Of HITCHCOCK,
M|SS|hG ACTOR

! New York, Oct. 3l.--The sudden disap'

comedian, has not yet been cleared up
About the time the news of his failure to
appear at the theatre on Broadway, where
he has been starring, began to spread In
the theatrical district he was being in
dicted by the grand Jury for alleged mis-
dictmsrts charge him with felonies, and
conviction on the six counts might send
him To prison for the dest OF his life.
Several theories are advanced as to the
missing actor. one is that he is bound for
Europe, and that the steamer he is on is
the White Star liner Majestic. which left
about an hour after he was last seen
here: another IL that he has met with
foul play and yet another is that he has
committed suicide, having become crazed
by the accusations against him.
Flora Zabelle, his WIFE who is I'm the
play In which Hitchcock had the leading
role. told Henry w. Savage, owner OF the
company, that her hlsband left the hotel
where they were staying shortly before
