u. 5. Consul Intimates Busi-
ness Rivalry Is Cause
Of Charges
BY Charles P. Stewart.


Buenos Aires, Sept 13.-The United
States consul here has come to the de.
Ffeuse of American business men who
havesbeen accused of questioning deal
ings in South America
The accusations were first made by
the Argentine Industrial Union.. Com
plant was. made also that the National
City bank of New York which has large
dealings in South America, had made
similar charges against certain firms in
the United States.
The consul applied directly to the Ar
gentine Industrial Union for the names
of the firms alleged to have been guilty
of improper practices. Officers of the
union parried with the statement that
they could not reveal the names of the
firms, ner could they made public de-
tails of the transactions complained
of. They suggested that the consul take
the matter up with members of the un-
ion and question them individually.
The consul questioned the practicable.
ity of such method. He pointed out
that the union had made serious
charge against certain United States
business men and declared that in fair
ness to all business men in the United
States with dealings in South America
the union should submit proof of the
acquisition.
Indirectly he impressed the belief
that possibly commercial rivalry had
something to do with the allegations
Possibly he wrote, the acquisitions were
due to competitors who, because they
were competitors, may not always be
able to take an unprecedented view"
The consul has renewed his request on
the union for more details.

Many New York Murders
Haze Startling Sequels
of Innocent Punished

New York, Sept. 14.-With the con.
fcssion OF Joseph Mulholland of the
part he and three other men played in
the murder of Mrs. Elizabeth Nichols
aged wealthy widow year ago, anoth,
er chapter was added to New York Is re.
markable record of chapter convictions
in which every effort is now being
made to show that innocent men were
sentenced TO death or life imprison-
ment.
The confessions of Mulholland and
Arthur Waltonen. arrested in Ironwood
Mich, absolve Onni Talas from actual
participation in the murder of Mrs
Nichols. But Talas, mere youth is now
in Sing Sing sentenced to life impris
onment.
Two other cases which have attract
ed wide attention are those of Charles
F. Stielow, convicted of the murder OF
Charles B. Phelps and the latter's house
keeper and Thomas Bambrick, sen
fenced to death for the alleged murder
of Policeman George Lapping here.
Stielow has been snatched from the
death chair repeatedly and another man
was finally found who confessed to the
murders. though he later repudiated his
statements
Bambrick is sentenced to die tomor-
row morning. He was saved at the last
moment only few weeks ago by a
court order. Owing to the discovery of
new evidence, District Attorney Swami
intimated today he might ask for anoth

er reprieve for Bambrick.
Affidavits have been received indi.
eating that Bambrick may be innocent
Frank Meehan, now in Sing Sing, has
sworn that he saw Dapping killed and
that tall man shot him. Bambrick
measures only five feet five inches
and when taken before Meehan, the
latter swore positively he was not the
man who killed Dapping.
Fifty affidavits were. filed at Albion
n. Y, yesterday intended to show that
Stielow is not guilty of the murders
for which he is sentenced to die. Site
lows confession is declared to have
been dragged from him by third de
gree methods and two Sing Sing physi
clans stated in their affidavits that
Stielow is susceptible to influence of
stronger characters and under threats
would likely say whatever was suggest
ed to him.
The confessions of Mulholland and
Waltonen are regarded by the. police as
completely clearing up the Nichols case,
which has always retained an element
of mystery. A third man implicated is
still at large. Mulholland and Walton.
