BABY KIDNAPPED,
OFFICIAL THINKS
Prosecution Not Satisfied
With Agents View in
Conner Case.
BIZ United Press

By UHtted Press
HARTSDALE, N. Y, July 16.-
The five-day disappearance of 2
year-old Robert Conner threatened
to develop new mysteries today be-
cause a Skeptical district attorney
wants to find the answer to several
puzzling questions.
Bobby was found in a serious
condition yesterday in the woods
not far from his home. At Grass
lands hospital he was reported i'm
proving slightly. He was weakened
by insufficient food and water and
scratched by hrambleS.
Federal agents announced the
case was closed and that Bobby had
been lost in the underbrush for five
days.
But District Attorney Frank H.
Coyne said today he was not salts
fed and that, until otherwise con-
WINGED, he would proceed on the
theory that the child was kidnapped
and returned to the woods not long
before he was found.
Police and many persons skeptical
that a child could survice under
such conditions agreed with him.
They wanted to know:
l. How a 1-months-old child who
was not very strong could wander
half mile through thick under
brush.
2. How one of his white shoes
could have been removed with a
sock in it.
3. Why state police refuse to dis
cuss reports that a mysterious tele-
phone call was received at the
White Plains station shortly before
patrolmen went directly to the spot
where the baby was found.
4. Why the first examination of
the baby convinced officials that he
had been attended by an adult not
long before, yet later federal agents
said it was merely case of being
lost.
Mr.. Coyne took issue with Frank
x. Fay, federal agent in charge, and
also refused to accept the Grass
lands hospital report that Bobby
apparently had been exposed to the
elements for five days.

was Mrs. Mary Clark, Indianapolis,
owner of the building where Mrs.

fected her that it caused her to be-
come nervous and caused mental
agony" a point which Defense At

out of office, issued a procla-
nation of military law and
called in state troops in a
coup d'etat intended to thwart
his custer.
With all civil law suspended, he
claimed that any writ served on him
by the high court would be void.
The swift piece of strategy was
regarded as a stall for time mas
much as Governor LANCER has con-
vened the state legislature for
Thursday to determine whether he
is qualified to continue in office.
He faces a prison sentence fol-
lowing his conviction on charges of
soliciting political funds from fed
eral relief workers.
The legislature is composed of
men overwhelmingly allied with
LANCER.
Shout Insults at Jurists
Yelling crowds strobe along
streets leading to the Capitol build
ing, where soldiers we're bivouacked.
Many of the demonstrators were re-
lief workers and avid LANCER sup
porterS.
They halted before the homes of
five supreme court justices who
made the ruling ousting Governor
LANCER and shouted insults.
State Treasurer Albert Dale, anti
LANCER man, was beaten in hotel
lobby last night after political ar
gument, he reported.
Soldiers Form Bodyguard
The crowds in the streets claimed
that other LANCER supporters from
nearby communities would swell
their numbers.
Meanwhile, Lieutenant Governor
Ole Olson, whom the supreme court
called the real Governor of North
Dakota" issued orders resembling
the special legislative session called
by Governor LANCER. The status Of
the order remained doubtful.
A bodyguard of state troopers
stood guard over the executive
offices and soldiers followed Gov
ernOr LANCER wherever he went.
