toned by Inspector Wheeler. Mr.. CO.
hen, who was detained in a cell in an
other police station, was also ques-
toned.
Miss DeJalon declared that her
chief desire was to eliminate future
trouble and return to her grandfather.
She related the story of her travels to
Inspector Wheeler, but told little she
had not told last night. She reiterated
that her relations with Cohen had been
as those of father and daughter.
II will promise never to have any
thing more to do with Mr. Cohen said
Miss DeJanon. Il will try to give him
some money if my grandfather will al
low it. Mr. Cohen told me that he had
given his wife 5000 before we started
on our trip 1 would like to see his
family we'll provided for.
"rhis is not the first time I have
run away from home. When l was II
years old and living with my mother at
Clayton, N. Y, L ran away to go to
nv father, who was in New York City.
1 only reached Utica when 1 was
caught and sent back home"
A man who gave his name as w. j.
Burns called en- Miss DeJanon and said
he was representing her grandfather,
Robert BUST He was with her for
for some time.
The Chicago police telegraphed
Chief of Police Taylor of Philadelphia
last night and he replied today that he
has sent two detectives on late train
last night They are expected to arrive
this afternoon.
Among the correspondence of Roberta
DeJanon and Cohen, found in the elop-
er's rooms, was the following written
on the face of an envelope:
"ro my sweetheart papa. from his
sweetheart daughter
~ wish I could have a little talk with
you tonight as / am feeling terribly sad
but guess we will have to wait until to-
morrow.
''If it is a nice day and if papa is not
ready to take Tootsie down about 10.45 !
will try to come down, but if / find that's
impossible, don't get angry. Good night
dear"
This letter was evidently reply to one
in which the waiter threatened suicide:
81 think it is awfully unknd of you to
say such unknd things about killing
Yourself / think ! am unhappy enough
now without you Trying " Hldhc iiit iiioic
so for you know, dear, l love my sweet
heart papa and would always like to
have you near me if it We're only possible.
Good bye until tomorrow morning,
when ! will expect a nice fatherly kiss
from you"
That Roberta INDUCED in poetry is in
dictated by the following found scrib-
bled on an envelope:
Suppose that I'm girl from Germany,
the Fatherland.
You understand?
Suppose that you're d man from gay
Paree.
Home of romance,
'ln sunny France
"But don't know word of your Fran
caiSe.
But German too. is Greek to you.
do you think that you can find a way to
say that you love me?
Why certainly:
Words are not the only thing
When you are making love:
Your eyes are always a-whiSpering
Come be my turtle dove.
Every time you take her hand
She knows your love is true,
And lips are only needed
when you steal a kiss or two.
But be careful not to steal more than
two,
For il YOU do you will again hear; y
hate you.
This exchange related to disparity in
ages of the "sweethearts:''
Hello, honey. If man of 26 is too old
for you, then certainly 1 don't stand the
ghost of a chance
The reply, written on the same piece of
paper:
"A man of A. is about the right age for
father. so you see you stand more than
a ghost of a chance. Your daughter
Miss De Janon became nervous tonight
after spending "A hours in police station
and asked if she could not go to theatre
The girl, who related to the police re-
markable story of her attachment for the
Philadelphia waiter as an adopted father,
grew weary of waiting for the arrival of
detectives from Philadelphia to take her
to her grandfather's home, from which
she fled in disguise. Information reached
the police that the Philadelphia officers
would not arrive to return East with the
girl and Cohen tonight. When Miss De
Janon heard this she exclaimed to the
matron:
"Oh, I can't stand it to be cooped up
in here so long. Can't I go somewhere"
AS no charge is made against her the
girl was pefHllleu 10 attend d Theatrical
performance in company with detectives.
Later she was returned to the station to
await the arrival of the officers Cohen re-
manned in a cell in the Chicago Avenue
station.
