CAMPBELL'S MURDERERS
ARRESTED
One OF The Bandits Confesses
To The Crime

L ~ AAO OAAuO
| The slayers of Frank c. Campbell.
who conducted roadside refresh
ment stand in the barrens, near
Sylmar, and who was murdered In
his shack on Sunday night, June 2Y,
have been apprehended.
Robert Scotten, 21 years old, was
arrested in Columbia, Pa, and G.
Edward Haegner, of Lancaster, was
caught in New London, Connecticut.
Scotten has made a1confession in
which he states that he and Haegner
began their reign OF terror on the
night of June 2S. They stimulated
their nerves, the confession reads, by
drinking whiskey which they pur-
chased in Columbia. In a, stolen car
they rode about the country hold
ing up motorists.
When the supply OF gasoline in
their automobile ran low the bandits
stopped at the service station of
Harvey Reitzel, on the Beaver Valley
Pike, and aroused the man from
bed. While he was filling the
tank, one of the men hit him on the
head with wrench. Scotten says
it was the same wrench with which,
they killed Campbell. Reitzel feign-
ed Inconsistencies and probably
saved his life.
Scotten says they next stopped at
the place conducted by Campbell
and asked for gasoline. Campbell de-
manded money first. Scotten says
he produced a dollar and while
Campbell was filling the tank, he
drew gun and demanded that the
old man put up his hands. Scotten
says that while he held Campbell at
bay Haegner struck him on the head
with wrench.
Campbell, aided by his net dog.
put up a valiant fight, retreating to
the store building, where he barri-
caded himself. Scotch says that he
and his companion forced their way
into the store through a window and
Campbell defended himself by throw
ing anything movable within his
reach.

and shoes marked with blood and
Went to Philadelphia, where they

ten returned to Columbia and was
arrested. Haegner was traced to

MIDNIGHT INTRUDER ROUTED

Miss Elsa Diederich, daughter oi
the late Kurt Diederich and wife
aged about 20 years, had a thrilling
experience, one night last week, al
her home on the Commodore Conner
Farm, near Rowlandville. AS a re-
suit Felix Bayard, colored, aged ~
years, is lodged in Elkton jail
charged with breaking and entry
of the Hale Mansion, where the
young woman resides.
Miss Diederich was alone in the
main part of the mansion, save for
the colored farmer and wife who
slept below stair some distance from
her room. Her grandmother, Mrs.
Arthur Hale, was in Washington.
About 10 o'clock she went to her
room and noticed that a window
door to the second story porch was
open and had been forced. Think
ing the intruder had left, she bolted
the shutter. She had heard slight
noise but paid no attention to it.
About l a. m. she prepared to re-
tire. She placed her lamp on. a
table and took her grandfather's
automatic revolver from a closet.
Looking under her bed she saw
Bayard lying there, and threatened
to shot him if he did not come out.
He came out hurriedly.
The revolver proved to be- unload
ed anr the negro renched it from
her grasp. In the struggle Miss
Diederick was thrown against the
marble mantle and her head sew
erly cut.
The lamp was knocked to the floor
but the young lady managed to kick
it into the fire place and extinguish
the blaze started by the burning
oil, the intruder making his escape in
the meantime.
Miss Diederich's description of the
intruder accurately fitted Bayard
who had been working in the garden
for Mrs. Hale and lived nearby. He
was. arrested Wednesday last, and
lodged in jail, where Miss Diederich
identified him.

After Leaving House
For Few Minutes

Mrs. Maude Light of 67a Western
avenue reported to the police yester-
day that someone had entered her
house during her absence and had
taken $50 from her pocketbook. At
about 10 o'clock Mrs. Light had gone
into her garden, leaving the front
door unlocked. She was gone but a
short time and when she returned
she found that her pocketbook was
missing. Investigation showed that
the pocketbook had been left at the
foot of the stairs which lead from the
upstairs apartment which Mrs. Light
occupies, and the money was missing
from it.
In the opinion Of the police the theft
was the work of one of the numerous
solicitors who are going around the
city at the present time. The erdi-
nance that all solicitors have permit
from the police is being enforced and
Chief Gaskell said yesterday that If
citizens were to demand to see such
permits when solicitors appear at their
doors much trouble might be obviated.
