 Throughout last night organized searching parties secured nearby woods looking for the same girl, who two years ago quietly slipped away from St. Lawrence university, N. T., and for four months eludcd police until she came home of her own volilion.

BOTTLES CAP0NE FACES L0NG' TERM
''SCarlace AIS" Brother Found
 Guilty Of Income Tax Fraud

Chicago, April 26 R)-Another of the Capones has heard a jury brand him guilty"
 Ralph, Bottles in gangland ar got. and eldest of the younger brothers of "Scarface AL" stood be- fore Federal Judge James H. Will kerson's bench yesterday and heard himself convicted of violating the income tax law.
 Guilty on all seven counts of the indictment, the jury found; chief of which was the one charging Bot tles' with making false statements in an offer of compromise.
 In sentencing the younger Capone on May Is. if the formal plea for a new trial is denied, Judge Will kersen under the law can impose prison term of 42 years by making the sentences on each of the seven counts run consecutively.
 Custom in the past, however. has been to impose sentence on the ma jor infractioD-in Capone's case, his false testimony in the compromise offer. The penalty for this is 10 years and s10,o0O fine. Pending sen tcnce, Capone is at liberty on bonds of s25oO0.
 Drive on Tax Niolators The verdict against Capone is the first major result of the govern ment's drive against income tax vio- lators in Chicago. Others to come up for trial arc Frankie Lake and Terry Druggan. brewery owners and gangland gentlemen
 Bottles" is the reputed oversccr of the Caponc interests" in Cicero, one of the famiy's suburban baili- wicls, best known of which is the Cotton club.
 The younger Capone, however, portrayed himself as an "insolvcnt race horse man" whose sole assets consisted of a half interest in two horses. He was virtually pennilcss" when he made his compromise offer of s1,o00 to settle s13,500 tax bill.
 Tnsolvency" Proved False
 Then the government put Capone Ion the spot" They found that he had deposited nearly s2,000,000 in seven banks from 1924 to 1929; they showed the jury he had s25,000 on deposit when he made the compro mise offer; they placed saloonkecp CTS on the witness stand who swore they paid Bottles" s55 barrel for beer; they produced evidence pur- porting 10 show profits from vice and gambling resorts and from race books.
 It took the jury three hours and 20 minutes to decide for the gov ernment.
 Ralp's conviction makes the sec ond against the Capones within lit tie more than a week. In Miami, Fla, where "Scarface Al' has open cd his Palm Island home, a still younger brother. Albert, was scn- tcnced to six months in jail on q technical vagrancy charge. This is being appealed.
