 to take them into custody to-day.
 Immediately after making this an- nouncement Edwards boarded a train for Boston, where 1t was be- lieved he sought one of the two men. The district attorney refused to re- veal his purpose for going to Bos- ton, other than to say that he would have a definite announcement to
 make later.
 Miss Faithful, District Attorney Edwards contended, was slain in New York city and her body placed in an automobile and taken to Long Beach. There, he charged the two
 men placed it in boat. went some
 distance out to sea and threw 1t overheard.
 One of the men suspected by Ed wards was said to be an important politician in New York city. He would not indicate whether the other man resided here or in Massachu- setts.
 The men whose arrests are planned some time to-day, accord ing to Edwards, were seen in the company of Miss Faithful after she left her Greenwich village home at 12 St Luke's Place, three doors from the home of Mayor James J. Walk CT, Friday morning.
 Announcement that the young woman's slayers were known came after an investigation which Sin- cluded a three-hour conference with Stanley E. Faithful. stepfather of
 Miss Faithful, Mrs Helen Faithful. her mother, and sister, Elizabeth. Members of the family doubted the theory the young woman might have committed suicide. They said she had no possible reason for want ing to end her life and was in the best of spirits when she left home. It was believed that Miss Faith full may have met the man whom
 District Attorney Edwards is seek ing in Massachusetts during her school days. She attended Brookline
 high school and later attended the Rogers Hall School of Lowell, Mass, where she was captain of the swim ming team, she recently had re. turned from her eighth trip to Eu- rope.
