Son Of Promf' I Brooklyn Lawyer, on
Vacation Trip to Maine, Seems to Have
Been Victimized by Chance Acquaint=
ance Whom He Met in Boston.

Waterville. Me. Oct. 1.-(SpeciaD.--
The experience of John Miller. son of
awealthy Brooklyn lawyer, is another
exemplification of the fact that it is d
with strangers when travelling. Miller
fell on Main street last night in what
was supposed to be a fit, but subse-
Quent Developments brought out the
fact that he had been drugged by a
man whose acquaintance ne made
Wednesday in Boston while on his way
to Maine to pass his vacation visiting
points of interest in this State.
The stranger gave his name as Hen
ry Jones and said he hailed from
Vermont. Whether or not be really be
longs in the Green Mountain state is
not known locally, but there is no
doubt but what Miller's pocketboolt,
containing about $50 in cash, his suit
case, containing his clothing and per-
sonal effects, and his vest are missing
as is also the stranger.
Miller Is at present in beWildercd
condition and except during periodical
lucid intervals seems to know little Of
what has happened since he formed
the acquaintance of Mr.. Jones OF Yer
mont. From what he has been able 10
tell Of himself and his movements it
appears that he left his home in Brook
lyn last Tuesday. His father is a
prominent Brooklyn attorney and each
year gives him certain amount Of
cash with which to enjoy his vacation.
II Is his custom to come to Maine and
pay short visits to various towns and
points of interest. This is his second
visit to Waterville.
From Brooklyn. Miller went to Bus-
ton by boat and from there took the
boat for Portland, where he passed
one night While in Boston he met
Jones, who seemed to be a companions
able young man and the two Travelled
together from Boston to Portland and
later as far us this city They passed
Wednesday in Portland. staying there
over night They then continued their
journey.
Early in the trip Miller remarked that
he had no handkerchief and would have
to get one from his suit case. Jones had
ar extra one, which he volunteered to
loan his travelling companion The loan
was accepted. From that time Miller re-
members little of what happened. He no.
tioed a peculiar smell on the handker-
chief, which is now believed to have been
treated with a powerful drug. 1t is also
believed that the effects of the first dose
administered We're not allowed to wear
of because successive doses were admin
istered.
