LANDAW WAS HERE
YESTERDAY MORNING
Missing Man Believed to Have
Gone Away for Reasons Not
Disclosed.

The Chester police today said that they
are Of tho belief that Harry NJ. Iandaw,
whose overcoat, hat and license tags were
found in that city yesterday morning, has
simply dropped out of sight for reasons
best known TO himself.
Thomas Scott and Landaw were pro-
prietors of the Hotel Stoeclsle garage. The
Chester police have been told that on
Monday afternoon about o'clock Lam
daw purchased q new suit of clothes in a
clothing store in Chester and this strength
ems their belief that Landaw did not
meet with foul play. As a matter of fact
he was seen ''all dressed up" at Ninth and
Market streets, Wilmington, at Q o'clock
yesterday morning
Landaw left this city Monday after
noon it is said, with between $500 and
81 400 IN his possession, presumably TO
purchase an automobile in Chester. The
discovery yesterday morning of his over
coat. hat and license tags along the rail-
road in Chester gave rise TO rumors of
foul play.
Local police would not discuss the case
today Detective Mahoney made an in
vestigation of the affair yesterday. His
report was submitted TO Sergeant Benson,
who in turn submitted it to the Chief of
Police. The contents of the report were
not disclosed, however.
Landaw's hat and coat were found at
Sixth and Sproul streets, Chester, which
is directly adjacent to the tracks of the
Pennsylvania railroad and within easy
access of the busy thoroughfare. making
it an inappropriate spot for q hiehwayTnan
or criminal to hide evidence. The fact
that this is a busy section with many
l. T. e. Ill
another reason given by the police who
hold that it is almost physical impos-
sibility to have committed q crime in
that section.
Yesterday Scott and Detective Mahoney
made round of the various garages in
Chester where Landaw was well known.
No trace OF him could be found however.
An investigation at the various hospitals
failed to disclose any mixing as to his
whereabouts.
Landaw has been known by Scott for
the past seven years. The missing man,
according to Scott, was not Of laxative
disposition and seldom had much to saw.
He and Scott had worked together before.
Scott said today that he had no interest
in any of the automobiles, but that his
interest in the garage business was to look
after repairs, which he shared with Lam
daw
Arthur W. K. Wyatt, proprietor of the
Hotel Stoeckle, could not be seen today
as he has gone TO Philadelphia 1t is not
known whether his trip has an connection
with the disappearance OF Landaw.
Landaw made his home with Mrs
William Stetter, POS East Fifth street
Inquiry at that place today disclosed no
information, as no one answered knocks
upon the door. Landaw is about ~
years old and during the war was in the
aviation service, being located at Mime
apolis. Prior to that he worked for
Cahill 4 CO., local Dodge agents. Upon
his return from the army he engaged in
business with Scott at tie Hotel Stoeckle
garage.
