car, according to Dr. Livingstone, was sjightly ahead of the auto in which the gunman rode. The coroner is inclined to think that the shots were directed at the tires of his machine. Authorities have been unable to assign a motive to the incident or to discover who were the occupants of the car. Informations were filed yesterday afternoon by Prosecuting Attorney Allen and Assistant Prosecutor Cun ningham at Chehalis in the superior court of Lewis county, naming 13 men as responsible for the murder of War ren O. Grimm, victim of the Armistice day attack. These informations were supplementary to the justice cour complaints filed and name three ad ditional alleged participants and con spirators.
