last September, when Crane took his vaca.
ZION and seized the opportunity to visit his
family at Dayton. At the end Of two
weeks. instead of his reporting for work at
the office Of the baking powder company, a
letter was received from him resigning from
their employ. About the same time the
mistress of the house where Crane boarded
received a letter from him asking her to

brooklyn. A day or two after the receipt
or this letter Miss DeGarno called
at the house and inquired for Mr.
Crane, and appeared very much surprised
TO learn that he was not coming back
Later she called again and said that she was
going TO be married to Mr.. Crane on Oct.
IL, and that he had asked her to send his
bicycle on to him at Dayton. His laudlady
was reluctant to give the wheel up at first,
but as Crane had always spoken in the
highest terms Of her, she finally gave the
bicycle to the young woman. Miss De-
Garno, declining all offers Of assistance,
wheeled the machine away herself.
A day or two later Cranes landlady
made call on Miss Cossa, where Miss
DeGarno boarded, and learned that the
latter had tried to leave. but could not get
her trunk away because of an unpaid board
bill That same day Miss DeGarno APP
peared at her boarding house, paid her bill
and took her trunk away. She was asked
what she had done with the wheel, AMI she
said she had expressed it 60 Crane. When
asked what express Office she had gone to,
or where the order for the wheel from Mr.
Crane was, she declined TO tell, and as she
had no money when she left her boarding
house and had some when she returned,
after obtaining possession of the wheel, Mr..
Cranes landlady thinks she pawned it,
A dispatch from Dayton, o., said that
Miss DeGarno had appeared there and was
looking for Crane, with the avowed purpose
of making him marry her, because, she
said. he had betrayed her under promise of
marriage. Young Crane got wind of her
presence and Immediately left for parts un-
known. She swore out warrant for his
arrest, and 1t is said that bis relatives tried
to compromise with her, as his family is
quite rich. She was then arrested, but,
upon telling her story, was let go, and now
has detectives on the track Of Crane. She
says she does not wish to live with Crane,
but simply wants him to marry her. It is
said that Crane has gone to Europe, or is
about to 60. aud that MISS DeGarno's father
Is waiting for him on the other side and will
give him a warm reception.
A NICE YOUNG MAN.
DR.. Hoagland, the president Of the CleYe-
land Baking Powder Company said to-day
that Crane was in the employ OF the COM
pany about two months and was in every
respect an exemplary young man, and that
his family was one of the best in the coun-
try. DR.. Hoagland thought that he had
been little foolish, but that he had done
nothing wrong, and simply thought the
best way to get away from Miss DeGarno
was by leaving town. His landlady also
spoke very highly OF young Crane, and said
that after he left Miss DeGarno would fire..
quently walk up ana down past the house
and look up at the windows, evidently with
the idea Of attracting his attention.
Miss Cossa, with whom Miss DeGarno
boarded on Schermerhorn street, denied
vigorously that the young woman had ever
boarded there. II don't have that kind in
my house." she said. She was asked what
kind she referred to, but refused to 90 into
particulars, concluding with the statement
that she had never heard of Miss DeGRrno.

De0srno is the daughter of Frenchman
