XMAS PRISONER
Girl Abandoned by Mother Sent
to House of De-
tention.

Abandoned by her mother at the
Four Corners, Mary Hamon, II years
old, will spend Christmas in the
House of Detention.
Policeman Sinot, on post at Broad
and Market streets. was attracted
early today by the sobs of a child
coming from a doorway at the south
west corner. Finally at 2:30 o'clock
he located the little girl. She said her
mother had left her there at about
1880 and promised to return, but had
failed to do so.
She also said her family had moved
here only three days ago from West
field, and that she did not know the
address of her new home. She was
put in the witness-room at the sta
ton house, where she cried for her
mother. Later she was sent to the
House of Detention.
The police are making an investi-
CATION of the case and are searching
for the mother.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1S.-FormeT
Senator j. B. Foraker today pro-
dueed a statement before the Senate
campaign expenditures investigating
committee prepared by Gilchrist
Stewart purporting to be based on a
description by w. w. WINFIELD of
how WINFIELD and Charles Stump
took the "Archbold letters" from the
Standard Oil offices and sold them to
representative of William r. Hearst
Mr. Hearst said yesterday that he
did not know how the letters were
procured" declared the former SEN
ator. @Such a preposterous story as
that you might tell to the marines
but to no one else"
Mr.. Foraker said Stewart in 1905
sent him a newspaper clipping IN
which w. A. Ullman, attorney fol
c. P. Taft" was reported to have
consulted with Mr.. Hearst about the
letters before they were published
and suggested that Ullman, Mr.. Taft
and John T. Cronin, the latter for

Hearst, be called as witnesses.

Upon the interview, he said, Stewart
had based his report. What that re-
port contained, Mr.. Foraker pro-
ceeded to detail, declaring that he
did not vouch for it's accuracy. He
added that the committee could call
WINFIELD.
According to the statement pre-
sented WINFIELD and stump no

sale of letters. and taking some from
the Archbold files tried to sell them,
but failed. Finally, they wrote a
letter to the New York American

AS a result of that conference they

Lad and Sister Robbed on Or
ange Street, Near Busy
Thoroughfare.

A hold-up, in which four small boys
and a girl figured, was enacted at
Main and Cleveland streets. Orange,
one block away from the busiest cor
ner in the city, early last night.
Wayne and Velma Bird, 10 and 5
years old, respectively, children of Mr..
and Mrs. Frank Bird, of 1853 Lakeside
avenue, Orange, were walking along
Main street with number of parcels
containing sweets and Christmas
presents, when, it is alleged, three
boys stopped them and ordered them
to turn over their goods.
Resenting their interference, Wayne
tried to chase the would-be thieves.
but they succeeded in taking a num-
ber of his parcels.
He tripped one of the boys when
the trio started to run, and the con-
tents of number of the bags were

HUBBY A NAGGER,
SHE SAYS IN SUIT
Declares Limited. but Effective
Store of "cuss" Words Got
on Her Nerves.

Too much mother-in-law and
brutal treatment on the part of her
husband were given as causes for
divorce by Mrs Laura ]. Davis. of
Upper Montclair, before vice-Chan-
eellor Howell today. Her husband.
Frank L. Davis, entered a general
denial of the charges.
On the witness stand Mrs. Davis
referred to her husband as a per.
petual '.nagger,p who found fault
with the most trivial thing. She
averred that he argued simply for the
sake of argument.
From the time she was married in
Chicago, December 10. 1894. Mrs
Davis declared that she had had
trouble. At first. she said, her hus-
band did not swear, but soon ac-
quired that art. and continually re-
lferred to her. often in the presence
of their three children. as an idiot
and fool" On several occasions, she
declared. he insisted that the children
remain while he expressed his opinion
of their mother
During all Mrs. Davis's testimony
all other witnesses were excluded
from the courtroom, and when she
was questioned as to their marital
relations during the last year they
were together everybody was ordered
from the room by the court. a most
unusual procedure.
At one .,oint in her testimony Mrs.
Davis declared that her husbands
vocabulary of swear words was very
limited and he used but two express
sions. you fool and you idiot -
These, she declared he used almost
constantly, and on several occasions
told the children that because their
mother was a idiot and fool it was no
reason why they should be.
The Davises moved to Upper Mont
clair in 1906, and have resided there
ever since. They have three children,
Robert. ls years old: Catherine, IA
years old, and Anna. lS years old.
Before coming to Montclair the
Davises spent some time in St. Jose,
Mich. On one occasion, in 1900, Mrs.
Davis testified that she had arranged
a tea party for her friends. When
Mr.. Davis heard of it he raised such
rumpus, his wife testified. that she
suffered a nervous breakdown and fell
unconscious and had to be carried to
her bed The party, she declared.
must have been called off by Mr..
Davis. because nobody appeared. Soon
afterward Mr.. Davis suggested that
they arrive at some sort of an under
standing with reference to a divorce
or a separation. They, however,
could arrive at no agreement. They
separated in September. 1911.
