P.) —A woman was sought today for the first time in connection with the kid- naping and death of Robert Franks, 14-year-old son of a millionaire man- ufacturer, This and an automobile license were all the police let become known of their plans to solve the mystery. A police guard was hurriedly thrown about the home of Jacob Franks, father of the slain victim of kidnapers after new threats of violence had been reported to states attorney Robert E. Crowe, by mem- bers of the family. Anonymous telephone calls to the Franks’ residence, the father report- ed to the states attorney, warned of further outrages if the hunt for the slayers continued. Chief of police Collins and Chief of Detectives Hughes, after a pro- tracted conference this afternoon, is- sued a joint statement predicting “pointed developments” in the baff- ling and tragic mystery. Still Debate Cause. The cause of death was not termined definitely last night after 24 hours of investiga police admitted the crime one the most baffling in the city’s his- tory. Detectives were hunting the answers to a score of questions while a coroner's inquest, was continued indefinitely because of lack of infor- mation. The place where de- and the youth died had not been found but the police| believe it far from th on the south sife where was fomnd stuffed into a Qne of the lad’s stockings was found near his i.vdy, but none of his other clothing has been found. Coroner's assistants believed poison was the actual cause of death and anxiously awaited the results of a chemical analysis tonight to definitely deter- mine their theory. They said the blows on the he which the suffered had not Kidnaping for ransom or some un. explained motive alternated in the minds of the police who Were disin- clined to believe that the boy had been abducted for ransom alone af- ter doctors expressed the befief that he had been killed within four hours after he disappenred Wednesday while on his way from a private school to his home, three blocks di tant. One instructor of the fashion- able private school attended by the youth was under surveillance tonight and two others and the principal were questioned today. Ll Seek Grey Car A grey car which loitered near the school the day the boy disappeared and in which he is believéd to have been carried away has not been found and automobile tracks near the cul- vert where the body was found are undeveloped clues, The pair of spec- tacles found near the body and at first believed the property of the boy, presented a peculiar angle. They are horn rimmed, narrow of width, made for a person of narrow head but large nose, near sighted, police de- clared. Finding of the owner of the spectacles will go far toward solving the mystery, authorities believe. The construction of a special de- livery letter, received at the Franks home yesterday morning.a few hours after a telephone call had informed the family the boy was kidnaped and at about the same time the body was found, offered one of the most tang- ible clues. The writer has not been } traced but the missive was one such as a well educated person would compose and was written on a small folding typewriter, according to a typewriter expert. The missive, de- manding payment of $10,000 ransom money, was followed a few hours later by a telephone call to the effect that a taxicab was being sent to jcarry Mr. Franks to the kidnapers. The father, Jacob Franks, . wealthy watch manufacturer was waiting with the money but refused to ac- company the taxi driver when the latter said he did not know where to go with his fare. ra SHOT IN AMBUSH Benton, Tenn., May 24:—Harvey Rymer, 55, well known farmer of Polk county was shot to death from ambush last night, supposedly by moonshiners of the region. Deputy sheriffs had -raided a still near Ry- mer’s place Tuesday and it is pre- sumed that the operators believed him responsible for tipping the depu ties off. DICKINSON WOMAN DIES Dickinson, N.
