LANDED SAFELY,
The Murderer Placed in "a Washington
Police Cell.

In this city news of the action of the
police spread with lightning rapidity, and
it soon became generally known that Ford
would reach here on the train due at l. %
This attracted large crowd of people to
the depot, and Others who feared he would
be taken from the train and driven to Lieu
tenant kelly's police station, assembled in
front Of the station and remained there
until nearly the hour of midnight when
they learned of what had been done and
dispersed. Inspector Ho.iinberger had ar
ranged that the train should stop at the
f street crossing, and the prisoner be
driven, to headquarters without stopping
at thef station
Lieutenant Kelly ard q strong guard of
policemen were on hand with the patrol
wagon. Several detectives and police of
ficials were there to greet the prisoner and
see that he was we'll cared for. They
did not fear that the citizens would make
any attempt to take the law in their own
hands. but they were prepared for any
emergency.
The officers reached the railroad crossing
long enough ahead Of the train to attract
attention, and quite a large crowd gath
stepped from the car TO the wagon. From
there he was driven to headquarters, where
Inspector Hcllinberger, Chief Clerk Sylves-
ter and the detectives, as well as a number
OF newspaper men. were in waiting. Mayor
BurleiSh was with them. The crowd at
the railroad crossing had been anything
out orderly. some naQ Calleu Tor a rope,
others for a knife and some one shouted
Hang him.
At police headquarters the prisoner was
fully identified as Ford. and he admitted
his identity. as he had to Detective Board
man at Harpers Ferry.
Those who were en- duty there had an
idea that he would weaken and make a
full confession. but this he did not do.
Inspector Holiinbergar exhibited the re-
volver found near the scene of the MUIR
der and asked MIN how long he had owned
it.
Il never had tn" pistol" was his rc-
Spouse.
He was told that he had been shooting
liz the country ard he said that h. did
that shooting with rife. He further de-
clared that he had never owed pistol
Then the inspector questioned him con-
corning how he mad spent his time since
Sunday and he said that he had not beer,

go to Sparrows Point, Baltimore, to work

The man who was standing on the ledge

graphed This Morning.
This has been wretched day for Irving
l.. Ford. From early morning right along
he has been subjected to rigid invcstiga-
ton. which must have had for him the
tortures of the inquisition. He was thor
oughIy cowed and he seemed to realize
fully the position in which he is placed.
AT an early hour he was taken from the
sixth precinct station, where he was con-
fined all night, to police headquarters.
There he kept for time, sur
rounded by a number of the members OF
the police and detectives of the city, vino
kept close watch on him and sought to
get some discriminating admiss from
him. In this they were unsuccessful.
Ford strenuously denied his guilt of Elsie
Kreglos murder, and insisted that he was
nowhere near the kreglo house last Mon
day afternoon.
when the patrol wagon which brought
Ford to headquarters drove TIP in front of
the District building there Was already a
big crowd gathered on the chance of catch
ing glimpse CT the man who is charged
with one of the foulest crimes that has
ever stained the history of the capital. 1t
was but a few minutes before the crowd
was vastly increased, and the greatest
pressure was brought upon the officials
to allow the curious admission to the little
room into which Ford had been taken
AS quickly as possible Ford had been hur-
ried back into the detectives Office and
the door closed. but II was impossible to
keep out every one. anu in a couple of
minutes the apartment was crowded to

His Escape.
Between the mayor and recorder he
walked to the door of the city jail small
stone structure, and when the mayor re-
leased his hold On the prisoner to open
the door the latter again became a fugitive
and although ne is heavy man. he ran
with the swiftness of deer in the same
fashion as the man had run in the woods
after the crime.
In less time, than it requires to tell the
story Ford reached the trestle along the
Shenandoah river, several bullets from the
mayors pistol beiGg sent after him. These
Ford gave usprfiig from the trestle and
plunged headlong into the river. He waded
out in the direction of the deep water, re-
fusing to heed what was said to him by
the direction ooof athe Virginia shore, the
negro refused to heed the repeated calls
and threats. and when he finally saw that
men were coming for him in boat he
concluded that death in the water would be
far more preferable to what he anticiDat-

Cuatro Cienegas, Mex. March s.
An amateur bull fight took place on
the Ell Rosario Hacienda, south OF
here, Sunday and in the midst of the
performance one ofthe most ferocious
bulls jumped over the frail board rail
that separated the arena from the
spectators. The maddened animal
charged upon the crowd, and before
hey could escape he tossed twenty
or more men, women and children
upon his horns. The bull completed
his bloody work by goring four of his
victims to death, and would have
killed several more had not the
banderileros succeeded in stabbing
the animal to death. Ten persons
were seriouiy injured.
