Mystery surrounding the disappear
ance Of little Francis Malloy, 4 years
old, the son of James II. Malloy, of No.
14O2 French street, is getting as deep
as that which surrounded the Marvin
case.
The lad has now been missing two
days, and there is no trace of him.
The Brandywine creek, for a dis
tance Of 300 yards on either side Of the
Peoples railway bridge, where the
youngster was last seen shortly before
o'clock on Tuesday evening, has
been dragged with graphing irons
and every foot of the bed of the stream
in that locality gone over without sue
cess.
Worked All Night
John Martin. the riverman' who
knows every inch Of the Brandywine
creek, directed the searchers in their
work of dragging the stream all OF
last night, and to-day the work was
continued.
Already ruomrs are beginning to cir
culate the same as in the Marvin case
and every clue, as soon as reported to
the anxious father Of the boy, is fol-
lowed BY him personally, while his

Has Run Down Every Clue
'T really don't know what to dc
next" said Mr.. Malloy to-day. Il have
run down every clue thus far reported
hut without success. I have not even
found anybody, aside from neigh-
boris boy, who is but one year Older
than little Francis who saw my son
and how he could have disappeared SC
uickly I cannot understand.
Il am sure that nobody Kidnapped
him for a ransom, as there is no ram

fascinated by his appearance may
have carried him off. If he is ahV'
