Hoping to ; save her husband from the fallows or Imprisonment for life, "Maude Keller "v Fcpoon win take up ft woHd-wlde search . for . Hay Wilcox, the paroled convict, who disappeared the day after the mur der of Edith Pepoon, and who Is named as co-aerenaani in me imormauon niea against George I. Pepoon, charging him . witlx -murder i In tho . first degree, .Will Hire Detective. Almost giving up hope of freeing her husband without the assistance of WJ1- . cox, the artist wife of the' defendant . says, she will enlist the services of the most competent detectives In the eoun- ! try in search for the missing convict Her search adds. a. new feature to the strange drama In which sh Is the one most Interesting figure. Several weeks - before Edt'th Pepoon's murder, she pa- rolled. Wilcox, who was- graduated a pharmacist, .from the penitentiary at Walla. , Walla, to- work on her cattle ranch. According to the state, a plot was hatched when she released the for- mer ' druggist and ; morphine fiend to ; work for George L, Pepoon three weeks : before the murder "of Edith Pepoon. 'Wilcox, according to the evidence, ''was placed in charge of the Insane wife of . Pepoon and Is alleged by the state to have been the moving spirit In the con spiracy to kill the woman, , Wtlcnn roys- . teriously disappeared after cashing a check drawn in his favor by Pepoon for $100 the day before the funeral. Pe- poon, n the witness stand, admitted he v owed Wilcox only 110. Despite the fact ; that Governor M. E. Hay of Washington offered' $500 reward for the capture of Wilcox, the. convict has not been found. - Thinks Wileox Zi Murderer. ' -I ' believe Wilcox killed Edith Pe poon," said Maude Keller-Pepoon, "and 4 If he can be found, I am certain my husband wiirbe cleared." Maud KeHer-Pepoon, to whose ' di vorce proceedings, filed the day after Edith Pepoon's' funeral, George Pepoon was the only wftness, married the ac. Reused murderer within 90 days after the murder and before the statutory time after the. divorce had elapsed. They , were married at Koseland, ,B. ' -V . WHAT BALLINGER CASE '. HAS COST UNCLE SAM '7 V 'United Vnmt hnuet Wire.) ' ' ' 'Washington, May 21.The Ballingur - investigation has ; cost the government at least $32,600 for printing, payment of stenographers," mileage for witnesses ; and ; like , expenses." Chairman Nelson estimated' today that miscellaneous ex penses would amount to $15,000 ad ditional and that the cost of printing about 7000 pages of testimony would be $17,600 more. ,. . , .. , The Investigation is unique In the t history of the country from the fact that both "prosecution" : and "defense," with the exception' of the '"attorneys' fees, are financed by the government The cost of , legal talent however, ; Is borne by those Involved In the Inquiry, who found It necessary' to be repre sented by attorneys at the hearings of V the Investigating committee. ' Another . feature: of the investigation Is that the government, in addition to bearing the brunt of the cost, is throw ing its archives open to-inspection of attorneys acting for men who are now out of official life. The cost of bringing witnesses to Washington alone was large. A num - ber of the witnesses ...came from Seattle : and others from as far as Alaska - and Porto Rico. ' ., . Besides spending money, the govern ment gave a great deal of the time of Its officials and employes to the inves ; tigation. While the senators and repre sentatives on the Invsetigatlng commit tee were able to attend to their other duties in congress, many officials of the government were taken from their tasks to testify before the committee. .(Wasblnston Bureia of Th Journal.)
