Bold Attempt to Get Possession

THE GIRLS MOTHER APARTY
The Schemers 0utwitted and the Child
Placed Under Heavy Bonds
Sharp, the Rape Fiend, Held to Answer In
$4,000 Bail-Suit Over a Hotel Lease
General Court News

Della Sbipton. the younger of the two
sisters said to have been debauched by
Mayne, and under which charge that indi-
vidual is now in the county jail awaiting
trial on charge of rape, was placed un-
der $200U bail yesterday afternoon by
Judge Mckinley, at the request of the
district attorneys office. This move was
taken to checkmate the latest effort of
Mayne's friends, who are apparently will
ing t. resort to any means to extricate
him from the very awkward position
whice he now occupies. The actions OF
the fellow Hill have been published, and
that individual having been arrested for
disturbing the peace. it was hoped by the
authorities that the pernicious activity
in Mayne's behalf would be stopped for a
time at least. Late Tuesday night Mr..
Wright, in whose custody the child Della
hipton now is. was notified by telegraph
from San Francisco to be on his guard,
as an emissary OF Mayne had secured an
order from the mother of the Shipton
girls to surrender her, and wasNon the
way to Los Angeles to get the child with
the view of getting her beyond the reach
of the court. so that she could not be
used as witness in the coming trial.
Mr.. Wright at once went to the Florence
home, where little Della had been placed
for safe keeping, and carried her away,
as it was known that Mayne's friends
IN San Francisco had learned where she
was sheltered.
AS was expected, the emissary put in
an appearance yesterday morning in the
.loka
female who gave her name as Mrs. Davis.
She was armed with written order from
the girls mother to the authorities in
structing them to deliver over to the
bearer. Mrs. Davis, her daughter. and
with this document in her possession she
went at once to the Florence home and
demanded the child. Mr.. Armour refus-
ed TO honor the order. and, after some
buster, the woman left, saying that she
would 90 to the district attorneys Office
herself and see what could be zone.
This. however. was only bluff, as she
failed to put in an appearances. Mr.. Ar.
mour promptly notified MIR. Donnell and
steps were at once taken to put the child
under bonds as witness, which was
done as above stated, in the afternoon.
Now if anyone wants the girl they will
have to make a good bond for $4,000 before
they can get possession OF her.
The district attorney is of the opinion
that any means will be resorted to to save
Wayne. The theory is that the wife of
Mayne is the principal agent helping
him. Having got u di;orce, the plan, IL
is alleged, is for the younger girl to be
got out of the way, when Mayne will
marry the elder. Then, when the prose
s s IN IS Sonia way get ria OF S:s Victim
and return to his first wife.
In justice to.the child 1t should be stat
ed that she is anxious to testify against
Mayne and wishes to see him punis he'd
for his crimes.

The Rape Fiend Held in $4,000

James Sharp, the rape fiend, who 80
cruelty abused little Tequena Moore, aged
years, was yesterday examined in the
township court and held to answer in
the sum of $4,000 bail. There was no at
tempt at denial of the offense by the
wretch. who tried to justify his brutal
conduct by insisting that the child made
the first advances to him. In the after
