New York, Sept. 15.-In the hope of
branding as an impostor, Rev. Hans
Schmidt, the alleged confessed
slayer, of Anna Mueller, New York s
river murder mystery, the church au-
thorities began a sweeping investiga-
tton Of Schmidt's record and preten-
tions to ordination. In a cell in the
2 tombs, with his coat as pillow,
Schmidt slept soundly following his
alleged confession last night, in which
he is said. to have told the police he
killed his victim as she lay in bed,
cut up the body in bath tub in the
apartment where he had established her,
wrapped it in five bundles and drop
ped the bundles in the Hudson river.
To the prison chaplain Schmidt is
said to have made the following dec
iaration: Il was directed to kill her
by st. Elizabeth, who is my patron, as
sacrifice to Abraham in blood"
The police believe, however, that he
killed her because she was TO be a
mother, and that the girl accepted as
genuine the marriage ceremony
through which she went with the al
legged slayer in February and in which
he was both priest and bridegroom.
With a view to clearing the mystery
surrounding the murder of 7-year -old
Aliila Ael1eHeT, Wnose IHutlldlSu pouy
was found in quicklime in the base
ment of church In louisville over
two years ago, the police are seeking
to obtain from Schmidt some state
ment of what he might know of this
crime. From August, 1909, till March,
1910, Schmidt visited Louisville Jo-
seph Vending, janitor of the church,
is now serving life term for the
crime, but stoutly denies his guilt.
Little is known of Schmidt, save his
own claim that he was born in Ger
many in 1881, was educated there and
was ordained at Meinz and came here
in 1905. ....
In the flat occupied for five days by
Schmidt and the girl, detectives found
printed cards which indicated the
priest masqueraded as a surgeon. The
body was skillfully dismembered.

Of Alma Kellner in Louisville, Dec. 5, 1909

according to the police and the dis
trict attorneys Office, Schmidt's con-
fession was full and absolute. In it
ne is quoted as saying that he killed
his companion with butcher knife
and cut up the body with the knife
and saw. The 4deed was committed
while the woman slept, shortly after
midnight on Sept. 2, in an apart
ment in Bradhurst avenue, where the
priest had placed her five days be-
fore.
When her heart had ceased beating,
according to, the alleged confession,
Schmidt carried the body from the
bed to the bathroom and placing it
IN the tub, began his CORY task of cut
ting 1t UP. With the keen knife and
the saw he cut off the head, arms and
legs. Still fearful of detection, he
then cut the body in two
Five bundles, wrapped in bed clothes

apartment house with a bundle to
cross the Hudson river to the Jersey
shore. Five times he leaned over the
stern of the ferryboat, in midstream,
and gently gave the river his burden.
Then he returned to his church.
The stains of the girls blood still

tives searched the Bradhurst avenue
apartment today. Schmidt told the
police he had taken the mattress on
which she lay when dealt the death
bloW, under cover of darkness, to

In the apartment the police found

Great Increase Marks

Noticeable Increase IN Enrolment Of All Fargo and Moorhead
Institutions Of Higher Learning Over That Of Last Year
North Dakota Agricultural College and Fargo College Both
Opened Today-Rgishation Heavy at Both Institutions
Schools in Moorhead Look for Big Increase Norma

THE outlook is very encouraging"
continued DR.. Creegan, "and the indi-
cations are that this will be an excep-
tional year. For the first day the reg
go college, in the Junior and senior
respondence prior to the opening of the
year would indicate to an even heavier
day tomorrow"
Students have enrolled at Fargo COL
lege today from the University Of Wis
consin and also from Bala college in
Wales .
The enrolment at the Moorhead
normal is '304 and more are entering.
Concordia opens Wednesday and 1t
would appear that the attendance this
year will surpass all@previous years.
At Fargo College,
Freshman troubles are over at Far
go college, as far as registration is
concerned.
The new arrivals have started their
college careers, and viii devote the
next week to getting acquainted with
the other students.
Today was registration day, and a
large number of strange faces were
seen on the hill. The Fargo High
school graduates who enrolled at the
college were heartily greeted by their
former principal, now known as Dean
Robinson.
DIR. Creegan announced this morn
ing that the first chapel exercises of
the year would occur tomorrow morn
ing at 9:45. The regular recitations
will commence tomorrow afternoon.
The first few days will necessarily be
devoted to the selection Of courses of
study, and securing books and other
necessities.
From all indications it is believed
that the attendance this year will be a
record breaker. The campus has been
kept in good condition all summer,
and everything is in good condition
for a busy year President Creegan has
been in the city all summer engaged
in the interests of the college. and has
arranged a very high class list of in
structors for this year The new pro-
fessors are all on the grounds and
meeting the new students who are
giving them cordial "F. G. Welcome''
AS soon as the preliminary arrange
ments have been made, a call will be
issued for football candidates. A mum :
Der OF the veterans were seen this
morning, all of whom were soreIy dis

to endeavor to- make the best OF it and

A most perceptible increase over
tional institutions of higher learning
was marked today at the opening OF
the collegiate year.
The registration Offices at both the
North Dakota Agricultural college and
Fargo college, which threw open their
doors again today for another year
are very optimistic over the outlook.
Indications point to a remarkable in
crease in both institutions.
( At the North Dakota Agricultural
college, while it is yet too early to
ascertain the exact number of new
students, 1t was stated by Registrar
Parrott that indications pointed to a
b ner cent increase over the enroll
,,lent of a year ago. The prospects
are equally bright at the, college on
the south side of the city.
Many From Minnesota.
This is only the first day of regis
tration at both colleges and tomorrow
will bring many more to the Offices
| Of the registrars. Mr.. Parrott stated
the large number from out of the
state enrolling at the Agricultural
college this year was particularly no.
ticeable.
Many have come from Minnesota.
Graduates from the high schools Of
Minneapolis, Crookston, Staples, st.
Cloud and other Minnesota points are
among those who have entered North
Dakota's big farm school.
"We feel the outlook is particularly
bright for big year" said Mr.. Par
rott. "The total enrolment today far
exceeds that of last year and from
every indication it will be exceedingly
heavy tomorrow"
Entering Upper Glasses.
President Creegan of Fargo college
said the first day of registration at
the institution on the hill was very
encouraging, particularly as many
were entering from other larger uni-
yersities in the upper classes.
Usually we loose a goodly number
OF our students each year just as
they are entering their Junior and
senior years. said DR.. Creegan. but
this year 1t is different. We have
had many registrations from other
colleges, some much larger than Far
60 college in tht junior and senior
years. This is without precedent In
the history of the institution.
