Story of Alleged Accomplish Re-
veaIs Priest Who Killed Anna
AumuIIer as Counterfeiter.

NEW YORK, Sept l6.-In the be-
lief that he has committed other muir
ders than that of Anna Aumuller, the
girl whose torso was found in the
Hudson River, the police to-day plan
ned to put Hans Schmidt the priest
who confessed TO Staying the girl,
through an examination Intended to
force him to reveal ever s1< ct MS
shrouded past.
That Schmidt was a counterfeiter,
as well as a murderer. came to light
to-day through the arrest short
ly after midnight of Ernest Ar
thur Muret. a bogus dentist, and Ber-
tina zech, his girl assistant
1t also was developed by the Cath
Ollie clergy that Schmidt was an i'm
poster, having forged the credentials
as a priest which he used in this
country.
Muret, under merciless grilIing by
the police, not only admitted that he
knew both Schmidt and the murdered
girl, but also confessed that Schmidt
mad been a partner Of his in a coun-
terfeiting scheme.
After the arrest the police raided
Muret's fiat and also another fat
which 1t had been found was rented
jointly last June by Muret and
Schmidt. In the latter fiat was found
a complete counterfeiting outfit, in
Guiding chemicals, tools, a printing
press, several half-destroyed bogus
bills and a loaded revolver.
In the fiat in which Muret lived
We're found a number Of surgical
tools, such as are used to perform il
legal operations.
Girl Held as Witness.
Whether Muret VIII he charged
with direct connection with the muir
der and the dismemberment of the
Aumuller girls body is matter
which the police would not discuss
to-day They claim they are holding
the Zech girl as a material witness,
while Murets confession that he at
tempted counterfeiting is sufficient to
hold him.
The discovery of the counterfeiing
establishment will Of course bring the
United States Government into the
priests case.
Muret told the police to-day that
shortly before the death Of Anna
Aumuller the girl had visited Central
Park and was bHstered by poison
ivy
When he asked Schmidt September
4 three days after the murder, how
the girl was, the priest replied, Re
says, "Oh, she's in great shape. Poi
son ivy will never bother her again"
Priest Sleeps We'll.
Schmidt spent a restful night in 1is
cell. The enormity of his crime does
not seem to bother him. He ate
hearty breakfast and seemed calm
and undisturbed.
He still refuses to see reporters
denying interviews on the ground that
no one can understand the acts o.
great men"
While police officials, the Coroner,
and the Prison Warden held different
views concerning Schmidt's sanity.
the prisoner continued to ridicule the
idea that he is insane.
y am sane: there never mas been
any insanity in my family" he re-
peated time and again.
Warden FaIlon declares Schmidt is
the most dangerous lunatic confined

Shot Creates Panic
In House Of Commons.

LONDON, July 11.-An evident at
tempt at assassination occurred in
the House of Commons to-day when
a man in the gallery for spectators
drew a revolver and fired shortly aft
er the session of the House opened.
A parliamentary policeman who was
nearby grasped the man and wrench
ed the pistol from his hand before he
could fire again.
One sensational report which was
circulated was that the man was
fanatic on the topic of suffrage and
had attempted to assassinate Pre-
mier Asquith because of his opposi-
ton to the suffrage propaganda. An
other report was that the man had
been hired by the militants to make
a demonstration, and that the bullet
was not intended for any one in par
ticular
The other spectators in the gallery
were thrown into panic by the shoot
ing and a mad scramble for the exits
ensued. Many were knocked down
and trampled. On the floor of the
house there was high excitement. So
great was the uprOar that all bust
ness was suspended.

HEALEY BUILDING
WORKMEN OUT
ON STRIKE
The Employment of Non-Union
Painter Stops Work on TO-
Story Structure.

Attempts Of the r. NJ. Walker Com
pany, general contractors. to employ
non-union painters and electricians on
the HeaIey Building brought on a
general strike Friday afternoon. One
non-union painter started to work at
o'clock, and his appearance was the
signal for a walk-out. Two minutes
later not a man was working on the
building.
The skeleton of the Healey Build
ing, sixteen stories above ground. had
Just been constructed by the Steel
workers, who had flung an American
flag to the breezes high in air when
the topmost beam was riveted.
None but union men had worked on
the building. Electricians and paint
ers were expected to begin their in
terror work at noon Friday, but when,
the hour arrived no agreement had
been reached between the general
contractors and the Painters AMI
and Electricians Unions.
Business agents of the unions con-
ferred with the R. NJ. Walker Compa,-
ny between noon and o'clock, but no
agreement could be reached. Mean
while. the contractors had begun ne
gotiations with non union men.
Federation officers have resumed
negotiations with the contractors
looking to the employment of union
electricians and painters. 1t is ex-
pected the differences will be adjusted
and union workmen will return to
their jobs Saturday.
