Philadelphia, June 9 —(AP)—A carrier pigeon was found in Bryan Athyn, Pa., today, bearing a message purporting to have been sent by Walter S. Ward, of the New York millionaire baking family. The message, signed “Ward” said the writer was held captive in a shack three miles above Trenton, N. J., on the east side of the Delaware river. Ward disappeared about a month ago.
