AUD.IN-NAME-OF IRISH VOLUNTEERS A. H. Dilton Under Arrest Charged with Obtaining Sub- soriptions for Organization Which Does Not Exist. FR SFEK GIRL TO FIN MISSING STUDENT Hoboken Police Believe if They Can Locate Young Boston Woman They Will Discover Whereabouts of J. W. Mitchell It has been learned by Chief of Police Hayes, of Hoboken, that a young Bos- ton woman has seen John Wesley Mitchell, the young student in the Stev- ens Institute of Technology. since he was reported missing, and detectives have been sent to that city, to locate her. The chief believes that if she can be found the whereabouts of the stu- dent will be easily ascertained. It is the police theory that he is with the girl now. Preaident Alexander Humphreys, of the institute, and the father and mother of Mitchell bad a long conference with Chief Hayes last night, during which Mr. Humphreys told the chief to spara no expense in his efforts. He’ sald the institute would pay all expense attached to a thorough search for the young TORN BILL AS EVIDENCE. Detectives Said to Have Been Search- ing for the Prisoner for Two Years, Many City Officials Being Alleged Victims. A man for whom the police had been searching for two years, it is said, was arrested to-day in the office of the Re- ceiver of Taxes. He was taken into rustody by Policeman Birmingham and locked up in the City Hall station. He gave thé name of A. H. Dillon, and claimed a residence in the Bronx. He was later taken to Headquarters by direction of Inspector McClusky, it is said that evidence showing fraudu- y lent operations in connection with the defunct Irish-American Volunteers was found in possession of the prisoner. He \s forty-five years old and of short stature. It ts alleged that for two years tho man has been soliciting subscriptions as & representative of the Sixtmenin' Regiment for the Irish-American - umteers. Am city officials who have contributed under the Impression that the Association was aa it, existent by Mr, Humphreys was of the opinion that if the police could only find the furnished room in Hoboken that Mitch- eh hired and lived in while attending echool letters would be found that would furnish a clue to his where- abotits. Mitchel! had @ fall on Jan. 14 and n- jured his head. The next day he went to the home of his parents at Strat- ford, Conn., anderemained there until Jan. 18, when he left heme ostensibly to return to school. He is known to Ys, | have gone to the Bible House in New the| York and to a photographer's in Will- fam street, and then he disappeared as completely as if swallowed up by the earth.

And the statement is an incéntro- vertible fact. You select from Furniture as fin in the best regular stock. ' You have even a broader variety than usual to choose from. Every piece is as fully guaranteed as though you paid its regular price for it. Yet, much of the furniture is worth double its February price: the largest part of it is worth a half more than its February price; and the very choicest and most staple goods in the gale are worth a third toa quarter more than you need pay at this time. p And, further; you may seléet the furniture that you wish now— enjoy all the benefits of the large economies offered—and have the goods delivered later on in the Spring, when you are ready for them. This arrangement takes away the last possible reason tor waiting, and paying half as much more for what you buy.
