SHELIKED THE RING,
BUT NOT IRON BARS
Pretty Girl from Boston Goes to
Cell After Adventure In
Broadway Cabaret.

Marie Hartford, q pretty and we'll
dressed girl. Just here from Boston. is
IN the West Fifty-seventh Street Jail
under q bond Of $500 for insisting that
a 5000 diamond ring which one Of her
companions had given 10 her TO try on
WAS her own.
Hal Holton, a munition purchasing
agent Of the British government, and
Vincent Browningham, who is here on
the same errand. were In q Broadway
cabaret late Monday night and invited
Miss Hartfordto join them at their table.
When they left the table the girl was
still wearing Holtons ring. When he
demanded hts ring the girl declared
that it was hers and that he was trying
TO steal II.
The Englishman persuaded her TO so
with him TO the Hotel Wsllick, where
his friend had retired for the night, in
the hope that he might convince her
that the ring did not belong TO her. When
Browningham, attired in pajsmas and
an overcoat, and his friend descended
20 the lobby they found that the girl
had called a policeman and was arguing
the case with him. The impromptu
judge escorted the trio TO the Forty
seventh Street police station.
Miss Hartford, who still insisted that
the ring was hers, was arrested and
held for the morning court. When the
girl realized that she must spend the
night in cell she became frantic, and
Il took two policemen TO pry her loose
from the rail in front OF the lieuten-
ants desk.
In the morning Magistrate Corrigan,
in the West Side court, refused 10 take
a lenient view Of Miss Hsrtford's con-
duct, although the ring had been re
turned and Holton was not anxious 20
press the case She was charged with
grand larceny and held for trial.
Yesterday afternoon in Jail the girl
declared that she had always been stub
born and that she had no intention OF
stealing the ring, but having once said
that il was hers she decided 10 be q
good sport and stick II through to the
end.
Miss Hartford said that her home
was 326 East Newton Street, Boston,
and that she had come to New York
only the day before TO look for work.
Her friends in Brooklyn had asked her
10 spend Monday evening with them,
but the temptation OF an adventurous
evening alone on Broadway led her 10
court.
