| sions Court. Bench warrants we're sent up to
Rockland county. but the local officials refused
| to give up the prisoners
Each indictment contains three counts.
namely. kidnapping. abduction and conspiracy.
| One OF the indictments sets forth that George
| Barrow. otherwise known as James A. Wilson
| and also as Mark Bcauregard. consprcd with
| others to abduct Marion Clark, the child OF
| Arthur Clark; the second count alleged that
| lie did abduct Marion Clark and the third
| was the usual kidnapping charge. The mans
wife was indicted as Addie Barrow, otherwise
| known as Jennie Beaurcgard and Jennie Will
| son. The nurse girl was indicted as Carrie
| Jones. otherwise known rs Bella Anderson.
| Judge Newburger signed bench warrants for
| the arrest of the three persons named. The
| Carrie Jones warrant was handed over to De-
tectIve Sergeant Price OF the Central ONCE
who started to find Gov. Roosevelt and get
requisiton papers signed so that he might
bring the woman from Elizabeth to-day. The
warrants for the Barrows were turned over to
Detective Sergeant Morris OF the Central Off1ce
who was instructed by Capt. McClusky to go
to the Rockland county authorities and de-
| mand the surrender OF the couple.
Assistant District Attorney Mcintyre pro-
cured copies OF the indictments and went to
East Thrteth street. where Supreme Court
Justice Fursman resides when in this city.
Justice Fursman had sat early in the day In
the Criminal Branch Of the Supreme Court.
MIR. Mcintyre asked the Justice to sign an
order transferring the cases from the Court OF
General Sessions to the Criminal Branch OF
the Supreme Court. Justice Fursman signed
the order. The application was made SO that
the warrants would become Supreme Court
warrants. and as such likely to be more readily
recognized in Rockland county than a General
SESSIONS warrant.
Assistant District Attorney lie Barber went
up to Nyack with Detective Morris and the
warrants for the Barrows. There they met
Detectives Redy and Armstrong. Sheriff Blau-
welt. District Attorney Wyre OF Rockland
county. and Andrew 4. Fallon Of Pierpont. n.
