INVITED TO SHOOT,
PATROLMAN KILLS
Escaping After Arrest, Prisoner
Dares Pursuer, Who Tried
to Scare" Him.

An obliging policeman is Patrolman
Charles A. Lehnoff, of the Elmhurst
precinct, in Queens. Testfying at a
hearing before Coroner Carl Vogel and
a jury at Jamaica yesterday, he told
how he shot Allen Michels, Of 32 Pear
tree Avenue, Corona, Saturday night
at the latter's request.
ARREST me-" the policeman said
Mchels said to him when he reproved
him for disorderly conduct. Lehnoff
said he did as requested.
Later the pr soner broke away from
the patrolman, other witnesses said
and Lehnoff threatened to shoot unless
he stopped.
GO ahead and shoot" replied
Michels, still running.
A bullet from the policeman's re-
vover brought him to stop and later
he died. Lehnof said he did not aim
at the man, but OILY intended 10 scare
him. The jury decided the shot was
fired in the discharge of duty but was
not entirely justified.
Coroner Vogel held the officer to
await the disposition of magistrate.

Samuel Gompers Of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor repeated to-day his
charge that foreign influence had been
working to make strikes in the United
States, and called on the workingmen
to discountenance any such attempts
Mr.. Gompers made public his cor

vestigated the accusation attributed to
Mr.. Gompers that Officers OF interna-
tional unions had received money to
pull off striker m Bridgeport and else
where in ammunition factories"

unions" wrote Mr. Gompers; nor did
use the word German nor did | men
ton Bridgeport. nor did | refer TO am
munition factories. What | did say
was that authentic information had
come to me that efforts had been made
to corrupt men for the purpose OF
having strikes inaugurated among sea-
men and longshoremen engaged IN
handling American products and man
nlng SHIPS Tor European poFts' thaI the

protest and frown down upon any for
eign interference. no matter by what
motive actuated. particularly when
that motive is Interior and to the det-
riment of the good name, growth and
permanence of our great cause.
That the effort has been made 10
corrupt some of our men for such a
purpose is true, but that the strikes
have been inaugurated is untrue, and
it is untrue because the men who have
given time and service TO the workers
