Barr.caded In a house in Whining
ton. Del. all sides OF which, were
guarded by wary city police. Homer
Cleveland Virgins. the eighteen-yeaF.
old murderer. who scaled tne walls OF
the eastern penitcntiary during the
night OF Aug. 20, killed himself IN THIS
city after holding at bay large part
oil the police force of the city in bat
tie which lasted nearly two hours.
In so doing he carried out decision
he announced to his mother only few
hours before
They're after me" he said, but
they'll never get me alive"
Immediately after the police broke
down the door Of the room in which
the youthful desperate made his last
stand and found him dead. they dis
covered evidence which. they say,
shows conclusyely that Virgins was
the lone highwayman who held up the
cashier al the ear barn OF the VII
mington 4 Philadelphia Traction com
pany several weeks ago. and took from
him $500.
In wallet in his pocket was found
sj6O7j. \ long black leather case
when opened. disclosed $3.50 In new 81
bills In money belt worn beneath
his clothing was found $500 in Sio and
$20 bills Besides this there was
S2075 in change in his pocket.
From the house AT Fourth and Ship
ley streets. where Virgins came to his
end. the police went to the home oi
his mother. Mrs Lillian Margaret Nc
Dermott. 2i7 South Harrison street. In
the cellar they found tin bucket. In
which was S63G.S0, principally In nick
els. dimes. quarters and half dollars
such as would be collected by conduc
tors of trolley cars. Buried near the
chicken house In the back yard. still
more money was recovered. the tota
amounting to sl22G.
This discovery was followed by the
arrest OF Mrs. McDermott. George II
Colt. brother-in-law of the dead
slayer: Harry Virgins. brother and
John Taylor. friend, who was at the
McDermott home.
Before he died Virgins duplicated
in part. the crime for which he was
sent TO the penitentiary. On June 26
1912. he shot and killed Thomas Dowl
ing. a policeman. who attempted TO ar
rest him at the pawnshop at Sixth and
Vine streets. Philadelphia. where the
youth was trying TO dispose of some
stolen silverware For this he was sen
fenced 10 twenty years In prison.
During rush by the police In the
early stages of the battle the trapped
murderer sent bullet into the left
breast OF Sewell Scott. a policeman
wounding him severely Physicians al
the Delaware hospital said that mis-
condition was serious. but II is expect
ed that Scott will recover. The bullet
passed entirely through his body.
When the police finally broke into
the room from which Virgins had de
fed them with leaden hail. they
found him lying upon the floor. his
head resting against the bed. In the
stiffened fingers OF each hand was
grasped a revolver. A bullet hole
showed over the left temple. and the
face was bathed In blood.
