i 1T was by command OF ST. Eliza
beth of Hungary, my patron saint,
that i killed Anna Aumuller," Hans
Schmidt told Father Luke Eyers, the
i Tombs chaplain, today in New York.
/ est. Elizabeth commanded me to
offer up a sacrifice" he continued,
| "and, like the sacrifice of Abraham,
it must be one of blood. So killed
Anna Aumuller and drank some Of
her blood to consummate the sacri-
| fee"
The impression which Schmidt
gives, perhaps Intentionally, is that
of lunatic, but the police are not
sure whether his mind is really I'M
balanced or IL he is shamming. Ex-
! pert alienists will examine him.
Smiling at some in his cell at the
| Tombs, Schmidt talked calmly and
peculiarly with his visitors, gave all
1 the details of perhaps the most shock
| ing murder in New York's police his
tory without a sign of emotion, and
| to all appearances failed entirelys to
Il
town position. Coroner Feinberg de-
clared that he never saw SO marked
a case of dual personality.
Dual Personality.
"One side of his face wears a sane
titled expression, just such as one
would expect on the face of a priest"
said the coroner. sThe other side is
marked by devilish brutality. From
one side the eyes have a beatific gaze.
From the other side, a diabolic leer."
i Describes Flendish Work.
i Schmidt, who explained that he had
studied medicine in Germany, coolly
diagramed with pencil and paper how,
with the aid of knife and a hand

up separately in heavy paper He
made FIVE trips from the fiat to the
river with the bundles, dropping one
or two into the water on each trip
until all were disposed of.
The Pacific Mail liner Peru, ar
irving at San Francisco from the west
coast of Mexico, made special call
at Manzanillo. and brought from that
port large number of refugees from
all parts of Mexico Many of them
came out in response to President
Wilson's message, which among the
Americans in Mexico is regarded as
the first step toward Intervention.
The majority of those who arrived
on the Peru declared that Intervention
will be necessary to restore order in
the troubled republic.
President Wilson's message, they
say. has had the effect of increasing
the activity of the bandit horde who
have been making life miserable all
over Western Mexico.
FUZZY twenty thousand people, a
| few in broadcloth, the vast majority
| in humble garb, and few actually
