LOSES SUIT TO SELL
AL ADAMS'S GRAVE
Widow Asked to Move Bodies
Of Policy King and Children
From MausOleum.

Mrs. Isabella Victoria Adams, widow
OF Al Adams, the famous policy king
OF New York, lost her suit yesterday
in the Supreme Court in The Bronx
for permission to remove the body OF
her late husband from the expensive
plot in. Woodlawn Cemetery in order
that she might sell the cemetery prop
erty.
The widow OF the man whose fame
once extended over the entire coun-
try and from whom she received more
than 81, 0O6, 900 told the court that the
war in Europe had so depleted her
revenues that she wished to sell the
mausoleum and the family plot. In it
are buried her husband, her son. her
daughter and a grandchild.
When Adams died in 1906 he left
real estate IN New York city that was
said to be worth $2,5OO.0O0. He was
known as one OF the closest men who
ever lived in the gambling circles of
the city and the big estate was all
taken from the pockets Of the poor
by means of the policy game.
The Woodlawn plot was bought in
1899 70 r4$.o0o and the mausoleum cost
81, 900.
No opposition to Mrs. Adamss pro-
posal was interposed by her four Sons.
Two daughters, however objected.
The sale also was opposed by the
cemetery authorities. Mrs. Adams
lives at 107 West Seventy fourth
street
Adams killed himself in his apart
ment at the Ansonia Hotel October l,
1906. A shot through the head ended
the life Of the man who had been de-
nounced from the bench as the mean
est man in all New York" He began
life as a brakeman and then drifted
into the policy game. He coined money
until the late Capt. F. Norton Goddard
started his anti-policy society.
The society procured Adams's con-
viction and an ,indeterminate sentence
to Sing Sing was given TO him in
1908. In October, 1904. he was re-
leased,

1900 FEET UP He
FIGHTS PLANE FIRE
L. S. Filler Creeps Along Wing
to Check Blaze in
Motor.
Special Despatch to TIE Sun.


STAMFORD. Nov. 26.-Creeping out on
the wing OF a big combat plane
equipped with a Hispano-Suiza motor,
John G. Stoll Of Columbus, Ohio. mas
ter signal electrician Of the United
States Air Service. this afternoon gave
Nm exhibition OF daring and pluck here
1900 feet above earth by plying the
contents OF a fire eXtinguisher on a
flaming motor
Smoke and flame were being swept
by the mind into the face of Lieut.. d.
+. Butts, the pilot OF the plane. The
situation of the two men was one OF
great peril. Every second the flames
threatened to consume the wings and
body OF the airship. Lieut.. Butts had
made out the links Of the Woodway
Golf Club and was maneuvring TO
land when the fire became most
threatening.
Unless the flames were checked the
machine was sure TO be, destroyed in
mi5air. II was then that Stoll crept
out on the wing and hanging on with
one hand directed a stream OF chemical
on the blazing motor with the other
Lieut.. Butts maneuvred the craft I'M
Ill lie was to the windward. and then
with Stoll still playing the chemical,
brought the big plane to earth.
The airmen walked away laughing
and after telephoning TO Mitchell Field
Mineola. made themselves comfortable
at the clubhouse to await motor parts
to replace those destroyed in the fire.
The plane was one Of a flight group
Of five that left Mitchell Field last
week TO give exhibitions in Boston,
Springfield. Hartford and other cities
in connection with the United War
Work drive. They were en- route tn
Mineola when engine trouble developed
and the motor CAUGHT fire.

Then Regan would mot talk until his
attorney, Charles Firestone, was pres
ept.
When Firestone appeared the group
included Judge Rosalsky. Mr.. Talley.
Mr.. Koenig and Thomas c. Mcdonald.
the two latter representing the girl.
The talk lasted from 4 o'clock in the
afternoon dntil o'clock yesterday
morning. and every phase OF the case
| was discussed. When court reopened
yesterday Judge Rosalsky adjourned II.
until Friday. merely telling the jury
that circumstances forced him to do
so in the interests of justice. and warn
ing them not to read or talk about the
case. 1t was known then to every one
In court that Regan had confessed, and
soon few details began to circulate.
But the pertinent question of whether
Regan told OF giving the girl money
with which she might have bought
clothes was not answered.
Judge Rosalsky said that It would be
highly improper at this time to give
out the confession, which is being
checked up by the detectives. From
somewhere. however. appeared the fol-
lowing. which purports to be an ex-
tract from the confession:
February 10. at 1 o'clock in the
afternoon. I entered the premises at
50T West Twenty-third street after
arother man, my pal, had gone In for
the purpose OF burglarizing the place.
I went into the basement OF the house
and walked through the basement into
the yard.
Tells of "Paps" Deed.
st returned to the basement and
found my pal struggling with a
woman. saw him strike her with a
stick. I did not strike blow, but tied
a towel around her neck and he pulled
her to a couch. She was gone then.
Her tongue was sticking out. He
struck her again with some bat or
piece Of wood he picked up.
Il thought when 1 saw them strug-
Cling that she was getting the best Of
him, when grabbed this towel from
rack and tied It around her neck. 1
also knotted It at the back. 1 took
some money. two rings and a watch,
and I think q pair OF earrings and a
breastpin.
II saw a girl run out of the house,
and think would recognize her
again IL saw her. After ] saw her
one Of the first things 1 did was to get
rid Of the jewelry. threw It into the
river. ...,
II will not tell the name OF the man
who was with me. We had previously
worked together on several occasions
and often found 1t necessary to use
violence, but this was the first time I
was ever mixed up in the killing Of
any one"
District Attorney Swami said last
night that the trial will be resumed
Friday, and that the case for the peo-
pie had not been seriously disturbed
by the confession OF Regan. He in
sisted 1t would be proved that when
the girl was arrested she had money
ana jewelry belonging to Mrs. Hamel.
He pointed out also that the cast made
Of Mrs. Hamel's teeth fitted the cuts
on the girls arm.
As weak parts OF Regan's confess
sion the District Attorney pointed to
his story that he was merely a lookout
and that the Baksa girl was in the
room fifteen minutes before he, Regain,
went there.
