Goto Is Captured
After Long Time

Goto, a Japanese for whom the police
have been looking for long time, was
yesterday arrested by Special Oficer
Tapaka.
Go,o was ono OF the transition pc.
riod prisoners. He was sentenced TO
Imprisonment for life but was released
on a writ of habeas corpus by Judge
Gear.
Goto was one of the first Of these
prisoners to be released. That was
before the police had adopted the
trick to rearrest the defendants imme.
diately on their leaving the court
house. Goto used his chance we'll and
made good his escape from the guar
dams of the law, who have been look
ing for him ever since. Goto was the
only one who managed to gain and re-
tain his liberty In this manner.
The elusive Japanese was caught in
this city. He spent most Of his time
since he was released, on Kauai. Cote
will be sent back to Oahu prison under
the old mittimus which, under the ia
nous decision In the Mankichi case
still holds good.

NEW YORK, Aug. 19.-The belief
is gaining ground that the kidnappers
Of little Antonio Mannino, becoming
alarmed at the activity of the police,
have fed to italy with him. The
steamer Nord America sailed yester-
day for Naples and Genoa. A few
minutes before the gang plank was
hauled in two men, hauling a boy
between them, ran down the dock and
boarded the vessel. The boy was
crying bitterly and in boarding the
steamer. the men seemed anxious to
avoid any scrutiny on the part of its
officers. II was impossible to trace
the mysterious trio today by means
OF the Nord America sailing list. Two
men and boy were booked, but
there was nothing to show where they
had been living.
The police have great confidence in
This clew, and the Italian consul will
be asked to cooperate with them in
