FOOLS TO RESIST,
SAYS A BURGLAR

New York. July Crank Schmidt.
alias John Smith. the wounded bur-
giar. who admits that he killed Mrs.
Sophia Staber In her bedroom early
yesterday morning, when he was
caught robbing the Staber house at
Fiatbush, gave the District Attorney
today his version Of the moral to be
drawn from the murder.
''Mr Staber and his son are the ones
20 blame for this killing" he said.
They were fools to try to stop such
men as US when all we wanted was to
make q getaway. II we had been
left alone. there would not have been
q shooting.
"If Mr.. Staber will take gun will
gladly stand up In front Of him and let
him shoot till I drop dead. That's
how much regret this affair"
Schmidts pal. Carlo Giro, alias
Metzler, who was silent at first, made
o full confession today. in which he
tried to lay all the blame on his mate.
On visit tonight to the rooms
which the burglars had occupied. the
police discovered what they saij might
be a clue to the murder OF Samuel
Bersin. a painter, whose dismembered
body, wrapped in oil cloth, was found
in an East Side street q month ago.
The police found piece Of black oil
cloth, which they say Is of Identical
quality, color and make as that in
which Bersin's body was wrapped.
