SENTENCE AWAITS
GLAND TREATMENT
Judge Hopes for Cure to Re-
moue Theft Desire.

Believing that her criminal tendencies
are caused by diseased thyroid glands.
Judge william r. Bayes in Kings County
Court suspended sentence yesterday
upon Mrs. Fannie Liebowitz, 36 years
old of 633 Snediker avenue. who con-
fessed to burglary. The suspended sem
tence was for the purpose of allowing
medical treatment of the glands In her
throat with the hope that with the cur
ing OF her physical ailment her fancy
for theft might vanish. sl
Though Mrs. Liebowitz comes from
a good family and has never been In
want, the police said she had served a
term for burglary in 1911. and In 1914
had been sentenced to Auburn for hve
years for burglary.
Judge Bayes's determination to have
the woman receive medical attention
was based upon a preliminary examina-
ton by DIR. Ernest ". Vaughan, medical
assistant to the Kings County District
Attorney. who said that Mrs. Liebowitz.
though legally sane, was dull mentally
because she Is suffering from hypo-
thyroidism, disease which dries up
certain oils in the thyroid glands. The
d,sea SO rarely manifests itself In GRIM
inal tendencies, DIR. Vaughan said. but
he expressed the opinion that IL she were
treated with thyroid extract by inJec-
ton and otherwise her malady would be
relieved and the chances were her GRIM
inal trend would disappear.

DAUGHTER OF RABBI
FOUND UNCONSCIOUS
n. Y. Girl Picked Up in Auto
mobile Puzzles Officials
in New Haven.

Special Despatch to THE New YoRK HERALD.
NEW HAVEN, June is (Thursday) -
The police Of New Haven were trying
early this morning to solve mystery
in which the central figure Is Ida Gan
quisky, is years old, daughter of Israel
Ganquisky, a rabbi, Of East 115th
street, New York The girl, missing
from her home since o'clock yesterday
morning. was found unconscious in an
automobile few blocks from the Yale
campus at 5 40 O'Clock in the afternoon.
Physicians at st. Raphael's Hospital are
trying to determine whether her condi-
ton is due to narcotics or aphasia.
Rabbi Ganquisky came here with his
wife at midnight and completed the
Identification. Up to that time the New
Haven police had listed the girl as 'un-
known and we're waiting for answers
to alarms sent throughout the Eastern
part of the country to learn from what
city she was missing.
The mystery was complicated further
by the discovery in the pocket Of the
girls coat of a slip Of paper on which
was writSn Sarah Givian, 263 Howard
avenue, New Haven" Sarah Givian
proved to be q relative of the girls
mother.
At :30 yesterday afternoon Everitt
v. Barney, who is employed at the uni
versity, started to enter his automobile.
which was standing in front of his home
at IS Hillhcuse avenue. AS he climbed
into the front seat he noticed the girl
lying at full length on the floor of the
tonneau. He tried to arouse her. and
when he saw that her condition was Sc
rious he drove her to Police Headquar-
ters.
Detectives tried to revive the girl. but
she failed to respond to their efforts. An
ambulance was called. and she was taken
to the hospital There the usual methods
were resorted to- but the physicians fl
nally we're forced to give up.
An examination proved that the girl
had suffered no physical injury and
partly exploded the theory that she had
been drugged and abducted.
At s o'clock the police telephoned the
girls description TO New York, and
few minutes later were notified by tele-
graph that the Ganqusky girl. then
missing from her home since early morn
ing, answered the description. Rabbi
Ganquisky. who was at New York head
quarters awaiting word from detectives
who were searching for his daughter
started for this city with his wife. They
arrived just before midnight and were
taken to st. Raphael's Hospital.
While the parents were in the emer-
Eency ward the girl came out of the
coma for a few minutes. She failed TO
recognize either of them and before they
left was again unconscious.

Time Limit IS FIXED
TOGET KIDNAPPERS
Detectives Expect to Catch
Murderers of VarOtta Boy
in "a Hours.
BLACK HAND IN PANIC
Warn Fiaschetti That He
Will Be Killed if He Does
Not Drop Case.
SEND HIM TWO LETTERS
Assert That Big Man Is In
volved in Plot That Caused
Death Of Child.
SEND HIM TWO LETTERS

The police were confident last night
that the gang which kidnapped and
murdered five-year- Giuseppi Va
rotta would be rounded up within the
next twenty-four hours. Since May "a.
when the boy disappeared from his
home. at 354 East Thirteenth street,
the net gradually has been drawing
closer until detectives working on the
case believe they can lay their hands
on the men who. they say, threw Gfu-
seppi into the river after the first at
tempt at e9tortion resulted in the ar
rest of five of their number.
Evidence that the blackmailers are
in a panic Of fear was seen yesterday
when two BLACK Hand" letters were
received by Detective Sergeant Michael
Fiaschetti. chief Of the Italian squad
IF you love to live lay off, was the
substance Of the threat Fiaschetti got by
special delivery last night Both letters
were mailed at City Hall station and
signed "The Black Hand Gang" They
were in Italian, and the words were
printed to conceal the handwriting.
Those cowards!' - the detective said.
They think they can frighten me.
cannot tell you all I know. but will
say that we expect to- clean up this
case within the next twenty-four hours"
'"The man behind the varotta case is
a big man." the letter continued. 1--WE
warn you to lay off. or we will get you
like they got Lieut.. Petrosin in Italy"
Sergeant Fiaschetti is not worrying
over the threats. but he is not taking
any chances Of being caught off guard.
He has been threatened before on Italian
cases.
No more witnesses were examined in
the District Attorneys Office yesterday.
On the evidence obtained thus far 1t
would be difficult to prove murder was
committed. although the police are sure
of 1t. One theory offered was that the
varotta boy had run away Of his own
accord and that neighbors had taken
advantage of the situation to blackmail
the supposedly rich parents.
The police scout this explanation. The
child was too small, they pointed out, to
wander so far. They believe his abduc-
ters threw him into the Hudson at
Haverstraw. or even further north. on
June 2. the day five men were arrested
at the varotta home for completely In
the plot The body was recovered last
Sunday and had been in the water some
time.
Five more men have been arrested as
material witnesses and for carrying pis-
tolls in the vicinity of the Varotta home
They will be held in expectation of fur
ther developments.

Too Much Wages

are damage and danger to the
one who receives them.
With rising prices during the
war, naturally the high cost of
living necessitated an advance
in all wages, which was cheer
fully granted.
Now we read in the newspa-
pers of a number of instances
where the employees have
unwisely struck" and left their
places rather than reduce their
wages, notwithstanding the
lower selling prices of food,
clothing, furniture and shoes
that are manifest.
How can prices ever go down
if the United States. Govern
ment does not speedily abolish
the special taxes on many ar
ticles and on sales prices and
If war wages in production con-
tinue to rule?
The buying public for years
submitted to high prices.
Let us all play the game
fairly and get prices down and
keep them down.
