Detective Lake
Predicts Third
Crime In House

While Harry T. Lake, criminologist
with the city attorneys department,
does not profess to be superstitious,
he asserts that there will have to be
one more crime committed in a GER
tain room in a house at Waialua be-
fore the link is taken off the place"
Akin to the belief that if one fire &C.
ours two more will follow, Detective
Lake expects that the Waialua house
will be the scene of another tragedy
shortly.
. A few days ago, shortly after the
grand jury had met, Detective Lake
and Police officer Ayau went down
to Waialda to measure and make a
map of the room in which Hermo-
comes Alcantara is alleged to have
stabbed and killed Filipino woman
and wounded Filipino man with the
same weapon. Alcantara is now await
ing trial on a charge of first degree
murder and assault with intent to
commit murder
Detective Lake and officer Ayau ar
rived at the place, entered the room
and started to work Lake pulled
out his wire tape-measure, and knelt
down on the floor to find out how
long the side Of the room was. Sud-
denly he paused in his work and spoke
to Ayau.
Say, this place looks awfully ia
: miliar to me-" said the detective.
ESemething tells me l have been here
before" ...
Great deduction work, Lake." re-
piled the amazed Ayau. How do
you figure it out?"
"The width of this room seems ia.
miliar to me-" quoth Harry. Let US
investigate further
And they did and what was revealed
leads Detective Lake to believe that
there will be one more tragedy in
that room soon.
Just about a year ago, says De-
tective Lake, Elena Rojas, Filipino
woman, shot and killed Allejandro
Castro, also a Filipino, in the room
at Waialua. The woman, charged
with first degree murder, was acquit.
ted after she told her story to jury
in Circuit Judge Ashford's court. She
said the Filipino attacked her and
that she shot in self defense.
And l didn't even have to draw a
plan of the room for the present
case" says Detective Lake. 81 al
ready had one on file in my office, the
one l made after Castro was killed.

District Attorney
Calls Rofrano Charges
"Maliciously False"

District Attorney Swami last night
branded Rofrano's charges as mali
ciously false. He said that an inyes-
,igaton would show them to be untrue.
Mr.. Swami. through Alfred J. Tai
Icy. one Of his assistants, issued the
following statement:
"Rofrano was indicted on September
Il. 1918. for murder IN the first de-
gree during the administration Of
Charles A. Perkins. who was appointed
District Attorney by Governor Whit
man.
"Rofrano Immediately fed and re-
NAMED in hiding for nirc months, al
though a reward Of $4,000 was offered
by the city for his capture. lie sur
rendered himself after Judge Swami
had been IN Office five months. On the
trial he claimed that he ran away be-
cause he could not get fair trial
under Mr. Perkins. He testified at the
trial that after Judge Swami took office
he believed that he could get fair
trial and that Judge Swami was a
very square and upright man. who
would gladly listen To any mans com
plant and do justice to the poorest as
we'll "a TO the richest
The charges made are maliciously
false in every particular. as a full in
Nestigatioa of all the facts will show.
Knox was a chauffeur employed in
the Street Cleaning Department, who
testified tina. he once drove Rofrano
20 the home OF Brundini in Brooklyn.
where the murder plot was discussed.
His statement was in the hands Of the
District Attorney long before his name
WAS mentioned on the trial, and he
had taken police officers over the route
which he travelled and pointed out to
them the Brundini house.
The record of the trial will show
that many witnesses Of respectability
were called by the prosecution. and the
claim that Knox was the only respect
able witness is untrue.
NO witness was either inundated
o. subjected TO improper examination.
AS 10 Curica. In June. 1915, he
made statement 10 the District At
torney involving Rofrsno in the muir
der. In September he escaped from
custody and went 20 Newark. where he
met Mr. Wylie. one Of Rofrsno's coun-
sci. 20 whom he made a statement re-
pudia,ing what he had said 10 the Dis
trict Attorney.
