McFadden Jr., has been released from custody. Madame Auberlet was formerly gov- ernness in the MoFadden household. | The woman's release was ordered by Judge Isaac Johnson at the close of a hearing on a writ of habeas cor- ! pus begun in Media on Tuesday after- moon. Blanche Maguit, a former maid) tm the McFadden household, is out on bail under charges similar to those preferred against the governess. Sensational testimony was intre- @uced into the proceedings when Mr. McFadden and John C. Bell, at- torney for the Mc¥addens, testified @at Madame Auberiet told them that the jewel theft was the result ef a plot between Mrs. McFadden ana her mother, Mrs. Benjamin Frenklin Clyde of Bryn Mawr, to dis- pose of the jewels and go to France and live on the proceeds. For her part in telling of the plan, they said, Bhe demanded $50,000, George Wharton Pepper. counsel for Mrs. Clyde, said after the hearing was ove. that it was the desire of his client and the McFad- dens to show on court records how unjust was such an accusation. Mr. MoFadden testified that Mme. Auberlet tried to extort $60,000 from him @s compensation for “saving the honor of the family,” by not revealing the alleged plot of Mrs. McFadden and her mother to steal their own jewels. “I had a series of interviews with Mme. Auberlet over a period of six weeks,” said Mr. McFadden. “At the first interview she said she knew the plans by which the jewels were taken. She would not discuss the theft, as she stated that she had to talk first with a Mr. Kimball from New York. “Later she stated that the plan was created by my wife and my mother- in-law. According to Madame Au- yerlet, my wife got up late in the right, put the stuff in a black leather bag and put the bag under some bushes; my mother-in-law, who ar- rived next day, went to the bushes| and put the bag under the cloak she wore. She gave as the reason for al! ot this that my wife and mother-in- Jaw wished to go to Europe and live independently. The testimony given by Mr. McFad- den was substantiated later hy Mr. Rell when he went on the witness étand. He created more than a ripple of amusement when he testified that Mme. Auberlet had told him that “Mrs. Clyde wanted the jewels so she and her daughter could go to Paris to ‘decorate’ and make a grand | splurge with the Dukes and the no- bility.” asked her what she fn ‘decorate’,"” continued Mr. Be ° said that Mrs. Clyde would sell the proceeds. She sald later that Mr. Mc- Fadden knew all about this put had | to shield the honor of his wife and} family.” | Mrs, Clyde was vistbly agitated when she took the stand.
