GUNMEN AGAIN
ACTIVE IN GOTHAM

New York. Aug. william Lus-
tig, a young man of whom the police
know little except that he comes
from a respectable family and who
has brother who is process serv-
er attached to the district Attorney
office, is dying in Bellevue hospital
today, victim of assasins whose
work recalls the guumen's methods
in the Rosen;hal murder more than a
year ago.
Lustig is believed to have been
lured to "Humpty'' .lacksan's coffee
house by woman last night. The
couple had just taken seat at a
table when the woman suddenly left
and Lustig started after her. He
found his exit barred by four men
with revolvers cleaning. They all
fired and three OF the four shots took
effect. A big black touring car
whose motor was being started just
as the shooting occurred provided
means of escape for the gunmcn and
they were speeding away before the
policemen of nearby posts could reach
the scene. The gunmen threw their
revolvers into the street.
The police have no clew to the
identity of the men nor any knowl-
edge of what led up to the mysterious
shooting.

This argument is most Fictitious:

as personal representative of Prcsi-

MIR. Lind Is practically an unknown
quantity among the American colony.
Mexican officials refrain from max
ing any comment on his appointment,
giving as excuse the unofficial char

The acceptance Of Ambassador
Wilson's resignation did not cause
any great surprise here as it has been
generally expected that his views
would prevent his retention of the

The retiring ambassadors course
during the exciting days OF February
