Wilmington, Del, Mar 29.-The

Railroad, which left Washington at
O'Clock in the afternoon for New

edy under dramatic circumstances un-
paralelled in the history of modern

A frenzied man shot down and

Of the train while it was running ct
rate of sixty miles an hour, just
south of this city, and held the re-
mainder of the crew and passengers

Trapped in the car which his shots
had emptied, except for the dying ne
gro porter, whose body was stretched
in a chair with his face pressed
against the window, the desperate
man, either mad or crazed with liquor,
was brought into the station here.
Using the car as an armed fortress
he fought an hours battle with n
squad of twenty police. led by the
chief, the fire department, which
poured heavy stream OF water in the
car in an effort to drown him, and Il
number of citizens, until his wounds
brought him close to death.
With the few remaining cartridges
out of hundred which he carried III
his pockets in the magazine of his re-
volver, he made final rush TO escape.
A charge from a shotgun in the
hands of the chief of police, fired at
short range, halted him in the vesti-
bu,e and a blow from the butt of a
police revolver sent him TO his knees.
his pistol empty and his body torn
with wounds. He died in a few min.
utes.

RUTH WHEELER
MURDER VICTIM
Body Bound with Wires, Wrap
ped in Burlap and Placed Out
side Window of Flat
REVOLVING new YORK CRIME
Albert w. Woiter, Having Been Ar.
rested on Charge of Abducing Child,
Rearracncd and Accused of Murder
Victim First Stranged.

New York, n. Y, Mar. 29.-Ruth
Amos Wheeler, 10 years Old blue
eyed and auburnhaired started out
eagerly on Thursday morning from
the Merchants ANA Bankers Business
School No. COS Madison avenue, in
search of her first position as stenog-
rapher She found death instead. Her
body was discovered on a fire escape
outside the fourth floor rooms of Al
bert Walter Wolter. eighteen years
old in the rear OF no. 22i East Seven
ty-fifth street. She had been mur-
dered. and the body, partly burned,
doubled up and bound with wires, was
wrapped in newspapers and packed in
a burlap bag. The package looked so
much like bundle of waste paper
that it was tossed off the fire escape
to the yard. Then John K. Taggart OF
No. 222 East Seveniy-tifth street, who
tossed the bundle to the ground, be-
came suspicious, opened it and dis
covered the body.
Investigation showed that the girl
was seized by her murderer, strangled
to death by a rope knotted about her
throat and doubled up and bound with
thin wire. The body was soaked with
kerosene, placed in n small CRATE in
VOTERS apartment and burned. Then
it was wrapped in newspapers and
thrown on the fire escape, where it re-
mained for almost two days. The
murderer, apparently In his efforts to
get the body into the CRATE, had brok-
en- the bones of his victim. His first
intention evidently was to dispose of
the body entirely by burning it.
The murderer burned part of the
girls clothing and her hair in stove
in another part Of the building. and
sought to dispose of her hat and the
rest of her clothing with the body IN
the CRATE Parts OF the arms and the
legs evidently We're burned to ashes,
for the bones Of fingers and the toes
were found in the ashes in the CRATE
With them We're the girls hat pin,
one garter buckle and the steel ribs Of
her corsets.
Further facts obtained by the police
Indicate that the body was left in the
fireplace for several hours, and that
the murderer, to hide any hint OF
fire in the CRATE, had painted the CRATE
cover black. Presumably, while the
body still lay in the CRATE, under the
cover, Pearl Wheeler, the victims Sis
ter. entered the fiat and was alone for
several minutes with Wolter, seeking
Information concerning her sisters
whereabouts. He denied all knoWl-
edge of the missing girl, 1t Is alleged,
locked the door on Pearl and kept her
from going away for several minutes,
until her threats of policeman wait
ing below compelled him to open the
door.
Wolter is now locked up on the
charge of abducting the girl. He ad-
mits having written the postal card
which lured the girl to her death, and
says he has been in the habit OF ask
ing business colleges to send to him
their students.

Of Cambridge Banks Money.

Cambridge, Mass, Mar. 29.-1n a
confession, first made public, George
w. Coleman, the young man charged
with embezzlement from the National
City Bank of Cambridge, admitted
that he took $1S0,000, and that practi-
cally every cent of it was lost in try
ing to ''break faro bank" In New
York. Coleman stated that he was in
troduced to the game by Boston man
several years ago and lost $4,000 OF
his own at that time. Two years later
he met the other Boston men who in
terested him in the same game, he
said, and between last May and Febru-
ary he made at least fifty trips to
New York, taking with him each time
sums varying from $4,000 to $4,000, all
Of which he lost. Those men, said
Coleman, knew where the money was
coming from, as he had told them he
"was getting 1t wrong"
The alleged disclosures were made
at Coleman's home in Cambridge.
