NEW YORK, Jan. Sit was an ex-
traordinary story that was told by Hat
tie Price. a pretty, oAriS-eyed young
woman, eighteen years old, who live at
No. 1o1 Hudson street, Hoboken. with
her stepfather, John Loclston. In the
forenoon Mr.. Lockton, with Hattie's
brother and sister, went 10 church. lesy-
ing Hattie alone in ths house Upon
their return they found that the door
through which they usually entered
their apartments was boited upon the
inside. An entrance was effected
through another door andon entering the
bedroom they discovered the young Wo-
man bound 10 bedstead and gagged.
A silk four-in-hand neclStie had been
stuffed into her mouth, and about TWO
hundred feet OF clothesllne was wound
about her body and around the ped
stead. She was quickly released ana
fold her stepfather that a tall. SHINY
built man had entered the rooms, point
ed a pistol at her and Demanded what
money there was in the house. She got
SIS that her parents had put away IN u
hat box and gave It to the man. He then
bound her, gagged her, and left the
house.
After telling this story Hattie tainted.

police were notified. and Detectives Nell

tectlve Nelson, who was somewhat sus-
piclous OF the girls story, proceeded 10
make a careful examination OF the
premises, and upon turning up the BED

mattresses and the springs.
