room, crying and sobbing. The sheriff
escorted her to an adjoining room.
where che fell on the floor, frothing at
the mouth. A recess was then taken

which she said Foley raised ever his
head and threatened her with. 1t was
at this point that Mrs. Hartley began to
cob and rush from the court room. Her
hysterical sobs could be plainly heard in
the court room.
The important part of the testimony

follows:
"Mrs. Hartley" inquired Attorney
Woodburn. isn't this the reason you
shot Mr.. Foley? When he stated that
be would 60 to Salt Lake and fix the
papers, was it not because he refused tc
sign the paper right then that you shot
him !"
The witness replied very vehemently,
"No, sir; it was not. / shot him be-
cause he struck me and said he could
get men to perjure themselves for 500.
and realizing that he was driving me to
desperation, / shot him. That was the
last indignity he subjected me to. I

WEBSTER, Mass, Sept. 14.-Ferdinand
Ward, the ex-bsnker who is charged
with the attempted abduction of his TO-
year-old son, was seen by reporter to

affair. He stated that while he was in
Sing Sing his wife made q will bequeath-
ing her entire estate to thsir son Clar-

as guardian OF the child.
Before Wards release Mrs. Ward
died, and Wards brother being ON an
extended European tour. the property
went into the hands Of the public ad-
ministrstor, who Immediately named
F. l. Green of Thompson, Conn, as
guardian, allowing him about $4,000 q
year for the boys's support and educa-
ton. Upon his release from Sing Sing,
Ward was notified by Green that he might
have possession OF the boy, but he was
not then situated so he could get him a
suitable home. Later, however. whea
he had settled in Brooklyn, where he is
now employed as an accountant, he sent
for his son, and Green fatty refused to
give up the boy. Ward has made re-
peated attempts to secure Green's con-
sent, but failed, and being determined
to get the child in his own hands, he
planned and helped to execute the ab-
ductien, which will give him what he
claims is the legal right Of guardianship
Of his own son.

over $75, 900 at the time Of Mrs. Wards
death. WAS placed in control of the Hol-
land Trust company OF New York. and

THE ABDUCTION.

Details OF the kidnapping and Recap
ture of tho Ward BOY.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. Sept. 14.-Sheriff
Joseph O. Love took a prominent part
in regsining possession Of the Ward boy,
who has been for some years under the
care Of his uncle. R. E. Green Of Thomp-
son, Conn.,, where he was placed ON the
death OF his mother, Mrs. Ward. 1t is
known that fortune of about $50. 900
was bequeathed to the boy, or held in
trust for him from the estate of his
mother. Ferdinand Ward has been
trying to get possession of the boy. Last
night Ward went to Webster, in COM
psny with an accomplice. and recured
rooms at the hotel. He took team,
and with his companion as driver, went
to Thompson, Conn.,, on a prospecting
tour. Nothing was accomplished, how
ever, on this trip. and they returned to
Webster to pass the night.
This morning the man who was with
Mr.. Ward hired team again and took q
Webster man for Q drive. They went
again to Thompson. There they found
the boy, Clarence Ward, in school.
Wards accomplice secured an interview
with the young fellow and told him his
father was waiting to have a chance to
talk with him. Either by the boy e
consent or force he was placed in the
carriage and WAS taken by the two men
from the school in the direction of Web.
ster.
Mr.. Green, the boys uncle. started In
pursuit. The race to Webster was @
close one, and Sheriff Love met the two
parties not far from the town. He al
lowed the kidnapping party to pass him
but as he learned from the pursuers the
nature OF the chase, he at once turned
about and joined the pursuit. In Web
ster the boy and his captors were found
at the Joslyn house, where the team hai
been put into the stable. The boys
captor, whose name is unknown, hat
taken him to room in the hotel. Mr.
Green attempted to take possession o.
the boy and take him back home, bu
the csptor objected, end q struggle en-
sued.
Sheriff Love, who was waiting in tn,
corridor, heard the sound Of the etruggl,
and went at once to the room. He de
manded that the man who held posses
sion Of Clarence Ward produce the paper
he had to show his right to the boy. Th,
man stated he had none. but that Fer
dinand Ward would coon appear will
papers showing his right. Sheriff Low
ct once said that until these papers wer,
produced the boy must remain in tn,
possession of his uncle, Mr.. Green.
II was found Ferdinand Ward ha,
been consulting local lawyer and get
ting out papers of habeas corpus. Whel
! it was found that Mr.. Green had takel
the boy across the line into Connecticut
Ward soon left the place. Where he ha
gone is not known. There was no at
tempt made to arrest him, because th
officers did not feel sure he had no rig
to the child, and under the circum
stances it would perhaps be hard t
prove the crime of abduction.
