 sundcd Her to Come Here Is Out of Town Now.

The holding of a pretty seventeen year old girl from Wilkesbarre, Pa.
 in this city ostonsibly as q stenograph- or but. In the belief of the police here, for no ultimate good purpose, was interrupted yesterday by Detec- two Donnelly and the girls father as the result of letter written by the young lady to her chnm In Wilkes barre. The girl left her home with out notice las, Friday at noon to ac- company to this city Jay Fuller. a young man who represents himself as banker of tbc firm of Fuller x Co., and who has offices in the Knights of Columbus building. Full- or met tho young girl through some friends of hers who knew him. He be- came attracted by her and told her that he wanted stenographer for his office here He told her that it would not make any difference if she was not thoroughly up to date at the Inc of work as he would have an assistant for her until she got well under way and he would give her sl0 q week. Tho girl was favorably impressed, and without notice to her parents she got excused at noon time from her duties at the high school in Wilkesbarre, which she attended, and left there with Fuller
 The two went right to New York, where the girl spent the night at a hotel in Manhattan while the young man stayed in Brooklyn They then came 10 this city and spent one night at local hotel where the man regis tered as MT Fuller and tho girl as Miss Fuller, his sister Since then she has been living here at high class boarding house on George street. She was known as Fuler's sister
 The girls parents know nothing of hcr whereabouts and became distract cd at her peculiar disappearance. They had no tidings until the girls letter to her chum fell into the hands of the father. He left home a once and hastoned to this city Arriving here yesterday he went at once to the police headquarters and told the story. Detective Donnolly was assign ed to the case and found the girl in Church street on description.
 The girl was not at all averse to a chance 10 go home again. She told the police that Fuller had gone away and after searching almost day for the man the police gave 1t up. The father took tho girl back home on d night train last night. Her disappear ance has so seriously affected her mother that sho Is In a very critical condition. while tho father was also quite broken up about the case. He was very much pleased to find his : daughter all right as he had enter talncd grave fears about her condition when she had disappeared for so long a time The police do not attempt to analy2e the motives of Fuller but they are satisfied that there were no i'm. proper relations between the two young people, t'uller's office in the Knights of Columbus building is fine- ly fitted out, but according to the story of the girl little buisness has
