Please come home. Remember our happy married life—nine and a half years and the ohildren.” A clue which Mr. Cruger believed had much promise proved valuéless to-day when he investigated the story of an informant who said he had seen a girl resembling Miss Cruger led away from the One Huh- |dred and Fifty-seventL Street #ub- way station by kindly strangers after she had attempted to throw herself in front of @ train, The woman who attempted suicide was identified as « married woman living in the neigh- borhood of the station who had angered her husband by staying away from home for two days. ‘The detectives under Capt. Alonzo Cooper who have been conducting the pollee search admitted to-day that they had the {nformation gained by Mr. Cruger, but had withheld it for reasons of their own, even from the Cruger family. The detectives have visited more than fifteen young men acquain of Miss Cruger and many of her girl friends in order to make sure she had not gone walk- ing or skating with any of them after she lett Cocchi’s place. All have ac- countéd for their time Tuesday and none had seen Miss Cruger that ‘afternoon. Three hundred suggestions and false clues have been followed to the end by the police, according to the de- tectives, A search of the woods in the northern Bronx and lowet West- , ter County was begun to-day, cially in thickets and underbrush shout lakes and ponds used by skat- ers. Every taxleab driver along the line of the Lenox Avenue and Bronx subway north of One Hundred and Twenty-fifth Street has been ques- tioned without result Word was received at the Cruger home to-day that a strange girl carry- ing @ pair of skates had appeared in Spotswood, Middlesex County Y. early last week. ‘The Even World at once got into telephone communi M.
