REWARD OF $1,000
FOR Boys RETURN
rsssd ,sIka moLy penupuoOl


cils meet next Thursday, there is a
possibility that they may be asked to
offer another reward. Select Counch-
man William ]. Crawford, of the Thir-
tisth ward, yesterday said he was con-
sidering this plan, and probably would
affer a resolution at the next meeting.
Captain of Police McCoach said Coun-
els offered a reward for the return of
CharIie Ross, kidnapped from his home
In Germantown forty years ago.
Impetus will be given to the search
for the missing lad by the reward. 1t
IL thought Private detectives through
out this and other cities will add their
efforts to those of the polise and CEN
trail office detectives.
Three Suspects Fred
Three suspects we're questioned at
the Twentieth and F1tzwater street
station yesterday, but later were re-
leased. The first man was James
Donohue, a description of whom had
beep sent out Saturday afternoon.
Donohue speedily convinced the detec-
tfves that he knew nothing of the mis-
ing lad. The other men. one of them
colored, were picked UP in the neigh
borhood of the lads home.
Captain McCoach, Detectives Glea-
son and Ulrich and special policemen

disappearance.
City Treasurer McCoach and McCar-
rick, the boys father, who works in
the Office of the Recorder Of Deeds,
are personal friends. The City Treas
urer saw that McCarrtck would not be
able to stand the strain of the suspense
much longer, and accordingly auth
orized him to offer reward of $1,000.
After McCarrick had announced this
hn
1.-The $1,000 will be paid five minu-
tes after the boy is returned to his
home
For a time yesterday the scene of
the search was shifted to pictures
que old Martins and Greenwich vii
lage, in the far southeastern part of
the city. Detective Frank O'Connor
and several others went into that re-
gion and also through the truck farm
territory between Broad street and the
Schuylkill river, searching for some
trace of the formers wagon in which
Warren is though to have been carried
away. They found nothing.
Search Near Home
Further search also was made in the
stables and houses near the home of
the missing boy. The lads father per-
sists in the belief that the child is
somewhere in the neighborhood. Two
detectives or special policemen are
standing guard all the time in front
of the McCarrick house. 1t is feared
that neighbors may try to inf1ict sum-
mary vengeance if 1t is discovered that
the boy has been harmed.
One theory to which the detectives
are devoting much time is that burg
lar who robbed the home of Joseph
Craven, 1889 Bainbridge street, may
be implicated in the disappearance.
The robbery occurred last Wednesday,
the day before Warren was missed.
A woman who lives In the neighbor-
hood says she saw Warren chopping
ice in the alley in the rear of the
house that was robbed, on the day of
the burglary.
The detectives believe that the burg
lar may have been known to the boy,
and that after making good his es-
cape he became apprehensive that the
lad had recognized him, and decided
to get the child out of the way.
