I i1 Page Six PARALLEL TO FRANKS CASE NEW YORK!. July 16. Michael Courtney, 71, was today Identified as the man who Bought to have Prancla McPonnel, 7, go with him on Monday aftornoon, a few hours before the boy was strangled to death In a clump of tall grass In Staten Island. The Identification was made at St. Oeorge, Staten Island, police headquarters by Edward Dor.ovan, a playmate of the slain boy. Courtney la an Inmate rf the city poor farm at New Springfield, Staten Island. At the same time Captain of De tectives Ernest Von Welgner, In charge of the Investigation into the boy's death, announced he found a small handkerchief In Courtney's pocket which the mother of the dead boy said belonged to her nelce and which Francis may have been using. Two detectives apprehended Courtney this morning when they saw him acting In an unusual man ner In Port Richmond. BODY FOUND TUESDAY ' PORT RICHMOND, Staten Is land, N. Y., July 16. The mutilat ed body.ot 8-year-old Francis Mac- Donald, son ot a policeman, was found Tuesday evening lying hid den under weed and grass in a clump of woods a quarter ot a mile from his home. The child, who had been strangled, disap peared Monday. Police declare that the boy was murdered by a degenerate. The theory is borne out by the report of a neighbor, who saw the child headed for the woods, , and who told the police that he had later seen a man of about 60 or 60 years old, muttering and mumbling to himself, follow the same path into the underbrush. i The spot where the body was found is within a mile of the .road on which Mrs. Maud Bauer was slain. Within two hours after the dis covery of the boy's body. District Attorney Fach and Judge Joseph B. Malloy had sent a request to Police Commissioner Enrlght of New York city for 250 plainclothes men to scour Staten Island tor trace of the degenerate murderer. The whole Island was thrown into a state of frenzied, Indigna tion and many unofficial poBses were being organized TueBday ujght to aid In the manhunt Found Under Mound When Francis fulled to return home Monday his father asked the police to Bond out a general alarm for him. Tuesday ' numerous search parties scoured the lonely woods. It was just before dusk that Lester Woods and Henry La Vernio, who wore searching the woods together with Hoy Scouts and police, came upon the corpse. They had come upon a spot where the lush grass bordering the pathway had been crushed down as If a body had been dragged through It. Following this trail they came upon a large rock, about which was a cluttering of newspapers. Near the rock was a suspicious mound of mould ering weeds and grass. They brushed aside this debris. Beneath it, face downward, lay the body of the child. He was nudo to the walnt. The shoes and stockings had boen stripped off. The child's knlc.korbockers had been used to throttle him. The hands were torn, and the face was blue and covered with scratches. Like Franks Case The bov'fl small hands wapa Ma. colored with bruises and torn as ,if by the nails of a frenzied as sailant. The face, too, was torn and clotted with blood-streaks. There were other evidences of perverted violence which led the police at once to compare the revolting mystery with tle death of 14-year-old Robert Frunks In Chicago. Oeorga Stearns, a notghbor of the MacDonald's, Is the last per- . son known to have soon the hoy alive. At that time the child, romping gaily from the front door of his home, started un the nath toward tho woods,' which wero used by boys of the neighborhood as a community playground. 8tranger Followed Victim Dtearns remembered that a stranger, shabbily dressed, had louowen tne 1h(1 Into the woods, about 30 foot behind. This man, boarlng all the an fi,t?ances of a degenerate, shnmb od -in, keeping the snmo distance between himself and the boy, his snirty eyes turning now and then to see it anyone were watching him. Stearns said ho recalled these facts after tho discovery of . the corpse, but hnd paid no atten tion to tnem at the time. Within an hour after the dls. covery of the boy's body Tuesday night, a crowd of about 1500 peo ple nan roacnen the scene and an Investigation was in full Bwing. Fouaht for Life Detectives found signs of a strugglo noar the rock and In the soft earth were Innumerable foot prints, mano by the heavy shoes of a man, and here and there tho Imprint of the tiny shoe of young xnncuuuaiu. SI earns told tho police he had nrd no screams and It Is the fflclal theory that tho bov was pounced upon and gagged before the struggle began. There was every Indication, the eeiecuves said, that the boy had maae a Bavage right for life. slcX:lctt4tc4 T0 GUARD SUBSCRIBERS If your paper la not delivered He by 0 o'clock every uigbt please aV telephone 1200 before 7:30 P. s M.

Leopold, Jr., who now-are awaiting: trial on charges of kidnaping- and killing1 13-year-old Robert Franks, had not only calmly considered using- Tommy Loeb, 10-year-old broth er of Richard, as their victim, but also had even considered the pos sibility of attacking- their . own fathers. The youths compromised and agreed to the kidnaping- and killing of the Franks boy, it was declared. After' the subjects of the parents had been discussed, the possibility ot attacking- Mr. Loeb also was dropped. It was reasoned, according- to he story, that Mr, Loeb was ill and confined to his bed at home. That, they are said to have agreed, would have made It very difficult to attack him. The discussion regarding th pos sibility of an attack on the . elder Leopold finally reached a point where It also was dropped because of the lack of an opportunity to collect ransom, a necessary part of the thrill .program. Mrs. Leopold Is dead and there are few other near relatives who might have been Induced to part with a large sum as ransom. ' The boys, according to this new development finally decide they would have to use a fchtld In their scheme, although the thrill would not be so great. .
