ARREST In TUCHTON CASE.
FRANK JONES GETS IN TROUBLE FOR
KNOWING TOO MUCH.
SEEN IN PHILADELPHIA PRIOR
TO THE FINDING OF THE BODY
AND HAS BEEN a CLOSE FRIEND
OF STANLEY. TUCHTON
OF STANLEY TUCHTON.

For having said that he knew some
thing about the mysterious death Of
Mrs. Stanley Tuchton, Frank Jones. a
young married man living i'm South vii.
mington. Is prisoner at the police sta
ton. Several days ago Jones told Omi-
Ger Simon Moran that he did not come
into town. fearing that he would be ar
rested as the man Robertson. who ac-
companied Mrs. TuchtOn to the Pine
street house, in Philadelphia. where the
Daby boy was taken by Mrs. Tuchton
Inc matter was reported TO police head
quarters, and Jones has been shadowed
by the police ever since. He answers
the description of Robertson. being
about six feet tall and built according
to the description given
Jones was arrested yesterday at his
home by Sergeant Evans and Officer
Shields He had just returned home
from a cunning trip and did not seem
az all surprised when placed under ar
rest. Several persons called at the po-
ice station TO see ii they could identify
him, but failed to do so.
Jones is in the employ of Stanley
luchton, and this led the police to be-
lieFe- he knew something about the
case. Aside from this. they have no evil
dence against him.
In February last. Jones was seen in
Philadelphia with Stanley Tuchton. ana
on several occasions he mas gone gum
ming with Tuchton down the bay. They
had planned another trip, but the death
Of Mrs. Tuchton prevented it. Since his
arrest. Jones confessed to being i'm
philadelphia at the time the body was
found, but says he was purchasing
stove and sundry articles for Tuchton's
yacht.
William Wood. son of Mrs. Annie
Wood who kept the Pine street house.
came TO Wilmington yesterday to see
II he could identify Jones as the man
who went to his mothers home with
Mrs. TuchtOn. Young Wood eyed the
man from head to foot and said: "He
is not the man."
lt will be remembered that Mrs
Nathalie Wilson. who lives on Lowering
avenue, testified az the coroner's in
quest that she saw Mrs. Tuchton and a
very tall man pass her door on the
Saturday afternoon just before the girl
is supposed to have met her death. Mrs
Wilson, when brought face to face with
Jones, did not recognize him as the
man.
Mrs. Wood was expected to come TO
Wilmington this morning to see if she
could identify Jones. but up to the time
OF going TO press had not complied with
Chief Dolan's request It was learned
this morning that when the arrest of
Jones had been made public Stanley
Tuchton was seen hurrying down King
street, bound for Philadelphia. and his
visit, the chief thinks. may have some
thing to do with the non-arrival of Mrs.
Woods
Captain Kane visited Stanley Tuch-
ton this morning, but learned nothing
of the woman's refusal to come TO VIII
mingtOn
Jones was arraigned in Municipal
Court this morning, and Judge Ball or
dered him held until tonight.
Later-Mrs. Woods arrived shortly
after 2 o'clock, but at the time Of go
ing to press had not identified Jones.

the Union News Company, Of this city.

s.tion he sought and sent him a basket
of supplies which were of a perishable
nature. He also sent him a pass over
the road on which he was to work. A
few days later he received word from
the young man that he would like to
come to Wilmington and see him per
sonally. Mr.. Burns duly secured an
other pass and sent it to him.

dent The boy, who was apparently
ABOUT Is years old, said: Mr. Burns /
came up to tell you that l couldn't go

Keep in the house the stuff you sent

While the youth was making his

foot to the other, with his hands jam
med down deep into his trouser pock-
cts. Mr. Burns could hardly suppress
his wrath while the young man was
telling his story. At last he recovered
his breath, which was almost aiken
away at the audacity of the country
boy, who had Travelled a hundred miles
to tell him he could not go to wc.x for
him until school stopped. Mr.. Burns
jammed his hands down into his pock-
cts also, and walked around the room
two or three times Then he told the
boy to get cut" in terms too plainto be
misunderstood, and the youth fed.
leaving behind him the maddest man
