HUNT FOR CRONES BAGS
2 ALLEGED GUN TOTERS
Detectives Running Down Tips
Find Prisoners in Bed.

In the belief that Jean Crones, the
Chicago poisoner, is still hiding in
this city, the police continued their
hunt yesterday. Every written or tele-
phone communication sent TO Head
quarters was considered and men were
sent out to run it down.
Late in the afternoon note was re-
oeived by Captain Tunney, Of the Detec-
tive Bureau, saying that Crones was
hidden in boarding house at 2l5 West
Forty-ninth Street. Detectives Hughes
and Conway entered the house dressed
as laborers. In searching the house
they found. on the top floor, lodger in
bed. lie said his name was Frank An
tico and denied that he knew Crones.
In a bureau drawer the detectives say
they found q loaded revolver. On the
strength of their discovery, Hughes and
Conway arrested Antico as a violator of
the Sullivan law
In the basement the detectives found
Benjamin de Marco, in whose bureau
they said they found pistol. He also
was arrested.
Detectives said many tips had come
to Headquarters during the day and
while some were sent by cranks and
practical jokers, the likely ones were
investigated promptly.
Adyices from Chicago yesterday were
that the police of Chicago believed
Crones had left New York and vas on
his way back TO the city where he
sought to poison the diners at the ban
quet given TO Archbishop Mundelein.
Captain Tunney said last night that
he believed Crones had not left the city
and doubted that he would return to
Chicago.

Panama, Feb. 21.--The progress made
in removing the debris from the Gail

depth of thirty feet throughout the en-
tire cut and a width of probably $50
feet. These figures. however, change
slightly daily, owing 20 the shifting Of
dredgcs and also 10 the continued
movement of earth from both banks Of
the cut. In spite OF the short month,
it is expected that upward of million
