HELD FOR SEDUCTION.
W. W. Gardner Bound Over In the
Sum of $500 to Circuit Court.
W. W. Gardner was yesterday even
ing bound over by Justice Fitz Gerald
to answer tho charge of seduction
preferred against him by Amy Hoi
lett. Tho complainant, who Is but 17
years of age nt this time, is an orphan
who has been making her homo with
her sister, Mrs. Sine Montgomery, of
Cold Springs. Gnrdnor is a married
man, but has kept bis domestic rela
tions n secret from the people hero
nntll after the present denouement.
He has been in tho vicinity between
two and three years, coming here
from tho East. I-ast summer while
working for Purl Bowman, the
wealthy farmer south of town, he be
came engaged to tho Hollctt girl, and
under promise of marriage seduced
her. Their child was born on the
12th of March. Tho victim swore to
the complaint Monday last. Justice
Fitz Gerald bound him over under
$500 bond to appear for trial.
It appears that Gardner lias practi
cally done nothing to support the girl
and in addition to being a scoundrel,
is either extremely reckless or not of
average Intelligence, as ho ndmlts
the crime, but clnims he thought the
girl was a year older than she really
was at the time the first offense wns
committed. He also claims that be
expects to get a divorce from bis
wife in the East, and that he would
marry the girl If he could do so legal
ly. He has undoubtedly nttempted to
bribe the girl from giving testimony
against him.

QET8 A DIVORCE.
Gardner Get Into Two Courts at
Once Now Declare That He Will
Marry Girl He 8educed.
Two chapters wore written In tho
life of W. WL Gardner yesterday In
this city.
The most highly colored and sensa
tional chapter was that which tellB
of his preliminary examination on
the charge of seduction, an account of
which Is given elsewhere. The othor
chapter was the granting by Judge
Ellis of Gardner's petition for n di
vorce, which has been pending In
this court since last July. Tho dlvorco
was on the grounds of abandonment
and infidelity by his wife, whoso
present whereabouts Gardner pro
fesses to have no knowledge.
Judge Ellis stated to a reporter for
the East Oregonlan that Gardner pre
sented a straight case, consistent and
with abundant evidence to provo his
complaint and that ho was entitled
to the divorce. But the Judges' as
tonishment nt learning that tho plain
tiff in tho divorce case and tho de
fendant In tho seduction case were the
same Individual was considerable, as
not the slightest intimation had reach
ed his ears that the parties wore the
same.
Until after the hearing of tho pre
liminary case against Gnrdncr In Jus
tice FItz Gerald's court, Judge Ellis
had heard nothing about tho seduc
tion case. The facility with which
Gardner gave bonds Is supposed to
be due to the activity and influence
of the young lndy's relatives and
friends and goes far to indicate that
Gardner Intends eventually to do ex
actly what ho says marry tho girl.
Gardner and his wife, from whom he
was divorced yesterday, once lived In
Salem, at which placo sho deserted
him and went East, or perhaps to
parts unknown, with nnothor man.
Peter West is tho attorney for Gardner.
