Mew York.—The discovery in the
cellar of a ghetto tenement of tha
body of Irving Pickny, four and a
half years old, who was kidnaped 1
nearly four weeks ago, marked the
close of the last of a series of kid
naping mysteries which have stirred
New York in recent years. Within a
period of two months in 1916, Anna
Cohen, four years old, and Charles
Murray, five, were kidnaped in the
east side of the city. Their bodies
were found slashed with knives, un
der stairways in their homes.
