SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 19. (Spe
efal.) After every public and de
nominational school In six states and
three provinces of Canada had been
canvassed In a futile search to find
his 8-year-old kidnaped daughter,
C. P. Flynn of 1415 Eleventh avenue,
this city, with the aid of the prose
cuting attorney's office, was today
tracing a new clew.
The new clew leads to the law of
fice of E. V. Lundberg in Portland,
Or. Lundberg is said to have been
acting recently as attorney for Ed
ward Van Housen. a former insurance
man here, who is believed to know
the whereabouts of the missing girl.
Lillian was kidnaped May 15 last
from the Seattle Pacific college, where
she had been placed as a ward of the
court, following her parents divorce.
Mother Call for Child.
With the permission of Everett
Smith, judge, on that day. Mrs. Julia
flynn, the little girl's mother, went
to the college and took Lillian away,
promising to return with her Sunday
evening.
Neither have been located since,
though the father, a young man
grown prematurely gray with worry,
lias conducted an untiring search per
sonally and through the authorities
of many cities, states and provinces.
Mr. Van Housen was named as the
"other man" by Mr. Flynn during the
trial of the divorce. Judge Smith
awarded a decree to Mr. Flynn, but
doc-lined to give the little girl into the
custody of cither parent, indicating
that he might later allow the mother
, to have Lillian, if Mrs. Flynn aban
doned acquaintances who were al
leged to be leading her astray.
Two Seen Together.
Five days before the kidnaping Mr.
Flynn said he had learned Mr. Van
Housen and Mrs. Flynn went to the
Metropolitan Life Insurance com
pany's offices here and borrowed $50
on Lillian's insurance policy, though
at his trial for kidnaping Mr. Van
Housen denied having seen Mrs.
Flynn for six weeks prior to the
child's disappearance.
On the Sunday evening that Mrs.
Flynn was supposed to return the lit
tle girl to the college, Mr. Flynn says,
Mr. Van Housen went to Mrs. Flynn's
then vacant apartment at 1120 Terry
avenue and asked for 3V1 rs. Flynn's
trunks. The landlady refused to give
them upf it is said, until the rent was
paid. Later a woman took them
away, after paying the rent. Flynn
offered a reward for the apprehension
of Mrs. Flynn and Lillian and began
a thorough search. Shortly after
ward Mr. Van Housen is said to have
left the city and vanished.
Van Hounmi In Sought.
When Mr. Flynn says he discovered
that his ex-wife and Van Housen had
been living together in an apartment
at 324 Vine street for some time prior
to the divorce, he was convinced, he
says, that the man had gone to join
Mrs. Flynn and an attempt was made
to trace him.

of Washington, Idaho, Montana, Ne

LOGGING ACTIVITY SEEN
Timber Concern Rumored to Be
Behind Rail Construction.
GRAND ROXDE, Or., Oct. 19. (Spe
cial.) Some logging activity not
heretofore expected is reported on
the programme connected with the
construction of the railway from
Willamina to Grand Ronde. It is said
that the Spaulding Logging company
is one of the backers of this railroad,
and, with 35 sawmills located in va
rious parts of the timber country. It
would indicate that their interest In
the railway construction is more than
a passing one. It Is said that this
company already has large timber
holdings in Clatsop, Tillamook and
Yamhill counties, and that the re
newed activity in logging to the west
will begin upon the completion of the
road.
Humor also has it that 1500 men
will find employment before Jhe year
is out. It is certain that the work
of construction is being pushed as
rapidly as possible, and this fact
would indicate that some great in
centive is the cause.

Evans, according to the evidence
