led Inspector Faurot to cable to Scot

SCHMIDT ADMITS HE ALSO
KILLED GIRLS BABY

NC" IOIHJ SSPL' TO- 1Ac1Ao
Schmidt, confessed slayer of Anna
Aumuller, admitted today that he
also killed the girls baby, because i
God desired a double sacrifice.
The revelations that are coming to
light regarding Schmidt make him
one of the most inhuman monsters of
the century. He is suspected of hav-
ing killed two other girls and man.
He is believed to have performed il
legal operations, as detectives discov-
cred instruments for this purpose in
his fiat.
1t is know that he robbed his own
church collection, that he picked the
pocket of a visiting priest, that he
was a counterfeiter of $40 and $40
bills, that he forged church creden-
tials and performed mock marriage
ceremonies, and that, posing as a
physician, DR.. Moliere, he sold fake
and illegal medicines.
Detectives have discovered that
Schmidt rented third fiat after he
had killed Aumuller, probably with
the intention of storing clothing
there and other articles that might |
lead to his arrest. Nothing but two
suitcases containing the clothing of
Anna Aumuller and baby clothes |
which she had made, had been placed |
in the fiat.
In spite of the fact that DR.. Muret, |
arrested as an accomplice of Schmidt |
in the counterfeiting scheme, claims |
he first met Schmidt last December,
the detectives have advices from Ger |
many indicating that he knew |
Schmidt in that country. The police |
believe their career of crime dates |
from that time.
Another arrest is expected shortly. |
Letters were found in Schmidt's
trunk, signed Helen" and detectives
are searching for this woman. They
have learned that she was known as
''Helen Green" The letters are writ
ten in very endearing language, and /
