TRAIL OF MURDERER
LEADS TO THIS CITY
Police Hunt Motor Thief and
Companion Who, Killed Pur-
suing Patrolman
SOUGHT IN BALTIMORE, TOO

All towns between this city and Bal
timore are on the lookout today for the
car containing the two automobile
thieves who yesterday shot and killed
Abner Braun. thirty five years old, n
motorcycle patroIman of Trenton, on
the Bensslem pike Mt Bustleton as he
was about to arrest them.
Flyers were sent out yesterday, by
the Trenton and Philadelphia police
but SO far no clue has been obtained as
10 the whereabouts of the machine.
The Baltimore police have established
the fact that the license numbers Oh the
car were held by Abraham Mendels, of
that city, but that they were stolen from
his machine, which is in a garage at
Baltimore. The murder carr was
Of different make from Mcndcls's ma
chine.
Seven children are fatherless and n
little woman at 1927 Clinton street !.
Trenton, is n widow. as a result of the
tragedy. Braun's death is the second
violent death in the family in several
years. His brother Henry died from
injuries received in boxing bout in
Trenton some years ago. Matched
against Jack Smith, known as the
Terrible Blacksmith. Henry Braun
was so badly beaten in contest in
the old Riding Academy that he never
recovered consciousness.
Braun, who was one of the best liked
patrolmeB in Trenton. had hobby for
farming and chicken raising and had
gone into it extensively on his one acre
lot Mt Clinton and Stenton streets. He
also occasionally drove jitney between
Trenton and Camp Dix.
Braun had followed the thieves, who
were riding in a.stolen car at terrific
speed. from Trenton. Near the avia
tion field, on the Bensalem pike a
Bustleton. he caught up with the ma :
chine. He swerred his motorcycle to the
side Of the big car and called upon the
| two men to stop. One of the occupants
| leaned over the side of the car and
pointing an automatic at the policeman
! fired.
Five shots hit the policeman and hi,
motorcycle toppled to the side of the
road where he was found dead few
moments later,

they turned into Castor road and were

THINKS WILSON MAY
RUN IF LEAGUE FAILS
Democratic Chairman Cum
mings Foresees Third Candi-
dacy if Covenant Is Rejected
CALLS G. o. P. REACTI0NARY

Chicago, May 2S.-President Will
sons candidacy for third term will
be determined largely by the fate of
the league of nations, in the opinion of
Homer s. Cummings. chairman of the
Democratic national committee. who
came TO Chicago today to preside at
two days session of that body.
while | have no information re-
garding President Wilson's intentions
about becoming a candidate for third
term, believe that the question largely
rests on the fate of the league of M =
tons said Chairman Cummings. IF
the league of nations should by any
chance be defeated, and this to my mind
is unthinkable, the pressure brought to
bear on the President to run ngain
would be very great and | feel certain
that he would be re- elected. If the
league of nations is successful ] do not
think the pressure would be nearly as
great.
In the absence of definite word from
President Wilson on the subject there
was little gossip of candidates among
the party leaders. The names most fire.
quently mentioned were William g. Nc
Adoo. former secretary of the treasury
and A. Mitchell Palmer, United States
attorney general, who will address the
committee tomorrow night
Every state was represented by either
committeeman or proxy when
Chairman Cummings called the body tc
order in session which formally
marks the opening of the presidential
campaign of 1920.
Reactionaries Leading Republicans
Chairman Cummings praised the rec
ord OF progressive achievements Of tht
Democratic national administration anC
declared that the Republican party
again is falling under reactionarS
leadership as indicated by the recen
organization of Congress.
He urged a closer co operation be
tween the different departments of th
party organization in preparing for th
next national campaign and referred {,
the important part women will take il
future political activities.
He said he expected to visit ever
state in the union before returning {
New York in August. Party headquar
ters, he added, would remain in Wash
ington until the opening of the 1872
campaign, when they would be remove
to New York. II was probable that
sub headquarters would be opened i
Chicago and perhaps other cities later
In a few days Mr.. Cummings will ap
point number of committees TO tax
up active work for the next presidents
campaign.
