STATES POPULATION
UNOFFICIALLY GIVEN
Many Believe Figures Too

According to unofficial estimates
which have just been complied in
Washington, the population of
Delaware at the present time is
212,489, an estimate increase in
population for the year of 1,781.
The last official enumeration of the
population of Delaware was in 49,
10, when the censusreport showed
the population of the State to be
202,3 1922.
The population of continental
United States, excluding Porto
Rico, Alaska, Hawaii and other in
sular possessions, is estimated at
1O1, ,2O8,315, an increase of 1917
994 or 1.6 per cent during the past
year. The last official enumera-
tion was in 1910 when the popula-
tion of the country was 81, ,972, ,226.
Prominent Wilmingtonians have
declared that the estimate OF the
population of Delaware is too low.
Postmaster James j. English estl-
mates that the population of Will
mington alone has increased sew
eral thousands during the past
wear. He bases his estimate on
the fact that the Wilmington post
office has now about 1000 more de-
livery points than at the same
time last year, and that at each
delivery point there Is an average
of three persons.
Chief of Police George Black OF
Wilmington, also says the estimate
is too low. He bases his estimate
on the number of houses now va
cant in Wilmington as compared
with thenumber vacant at the same

statement imputed to Brown that for
three months prior to the murder Mrs.
Mohr had been after him. to kill her
husband.
Questioned by Counsel for Negroes.
Questions asked by counsel for the
negroes in cross examination of Thorn
as Robbins, chief of police of Barring
ton, were taken as indicating that the
defense was particularly interested in
learning whether George w. Heals,
DR.. Mohrs negro chauffeur, had re-
vo1ver on the night of the murder.
Heals, who was originally held on the
same charge as the other negroes, has
since been allowed to plead nolo con-
tendre to a charge of manslaughter,
and is expected to be witness for
the state.
Chief Robbins in his direct exami-
nation had related how Brown and
Spellman pointed out to him places
on the shore of Echo lake, near the
scene of the tragedy, where they had
thrown their revolvers into the water.
Didn't Healis, the chauffeur, have
a gun at or about the time of the
shooting?" inquired Attorney Lewis.
The prosecuting attorney objected. 81
think the court sees the drift" sug-
gested Mr.. Lewis.
Heals Owned a Revolver.
The Judge was inclined to rule it
out, but after Mr.. Lewis had whispered
something to him the question was
allowed and Chief Robbins stated that
Heals did own a revolver about this
time.
The state then brought out that the
weapon owned by Healis had been
found in DR.. Mohr's garage at New
port after Heals was arrested Mr..
Lewis drew from the chief a state
ment that he did not know whether
Heals had another revolver and had
it with him on the night of the shoot
ing.
Unable to Find RevoIvers.
Chief Robbins said further in cross
examination that the lake bottom had
been dragged with oyster tongs in an
effort to find the reyolvers which
Brown and Spellman are alleged TO
have thrown there. but that the
weapons had not been found.
Mrs. Mohr Betrays Emotion.
The prosecution offered for identifi-
cation the hat which DIR. Mohr wore at
the time he was shot. There is a bullet
hole through it. As the exhibit was
shown to Chief Robbins, Mrs. Mohr
seemed to be unnerved.
Tears flooded her eyes for O. moment,
but she quickly recovered her COM

NEW YORK JEWELLERS
CHARGED WITH SMUGGLING
Herman ]. Dietz g. Son Accused Of
Bringing Diamonds from Canada.

New York, Jan. 14-Herman J..
Dietz, who was diamond dealer at
81 Nassau street, and his son, Charles
Dietz, were placed on trial today be-
fore Judge Hunt in the criminal branch
of the United States district court on
charges of engaging in a conspiracy
to smuggle diamonds into this coun-
try from Canada.
According to Roger b. Wood, assist
ant United States district attorney,
who, with Samuel Hershenstein, is
prosecuting the case, in the years 1911
and 1914 diamonds in considerable
quantities were smuggled across the
border from Montreal and other points
in Canada. An investigation made by
Frank Burke, secret service agent, re-
yealed the fact that diamonds worth
100000 had entered the country with
out tn epayment of duty.
Diamonds ordered by Herman j.
Dietz from ruenweig & Zimmer, of
Antwerp, according to Mr.. Wood, were
sent in furtherance of the scheme to
a certain firm of pawnbrokers of Mon
treal. The jewels, in $25,000 lots, Mr..
Wood says were secretly conveyed
across the international line by agents
of the smugglers, who received from
$50 to 500 on each trip. On occasion,
the indictment charges, Dietz and his
son personally brought diamonds over
from Canada
