Mauch Chunk Chief of Police Frank McGinley is of the impression that Billy McFadden was kidnapped rather than drowned in the Lehigh River. He believes the kidnapper hurled Billy McTague's body into the river and then disappeared with McFadden. The chief said a thorough search of the river was made, but failed to reveal the body of the missing youth. Yesterday, the ninth day when the water is supposed to give up the dead, caused the searchers to be on the alert, but the body so far has failed to come to the surface.
