Murdered i'm South
Nashville Lawyer Thought
Victim of Robbers; Re-
wards of $1,000 Offered
by State and Family

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Aug. 30.--Robin
J. Cooper, Nashville attorney, whose
trial for the killing of former United
States Senator Edward w. Carmack,
during the celebrated pistol duel be-
tween his father, Colonel D. B. Cooper,
and Carmack in 1908, attracted country
wide attention, has been murdered here
under mysterious circumstances.
Cooper's body was taken from Rich
land Greek to-day, soon after his blood
stained automobile had been found on
q bridge near his home in the fashion
able Belle Meade Park action. The
skull had been crushed, but there were
evidences that a violent struggle had
taken place.
A coroner's inquest late to-day de-
veloped no clews to the murderer or
murderers, but the police are proceed
ing on the theory that Cooper was
Iured from his home by robbers. This
theory is based on evidence that
Cooper drew $4,000 from a bank a
short time before he disappeared
Thursday night.
Beaten Before Robbery
The authorities think the lawyer was
bridge over the creek and there killed
Physicians who examined the body said
the small amount of water found IN
the lungs was evidence that Cooper
was dead when dropped into the creek.
Mrs. Cooper, who is a daughter of
Milton II. Smith, president of the Louis
willie e. Nashville Railroad, has been
visiting relatives in Louisville, and her
absence accounts for the fact that the
disappearance of her husband did not
become known until to-day.
Governor Roberts has offered a re-
ward of $500 for the arrest and con-
viction of the murderers. This later
was supplemented by an offer Of SIM
liar amount oy the family.
The killing of former Senator Car
mack grew out of the race between
Carmack and former Governor Patter-
son for Governor in 1908. Colonel
Cooper, father of the lawyer. was one
of the closest advisers of Patterson,
and ill-feeling between him and Car
mack developed during the political
campaign.
After the election the two met on
the street and exchanged shots Young
Cooper was with his father and fired
the shot that caused Carmack's death.
Both father and son were convicted of
murder in the second degree, but the
state Supreme Court reversed the YER
dict as to the son and remanded his
case for new trial. When young
Cooper was brought to trial again the
charge was dropped.
Colonel Cooper never served any
part Of his sentence, having been par
doned by Governor Patterson.

German Spy Who
Fled From Bellevue
Is Now i'm Mexico
Duquesne Fooled New York
Police by Telling Truth
i'm Letter Sent Here just
After He Made His Escape

Captain Fritz ]. Duquesne, German
spy suspect, soldier Of fortune and
fugitive from Justice since the early
morning of May 26 last, when he es-
capped from the prison ward in Bellevue
Hospital, although surgeons had said
he was a helpless paralytic, is some
where in Mexico, according to detec-
tives who have been searching for
him.
Detectives Ford and Cohane, who
have been trying to find Duquesne,
also known as "Frederick Fredericks"
and captain Claude Stoughton," said
yesterday they believe the adventurer
told the truth in letter sent to this
city shortly after his escape. In it
Duquesne said he was carried by au-
tomobile to a waiting airplane and
flew to Mexico Immediately after he
got out of the hospital.
The police working on the case
thought this letter ruse and admitted
time hunting for the adventurer in
this city. Now, they declare, 1t was
double cross" and contained the truth,
the explorer gambling on the chance
the letter would receive no credence
here and regarding it as the most eff
fective way to throw the police off his
trail.
Duquesne had been awaiting extra
dition to England to answer to q
charge of murder. growing out of the
explosion of q bomb aboard a British
ship. Local authorities, although he
was convicted here for filing q false
claim with n fire insurance company,
had notified British officials they could
have him. His escape followed his re-
moval to Bellevue from the Tombs
Assistant District Attorney Rorke
said yesterday the search would 90 on.
