NEW YORK'S MYSTERY
FRED sCHARN, BROTHER OF THE
MURDERED GIRL, is HELD.
Case Completed by the Finding of a
Gold watch In n Pawnshop-
Other Crimes.

NEW YORK, Aug. H.-The finding of a
gold watch in a pawn shop has served to
further complicate the mystery surround
ing the murder of Kate Scharn. This
watch was pawned by Fred Scharn, brother
of the murdered girl. who is now being
held without bail TO await the investiga-
tion of the police. On Aug. l Fred Scharn
while on his way TO the home of his sweet
heart. Nettie Kubin. who lives in East
e-sixty-second street, stop
ped in G. Eruckheimer's pawn shop and
got So on his watch. On Aug. he got s.
more on 1t, and 1t was the ticket for this
that led to the recovery Of the watch. 1t
was found in the Scharn apartments after
Fred's arrest. The police believed after
the finding of the watch that it belonged
TO the murdered girl. This theory, how
ever, was wrong. The watch taken from
Miss Scharn when she was murdered was
a cheap gold filled watch with nickel
works. But the finding of the pawned
watch is being used by the police as show
ing that young Scharn was in need of
money. They have brought to light the
fact that he owed a tailor for a suit of
clothes and was extravagant in his dress.
On the other hand, Lawyer Friend,
Scharn'S attorney, has, so the police de-
SidTe, eStdDlsheu an dhDl Tor the protner,
but they refuse to release him, and after
the coroner's hearing yesterday it was an
nounced by Coroner Fitzpatrick. at the re-
quest OF Inspector of Police Hanley, that
young Scharn would be held without bail.
Louis Lincoln Eisenprice, better known as
Lincoln Price, the bank clerk, who was en-
gagged to marry Miss Scharn, and who was
arrested. was released in $500 bail.
The finding OF two rings In a Bowery
pawn shop led the police astrays The rings
were said to have belonged TO Miss Scharn.
Young Scharn had been warned by his law
yer that he must do no talking to any one
except through him. and when the rings
were shown TO him he refused to saw
whether they were his sisters or not. 1t
was established after some hours that the
rings did not belong to Miss Scharn.
