ability had confessed, he became ner-
vous and after being returned to his
cell he broke down completely.
The confession received by men,
bers of the prosecutors staff is en-
tirely due to the efforts of Sheriff
Duggan, who has worked untiringly
on the case from the night of the ira
gedy. 1t was through his work that
the rendezvous of the men was locat-
ed, and it was also he that induced
one of the five suspects to confess.

Several sidelights ON the robbery
1t the Harrison hotel Thanksgiving
night, in which 'Sut' Schilling was
shot to death, the details of which
were furnished county authorities
In a complete confession made by
one Of the bandits, came to light
Last week.
Although county authorities refuse
to comment on the statement made,
it became known that William Harris,
alias William (Slim) Lemmox, is the
man accused in the confession of fir
ing the fatal shot. Harris, it is re-
ported, shot Schilling when he made
a motion as IL to reach for his hip
pocket.
In the initial statement made by
the five men few hours after their
arrest in a house on Wall street, Will
liam Harris identified a .41-caliber
Colts revolver that had been taken
by the officers as the one belonging
to him. George Beach admitted that
one of the .32-caliber automatics was
his.
The finding of .32-caliber auto
matte shell lying on the floor near
Schilling's body definitely established
the caliber and make of the gun used
by the bandit who fired the shot.
Authorities were at first inclined to
believe that Harris was innocent of
the actual shooting, but this matter
has been entirely cleared up through
information. contained in the confess
sion.
After the contemplated holdup OF
the holiday crowd at the Holland ice
rink on Thanksgiving evening had
fallen through, and just before the
bandits entered the Harrison hotel
Beach remarked that he could not
handle an automatic, whereupon
William Harris offered to trade his
Al Colts for the others gun.
After leaving the scene of the rob
berry and murder the holdups divided
their forces and made their way tt
a house on Wall street. At that time
William Harris is reported to hav.
had the $500 diamond taken from
the finger of Mrs. Gladys Kelly /,
his possession.
| Arriving at the cabin, the four mel
proceeded with all haste to remov,
the evidence of their crime. Mont
Harris, who in running past Schil
ling's body had stepped in the pool o
blood, occupied himself in washing
and scraping the stains from hi
shoes. His efforts, however, wer
only partially successful, for whe
arrested several specks of blood wer
, still in evidence on the sides Of hi
shoes.
Further precautions against pos
sible detection were taken by Mont
Harris when he stripped off the over
coat he had been wearing and tor
it into strips. The fact that it is tn

The coloring process places coat

experts have impressed all shades Of

These shades will not change or deep

STUDENT MAKES
BICYCLE RECORD
Philip Der Yuen Signs IS Sub

Riding Times "Bikes."

Proudest among the recent recip-
tents of free $50 bicycles from The
Washington Times is Philip Der
Yuen, a Chinese boy fourteen years
old, who attends the eighth grade at
Webster School and lives at 5o2
Ninth street northwest.
Philip was all smiles when the
classy Ranger wheel was turned over
to him and he seemed exultant over
the fact that some American boys
and girls played around and took
several days to get the necessary
thirty-five new yearly subscribers for
The Washington Times, while he
went at the Job in a business-like
way and signed up his inside OF
twelve hours.
Wade Breaks Record.
William Lester Wade. seven years
old, a pupil in the second grade at
Twining school, who lives with his par
ents at 387 r street northwest. broke
two records when he got his bicycle
from the Contest Manager. He Is not
only the youngster participant to get
q free bicycle but ne took less time
than any of them to obtain the thirty
five new yearly subscribers-his act
ual time being one hour and forty
minutes.
Lawrence l.. Petit, another bicycle
winner, is fourteen years old, and
lives at s27 Twenty-sixth street north.
west. He says 1t took him less than
, ten hours to get the subscribers, while
David Krupshaw, a twelev-year. old
winner, living at 450 Q street north
west declares it required only nino
hours to obtain the thirty-five new
Times takers.
Meyer J. Mervis, twenty.eight years
old. employed by the Metropolitan
Life Insurance Company, and living
at 1885 Fourteenth street northwest,
said his free $50 bicycle would save
him q lot of carfare and amply COM
nensate him for his eight hours
work.
Here's Inspiration.
II you are a participant in The
Washington Times $4,000 bicycle
contest, and have not yet gotten a
free $50 bicycle, you ought to get
something more than news out Of the
foregoing paragraphs. You ought to
get inspiration to pitch in and make
quick cleanup of the job you
undertook. If this Chinese boy and
the seven-year old lad and the other
school boys can turn the trick in a
few hours you surely can do 1t, too.
Remember that this contest closes
on September 1, rain or shine, and
that that is the last day you have
to turn in thirty-five new yearly sub
scriptions for The Washington Times.
If you set your determination to get

among your friends and nelghbors,
you are bound to get the required
thirty five In a few hours. Bear
this in mind: there's $50 Ranger

men under arrest and warrants is
sued for ten others, the Federal au-
thorities today were probing deeper
iEto the three million dollar" swim
die attributed to the robbers trust"
of which John w. Worthington Is
declared to be the head.
Gigantic Fraud.
Evidence already uncovered, Fed
eral agents assert, reveal some of
the most gigantic fraud conspiracies
ever attempted by confidence men.
The conspiracy, 1t was revealed to-
day, already has brought an Ohio
millionaire to the verge of suicide.
z. w. Davis, director of the Win
ton Motor Company and other large
business concerns in Ohio, is shown
by correspondence seized by Federal
agents to have made a written threat
to blow his brains out"
Davis, who is under indictment, is
said to be bankrupt.
"Im Blow Out My Brains"
II am a pauper, disgraced and
ruined" Davis wrote to Charles w.
French, who is said to have been
head of the band that fleeced him.
MY wife and family are reduced to
beggary. And so help me, French,
unless you return to me the $2.60O,-
900 that you and your swindling
band have stolen from me l shall
blow out my brains"
French and five alleged associates
were arrested in an deliberately FUR
nished suite in a local hotel. french
previously had been arrested in con-
nection with the operations OF Worth
fngton, but had been released ON his
own recognizance after telling Assist
ant United States Attorney Chinnin
what purported to be the history OF
Worthington's alleged perations.
Among the men for whom warrants
have been issued but who have not
been apprehended are A. K. Strelzin. a
Milwaukee broker; Ernest Strelzin, his
brother; Richard Weinstein, a Milwau-
kee bond salesman: Elmer l.. Gerber

and Alva Harshman, already at lib

= Apprehension Of the members OF the
band followed a probe replete with the
melodrama of tapped telephone wires,
Secret codes and dictaphones.
At Loss About Davis.
1t has not been revealed just how
the alleged swindling of Davis was
accomplished. His connection was dis
covered when Federal agents learned
that French and Worthington had
been discounting Davis notes for huge
sums in Cleveland and other Eastern
cities. Davis is said to have become
criminally involved as result of his
efforts to retrieve his vanishing for
tune.

the American Rubber Company, q
al 90 600 tire concern, is o ne of the men
undcr arrest. He is said to have made
a complete confession of his knowl'
edge of the operations of the band.
Kohn was arrested after he had en-
deavored to discount at the Merchants
and Manufacturers Securities Com
pany $50 900 worth of sixty-day notes
signed by q. w. Davis.
