ae RUSSELL HELD /BAREFOOT, THEY AS A CAPTIVE, | MARCH AND PRAY SAYS HIS WIFE ing Man, She Deolares, Has Been Spirited Away for Some Strange Busineas Reason and Is Detained by “a Certain Man in New York.” WILL NOT TELL NAME OF |. THE MAN SHE SUSPECTS. Announces that She Means to Run Him Down with De- teotives and Then Prefer Se- rious Charges—Says Police Are Doing Nothing. Mra. Joohn L. Russel, wife of the Missing wecretary and ¢reasurer and largest stockholder of the Journeay & Burnham Company, of Brooklyn, (le- Glared to-day that she had personally discovered a clew that convinces her that her husband has been made a privoner by a certain prominent New York business man who has some se- ret motive for keeping Russell out of the way. Though Mrs. Russell has employed five private detectives to ald her tn her search for her husband, she could not wait for results from their efforts and yesterday began to run down every trail that offered She heard from a friend that Russell had been seen pur- chasing a ticket for Boston last Friday, the day he was last seen. -At first she thought he might have gone to Bristol, Mass.; where ‘he has relatives. “I made every preparation to go to Boston," said Mry. Russell to ‘an Evén- ing World reporter to-day, “but just as I was about to start I had what I might eall a woman's intuition that I could ge news of him in’New York. . She Got a prise. ‘{ started at once for the ea prominent New York business whom my husband had long Inti- mately associated. I also knew this man very well and believed that he would assist me in my search, “Judge, therefore, my surprise, when after pressing him for some hint that might lead me to my husband he turned on me with: ‘Why don't You keep quiet and stop all this noise? If you will give up this newspaper, ¢alk Mr, Russell will come home.’ “As soon! as I could recover my com- Posure after this startling statement I Con; crows-examined this man until he finaily owned up that he had seen Mr, Ruasell on Friday afternoon and talked with him. He said that my husband came tw his office shortly after lunchean' time. He said he was nervous ayd excited and told him that he (Mr. Russell) was golng to Trenton. Further than that I could not get a word out of him, “But I have consulted a lawyer and Wlil take steps to make this man tell all he knows about my husband's where- bouts. Upon the tdvice of the lawyer I will not disclose his name at the pres- eut Ume, but if some results are not swon forthcoming, charges of a sensa- Honal. kind may be looked for, He Has Plenty of Money. “When this man told me, that Mr, Russell was nervous and excited my first thought was that he might have become a bankrupt and had’ obliterated himself rather than face the Thereupon I went around to ev. fis, trust company Where Mr. pt an account and-repeated| my quiries. I gat ntold. i m= "4 that his jinan- Cial footing Was as sre as it ever was, and that generous balances stood to his account in every institution. Mr. Rua- Sell had $900 with him when he left Brooklyn. 1 thought that If he had becn Javolved in any trouble he would have drawn out more money, but I have Iearned that not a single ck sok-of his has come In to any of hig & nks. “L fully believe sthat Wis one man fenowa What has become of. him, and 4 some strong motive for cealing his whereabouts from me. 1 believe’ that my husband has been spir- ited Away for ‘business reasons, and fe now held a prisoner, “T have tve private detectives and a lawyer now working.oa the case, and, with my personal ‘efforts added—1 not count the police of Brooklyn they only look wise and grunt—some results should be obtained In 9 short time.” ‘ do for + What the Sleuths Did. All ithe Brooklyn, sleuths did in the search for the missing man was to i deavor to locate the render of the pack- fge which contained Mr. Russell's kevs his package was sent to the Journeay & Compuny ahd was received on Mon- aay. The police found out that it had been sent rum an express office at Ca- fal street and Broadway. That is as tar as their inquiries went, Mrs. Russell still asserts that the keys were not. sent by. Russell, as the hand- writing on the package was not his. She has secured the wrapper of the package and will use it as jevidence after she manages to run down those who she believes are restraining her usband, ( jalan Marie Russell, the missing man's daugnter by his first’ wife, who came on from Milwaukee a few days ago to as- alst in the search for her father, satdthat until several months ago she had lived in Brooklyn ‘with her ‘father and step- mother, but differences having arisen Detween herself and Mra, Russell, she had gone to live with friends in’ Mil- Waukee. She dces not believe that her father's disappearance can be attributed ne between herself and Mrs. i “Tam able to form no theory’ whatso- @ver as to the cause of my father's dis- appearance,” . “It isa mystery to me, J have visited morgues and his- Itals in New York and Brooklyn every Say since my arrival and have employed detectives (o ald in the search.

Devout Italians Begin the Cele- bration of the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel with a Plea for Pope Leo. FIVE DAYS OF WORSHIP. At All of Their Churches In the City ‘They Gather with Bowed Heads, Marching Through the Streets In Devotion to Thelr Patron Saint. \ ‘With feet bared and heads bowed tn Prayer, thousands of Italians walked through the streets of Greater New York to-day to celebrate the feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, an annual ob- servanoe in which “Little Italy” always takes prominent. part. At sunrise the pilgrimages from home to church and the places of rendezvous in the several Itallan communities be- gan, These will continue until nightfall, when Italian homes will be illuminated. Particular stress 1s placed upon the occasion this year because of the condi- tion of the Pope, for whose recovery special prayers are being offered up. The custom of walking to church bare- footed: is in hoor of the pilgrimage of Christ and his disciplos. ‘The Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel in One Hundred and Fifteenth street near Firat avenue was the cen- tre of to-day's wervices. Italians from all over the greater city gathered at the Teligious devotions there. The church was decorated and the Italian commun- ities were in gala dress, The feast inaugurated to-day contin- ues for five days. In every Italian home an altar is erected and devout worship- pers are bent in prayer before it at in- tervals during the day. TWO BURGLARS SINGLE-HANDED Policeman Connolly, of Sheeps- head Bay, Makes Simultane- ous Double Capture—Sets His Associates Wondering. The police of te Sheepshead Bay pre- cinct are studying the report turned in by “Patrolman George Connolly of the arrest of two men on a burglary’charge, They are asking each other: ‘How did nolly do it?" “Did he hypnotize his men?" “What became of the séythe?" Acconling to the réport, Connolly saw two men break into the ticket office of the Brighton Beach Rallroad at ‘Avenue U. ‘This {s'also'the oMce of the Home- crest Building ahd Loan Association. One of the men, who after his. arrest gave the name of George W. Anderson, forty-two years old, living at No. 171 Monroe street, Brooklyn, took a scythe from a closet and cut down the electric ghts, Connolly remained outside until the men were through burglarizing. On thelr exodus from the building the po- Uceman told them they were under ar- rest. ~A man giving the name of James F, Smith, thirty-four years old, of No. 789 Kent avenue, Brooklyn, submitted, but Anderson, according to Connolly's document in the case, drew a rasp ten inches long and attacked him. After a struggle. Anderson broke and tan. Connolly fired a shot in the air c}after the fleelng man, commanded him to halt, and, drawing’ his Ket stick, felled the fying burgiar with a low on the head, which laid the scalp open for several inches, What Connolly's associates who have studied the report want to know is: “How long is Connolly's arm? If the patrolman pursued Anderson, why did not Smith break and run; was it be- cause he was hypnotized? They say Connolly will have to do some explain- ing when he appears at the station. owever this may be, the exeential Tremains—he arrested both men. es HORSE BLOCKS BRIDGE.
