client was Miss Sadie Hermelin. school
teacher who first told Mr.. kOhler that his
laughter and Doyle had been seen in
each others company. Miss Hermelin also
testified that she had frequently been with
Martha Kohler and Doyle when they Wis
tied COney Island hotels together. and 1t
was she who told Nh Kohler where ne
could find his daughter after the gu had
gone to Atlantic City with Grace Cox.

District Attorney Cropsey' when seen
last night said the case OF the gang o.
wealthy young ren who are alleged To
have infested the neighborhood near
Flatbush and Fulton avenues had not
been taken up by the grand jury, nor
was there much probability that ii would
be. There was no evidence to support
such action. Mr.. Cropsey said, and his
investigation had failed to uncover any
grounds for action by that body. Mr..
Cropsey by the way. is regarded as i'm
