BOY OPENED SWITCH
 AND DERAILED TRAIN

Torrington, May s-Charles LaPa- towsky, IS, who was arrested late last night has confessed to the police that it was he who opened a switch early yesterday morning and caused passenger train 1235, southbound, to leave the main track and plough into an empty cattle car attached to an empty box car on the siding, pushing them number of feet, through a bumper of cinders and two ties, until the box car crashed into an old pass enger car used by railway workmen. All three cars were badly damaged and the roadbed torn up for con- siderable space. The accident oc- cured about 6:30 g. m. standard time.
 A wrecker from East Hartford ar rived shortly before noon and began clearing up the wreck The three damaged cars were easily removed, but the locomotive was so heavy as to baffle all attempts to move it. A second wrecker was secured about midnight and aided in replacing the locomotive on the rails.
 LaPatowsky claims he opened the switch lock with a key which he found and later threw away. The police have been unable to find the key. Suspicion was directed toward the boy by the fact that he had been involved in prior switch tampering.

BARE DETAILS OF
 BINKOWITZ KILLING

As the result Of secret hearings held during the past month before United States Commissioner A1exan- der Gilchrist, in the joint bankruptcy proceedings instituted against 'fNicky'' Arnstein, fugitive from justice, and David M. Sullivan, head of the brok- craze house of Sullivan & Co.,, of New York and Washington, D. C., 1t has developed that associates of Arnstein and trNicky'' Cohen, another fugitive were directly concerned with the murder of Benjamin Binkowitz, which occurred last August on the Post road near Milford.
 It is alleged that these hearings brought to light. the fact that Binko- witz's murder was planned by Arn- stein's associates while the young messenger was hiding with friends in New York, and that he was killed by a, party of hired assassins, after he re- fused to part with stolen securities for s3O0O. It is thought that Binkowitz stole bonds and securities valued at $173,000, and that these formed part of the ''swag'' secured by Arnstein and his associate. Cohen.
 According to the story alleged to have been told Commissioner Gil- christ, the murder plot was matched in the apartment of a Cleveland gam bier whose name is known to the police, and who last summer was making New York his temporary headquarters. The scheme was form ed immediately after Binkowitzs dis appearance with $17S,000 worth of securities and during the time the young man was in hiding with friends in the New York East Side.

 Everywhere the mayor goes one of the husky Burns men trails along and with his eagle eye and massive brain determines whether or not any of the visitors or associates of his honor is possessed of malevo1ent intention.
 Even when the. mayor goes to the club to have a, little private game he has his shadow with him. said a prominent man today.

 William J. Flynn, chief of the de- partment's bureau of investigation, admitted that several other men had been arrested in connection with the plots that they had confessed to par ticipation and that they had agreed to turn government witnesses. He declined, however, to give their names or to explain what part they had played.
 Salsedo, also known as '"Tony Tazio" was sleeping with another government witness. Awakening, he stole into the washroom in his under clothes and hurled himself from a window without awakening his com panion. It is believed he took his life rather than appear in court against the other plotters.
 From Chief Flynn and N. c. Don a.to, Sa1sedo's lawyer, it was learned that the circulars found at the time of the explosions, when attempts were made on the lives of many public men, had been printed in an Italian printing estaiblishm ment in Brooklyn where Salsedo was employed.
 Accordine to Donato, his clients employer asserts he knew nothing of the job and that Salsedo must have done it in his spare time without his knowledge. He admitted, however, that the circulars headed 'P1ain Words and signed Anarchist Fight ers'' had been out on his presses
