At the time the affidavit was made It I?
said that Dr. Moore was .in Ohio.
It is claimed that he had left, the State
for the purpose of defrauding his" cr?dl
ters. and that he ' was selling his
property for this purpose".'"'upon Tus re?
turn Dr. Mooro denied all the-charges,
that had beon lodged jtgalnst'. him. .At a

Moore moved to have the attachment pro

the atrldavit, upon which they were?
made, was false and mado without just
cause, and with intpnt to injure the

The move was granted by Judge Allen,
and Boon afterwards Dr. Moore paid the

NO TIDINGS
FROM WENTZ
His Father Denies That He Has
Received a Letter From
His Son.
(Special to The Tlmes-Dlspatch.)
BRISTOL,, TBNN., Nov. 0.?The mys?
tery surrounding tho disappearance of
tSdward Wentz, the young millionaire,
continues to be a puzzling affair.
Dr. and Mrs, Wentz, the aged parents
ol the missing man, arrived In Bristol
this afternoon on their way back to Phil?
adelphia, after three weeks of waiting
for tidings from their boy. Thoy etudl
ously avoided reporters, the hotel clerks
where they stopped having received In?
structions to report them "not in."
Dr. Went? was seen In the depot watt?
ing room, where he arrived a few min?
utes In advance of the train on which
he and Mrs. "Wenta were to depart for
Philadelphia,
He was' seemingly absorbed In a news
Taper, and did not want to see reporters.
The only statement made by him was In
reply to the qeustlon as to whether ho
had received a letter from his missing
son. He said he had not.
A friend of the family who conversed
with D. B. Went? yesterday confirms the
report that the family received the $100,
00ft proposition to tlnd Edward Wentz,
but states that after repeated confer?
ences with the man, the conclusion had
I een reached that he was a ehapi, and
only sought money under the pretensa
that so muoh would be necessary to prop?
erly conduct the negotiations.
The family Ib still Inollned to cling to
the abduction theory, while the missing
man's mother cherish?? It as her only
hope, reading with a hopeful Interest
everything the newspapers have to say
in support of that theory. ,
