NO KIDDIES. NO FLAT,
NEW DETROIT PLAN

DETROIT. April 5.-Detroit Is to have a
$500, 900 apartment house In which no
childless family will DO able to obtain

ton.
An apartment house in the heart Of
q crowded city Is not the best place in
the world to rear Children said DR..
Benson. ANY one Will admit that, but
there are thousands of families whose
circumstances force them to live in such
places.
1.-THE apartment house owner refuses
to permit such families to occupy his
building II they have children. Pos
sibly they have some arguments on their
side, but do know the children should
be cared for. and that Is what We are
going to do for just as many Of them as
we can. No family without. children
will be permitted in It. A premium is
to be placed upon children"

LIGHT ON WILKINS MURDER.
BefuddIed Man Reported Tragedy
to ChauHeurs.

A befuddled stranger approached two
taxi chauffeurs at Eighth avenue and
l25th street the night that Mrs. Julia
Wilkins was killed In her Long Beach
home and told them in a confused way
OF the murder. Charles N Wysong, at
torney for DR.. Walter Keene wilkins.
held for the murder of his wife, made
this announcement at Mineola to-day.
He said that he~had been in touch with
the chauffeurs that they had made an
affidavit as to the truth of the story
and that they would be two OF the most
important witnesses for the defence on
the trial of DR.. wilkins.
The stranger. according to the chauf-
feurs, approached them about / AS In
the morning. some four hours after Mrs.
Wilkins met her death. They took him
to be either a dope fend or a drunken
vagabond and told him to beat 1t" when
he asked where he could get drink He
thereupon fourished roll OF bills and
had himself driven to the Hotel Brad
dock near by. As they put him in one
OF the cabs he muttered that n sensa-
tional murder had been committed at
Long Beach, and that they would read
about It In the morning.
Mr. Wysong finds that a number OF
men registered at the Braddock at the
time specified and has been unable to get
further trace of the mysterious individ-
ual. though he is making every effort to
find him.

MANY REQUESTS FOR MISSING
Ending of Casualty Lists Puts
Extra Burden on X. of c.

Since the final casualty list was issued
by the. War Department there has been
a notable increase of inquiries regarding
missing soldiers at the Knights of Co.
lumbus missing soldiers bureau. 461
Fourth avenue. Relatives and friends
or soldiers. relieved at not finding in the
casualty lists names Of those sought, are
turning to the Knights of Columbus bu-
reau in an endeavor to locate missing
men"
Up to date the X. OF C. bureau has
proved 100 per cent. efficient, having
finally located every soldier or sailor
sought. Leo P. Begley is in charge of
the bureau.
Investigation has proved that the chief
obstacle in the way OF relatives keeping
informed Of the whereabouts OF soldiers
is the order issued to a soldier that after
he starts for a debarkation camp he is
not to write and tell his friends when he
expects to arrive home. A soldier re-
ceiving this debarkation order thinks he
Is going home at once, but II frequently
happens that he Is sent from point to
point, and weeks, sometimes months.
elapse before he steps aboard trans
port homeward bound.
But after receiving his first orders he
is supposed not to write home. That
explains. in many cases, in fact in a
majority OF cases. the silence which
causes a soldiers relatives to worry and
fear something has happened to him.
The Knights of Columbus bureau for
missing soldiers has yet to find a case Of
a soldiers death which had not been re-
ported to relatives.

SOUGHT GUARANTEE
FOR POLES BEHAVIOR.
Germans Feared Ciash {
They Entered Danzis.

The conference at Spa between Mar
shall Foch and Matthias Ersberger. head
of the German Armistice Commission,
resulted from the tentative refusal OF .ne
Germans to meet tho demand Of the al
lied Powers that the three divisions OF
Polish troops In France under Gen. Hal.
Ter be permitted to go TO Polapd through
tho port Of Danzig. The Germans ofS
fered other ports in east Prussia ene
Pomerania for the use of the Poles, ene
during the negotiations just conciudeo
according to German advices on FRIDAY
the Germans proposed that Gen. Han.
leTs forces be taken by the land routs
from Luneville. France, across Germany
to Poland.
The German attitude regarding ths
proposed landing at Dansie had osen
that the troops might clash with the pops
ulation, but Berlin dispatches on April
stated that tho Government had ins
formed the party leaders that the Polish
troops might be landed In DsnziE II ths
Entente would furnish guarantees foS
their good behavior.
The armistice agreement Of Novonber
II provided that the Allies should have
free access "to the territories evacuated
by the Germans from their eastern from
tier either through Danzig or by the
Vistula, in order to convey supplies TO
the populations of those territories ana
for the purpose Of maintaining order.
From the outcome of the Spa confers
ence, as reported in yesterdays despatch.
! 1t seems probable that the allied repre-
sentatives insisted as a matter OF princi-
pie and consistency that the Germans
keep their agreement regarding the use
OF Danzig, and that at least part of tn
Polish troops will be sent into Poland
through that port, while tho others will

WOMAN AND DOG
DIE mid WEALTH
Barbara Schaefer Clothed in
Mems Rags Stuffed With
Bills.
GOWNS PACKED AWAY
Newark Recluse Found Suffo-
Gated With Pet in House
Of Mystery.

Tho strange life Of Barbara Schaefer
ended yesterday morning in her strange
house Mt sO3 Morris avenue, Newark.
Even the fremen and policemen who
broke open the house to find her dead
beside her black and tan terrier. both
suffocated, shivered at the weird sur
roundlngs. The woman lay on the floor
dressed in rags Of mems clothing. though
room in the upper part OF the house
was almost Allied with boxes in each OF
which was a carefully folded woman's
gown. Every pocket Of the ragged
things she wore held a comfortable roll
Of bills. Yet two chairs, table and
two stoves were the only sticks Of fur
niture in the three story house.
The firemen entered to extingulsh a
small FIRE. 1t had already gained such
Roadway that one OF the woman's shoes
had been burned from her foot. The
kitchen in which she lay was piled high
on all sides with newspapers, until there
was barely room to move about.
The police are devottng their efforts to
locate the woman's brother. Richard f.
Schaefer, a retired brick dealer. They
learned that he was a member OF the
National Turnverein and that he came
to the Morris avenue house every Sun
day night for years to take a bath. He
always brought with him his own towel
and soap. He did not appear last Sun
day, the neighbors said. and the police
so far have not been able to locate him.
Miss Schaefer, who was about SO years
old. had not left the house in two years,
according to the neighbors. They said
fhaN ha rhtldran
sent them to buy provisions for her. One
| OF the rooms on the ground floor was
plentifully stocked with eatables. An
other room held more than a ton OF coal.
Beside the dead woman and dog on a
chair in the kitchen lay two fresh loaves
| Of bread ami some crackers, yet the
cooking utensils in the kitchen bore no
evidence OF having been used for a long
time. except for two large iron pots
which stood filled with water in the
kitchen sink
! The kitchen was the only room in the
house that showed any signs OF having
been inhabited. 1t contained two stoves
one dirty and covered with a cobwebbed
| accumulation Of years A policeman
searching for papers happened to lit
one Of the lids Of this old stove. Be
| meath II he found a cloth bag containing
large sum in new bills and silver
Fifty dollars in new bills was In one OF
| the dead woman's pockets carefully
wrapped in newspaper. In other pockets
were found Ave we'll filled pocketbookf
each tied with string.
| Apparently accumulation of old maya
zines and newspapers was one of the
woman's habits. Almost every corner OF
the second floor was sta cked with them
Most Of them had remained undisturbed
long enough to accumulate thick layer

BEACH CAFE OWNERS
GET LIQUOR PERMITS
They Are Confident President
Will Rescind Dry Rule.

On the theory that you never can tell,
and that anything Is worth trying once,
proprietors OF shore cafes at the Rocka-
ways and along the sandy slopes OF
jamaica Bay are taking a chance that
his stay In France may swing President
Wilson away from the idea that bone
dry prohibition would be a good thing
for this country on and after July !.
They have such faith that the Presi-
dent will not turn deaf ear to the howl
about prohibition when he gets back
from the land of wine and absinthe
that they are backing their belief up
with money, and fifty of them, includ-
Ing the proprietors of most Of the sum-
mer hotels which are getting ready to
open for the summer, have paid S3lS
each into the hands Of Theodore r.
wilenack, Deputy Excise Commissioner
of Queens.
The money is for licenses to dispense
booze and, considering the fact that Tor
that sum they can operate under state
protection for only six months. their
confidence appears to be deep seated
That is, in other years they could
onerate for six months under such IL
censes, but since the season at the sea-
shore really does not get under way UNI
I'll Memorial Day, May 80, and prohibi-
ton comes in q month and a day later
this year, when they would have &c
quit, Mr. wilenack thinks they are
taking a long chance.
However, the proprietors told him they
thought the President when he get'
back, will understand clearly that tht
people of this country don't want pro
hibition and will rescind the Execuuve
order. If that happens they could operate
for the rest OF the summer, since tine
Federal prohibition amendment does moi
become operative until long after the
shore residences have been boarded ur
and the hammocks tucked away In motf
balls.
