KIDNAP Her SISTER
Police Seek Three For kbiuC-

While gagged and bound to a bed

Md, Rosie Ranko, aged twelve years,
says she saw three men drug and kid
nap her seventeen-year-old sister, Tin
ka Ranko, and steal s1450, her fath-r' 5
savings of lifetime.
With the girl and the money In
their possession, the three men, who,
the father says, were Peter, Eli and
Spiro de Metro, of Philadelphia, then
decamped, leaving the younger girl
helpless to give an alarm. Several
hours later she was found by her fata-
er in an exhausted condition.
This story was told to Police Magis-
trate Smith, who thereupon issued
warrants for the arrest Of the men
named. All the parties concerned are
gypsies, and the affair is reported to
have occurred last Tuesday night.
According to the ehild's story, the
men forced Tinka to swallow some
liquid which rendered her unconscious
in a few minutes.
Failing to find his daughter in the
gypsy settlement in Baltimore, the
father finally appealed to the police.
He said that four members 70 his
tribe had gone to Philadelphia to hunt
for the missing girl and her alleged
