Cleared as a Result of InveS-
tigation by the Police.
NO TRACE OF THE BOY
Brooklyn Address Given by Him
to His Employer Found by
Detectives To Be
Fictitious.

After another day Of fruitless search
ing, which served chiefly to eliminate
possibilities which the police have been
following up in their effort to solve the
mysterious murder Of Julia Connors in
The Bronx last Sunday, they still con-
sdered Yesterday that the most i'm
portant thing for them TO determine was
the Whereabouts Of the absent butcher
boy who was employed up TO a short
time before the murder by Morris Isaacs
in his meat shop. on the ground floor of
the apartment house In which the slash
ing was done.
Inquiries made by the police at an ad-
dress in Brooklyn given them by Mr..
Isaacs as the place where the missing
boy told him his brother lived brought
out the fact that neither he nor his sup
posed brother We're known there An
other circumstance that kept alive the
interest OF the police in the movements
Of this boy was that. although he had
told Mr.. Isaacs that he was going to
sail on the Cincinnati for Europe a week
ego Yesterday. they have learned that
he was seen in the neighborhood as re-
Gently as last Monday, the day follow
ing the girls death.
Despite these circumstances the police
reiterated their statements that they had
no actual evidence tending to implicate
this boy in any way. The only reason
for their interest, they said was the
fact that they had not been able to find
him.
Four men. three Of them under arrest.
were definitely eliminated from the case
yesterday by the detectives working on
the mystery. One of them was Ernest
Hautville, arrested late on Wednesday
night in Crotona Park by Sergeant
GUILTY.
He was arraigned before Magistrate
Barlow, in the Morrisania court, and
held on a charge Of vagrancy for forty
eight hours in order TO give the police
time 10 investigate. They said yester-
day they were satisfied he had nothing
70 do with the case.
Another man was Charles Kramer,
the nineteen year-old youth arrested on
Wednesday on the complaint Of Alice
DIVER that he had tried 10 entice her
into a doorway. When his hearing in
court was called yesterday Joseph Lynn,
Of No. 100 West 143d street. appeared
and said he thought Kramer was the
man who had accosted his daughter a
few weeks ago. When the girl was
brought in she failed TO identify him.
He was held in 500 bail simply on the
first charge against him. The police
said they had no further interest in him.
The third man 10 be let out Of the
case was Abkae Jasseror, an Armenian
rug maker He vas brought into the
fremont station yesterday morning by
e private detective. who thought he was
acting in a peculiar manner. The man
said ne had been out Of work for days
having spent the last four nights IN
Crotona Park. He was held on a charge
Of vagrancy, but the police promptly ar
rived a. the conclusion that he had
nothing 10 DO with the Connors case.
Ire fourth man 10 be dropped by the
Investigator was an old man, said 10

daughter q Mrs. J. Psackis, who lives
across the street from the fat in which
