Reach, New Yorker, wealthy, social
favorite and scion of a prominent
family, answered mot guilty" today
= the charge OF assaulting his wife
With intent to kill, opening what
vas expected to be the legal unravel-
ling Of one of the queerest OF "mys-
terry cases.
Reach was charged by the county
with cutting his wife's throat. Mrs.
Beach was expected to refute the
charge when she took the stand.
Il was on the night Of February 2S,
Ia1s that Mrs. Beach was stabbed in
the neck while in the side yard of the
Beach winter home. She says she
lett her husband in the house, going
to the door to let pet dog out. Her
version is that a mysterious man at
lacked her few feet from the door;
/ d man who plunged knife in her
throat and pulled her diamond ear
rings from her ears. Beach said he
heard his wife's screams, and running
outside, saw a man fleeing down the
street Mrs. Beach's wound required
nineteen stitches to close it. The
cash barely missed the jugular vein.
Beach Version.
The Beachs' version Of the attack
was accepted at first. Then Detective
Bapgtn, of Atlanta, investigated
Mrs. Beach's diamonds had been
found In the yard the morning after
the attack. A. K. Lorenz found a

ters today, made and sent the bomb
that killed Mrs. Grace Walker Tay-
lor in her flat on West Seventy-sev-
enth street a year ago.
This confession followed that Far

killed Mrs. Bernard Herrera Sunday
night in the apartment house, where
he was janitor, and the woman's hus-
band superintendent. Farrell also de-
|clared he had made the bomb that
was sent to Judge Otto Rosalsky last
March and which exploded in the
judges partment, while being handled
by an agent from the bureau of com
bustibles. Farrell said he did not
mail the bomb but gave it to a con-
federate named Tony to mail. He In
sisted that he had forgotten Tony's
last name, and had not seen him in
months.
