Man Held at Creston May Be Re
leased.

Creston, Aug. 17.-Charles B. So
ward, held as a suspect in the Willis
ca murder mystery, now appears to
be in a position to prove an alibi
that will c his release from GUS
tody. Chief of Police Exline has re-
ceived from Thomas O'Leary, detec-
tive stationed at yillisca, a letter
found among Soward's effects. This
letter is from T. B. Johnson, editor
Of the La Junta Press in Colorado,
and authorizes Seward to collect
subscriptions for the paper.
The letter is dated June 10, only
one week after the Villisca murders,
and would indicate that Seward was
far from the scene Of the crime
when it was perpetrated.
Local authorities are inclined to
believe that the letter will clear So
ward completely.

her husband to death as he lay in
bed by her side, told on the witness
stand yesterday of the events lead
ing up to the killing. she pitted
her wits against the sharp question
ing of the state attorney and an
swered his questions calmly.
do you know where the revolver
was ON the night of the killing?'
she was asked.
"No, sir"
How long after you had called
to your husband to come into the
room did he Gomez"
"About ten or fifteen minutes"
WAS he in his ~nightgown them
Yes"
Mrs. Bernstein then told Of how
her husband had struck her with a
shoe as she lay in bed.
After that, she said, her memory
became blank. She testified that
when she awoke the following morn
ing her husband was not in the
room. She found him lying in the
bath room with a towel over his
head.
Six alienists were on hand to
watch her every motion and express
sion preparatory to being called on

her counsel explained caused her to

Franklin township. He has been
living with a broken back since the
afternoon of Wednesday, July z, and

than at any time since the accident
occurred. Surgeons in attendance
now acknowledge that the victim
has a chance to survive the terrible
injury, but it is said that in event
of such contingency the nan will al

the tips of his toes.
Mr.. Horsman was helping a neigh
Dor, George Schroeder, with thresh-
ing operations, and was standing in
front of a team when the steam
from the thresher engine "blew off,"
The frightened team jumped square
ly against Mr.. Horsman, throwing
him backwards in a sitting posture,
head bent forward. In that position
he was struck across the shoulders
by the wagon axle and his body
doubled into a close loop.
The spinal column was bowed out
at the middle lumbar vertebrae aud
so remained until adjusted by a sur
geon two hours later. The inner
projections of at least two of the
vertebrae are said to be broken off
and the spinal cord caught between
the fractured edges.
The other victim of a broken back
is Charles McMillen of Knoxville. He
has survived seven years after a
mine accident, in which two v%erte-
orae of the small of the back were

WAS LOST SINCE LAST SPRING.

Algona, Aug. 17.-The body OF
Daryl NARROW, the lost o of w. L,
NARROW, was found yesterday after
noon by the grandfather about one
mile from his home, badly decompos-
ed but Identification was complete.
Coroner Reaser, Sheriff Brunson and
County Attorney Vanness are in
charge Of the inquest being held at
Lone Rock. The case is shrouded in
mystery as searchers had covered the
spot many times.
The disappearance of the NARROW
child aroused national attention,
owing to the great mystery which
surrounded the case. Playing in the
road near his home, the 2-year-old
boy was missed an hour later and
until yesterday not the slightest
trace had been secured, though re-
wards totalling $4,000 had been Of
fered by the parents. friends and the
citizens in nearby cities.
Every gypsy band in the state of
Iowa was watched with suspicion, in
the belief that the child might have
been stolen. and several arrests were
made, but nothing came Of them.
1t was supposed that the little
boy had been struck by an auto and
the body carried off in order to hide
the crime.

The girls are Myrtle Watts, 16, of
Union avenue; May and Ruth
Ketchem, II and 16, daughters of

grandfather, Jacob Hartmann. They
were on their way to the home Of

away in Union avenue, two men
sprang out. One seized Myrtle Watts
and drew her into the bushes. The
other three girls ran and told Wal

stepdaughter's assailant.
Myrtle ran away and Walters was
getting the better of the man when

Walters off long enough for them to
a Walters n his stepdaugh-
ter think they would recognize one of

admission made by Connie Mack,

ply, the hard-hitting right-fielder, is
u of the game for the season, was
a shock to the followers of the Amer

water on the knee, and that he did
not see how he could get into condi-

George Hutton. who is presiding at

pointment today with District At

visibility of naming a new custodian

An attack on the testimony of Bert
H. Franklin, the States star witness,

Hartman has another motive-the

note is being searched for finger
prints.
The arrested mar gave the name OF
George Pfeiffer. of No. 1856 Third ave-
nue.. He was seen in Crotona Park
by Florence Mccarthy, of No. 2535
Cambreling avenue, and May O'Brien,
of No. 1918 Trafalgar place, the
Bronx. The young women said h.
insulted them, and when they made
an outcry he fed.
Several detectives working in Full
ton venue on the Connors murder
saw the man in flight and gave
chase.
Those girls say that / killed Julia
C%onnors," gasped the man when ar
rested. The young women told the
detectives they had made no mention
Of the little girl. When the prisoner
wos searched, in his pockets were
found newspaper stories of the tras-
edy and a newspaper picture Of the
victim. Pfeiffer explained he had
kept the clippings so he might read
them to his aunt. In n of the
mans pockets was a small signet
ring with the initial "a" es.
That ring was too little to go on
any of P~feiffer's fingers. He said It
belonged to his niece. Captain Price
and Detective Lieutenant Wynes
mnde him account for his actions On
Saturday and Sunday. They will in
vestigate the stories he told them
and in the meantime he is being held
In 1000 bail. In the Morrisania court
he confessed to Magistrate Barlow
that two years G he had been sent
away for six months for insulting
women.
