Klein declined TO partake Of the hospi-
tally of Mrs Blitstein when she invited
him to the dining room. Instead he drew
two revolvers and began to shoot at her.
She threw up her right arm and received
two bullet wounds In that limb and an
other bullet in her right hip. As she fell
with a scream and her sister ran to her
aid Klein shot at Mrs. Lapidus, the bullet
striking her In the left breast. She fell,
and Klein, believing that he had mortaIly
hurt both women. ran from the house.
He was followed for nearly u mile by
a small boy, who when he came across
Policeman Fritz Of the Vernon avenue
station told him Of what Klein had done.
and Fritz placed him under arrest and took
three revolvers away from him. Both
women probably will recover.

as an able and clean young fellow and a
