Don t Kick A Man When He's Doyn'' Quotes Alleged Swindler After Victim Discouers $276,OOO Loss
Mrs Atwood Now Declares She Parted With Much Larger Sum Than at tirst Supposed; Even Her Dogs Went
 to Swell Golfers of Mythical Pool

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-Mrs. Dol othy Atwood, listed by the district at torney's office as one of the lesser victims of Alfred E. Lindsay's alleged Domino Club" stock pool, declared today she had run Mrs. Lillian N. Duke, divorced wife of James B. Duke, the tobacco king" a close race for honors of ''chief goat" in the brokers operations.
 Instead of the sS7,000 she was re- ported to have contributed to the pool with which Lindsay is alleged to have said he and George F. Baker, Thomas w. Lamont, James A. Stillman, and a few other giants of Wall Street, were going to make a big killing" in the street, she put in $225, ,0-0 in cash, about S50,000 in jewelry and nearly $1,0O0 in dags, Mrs. Atwood said
 The missing broker, she declared, carried off two of her pedigreed Mex ican dogs, after he had got the last of her ready cash, representing that he had good sales for them. He tried to borrow a third, she said, but her suspicious had been aroused and she kept the dog.
 Mrs. Atwood has earned her living since by raising pedigreed dogs something that was just hobby be- fore the suave Lindsay came into her life. Mrs. Atwood said she had first met Lindsay through Mrs. Duke, who thought so well of him that she en- trusted more than S350,00O to him.

 There is no record here of "my ever speaking the words attributed to me by MT. Reed" said the ambassador.

He was the most convincing man in the world" she said. ''He should have been a writer. He could tell the most fabulous stories in a way that made one believe them. I never ques- tioned his honesty at first because of having met him through Mrs. Duke. He always acted very nice and talked big. Names of big men were always on his lips.'
 Finally, however, she began to sus- pect him because his grammar wasn't up to the Yale education he claimed, Mrs. Atwood said, and she had a wom- an friend meet him, who immedia- tely warned her tha the was mo good"
 The next day, my friend phoned me that she had seen Lindsay with woman at the Astor Hotel, who was wearing the diamond 1avallier I had given him to invest in the Domino Club pool" she continued 'T was about to go to the district attorney with my story at that time, but he talked me out of it, saying if ne went to jail, I would never get anything.
 Don't kick man when he is down. he begged me, so let the mat ter drop.''
 Mrs. Atwood laughed at reports that Lindsay was too cautious to ac- cept checks and that he always in sisted on cash.
 'I have plenty of checks endorsed by him." she said.

 Major Reardon, one of the surviv- while in the air, but ignited after it fell across a big electric wire at the army supply base.
 Sims, in his testimony, said:
 Just before the Roma started on her final nose dive, she seemed to buckle up close to the bow, appar- ently bringing the nose of the ship from left to right.
 "1t looked to me that there was dead weight in the bow. The nose of the ship sagged, leaving me with the impression that there was no gas in that part of the ship. She appeared to lose her buoyancy.
 ''I was at No. warehouse when l saw the Roma sailing over the base. The box kite, or tail gear, was ap- parently out of position and it at tracted my attention. I heard the en- zines stop, then the ship began to drop'

 T expect to do prison stretch for my part in this mess, but I don't want to hang" Fields was quoted as say ing.
 Fields, subjected today to another cross examination, made two changes in his story of the shooting of Taylor, but still insisted he drove the car used by the slayers, and was pa;d $1 ,000 for his part in the murder.
 He said today, according to the in vestigators, that a prominent motion picture actress, who was one of the quartet that planned the killing. pre- ceded the other three participants to the Taylor home, with the under standing that she was to give the sig nal when the opportune moment for the shooting arrived. and then es- cape.
 When the car containing the Chin- ese, the white man and woman, who he said were the others implicated. arrived at Taylor's bungalow. Fields is said to have declared, the actress emerged from the house, and, stand ing in the shaow of the porch. waved a bag of candy. The two men imme- diately left the automobile and a few seconds later Fields heard a shot, ac- cording to purporte statement. The men stepped from a window of the house. and re-entered the car, the in vestigators said he told them.
 Meanwhile, the actress who had given the signal. disappeared.
 Fields was previously said to have told officers that the actress impli- cated in the killing was not at the scene.
 After the shooting. Fields. it is claimed. says he drove back to the other three and received his money.
 He left Los Angeles that nisht. of ficers said he told them. although he had previously asserted he stayed there two days.
 When Fields was questioned as to his reason for giving fictitious names in describing the killing. officers said he told them "they were pressing me hard for names and I had to say something"
 Fields is to he sentenced here next week on the forgery charge to which he recently pleaded guilty.
