Threat to Kill Is

Brooklyn Man Is Stabbed to
Death When Friend Failed
to s'Fork Over''; Alleged
Assailants Are Caught

James Shea, Of 675 Bedford Avenue,
Brooklyn, was warned to split fifty
fifty roll of $40 which he found a week
ago or he would be "done up" The
ultimatum of the two men who demand
ed the $40 was to expire at 9:3O last
night. At 9:31 Louis on Derling, of
815 Bedford Avenue, friend who had
throughout the evening, was stabbed to
death on the populous sidewalk of Bed
ford Avenue.
Won Derling and Shea had dined to-
gether. They had visited motion pict-
ure house and together, little before
the fateful hour, they entered CANDY
shop at $50 Bedford Avenue. The
clock on the candy shop wall marked
$40, and Shea and his companion,
vastly relieved, we're preparing to go
home, when Willie Butler, twelve years
old, of 1913 Penn Street, burst into the
place.
Hey" he cried, there's two guys
outside want to see you"
Won Derlng looked at his watch and
turned its dial without comment tow
ard Shea. The candy shop clock was
ten minutes fast. 1t was Just $3.50.
Small Boy Senses Drama
The two men sauntered out, Willie
Butler at their heels with boys un-
canny knowledge of big events pend
ing. Will joined his friends George
Brenick, of 30 Lynch Street, and Jack
Rode, Of 56 Harrison Avenue, at the
curb, where two men waited beside
the swiftly flowing stream of automo-
biles for two others who sauntered d
toward them from the candy shop.
Willie had barely time to whisper
"Somethin' doinH" before it was done.
Tho boys heard harsh command to
fork over" saw Won Derling thrust
himself between Shea and the two men
who made the demand, and then some
thing flashed as one of the two at the
curb struck. The blow was repeated
same instant the two had served notice
to " fork over" took to their heels,
lodging in and out among the way
farers on Bedford Avenue.
Shea raised sudden shout and
started after them. Patrolman Thomas
r. Custer, of the Clymer Street police
station, came up on the run.
That way! shouted Willie to the
beat it up throught Heywar Street,

away The eyes of Roy Smith, his
negro chnuxeur blinked white as the

lied at his elbow.
"It's murder" Custer called through
the window. II have got to use your

Roy proved an adept at sliding the
long car through utterly made uuate
traffic gaps, and the patrolman d.

Beach, said he had talked to the doc
tor about the wife's will a short time
after it was found. He said the doc
tor told him he was glad the will was
found and that he did not benefit by 1t,
because some people were suspicious
Of him.
This will was made prior to DR..
wilkins marriage. The point the au-
thorities are anxious to clear up is
why the will was not placed in the
safe deposit box kept by Mrs. Wilkins.
This safe deposit box has been
opened by the authorities in search
of a later will, but none was found.
complete examination of the con-
tents Of the box could not be made
without the authority of the court.
Attorney Freiss rushed out of Dis
trct Attorney Weeks's office before the
Interrogation was complete. He was
asked:
What have you to say concerning
the examination of your client by the
authorities in connection with the mur-
der Of Mrs. Wilkins? ?"
he nhsSsa hays nSsng Ss to he said sst
ment to be made will come from the
District Attorney. We have been in
structed by him not to discuss the
case"
After the examination it was ex-
planned that DR.. Wilkins had promised
the authorities that he would not leave
the jurisdiction of the state.
81 am not talking about the case at
this time" said District Attorney
Weeks.
DR.. wilkins was taken to the homo
of County Detective Plant in Lynbrook,
where he had his dinner. Later, ac-
companicd by Plant and another de-
tective, he returned to his Long Beach
residence, which is now entirely under
the control Of the District Attorney.
Tomorrow the house will be searched
from top to bottom in an effort to find
the will Mrs. wilkins is said to have
made after her marriage.
The detectives again searched the
home Of DR.. wilkins at 1874 West Sixty
fifth Street, New York. No announce
ment has been made by the authorities
as Go what was sought.
Nassau County officials are anxious
to find Mrs. Wilkins's jewels. When
Detective Plant first searched tho
house he did not find any Of them, and
later, according to detectives, the ply
sician discovered few pieces Of Jew
elry in china closet This closet had
been searched before by the detectives.
The Nassau County grand jury meets
next Wednesday and 1t was intimated
that evidence might be presented to 1t
then.
Coroner Nsu has announced that ho
will start an independent inquiry on

Home of McLane Van Ingen
Broken Into Last Tuesday
and Silverware Stolen
No Clue Is Yet Found
Man Held Up Near River
side Drive; Girl Carry
ing Payroll Is Attacked

Despite the presence of double de-
tails of regular police officers, rein
forced by squads of private watchmen,
burglars continue to operate along
upper Fifth Avenue and the adjacent
side streets with seeming immunity
Their depredations are kept a care
fully guarded secret by the police de-
partment, and it is only occasionally
that an inkling of the degree of law
lessness existing in that part of the
city reaches the ears of the public.
The most recent burglary to become
known occurred on Tuesday night last
at the home of McLane Van Ingen,
1880 Fifth Avenue. Silverware to the
value of about $4,000 was taken by
the thieves before they were fright
ened away by the fact that their own
clumsiness awakened Mrs. Van Ingen.
They Missed Big Chance
The burglars gained entrance to the
house through a window on the first
floor. Less than twenty feet from

jewels valued at over 100000.
Representatives from two private de-
tective agencies as we'll as score Of
men from the East Sixty-eighth Street
police station have been at work on the
case since Wednesday morning. Thus
far they have apparently made no
progress.
Hold-up men have been working un-
molested throughout the city. Early
yesterday, Oscar Schmied, of 72O River
side Drive, was black lacked and robbed
by two highwaymen on West 149th
Street, half way between Broadway
and Riverside Drive. He was badly
beaten and jewelry and money to the
value of $4,000 was taken.
Girls Screams Save Payroll
An attempt on the part of two young
men to hold up Miss Bella Valialo,
seventeen years old, bookkeeper for a
flower and feather merchant at 564
West Broadway, yesterday afternoon
failed. The girl had the weekly pay
roll, amounting to $500, with her.
When the men seized her she
screamed so Justify that Detectives
John j. Kelly and John Finn arrived
in time to prevent the robbery and
arrest the men.
aJ 1oldWd. lWO NlleS from faterSOn,
N. j., four masked bandits held up five
soldiers and q chauffeur. The high
waymen got $1,102 for their efforts
and escaped.
Hold-up men secured $1,000 pay
roll last night within two blocks of the
Hoboken I'd Precinct police station.
John II. Lawrence, a wealthy trucking
man, with an Office at Thirteenth Street
and Clinton Avenue, was in his office
counting the money out to be paid to
his men.
Two men entered the office, and while
one held Lawrence at the point of
pistol the otaer, according to Lawrence,
went behind counter and secured the
payroll. The two then backed out the
front door, directing Lawrence not to
move for FIVE minutes on pain of being
shot.

w. S. S. PERMANENT
FORM OF INVESTMENT

War savings stamps are to be made
a permanent form of popular inv est
ment.
In years to come, after the inan-
cial necessities created by the war are
over, War Savings Stamps, (probably
under another name) and treasury
savings certificates will be sold and
this very desirable form OF invest
ment for persons of limited means will
be continued on a permanent basis.
1t is the opinion of officials Of the
treasury department that the sale OF
these securities has done more to en-
courage thrift in the United States
than anything else that has ever hap
pened and that with the machinery
inaugurated and established it would
be little less than national disaster
to discontinue the sale OF "baby
bonds" in peace times.
This announcement coming from
Secretary of the Treasury Glass
makes plain the policy of the treasury
department to make government saw
ing securities an effective means not
only for aiding the financing of the
government and for the creation OF
new capital so urgently needed at
present for industrial and trade de-
velopment but also for making the
habit of thrift and saving a perma-
nent part of the national life.
