CLUE TO LOST GIRL
Now Find Miss Dorothy Arnold
Asked About Steamships.
SEARCHING PARK FOR BODY
Father Of Missing Heiress Still Be-
lieves She Is Dead-Po-
lice Baftaed.

NEW YORK. January 31.-Despite the
finding of a new clue which indicates that
Miss Dorothy Arnold, the missing heir
ess, contemplated a trip abroad on the
day Of her disappearance, Francis Arnold
the young womans father, still MAIN
tains his belief that she is dead. Today
marks the end of the seventh week Of
her absence from home, and there has
been but little change in the situation
since the day of her mysterious disap-
pearance.
The clue which caused a momentary
rise in the tagging hopes Of the lawyers
directing the search was furnished by a
steamship agency in the neighborhood
0f the store where she was last seen.
A young woman answering to the general
description Of Miss Arnold called at the
agency on or about December Il and pro-
cured literature relative to foreign cruises.
She inquired particularly about cruises
to the West Indies, but no reservation
for her was made. according to the
agency's records. She was not seen at
the agency again.
The manager Of the steamship depart
ment of the Office said when he saw the
picture Of Miss Arnold in the paper he
noted the resemblance to young woman
with whom he had a talk. He recalled
the black fox muff with white points SIM
liar to the one Miss Arnold carried
Searching Central Park.
The plan to drag the lake and meres in
Central Park has been temporarily aban-
doned. Instead. force of private detec-
tfves is searching the park today and
every place in the park where a body
might be concealed will be examined. The
police claim that inasmuch as the lake
had been coated with ice for several days
before Miss Arnold disappeared it is un-
likely that the water there holds her
body. The lake is still frozen over
Positive proof was obtained today that
Miss Arnold did purchase candy at Park
& Tilf0rd's store about noon on Decem-
Der II, as was reported to John S. Keith,
counsel for the Arnold family. 1t was
thought she had gone from the store to
Central Park and might have been drown
edAThe saleswomen at the candy counter
knew Miss Arnold well. Their testimony
and the sales slip and tally sheets prove
that the candy was bought early and not
at dusk.
Got Mail at General Delivery.
After several denials OH the part of the
family it was definitely established today
and admitted by Mr.. Keith that Miss
Arnold had been receiving mail at the
general delivery window Of the post office
From envelopes found around her
Foom,'' he said. I'VE learned that Miss
Arnold had been receiving mail from
publishing houses to which she had been
sending manuscript at the general deliv-
cry. There was no reason for her to
do this except that her family and
friends 'kidded' her about being a liter
ary woman

big engine which alone was off the
track and leaning at an angle of twen-
ty degrees was back in place. The en-

it had practically been righted short
ly after o'clock the tackling on the
wrecker slipped and permitted the en-
gine to topple over on its side. In
falling it struck the safety gate at
the Holman street crossing and this
crashed to the pavement in splinters.

Merchants.

Indiana Harbor Ind, May 31-South
Water street had better sit up and take
notice of Judge Walter !. Riley The
merchants of that busy street may
think that they are the whole thing in
the matter of regulating the price of
poultry but they are not, for the judge
priced four chickens at s91.25 each,
Monday, when he assessed a fine of
1866 worth of days on Charlie Bigg for
the larceny of a quartette of fine leg
horns, three hens and rooster from
Mr.. Seeds of Commonwealth and Michi-
gan avenue, early Sunday morning.
His honor did not however levy the
heavy sentence solely on the theft of
the chickens but more particularly be-
cause the prisoner had the most vicious
looking black jack, that Chief. Leo Nc
Cormick had ever seen. concealed on
his person and also because his CONVEX
sation and appearance indicated that he
was a bad man generally and his abb
sence from Indiana Harbor for at least
a year couldn't possibly do that city
any harm.
