GERS Proffer of Weapon,
Then Sends Bullet
Into His Victim.

eral peculiar features of the affair
Considine is believed 10 be dying in
the North Hudson Hospital. where he
was taken by Or. Hellstern. and chief
get the policeman's story before death
came. This statement threw very little
light on the case.
Late in the afternoon County Detec-
vestigate the case. and he. too. went
TO the hospital TO interview Considine.
The policeman. realizing that his con-
dition was critical. said TO the county
detective:
IF I'm going TO cash in you can bet
your life I'm not going 10 sign any
statement that might be the means OF
making another fellow cash in And
that Is as far as the Statement" went.
Policeman Considine was supposed
to be on duty last night. but he was
in plain clothes when shot. and in the
same garb when he first appeared at
Bonder's hotel.
The actors mother. during rather
jumbled account of the trouble. Is re-
ported TO have said To Chief Fox that
she had overheard her son accuse the
policeman of being too fresh" with his
wife. All three were under the IN
nuence of liquor when other policemen
reached the scene.

The accused actor was locked up in
the Hackensack Jail TO await the result
of Considine's wound. Mrs. Devlin. a
vaudeville actress. and Miss Annie
Devlin. a cousin Of the accused, were
held as material witnesses.
Ex-Assemblyman Herman \. Berg,
counsel Tor the Devlins. said he could
not understand how the police officials
came TO arrest Mrs. Devlin as mate
rial witness, knowing that wife can
not be made to testify against her
husband. particularly in ,Lse of a
serious nature AS TO the nature of the
shooting. he said:
Il haven't been able TO determine
that fact, yet. From several things
that appear d during the investigation

cluded that Considjne had been Wis

SAYS MAILS SHOULD
HAVE RIGHT OF WAY ON
WRONG SIDE OF STREET

That automobiles and other yehi.
lcles engaged IN the collection Of the
mails frcml the various street boxes
should be fgiven the right-of-way In
ell cases. but that civility on the part
lscf the employees toward the pNbiiC
should be shown at all times, was the
statement made this morning by Post
master Pratt, who viii make a. per
sonal investigation of the scene caus-
ed by. Collector Silva at Fort and
King streets yesterday. Silva, 1t is
said. was driving his automobile on
the wrong side of the street, and as
he approached the corner another We
hicle turned toward him on the right
side. A car close by threatened to
brighten the horses CT the second We
hicle, and an accident was barely
avoided
It is also said that Silva demanded
that the driver of the rig back his
horses In order that the mail automo-
bile might pass, but such a move
might have endangered the rig and
its occupants Silva Is said to have
threatened the driver with arrest for
Constructing the United States mails !"
Postmaster Pratt said that in collect
ing the mails It is necessary to drive
continually from one side OF the street
to the other, and he believes, he said,
that this was the cause Of Silva's be
ing on the wrong side of the thor
oughfare. He will investigate the mat
ter personally, but as yet no official
complaint has been made to him OF
Silya's conduct. r. ..

CALLED JOKE
Residents of Peninsula in Arms
Over Report of Sharks in
Pearl Harbor Waters

Protests are being voiced by resi-
dents down the Peninsula following
a story published yesterday morning
regarding a thrilling experience" OF
Tom Gum. Chinese aviator, and lady
passenger. In the story referred to
the lady in question is made to say;
All feared was for the safety Of
Mr. Gum. could almost see the
sharks around him and l feared he
would be eaten by them The story,
elsewhere, says They had been in
the air for more than an hour before
he alighted in Pearl Harbor.
These quotations have raised the
ire of residents of the vicinity In
which the thrilling experience" Is
alleged to have occurred, while the
entire story they regard and charac-
terize as q "canard pure and sim
pie"
A prominent resident Of this sec
ton called at the Office Of the Star
Bulletin this morning and stated that
he spoke for q number OF other resi-.
dents when he voiced a protest
against what he termed lies being
told regarding the presence of sharks

and l have yet to hear Of his ever
getting his boat out of the water.
That Is not an airship 1t is a water
boat. At least that. Is all the ayia
tor has proved 1t to be. As TO his
being in the air for an hour. that is.
q huge joke. However, that Is not
the point that Is interesting US. Pro
vided he Is able to get. publicity for
doing something he does not do we
have no complaint to make butswe
do protest and protest vigorously
against any stories of the water be
ing shark infested. There is fine
bathing in that vicinity and such stor-
les will tend to drive bathers away
and to scare the residents from en-
tering the water. The entire story Is
pure fiction and absurd. excepting for
the fact that the report of sharks in
the water is injurious. .
