Chicago Poison Suspect Writes New York Police a Note.

A penciled note, purporting to have been written Saturday night and dropped into a mail box at the Grand Central station by Jean Crones, the fugitive chef accused of having attempted to poison the guests at a dinner in honor of Archbishop Mundelein in Chicago, vtas received by the police Sunday. The note, which was without envelop or stamp, was addressed to the “Chief of Police, New York.” The note said Crones was sorry to be obliged to leave the good city' of New York for his safety’s sake, but added: “You’re really not clever at all. Your detectives are looking for me and no one can catch me.” The Grand Central station has been under surveillance several days but the police there have declared that no one resembling Crones had been seen.
