       Two PDF's entitled Yungstreet Andersen, the name of a man found
       in the NY World by Youngstreet Franzoi.... probably no relation,
       but you never know : )..........

       I know that some American newspapers will change the name of a
       person for liability reasons or what-not, as in the case of the
       Brame story of the Ripper in Chile where, in the Galveston Daily
       News, John Anderson became Sanderson, etc. But New York papers
       don't seem to do that. So this man arrested for drunkenness
       called himself Yungstreet! He can't even say his first name
       while drunk?
       With a name like Yungstreet, it sounds like he could come from
       TO!!

       Yungstreet Anderson was found on a thread of NY World articles
       on another site. This was during research on the candidate, for
       George Damon’s hired-hand Frank, named Frank Anderson.
       We all mostly agree now that “Frank” was Carrie’s killer. He had
       the key to the room, etc.
       So I can give you a rundown on why Frank Anderson makes a good
       candidate for “Frank” besides the coincidence of another 30 year
       old Swedish sailor with the same last name being arrested who
       said he was at the Hotel the night of the murder.

       I guess I have to get the failed the "line-up" possibility out
       of the way first. Was Yungstreet taken before witness Mary
       Miniter to see if she could ID him as C. Kniclo? It doesn't look
       that way unless she was being kept at Police Headquarters but I
       think she was kept in the Tombs.
       [QUOTE]...A reporter for THE WORLD, who went aboard the Colorado
       last night, found Rossmissell in a very uneasy frame of mind. He
       said that it had occurred to him that he answered the
       description of the murderer, and added that on the night of the
       murder he was aboard the ship. He is under police surveillance
       and is to be brought face to face with Mary Miniter today.
       The number of persons who visited the Morgue yesterday and asked
       permission to look at the body of old "Shakespeare" was very
       large. The attendant, Mr. Finnegan, denied permission to many,
       some of whom were from the Fourth Ward. During the afternoon a
       man who said he was John F. Flower, of No. 849 East One Hundred
       and Sixty-first street, came in and said he had employed old
       "Shakespeare" as a servant two years ago. She told him then that
       she had married Charles Brown, captain of a ship, but that he
       had died. He had not seen her for nearly two years.
       ANDERSEN'S STRAIGHT STORY.
       Among the prisoners taken to the Seventh Precinct Police Station
       yesterday afternoon was a man about thirty years old, who had
       been arrested on a charge of being drunk and disorderly on the
       street.
       When arraigned at the bar his appearance, features, height, age
       and dress so closely resembled the description of the East River
       Hotel murderer that the officer on duty began to question him.
       He replied to the questions promptly, and although under the
       influence of liquor quickly appreciated the fact that he was
       suspected of being the murderer of the old woman. "I am not in
       any way connected with that crime," he said, "but I did spend a
       night at the hotel where the murder was committed - the same
       night the woman was killed." I went there with a female
       companion, hired a room and we slept there. I left the next
       morning, and knew nothing of the crime until I saw it in the
       papers." The man gave the name of Yungstreet Andersen, thirty
       years old, a Swede, and said he was a seafaring man with no home
       in this city.
       He was sent to Police Headquarters and after being examined by
       Inspector Byrnes, was returned to the station-house, where he
       was released yesterday, after being fined for intoxication.

       She, along with six others, occupied the seven cells at the
       precinct station. ( NY Evening World, April 25th)
       The World article you brought up has him at the station on the
       26th.
       In addition, Byrnes cleared him.  She could have been on the
       Moon and they'd take potential candidates for C. Kniclo to her
       or her to them. Her location is irrelevant.
       Andersen is just one in a litany of men brought before Miniter
       for identification purposes.
       Byrnes' dismissal of Russmissell and Andersen is satisfactory
       for me, IMHO.  They dragged Miniter all over the area for days
       looking for C. Kniclo.  Hard to believe they'd skip over
       Andersen.

       This is from the NY Evening World, April 25th...I overlooked it
       this morning
       List of detainees :

       So, it is probable that Miniter was in the Tombs on April 25th
       and most likely on the 26th.  If Yungstreet Andersen raised
       sufficient interest as a potential suspect, I think it is safe
       to say that Miniter was taken in to the 7th Precinct to give him
       the once over.
       I'm curious as to why you pursue the theory that Andersen was
       'Frank'.
       Because Andersen didn't have the key, didn't work in Cranford, &
       wasn't in Cranford on the day of the murder ( 24th).  Pursuing
       him, your prerogative of course, runs contrary to the position
       that you've maintained that the key was necessary to open the
       door of room 31 since Andersen didn't have it.   Andersen
       probably didn't know Cranford from cranberries.

       Frank Anderson arrived and deserted on the 20th and would have
       left NY sometime after the murder. He’s next registered in the
       Dreadnaught Seamen’s Hospital in London the following year.
       I don’t believe anything George Damon says except that he picked
       up a Scandinavian sailor named Frank and that he left one day,
       leaving behind the key to Room 31 and bloody clothes.
       I can leave Yungstreet Anderson out of the equation, even if I’m
       not convinced he “passed” a “line-up” and list reasons why I
       have Frank Anderson as Frank.

       Sorta makes zero sense for Andersen-as-murderer to return to the
       area, doesn't it ?
       Sort of makes less sense for risking being placed before Miniter
       who would have remembered him instantly.

       Actually, this is the seminal part ( believable or not) of what
       Damon said in 1901....and what had Ali released from prison.
       Anything else he said can be and will be scrutinized....but
       you're claiming that the murderer left the key to room 31 in
       Cranford.  That's cool.
       It also gets Yungstreet off the hook.  Not only was the Danish
       Farmhand there on the 24th ( according to Damon) but unless he
       was retarded, he didn't go back to
       Manhattan and get drunk.

       How does being in New Jersey on the 24th get the Farmhand off
       the hook or get Yungstreet off the hook for being the Farmhand
       and/or the murderer?
       It should be noted that we’re talking about 3 characters - Frank
       (the Farmhand/sailor), Frank Anderson (the sailor) and
       Yungstreet Anderson (the sailor). If they’re not the same person
       as I’m theorizing, then they’re either 3 or 2 different people.
       Yungstreet and Farmhand Frank were by evidence or confession at
       the scene of the crime but you can divide the 3 up into 2 anyway
       you want.
