ed room.
The aged mother Of Miss Pulwitt,

against hope. Although comforted
and encouraged by another daughter,
who accompanied Mrs. Pulwitt here,
the mother anxiously eyes the tele-
phone, whose ring may bring news
Of life or death.
Mrs. Pulwitt prefers to believe that
her daughter is i'll in a hospital, but
police are unable to strengthen this
hope.
Miss Pulwitt left her work at the
Census Bureau, Sixth street and
Missouri avenue northwest, at 4:15
o'clock on the afternoon of Febru-
airy 13.

choked, beaten, and thrown into the
cell, where he was locked up.
