New York City.-Frederick G. Jud-

vice president of the Realty Realiza-
tion Co. of Chicago, and we'll known
fnancier was stabbed dozen times
while in the apartments of Otto
Dencker, Fifth-av real estate broker
on the fourth floor of the Edgemere,
8 West 103rd-st According to the po-
lice the stabbing was done by
Dencker, who had discovered young
Judson in the company of Mrs.
Dencker, a matronly looking woman
of 40. Dencker, powerfully built
man of so, disappeared Immediately
after the assault and the detectives of
the West 100th-st station had been un-
able to apprehend him up to a late
hour. Mrs. Dencker, after being ques-
toned fruitlessly for six hours at the
station house, was permitted to return
to her home; Young Judson was taken
to the ]. Hood Wright hospital, where
examination showed that his wounds
were mere scratches with the excep-
tion of four small cuts in the right leg,
shoulder, arm and stomach
Young Mans Version.
The neighborhood was first apprised
of the affair when fair haired young
man, the lines of whose slender well
built figure were more fully revealed
owing to the fact that he was clad
only in an undershirt, dashed wildly
out of the Edgemere. With the blood
gushing from his wounds the young
man ran around the corner to the
Greenwich apartments at 446 Central
Park west. He dashed into the front
entrance, gasped to the elevator man,
William Plant, Get a doctor quick.
I've been stabbed. l think I'm dying"
While awaiting the arrival of an
ambulance the young man said he had
been visiting woman whom he knew
as Mrs. Dana, around the corner. He
said he met her on a train coming
from Boston. She got on at New Ha-
ven, CT, and told him she had been
at a football game there.
''She gave me her card and asked
me to CALL" said Judson. "She told
me to ask for Mrs. Dana and would

pital found that the young mans
wounds were not serious and took him
to the hospital.
A detective assigned to the case
found Mrs Dencker in her apartment
in Mysteries. The woman is short and
rather stout, a brunette with rather
sharp cast of countenance.
At the police station she stated that
young Judson was a casual acquaint.
ance of hers and that he had called
upon her at luncheon time. 1t was
about o'clock, she said, when her
husband opened the front door of the
apartment with passkey.
Judson became frightened, she said
and dived into the maids room. 81
won't tell you what happened then,
she continued, 81 won't say that Mr.
Dencker did the stabbing. This af
fair is not one for the police. Is there
any charge against me?"
She was told that there was none
and that she could go whenever she
wished. She said she would remain
until the newspapermen had left.
At Dencker's office, 500 Fifth.av
and other places where he was gen
orally to be found, no trace of hin
was found. 1t is probable chat the
case will never reach the courts, as
young Judson said at the hospital tha
he would not make complaint.
