perilously close today to the most ominous category in police perfect The keenest minds of detective forces In three nations continued to narrow their search for clews refusing to admit in any crime But they were balked temporarily at least by the Tufver-son case which has spread its vague threads from Michigan to New York to England and to Vienna They put together their newest evidence especially from New York sources to narrow down the movements of Ivan Pgderjay who blgamously married Miss Tufver-son They questioned and reques-' tioned Foderjay and Mme Suzanne Ferrand his wife In Vienna where they are held They used trick X-ray lamps on baggage and clothes of the missing woman found in Vienna They sifted the ashes in the incinerator of Miss Tufverson's New York apartment house They sought a mysterious English captain Frederick Davey reported to have disappeared after an acquaintance with Mme They knew only that Agnes Tuf verson a successful corporation lawyer who had been too busy for love in her youth Poderjay in New York last December quarreled with him on the pier from which they were to sail for Europe returned with him to their apartment at 10 and disappeared They believed on the basis of reports today that Poderjay or a man resembling him had bought a black trunk next day and taken it to the apartment They knew that the day after that he took the black trunk to the pier and sailed alone But actually the police could not prove that Miss Tufverson had The facts merely show that she had not been located since Dec 20 Most significant in the case vexing to the police was the lack of a corpus delicti Police are convinced that the strong-willed and capable woman is dead They believe she was murdered But they have no body to prove she is dead They have no evidence that she wua murdered They even be sure they can extradite the clever bigamist Poderjay or Poderzaj from Vienna for questioning Police of the United States and Europe are searching for Agnes Tufvercon missing New York and Detroit lawyer who married Ivan Foderjay Yugoslav cavalryman in New York last December Foderjay Is now under arrest in Vienna Miss clothes were found in his apartment
