‘QUNTIRD 1S HELD IN JAIL. iMiss Alice Bradley, Defend- ant in $50,000 Suit for Alienation, Racing Across Country to Prisoner's Rescue. als PERILOUS ~— FLIGHT. ‘Escaped from Officers and Pulled Out Into Sound in a Small Boat Before 60-Mile Gale, but Was Captured. STAMFORD, Conn., March %7.—Behind Vane ‘bars of the Stamford Jat] sits ‘Charles Quintard, married man, cherged ith wife abandonment, and the bone ©f contention between Mrs. Quintard and Miss Alice Bradley, a rich young woman who is being sued by the wife for 360,000 for alienating the husband's Q@ffections. ‘The story of how Quintard got behind those bars and the effort he made to keep from geting there is fit material for the weirdest writer of melodrama that ever made Third avenue gallery gods howl with joy. He put to sea in fan open boat to escape the officers of the law after the discovery by them of his plan to sail with Miss Bradley in Ber yacht for seas where suits for aifenation and abandonment are things unknown, ‘He narrowly escaped being drowned in @ roaring gale and made dry land only to fall into the hands of the law. Mean- time Miss Bradley, not knowing that Quintard had been captured, was driv- (mg wildly about the State of Connecti- out with detectives at her heels, ex- pecting to throw them off the track @nd meet Quintard. She failed and ®he {s now mysteriously and dramatic- ally trying to get him out of jail. The abandonment case comes up to- morrow and another chapter will then be added to this romantically uncon- ventional case. As Miss Bradley has $30,000 in cash and other property left her by her father she Is in a position to make a eood legal fight. Why Warrants Were Insued. During the last several days Miss Hred. fey and Quintard have been fitting out @ yacht at Palmer's boat works, and it rwas sali expected to sail for the South, whaperoned, of course. The attorneys for Mra. Quintard be- Meved that Miss Bradley intended going for good, and they could think of no better way of holding her here to an- Swer the alienation sult than to hold Quintard on a cherge of wife abandon- ment, Therefore, the warrants were is- mued. Two Stamforl constables watched a house in North Stamford where, it is eaid, Miss Bradley and Quintard have been living until nearly noon yesterday rwhen the pair left the house and dro’ to Palmer's boat works, The constables reached them just as they were about ‘to board the yacht and served the war- ra: constables had no authority to arrest thim in Greenwich, and they telephoned for Sheriff Ritch to make the arrest. ‘When Sheriff Ritch arrived he saw Quintard in the yacht, about 400 feet from shore, with Miss Bradley also @board. Off in @ Small Boat. ‘When Quintard saw the sheriff coming the jumped into the small dory along- aide the yacht and poked her nose out into the Gound, apparently headed for the Long Island shore, The officers ‘watched him until he was out of sight | and then prophesied that he would be @rowned, as a gale was kicking up a high qa and he was in the trough. At midnight the dory in which Quin- tard had escaped was washed ashore by the storm near the Riverside Yacht ‘Club, and the word quickly spread that Quintard had been drowned. Irstead he had been lucky to get ashore after a hard fight and unlucky enough to fall into the hands of the Chief of Police of Stamford, who strangely, as in a play, was on the spot where the fugitive happened to land, This is how Quintard trom behind the bars told an Evening World reporter it happened: “It was my intention to get over to Long Island and land at Seawanhaka, at the opening of Oyster Bay. Rut the wind was coming at me at sixty miles an hour and after a fight with the sea 1 hed to give ft up. “But I resolved not to land on Con- necticut soll and to reach New York.

Since then all trace of them have been lost, although the police of Staten Island and Manhattan have been making active search, Miss Cole's parents are much worried.

In fact, it is entirely unnecessary for our prosecutions to have the complainant appear at all. Our attendance officers use the original information simply as a clue. “Recently a citizen called the attetnion of the department ito a father who had apprenticed his two ttle boys to a horse trainer with) a view of making them jockeys. The boys were to be sent to another State. The attendance off- cers worked up the case and in the ‘Children's Court secured the abrogation of the contract and an order placing fhe children in school. Complainant Did Not Figure. “No one except the superintendent In charge knew who had mede the com- piaint, and this person did not figure in any way In the proceedings. “No citizen need have fear that a complaint will lead him into undeserved publicity or embrol! him with his neigh- bors. The department, in fact. solicits such information, and wll undertake solemnly to live up to Its agreement not to divulge the identity of inform- ants.” DEATH FOUND HIM ON HIS BICYCLE.
