AT ODDS OVER LAD

There sailed from this port on Saturday
in charge of steamship stewardess a
seven year old boy whom the United
States ia sending back to his mother in
Vienna. He has not seen her since his
father carried him on to this country in
November last. The father is shut up at
Ellis Island for decision as to his deporta-
ton. He is accused of perjury. in that he
twice came to America under an assumed
name.
The boy is Hans Eisner. The fail er,
Max Eisner. used To own farming imple-
ment factory in Mislita, Austria. The
mother IL Viennese, and there is evidence
that her family il very we'll to do The
couple separated last fall. The courts
gave Mrs. Eisner custody of the child.
but the first thing she knew Hans had dis
appeared with his father.
The father and son reached New York
on November 70. Eisner said he was Max
Freund and that the boy was his son
Gustav. They both went TO live with the
family of an oldtime Austrian friend, L.
Kremer, in Fast issd street
Then, according to Lawyer Morris
Cukor. who has been acting for Mrs.
Eisner. the father began writing to his
wife a series of letters in which he offered
to return the boy to Vienna for ransom
Of 10000 kronen. MIR. Cukor displayed
yesterday a letter which he said Eisner
had written 70 a friend in this city and
which had these sentences:
Rather than see mo and my child living
in misery and sorrow ! will say adieu TO the
world together with the boy. The
child | will not give up even If ! shall perish
with him in the most horrible manner.
Lawyer Cukor says that Eisner returned
to Vienna in January and tried TO reach
some sett lement with Mrs, Eisner whereby
she should get their son. He failed and
came back to New York on February q,
this time protesting TO be Herman Steiner.
Meanwhile the young alien. Hans. was
puzzling over American ways at a public
school In The Bronx and suggesting often
that he would like TO see his mother.
On July u Eisner, emerging from an
Austrian coffee house near the Cafe BOlle-
ward. was arrested by two Government
