I RIES TO DIE
VIII HER DOG

Pretty Andree Dubois, night club
hostess and companion" OF Jacob
Solomon, alias Jacob Rose, alleged
narcotic king. was committed to
the District jail today when she
failed to make bond, after a hear.
ing before United States Commits.
.sioner Needham C. Turnage on a
charge Of possessing jar of amol-
ing opium. She is being held, with
her sweetheart for action OF the
grand jury.
Solomon was arresbed last week
after selling $1,700 worth of dope"
to an informer. His room in the
Capitol Park Hotel was raided, Miss
Dubois found there, and the largest
seizure of narcotics in the history
Of local enforcement made. It was
worth approximately $4,000.
Her Guilt Denied
Despite the fact that solomon
stoutly maintained the fault was all
his own and she had nothing to do
with the traffic, Commissioner
Turnage ordered her held, when il
was brought out at the hearing that
a jar Of opium and q complete
smoking outfit were found packed
among her personal effects.
At the hearing yesterday, William
Leahy. the girls attorney claimed
that although the drugs were found
among her personal effects, they
were really the property OF Solo
mon, admittedly SO. and a tilt ensued
between Leahy and government
counsel.
Today, however, T. Morris Wamp-
Ter, representing Solomon. would not
allow Solomon to claim the owner
ship, and she was held. Her bonds
man refused to renew her bond.
Kiss On Way Out
He kissed her before they left
Turnage's office, and on the way
out smiled at an agent and said
Gee, you're q brave guy"
Had Solomon admitted ownership
Of the dope this morning. or had 1t
been any other kind than smoking
opium, Commissioner Turnage said
he would have released the girl.
Following the arrests here, Solo
mons night club on Broadway was
raided and ten arrested In one Of
the largest hauls in New York,
lately.
Robert Sanders, narcotic agent,
testified yesterday that he smelled
opium In Miss Du Bois' room, and
found the smoking outfit in her pos.
session, but could not testify she
was an addict.
