daughter of Martin Maloney the mill

have not been heard of since they
came here on a shopping tour from
the summer home Of the brides pa
rents at Spring Lake, n. j., two days
ago. Instead of returning home. the
young woman sent a message inform
ing her parents that she had secretly
married the man she loved, and when
the message reached Spring Lake
they would be on the water. Instantly
search for the young woman. who is
said to be one of the richest heiresses
in the world, was begun. Wireless
messages have been sent to all out
going steamers, cable messages have
gone to London and kilograms have
been dispatched to all points In Amer
lea where 1t is thought the young
couple may have gone. The father
and mother believe the elopers sailed
for Europe and they intend to en-
courage them to return and spend
their honeymoon at the Spring Lake
The father of the missing
girl arrived today from st. Louis and
sent an agent to Europe
to find the missing couple and assure
them that he had no III will for either
of them. Both she and the young
man knew how to fool us, he said,
