MYSTERY OF TAXICAB
SIX PERSONS INVOLVED CHAMPION SWIMMER DISAPPEARS Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. PARIS, February 7. (Received February S, at 1.4 S a.in.) Six persons are now entangled in the mystery of the taxicab. It seems that the second owner of the taxi also vanished with a fare named Houeaud, a champion swimmer. Moreover, Boucand was violently in love with an attractive widow, Madame Yvonne Brunot, who has been missing from homo since Friday. Boucaud’s pocket book was recovered from the river, but the police refuse to believe that a champion swimmer would choose that method of suicide. [A previous message from Parks stated: A modest taxicab is earning a sinister reputation, it having been attended by tragic happenings, despite changes of owners. Last June, when it was used as a private car, a chauffeur named Soulle was shot by an architect’s clerk, who was recently sentenced to dentil. Now the same cab lias been found abandoned on a lonely roadside with a pool of blood on the lloor. It is assumed Unit the driver, oim Cadoriii, was killed and his body thrown in the river.]
