GLADYS LUKE FAILS 10 j IDENTIFY EITHER SUSPECT Belgian* Mun Who Attacked Her—Pair Admit Criminal Record Boasts of attacks 'on women, and of their reputations a* general "bad men” in Belgium, whence they came, two year* ago, led to the arrests ot Theophile Van Haverbeke, 43 years old, of No. 1318 Hurlbut-ave., and lus younger brother, Alberick, living the same address. Tuesday morning, both men were taken before little Gladys Luke, victim of a recent brutal attack, bill she could not identify either. The police, however, regard the arrest of the brothers as a worthy piece of work. Immigration Inspector Frick has taken charge of the men, and both will probably ,be deported. Theophile formerly lived at No. COO !lotcomb-ave.. only a few doors from the Luke home at No. 722 Holcomb, and when he dropped a remark that "they will never get the fellow tha% did up that Luke girl,” the informa tion reached Deputy Sheriff Henry Van Slambrouck, who Immediately communicated with the police. Doth brothers had boasted of thilr wild careers In Belgium. Theophile admitted to Detectives Brooks aud Seymour that they were both fugitives from justice, having tied from ingelmunater, Belgium, while out on ball, awaiting the ap peal of a ease against them for at tack the wife of a saloonkeeper, and breaking up the saloon furniture, when the crime was discovered. The} had been convicted, and sentenced lo serve three years, Theophile said, when they appealed the case, and skipped. He says he had been ar rested 15 times for felonious assault, and disorderly conduct In Belgium, and had several several times. His brother, he said, has served nine dif ferent terms for similar offenses. The attack on the saloonkeeper's wife, Theophile said, occurred on the day of the funeral of Theophile’s mother. Coming to America, they roomed in the home of Camille Viaene, No. 626 Holoomb-ave. .Shortly after their ai rlval, Viaene was told that Theophile had attempted to attack both Mrs. Viaene and her little daughter. The enraged husband and father attacked Van Haverbeke. and gave him a ter rible beating. Theophile admits this. Detectives Brooks and Seymour and Deputy Van Slambrouck took the sus pects to *the Luke home. Tuesday morning. The little girl, who is now abla to sit up, carefully scrutinized the men, but said that neither of them was her assailant. She continues to talk about Harry Le Roy, now serv ing a 90-day term as a disorderly per son. She says he looks more like her assailant than anyone who has yet been brought before her, though alio was unable to positively identify him. Detectives Brooks and Seymour are still trying to locate some cloth ing which Le Roy left In a freight car, on the day after the attack on the little girl. Le Roy admitted changing his own clothes, in a box car, for some which he say* a farmer gave Mm. car is somewhere on the main line, having been moved from the sidetrack on which It lay the day after the Luke assault.
