PLAY THE INSANITY DODGE. Martinez, April 25.—Ed Moore, the Nevadacounty murderer, is a pitiable subject as he cringes in his tank in the county jail. His skin hangs. on ‘his bones like parchment, for he has been skeletonized by his terrible experience of. the last three -weeks. The tinge of malaria is on his face and his eyes are sunken and bloodshot, ‘There is a twitching about the corners of his usually firm mouth, -and his whole bearing is that a man who feels his Jig is up. ‘He made a bold bluff last evening whe he said to Tom Davenport, his schoolmate and fellowmalitiaman in years gone by, “I don’t know you; I never saw you before.” But this morning when the officers from Nevada county walked in and accosted him as an old acquaintance he saw it was useless ‘to try and longer deny his identity. . “I know them all right,” he said to Sheriff Veale. And then when an attempt was made to draw him:into a conversation he sullenly shook his head ‘and turned his back. His appearance makes it plain that he has endured all sorts of hardships, not the least of which have been the pangs of hunger, He has plainly suffered a thousand deaths since he fled from his old home in'the vain hope that he could outwit justice and dodge the hangman’s noose. It is apparent from his actions sti that he'is already paving the way to go to the insane asylum instead of'to the scaffold. He sits watching the furthermost corner of his cell, blinking his peculiar quick eyes like an owl and entirely oblivious toeverything that is going on around him. He mutters: to himself at times in a broken way. He is either an _artist as a dissembler, or else he'is crazy as a loon. Those men here who know him well say he is shamming. Sheriff Veale will help the Nevada county offi-cers land him in the;jailat Nevada City. They will . get away today and reach there tomorrow, they say, but they are evidently trying to keep the time of their. departure quiet. Veale,will get $1,000.reward, or the $500 offered by the Supervisors of Nevada county, the $300. from the trustees of Nevada City — -.and.the $200 from the Nevada county Sheriff.

There are, or used to be, warehouses there for the storing of hay. The warehouses and little wharves are some distance from the railroad track, where the above mentioned waiting room is located.”’ An Assoviated Press dispatch from Martinez last night gives the following additional facts: Last night Moore came to the farm house of James Kennerly at McAvery six miles above here, and asked to sleep ander.a tree. He was asked why he did not sleep in the ralroad station and replied that he feared the officers might arrest him for a hobo. He was then told to. sleep in the barn. When Moore appeared he had blankets on his shoulder and a shotgin in his hand. After he had gone in the barn a neighbor by the name of Wilds came into Kennerly’s and the strange actions of the fellow was commented on. A paper was hunted up witha picture of Moore in it and the men were sure the stranger was the raurderer wanted. This morning Moore got up and looked out of the barn and threw his blankets. on his shoulder, picked up his shotgun, cocked the trigger, and. stepping out of the barn looked all around then started off at a brisk gait. Kennerly immediately drove to Black Diamond, a town six miles distant, and telephoned to Sheriff Veale of his suspicions. Veale took the 10:45 train for Stockton this morning and stationed himself at the door of the baggage car. At Bay Point Henry Borizagni, a young boy of Martinez, got off. Veal,’ looked up the track and saw a stranger coming. He got off and got inside of the small station. He called to Borizagni to come back and the two got inside and watched the advance of Moore through a knothole. Veale had a rifle in his band and when Moore got within forty yards of him stepped out and leveled the rifle at Moore and told him to throw up his hands. First Moore did not do so, as he was taken completely by surprise, but when the officer shouted “up with your hands THoetwit shoot, I am, an dfficet of the law,” Moore dropped his blankets and gun and obeyed the command. took an ear trumpet, a Smith & Wesson was then made to pick up the blankets At the jail he was searched and a gold watch with the monogram “J, M.” caps, powder and mauy other articles, inclading a diamond and two gold rings. . In Moore's blankets was discovered a &/ Colt’s revolver, of old pattern. This evening Moore sent a. message re-. to his father E. H. Moore, 666 Claremont .was.a relative of his and he wason ,his . . way to See him when arrested. The watch ‘carried by Moore was given to him by his late mother, Mra, Jennie Moore, before she died. Constable Dillon returned last evening from a search of several days for. ~~ ~~ murderer Moore around Alameda, Oontra Costa and other counties. He was on Thursday in the locality where Moore was caught yesterday. He started home sooner than he wanted to because he ran short of money. Before leaving here seven days ago Dillon had positive and exclusive information that Moore was heading for the Bay and was well on his way. It was this knowlege that sent him off, and subsequent developments prove that he was on the right track. It is the prevailing belief that when Moore tells the story of his wanderings, if his lips are ever unsealed, it will be found that the story told to the newspapers by the people who said they.saw him heading along the MoCourtney road below Grass Valley on the Monday and Tuesday after the killing, was true, The officers did not seem to attach much importance to it at the time; although one of the men— Taunt—bad been in jail’ with Moore, knew him iutimately and tolda straight and consistent tale. Moore’s dog was no doubt seen .by old Spanish Joe out ‘on Little Deer Creek, just as Joe said, having been given the slip by his master and wandered back to his old haunts. . The dog was seen last Weduesday and on several other occasions by George Murchie and other residents of that part of the township. He had been wandering around there for days. He was too wild to catch, and there was no desire to kill him lest a possible clue be destroyed. Sewerage Committee Tonight. The Board of Trade sewerage committee will meet at the courthouse tonight.

Veale had a rifle in his band and when Moore got within forty yards of him stepped out and leveled the rifle at Moore and told him to throw up his hands. First Moore did not do so, as he was taken completely by surprise, but when the officer shouted “up with your hands THoetwit shoot, I am, an dfficet of the law,” Moore dropped his blankets and gun and obeyed the command. took an ear trumpet, a Smith & Wesson was then made to pick up the blankets At the jail he was searched and a gold watch with the monogram “J, M.” caps, powder and mauy other articles, inclading a diamond and two gold rings. . In Moore's blankets was discovered a &/ Colt’s revolver, of old pattern. This evening Moore sent a. message re-. to his father E. H. Moore, 666 Claremont .was.a relative of his and he wason ,his . . way to See him when arrested. The watch ‘carried by Moore was given to him by his late mother, Mra, Jennie Moore, before she died. Constable Dillon returned last evening from a search of several days for. ~~ ~~ murderer Moore around Alameda, Oontra Costa and other counties. He was on Thursday in the locality where Moore was caught yesterday. He started home sooner than he wanted to because he ran short of money. Before leaving here seven days ago Dillon had positive and exclusive information that Moore was heading for the Bay and was well on his way. It was this knowlege that sent him off, and subsequent developments prove that he was on the right track. It is the prevailing belief that when Moore tells the story of his wanderings, if his lips are ever unsealed, it will be found that the story told to the newspapers by the people who said they.saw him heading along the MoCourtney road below Grass Valley on the Monday and Tuesday after the killing, was true, The officers did not seem to attach much importance to it at the time; although one of the men— Taunt—bad been in jail’ with Moore, knew him iutimately and tolda straight and consistent tale. Moore’s dog was no doubt seen .by old Spanish Joe out ‘on Little Deer Creek, just as Joe said, having been given the slip by his master and wandered back to his old haunts. . The dog was seen last Weduesday and on several other occasions by George Murchie and other residents of that part of the township. He had been wandering around there for days. He was too wild to catch, and there was no desire to kill him lest a possible clue be destroyed. Sewerage Committee Tonight. The Board of Trade sewerage committee will meet at the courthouse tonight.
