Whether or not Lincoln lslted the newspaper office on Wednesday nlKht, United States Marsha! James M. Power's investigation of tho escape Is being dragged out In the hopo that somo such display of Impudent daring will betray tho fugitive within tho next day or two, Mr. France did take one action yes terday, however, looking toward crim inal action after reading the report of Lincoln's visit to the newspaper office He held that whoever permitted him to come and go was an accessory after i the fact and so lepoited to the United States Attorney In Manhattan. As a result tho alleged visit Is to be Investi gated. Lincoln's latest statement follows: "Jokes aside, my escapo Is a serious matter, and there Is more behind this statement than anybody can Imagine. "I have tonight addressed a note to Captain Offley's olllcc. making a llniil appeal not to net ns subservient tools of the British Government against me. I will see what they will do. "If leason, fair play and. Justice pre vail at Washington, I will Hiiricndcr of my own free will. Washington knows what I mean. Hut If not, then I will dis close tho full story of my case and lllght to the American people ttitough your columns. "The crux of tho whole situation Is that Great tlrltuin is directing tho secret ser vice of this country ns It apparently Is directing other depattments as well. Hut whatever happens, I will certainly not tolerate that cither L'nlted States Mar shal Power or United States Deputy Mar shal Johnson or antody else he mnde a scapegoat for the Inexcusable blunder of people 'higher up' In Washington "Many peoplo will consider It pip'utnn tuous for an Individual thus to speak. Wli5.? Meanwhile, I lequest Deputy Mar shal Johnson not to participate In tho bunt? He can see from my statement, published In your columns this motnlns. that I wunt to save him "I am not nfrnid of him, nevertheless, If ho will not Immediately drop out of this childish hunt of a so-called secret service, I will consider It ns n deliberately unfriendly act und speak out. "I refuse to bu hunted, bullied and calumnled by nn nslnlne British Govern ment. It Is my Innate right tn light asalntt it with every means nvallable just as one Government lights another. "The iioxt step rests with tho United States Government." Yours very truly, " I. T. T. LINCOLN.
