Charged With Murder Of
Six-Year-Old Son.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J.. December
15.-The body of James NJ. Blake, jr..
six-year-old son of a wealthy Phila-
delphia insurance broker, who was
declared by his mother to have been
kidnapped Friday, was washed ashore
at Ventnor yesterday. Mrs. Blake has
been placed under arrest
Mrs. Blake, who, Friday night,
craw1ed to the home Of Benjamin Fox,
by two negroes who. after beating
her. robbed her of a handbag and
then fled with her child, is charged
with the murder Of the boy. She was
removed from the homo of Mrs. A. c.
Miller, in Ventnor, to the Atlantic
City Hospital, where she is guarded
by policeman. She is said to be suf-
fering from a nervous collapse.
The boys body was found less than
five blocks from the pier in Ventnor,
where Mrs. Blake's handbag was re-
covered yesterday. and about the
same distance from the scene of the
alleged kidnapping.
County Physician L. r. Souder per-
formed an autopsy and pronounced
death due to drowning. He said it had
not yet been decided whether to hold
an inquest. There were no marks on

the water" said DR.. Souder.i
Mrs. Blake is said to have been suf-
fering from a nervous ailment for a
number of years. The authorities said
she had told many conflicting stories,
both before and since her arrest, prob
ably due, lit is said, to her nervous
condition.
Mr.. and Mrs. Blake have been
estranged for some time. The boy and
a ten-year daughter had been in
the custody of their father and had
been permitted to go out with their
mother.

Last week came an open rupture be-
tween the jury and the district attor-
