"The inclination IS strong" he said,
''to make now q clear, full sweeping

This, however, IS not q case TO be tiled

beyond admonishing Katherine from
Time to time to keep her mouth shut.
When they came into the outskirts
OF Baltimore one man produced q hand
kerchief and tied 1t over the girls eyes.
The car moved on for two hours before
1t halted.
Katherine was told to alight and no
up some steps. She climbed three
flights and when the handkerchief was
removed found herself in a room with
an attractive brunette" about IS years
old.
The woman ignored Katherine's ques-
tons, ordering the girl to remove her
clothing. She then went out and re-
turned with an old skirt and sweater
which Katherine donned. The girl
cried herself to sleep that night and
awoke to look out Of dirty windows at
the tree tops OF q dense grove.
Inc strange woman came in from
time to time through locked door with
food and water as Wednesday and an
other night wore away About 10
O'Clock yesterday morning the woman
came IN with large heavy-set man,
who seemed to be in authority.
Inc newcomer looked at Katherine
and shook his head, saying, This is not
the right girl" Katherine heard him
add that she may get us into trouble, -
and before the man left he issued orders
that Katherine be taken home.
Same Men Return Girl.
Katherine was told she would be re-
turned to Washington as soon as it got
dark and about dusk last night the two
men who brought her there returned
and blindfolded her. They left the
blindfold in place while they drove
several hours and when it was removed
Katherine said she was accompanied
by the same men in the same auto
mobile.
Arriving near Silver Spring the men
stopped the car and told Katherine to
get out and go on home. They adj
monished her not to look back, not to
talk too much" to the police and keep
moving.
katherine described the car as dark
green or black Cadillac touring of an
old model, with the curtains up in
back. She said it bore Maryland tag
and as best she could tell, the first three
numbers were "116."
The girl said one of the men was
about 40 years old, of q slender build
and medium height. He was dressed in
light pants, large red sweater and a
light cap. The girl said he acted like
dope ue0Q.
The other man, who talked like an
Italian, was of heavy build, had a
large nose and his left eye was partly
closed. He was about 80 years old and
wore tan suit, gray topcoat and light
dirty cap.
Father Saw Automobile.
Katherine's father, Charles c. Deegan
proprietor of . sightseeing business,
said he recognized from the girls de-
scription an automobile which he had
noticed several times recently in the
vicinity of his home.
Returning to his home Tuesday night,
Deegan heard an automobile drive out
of the alley and came out of the garage,
after parking his car, In time to see 1t
disappear around q turn. He did not
hear any outcry or struggle.
