Walter S. Ward. son Of a mil
lionaire baker, when it was re-
vealed that Ward drank iodine at
his home about six weeks ngo.
The family physician saved
Wards life only by heroic meas

Called Accident.
Ward, in making his confession,
said that he had been harrassed ty
blackmailers for about six weeks,
and investigators are now trying to
determine whether or not Ward tried
to take his own life, and IL so, why.
DIR. Orville II. Schell, who attend.

taking of iodine was an accident.
He continued:
"I believe Ward meant to take
some medicine to cure a headache.
1t is very easy to get a bottle mixed
in the dark. 1 have no information
that the iodine was taken with suici-
dal intent. You have to believe a
man innocent until he Is proved
guilty"
While Ward, who is president Of
the board of police commissioners
at New Rochelle, was searcing in
New York city last night for the
pals Of the man he slew, authorities
were trying to determine what
threats were made against Ward by
the men he says blackmailed him.

fashionable hotel for the past ten
days, Is being sought In the belief
that she can throw some light on

Major Blake has arranged for es-
