Details of the kidnaping were given by Clark yesterday morning. He said Low, who comes Into Windsor from London each Saturday morning, was forced to the side of the road this side of Thamesville.

It was dusk and he could not see his captors, who were in a large 6.1 "Mm Ttix Jttfij 1EGEL(S END SEEN NEAR Continued from Page One. 1 touring car.

Rollo Hart, his ion, of 6395 Kp-worth boulevard, yesterday discounted rtports that Hart was "broke," saying his money was widely Invested and he merely was short of cash. At any rate it was learned Hart had discharged a number of servants, had accumulated many unpaid bills and Inadvertently or otherwise had written checks which were returned for lack of funds. In addition to this, family jewelry to the value of J10.0O0 is reported to have been pawned or otherwise disposed of. If pawned It will be hard to trace, Hoffman said, as probably it was disposed of under an assumed name.

Baby Taken by Hart's Daughter. The six weeks old baby girl, Nyle, which lay on a couch in the bedroom during the fusillade of shots Saturday night, yesterday was taken in charge by Mrs. Arvilla Wilson, Hart's eldest daughter. The rival theories, that the Harts were murdered and that Burr Hart took his own life, each gained partisans among detectives yesterday. Patrolman George Hubert, of precinct No.

3. who raised the dog, Kumas. that Hart owned, said he was sure no stranger could have gained entrance to the house without discovery. The animal may have been gun-shy, Hubert admitted, but he was devoted to Mrs. Hart and a faithful watch dog.

The suicide, if it was a suicide, was carefully planned and deliberately executed to deceive police into thinking it a murder, Hoffman said. Why else was the back door and the kitchen door propped open? he asked. Why else were 10 shots fired, eight more than necessary? Trace Course of Bullets. Examination of bullet holes yesterday disclosed the six shots fired Police Believe Capture of Kidnapers Would Aid Solving of Employe' Death. The attempt of gangsters to levy a large sum of money from Sam J.

Low. wealthy Windsor liquor exporter and head of the Erie Transit company, as reported to the police yesterday, may furnish the beginning of a trail leading back to solution of the case of James A. Kennedy, whose murder more than four months ago is still a mystery. Kennedy, a former employe of Low's firm, was slain on the eve of a royal commission sitting at Ottawa at which he wan to have given evidence on liquor export operations. His body was discovered May 5 in a lonely wood in Erie township south of Monroe.

Mich. The investigation by police on both sides of the river was fruitless. Might Lead to Solution. A theory that Is being considered in police circles now is that the men who attempted to levy on Low, if not themselves guilty of the Kennedy murder may have intimate knowledge of the circumstances surrounding it and that their discovery may lead to a solution of the former mystery. Through the actions of two Detroit detectives, trace of the persons Clark.

When released, he was or-dered to remain quiet In his machine 15 minutes before removing the blindfold. Clark said yesterday he was pos- i Itlv Low's captors were members of a gang of Detroit hijackers. He said his client had several times received threats, and both he and Low were told their fate was doom-! ed if the money was not forthcom- i ing.

Clark said Low had when writing the notes, that one letterhead was from Benton Har-, bor, and the other was sta-' tionery from the Statler hotel in Detroit. 1 That was the only clue. Clark i said, to the Identity of the kidnap-I era, for Low had been unable to see their faces.

Fingerprints on the .45 caliber revolver found beside Hart, as he sprawled on the landing of the stair after the shooting, apparently are those of Hart, Hoffman said.

Whether they are will be known positively today. This was the gun with which Mrs. Hart was killed as she slept in her bed. Finger prints on the .38 caliber revolver with which Hart was killed were too blurred to identify, Hoffman said. This gun, too, was found lying beside the body of Hart.

Otis Storrer, the house guest of the Harts, who with his wife, Elizabeth, was asleep in a room across the hall from the Hart bedroom at the time the shooting took place, was recalled to police headquarters late yesterday and questioned two hours by Hoffman and Detective Lieutenant John Navarre, at present in charge of the homicide squad. Details Kept Swri-t. He told further details of Saturday evening, how Hart looked and talked, what the movements of the family were, etc. He discussed other matters, but police declined to reveal what they were. The "big deal" Hart went to Cleveland last Thursday to swing was to have been consummated today, It was learned.

It Involved the purchase of property through a mortgage sale and Hart expected to make a deal of money from it. From records already examined by police, Hart was in straitened financial shape, it was said. Whether this was due to his desire to raise a sum of cash to swing the Cleveland deal, or whether the loss of revenue from the Burr Hart apartment, Henry street and Cass avenue, which was padlocked by U. S. authorities for dry law violations, had hit him so hard as to cripple him, could not be deter from the .45 revolver apparently the Erie Transit company and reputed millionaire president of the Carling Brewing company, of London, for $35,000 ransom a week ago, was lost last Wednesday, it became known yesterday.

Ixw was kidnapped September 8 and held prisoner until he following morning. He was released at Erie and Ouellette streets, Windsor, last Sunday morning after being kept blindfolded and shackled to a bed in a lonely cottage in the vicinity of Thamesville, seven hours. He was released by his captors when he promised to obtain the $35,000 ransom through Major J. H. Clark, of Windsor, his attorney.

He was ordered to come to Dringing nim to Detroit for 'safe keeping'" until the money was delivered. This plan was not adopted after Low promised to deliver the ransom money at any spot they designated. Try to Find Cottage. Provincial police yesterday were attempting to locate the cottage In which the Windsor and London millionaire was held prisoner. It believed to be between Klngsvllle Bnd Leamington.

Detroit police officials refused to comment on their part of the investigation. McCarty admitted, however, he had assigned McNally and Bogan to the case and they had reported their failure in locating some of the kidnaping gang. Clark declared before departing to see Attorney General Price, that the lives of Low. Charles Burns, Marco Leon and his own had been threatened by the gang since Low was given his freedom. Clark Is attorney for the Carling Interests and the others are oillcers and stockholders in the Carling concerns.

It was believed Low had left Windsor because of fear for his life. Although unconfirmed. It was reported last night that Low was In seclusion at a friend's home In Windsor and that the house was being guarded by a half dozen provincial detectives. were by a person standing at the side of the bed near the door. One of these struck Mrs.

The others were fired around the room at the floor. These might have been fired at the dog, proponents of the murder theory point out.

That would explain why the last was fired down the stairs, a the dog fled. Assuming that Hart was downstairs when the assassin began shooting in the dark, the intruder would have met him as he came up, after he had emptied the .45 1438 WASHINGTON BOULEVARD, DETROIT Imporltrj or Genlltmtn Wear Webster Hall In Detroit and register.

You imagine such torture that it hard for anyone to advise you. Our method for extracting and fixing teeth painlessly is positive.

In fact it is so sure that we invite you to watch someone else have his teeth ground or drilled without showing the least expression of pain on his face. Seeing is believing, and where there is a pain there is an "ouch." There are no "ouches" here.

But be sure to consider, too, the organization which makes it. The General Electric Refrigerator is the product of fifteen years of research in the laboratories of General Electric. Come in and see the many models. Notice their absolute simplicity. Make comparisons with other refrigerators.

If you write us, we will be glad to send you a booklet which gives complete descriptions of the various models. When you buy an electric refrigerator, do a bit of investigating on your own. Look under the cabinet, look carefully inside it, and, above all things, listen to it. When you look under the cabinet do you find moving parts of machinery or no machinery at all? In the General Electric Refrigerator, you'll notice at once that all the models are up-on-legs. This means an easy job cleaning under them.

And it also means that all the machinery is safely sealed away in the air-tight steel casing which you see on top of the cabinet. Look inside. Is there really ample food space? You will find in the General Electric Refrigerator that the chilling chamber is amazingly com Fried Coney Island Scallop, Sauce Figaro, Chefs Salad, 50c CLASS STARTS TONIGHT 7:00 O'clock Instructor Harry C.
