Schloss Is a close friend OF the Drewes
family
Scarcity OF tangible clues is due large
ly 10 the fact that the police were en-
gagged to-day In clearing up a mass OF
mysterious detail that surrounds the
murder and in following up several
statements preferred by residents OF
Oak lane and Germantown as leads to
possible solutions.
one OF those stories was told by +. ;.
Curry, l65 West Sansberry street, Ger
mantown. He said he was about TO re-
tire soon after midnight Sunday morn
ing when he heard a mans voice crying
Murder" He ran to the window and
saw man flash past. Before the sound
OF footsteps died away there was a shot

Another story told the police by three
oak lane women-Mrs. Ellen Reeves and
her daughter and Mrs. Retta Fillmore
concerns pistol shots and cries heard in
the neighborhood Of the lot in which the
body was found. Mrs. Fillmore says
she heard mans cries OF distress
womans shrieks of "Oh. Oh :" and two
shots. Mrs. Reeves and her daughter
said they saw a motor car drive near the
lot. Before that they heard one shot
Both stories are being investigated.
Police think there may have been

dence tended to discount that theory as
well as Drewes's known dislike for femi-

persons were implicated. as the body had
not been dragged.

Taxpayers at Last Public
Hearing by Board.

Mayor Hylan told teachers from Hun

Of Estimate yesterday for pay increase
that the city had got to the end of its
financial rope and could not go on adding
% the amount of the budget. Following
that statement, the board continued in
session al, day. revising and patching up
the budget Most OF the revising was up
ward. Several yards were spliced on
TO the end of the rope before the day was
over.
Protests, loud and clear. came from the
taxpayers at the boards last public
hearing on the budget. The officials have
until tonight to complete the tentative
figures and thereafter cuts may be made,
hut there can be no increases. Then the
Board of Aldermen. controlled by Tam
many, like the Estimate body. can take
a slash at the figures, but can only
IT AXE reductions. The Mayor has the
final word, as he may veto anything the
Aldermen do.
When Misses Louise Hart and NJ
Wildmayer. representing the faculty OF
Hunter College, asked the board to adj
-ust salary differences existing in the
budget. the Mayor said testify:
II am not going to vote for any more
salary increases above $1,000 unless the
circumstances are extraordinary. You
ladies don't realize the situation or you
don't care. We are at the end OF our
rope we are up against the constitution
IL we got into trouble for violating the
constitution some of those who are here
pleading for salary increases will be the
first to condemn us. So far as I am
concerned, the plea of Hunter College for
more money Is lost"
THE officials took I'm ono depa NJ

Detectives Hope Schloss May
Shed Light on Death Of
Elmer G.. Drewes.
FRIENDS SAY ACCIDENT
Philadelphia Folk Near Scene
Tell Of Hearing Cries and
Pistol Shots.

Special Despatch TO THE NEW YORK HERALD.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 1S.-Thirty-six
hours after the body OF Elmer c. Drewes.
found on lonely lot in Oak Lane Sun
day morning. the police had not un-
covered one clue that seemed to offer
much hope of determining who killed
him.
Members of the family expressed a
firm belief that the shooting which was
the climax of Drewe's visit to Philadel-
phia to buy an automobile was acct
dental. That, as well. Is one OF the
favored theories of the police. although
not shred of tangible evidence has
been unearthed to bear 1t out.
Favoring that theory, however, is the
spotless reputation of the student, n
reputation that paints him as an am
bilious scholar. an earnest churchgoer,
and as thoroughly dlsliking anything
in the nature of wild party" Mrs.
Howard Heath. mother of Drewes's
roommate at college, to-day advanced
the accident theory as the only one in
which the family could place much
credence.
Elmer had no enemies We are
sure of that" Mrs. Heath said. HE
had hundreds OF good friends, but only
few Of them live in Philadelphia, be-
cause he has spent very little time
in the city since his family moved
here. The family has discussed this.
and IL has led them to the belief that
friend accidentally shot him. The
tender care with which the body was
placed in the lonely lot seemed to show
that some one who cared for him did
the deed. And 1t seems possible that
that person. knowing he had no evil
dence 10 show 1t was accidental. hid
the body and has said nothing of IT."
Interview New York Friend.
Detectives left this afternoon for
New York TO interview Charles Schloss,
friend of Drewes. who is said to have
been with him saturday. Drewes came
home over the weekend, he told his
father Christian T. Drewes, to purcha Sc
an automobile from q student at the
, University of Pennsylvania who lives
In Reading. He stopped in New York
on the way down, however TO see
Schloss and collect a debt OF 500. He
was told Schloss was in Atlantic City,
and followed him there Saturday morn
ing. He came home at seven o'clock
Saturday night. and left at $50 o'clock.
he said to see about the automobile.
He left Dartmouth at 8 O'Clock Friday
afternoon. Police believe Schloss may
be able to give some important informa-
ton on Drewes's planned movements
Saturday night.
Schloss left word at Atlantic City to-
day that he was on his way to New
York to tell the authorities what he
knew. He arrived at the shore Wednes-
day or Thursday, and between those
days and to-day, his high powered road
ster was in and out of the garage of
the Hotel Alamac. where he and his
friends were stopping. Two compan-
ions with him registered under the
names OF Fl. Hammond and w. Monroe
