home at Good Ground and then disap-
peared and three days later the bodies
OF Foster and the Lawrence girl were
found floating in the bay not far from

seen. No one could be found to tell
how they came to be drowned, and
there was a call for Disbrow to come
forward to explain what he knew of
the case. The coroner after an exami-
nation of the bodies could find no trace
Of violence. Then in response to a
public demand the district attorney
and the coroner made an st;gation
and had an autopsy and again
the report was there were no evil
dences of murder. Disbrow stayed
away and at last a warrant was is
sued for him. Just what the warrant
charges is not known.

his counsel to see him tonight. Fur
ther than to intimate that he met Dis
brow in New York city, Attorney Miles
refused to say where he found his
client.
