Gas Station Attendants
Story CIeW in Death
of Teacher.

BU United Press
ROCKFORD, Ill, Dec. 11.-A
swarthy man, nervous and ap-
parently fearful of being recognized,
was hunted today as the possible
murderer of Miss Cordelia Gum
mersheimer, language teacher, who
was dubbed to death in her one
room apartment early last Sunday.
The tip came from Sam Hyland,
a filling station attendant at
Belvidere, about six miles east of
Rockford and on road leading to
Chicago, almost simultaneously with
the burial OF the teacher at Belle
vile.
Hyland said the mysterious
motorist stopped about 2 a. m. Sum-
day morning and demanded quick
service. The only other occupant of
the car was a white Spitz dog, Hy-
land said.
He appeared extremely nervous" :"
Hyland said, land he asked me to
hurry up and service his car. There
was another customer and waited
on him first. Then I pumped four
gallons--all it would hold-into the
tank of the machine"
Spoke Perfect English
'The man, who was neatly
dressed in dark clothes, with soft,
dark hat, spoke perfect English and
his skin was very swarthy," Hyland
said. "He may have been for
eigner.'
"He said to me that if any one
came along asking if a new Dodge
sedan had stopped there, to say
nothing about it.
"'She'll probably have some one
out looking for me- he said, and
so just forget it if any one in
quires.' I gathered that the man
had had some trouble with his
wife and was driving into Chicago
to get away from her"
THE car had been driven beyond
the reach of the hose and before I
filled the tank, asked the driver If
the dog would bite. He told me no,
so I opened the door, loosened the
brake and pushed it back nearer to
the pump. The Spitz jumped down
and the man called him, but
whether by name, I don't remem-
ber."
Fill 'er up" Hyland quoted the
man as saying, because want to
be sure to have enough gas to get
to Chicago"
Reassured Attendant
Before he left, he smiled nerv-
ously at me, as I thought at the
time, and told me that / needn't
worry; that he wasn't driving a
stolen car Or anything like that
just some domestic trouble. I be-
leve he had a small black mustache,
and I'm sure I could identify him
if saw him again"
Hyland said the motorist showed
no evidence of having been drink
ing. Police considered Hyland's evi-
dence as important, inasmuch as q

MEXICO CITY is
BELIEVED SAFE
FROM ATTACK
Doubt Rebels Have Leader
for Sudden Strike to
Take Capital.
BY LYLE G.. WILSON,
United Press STAFF Correspondent

WASHINGTON, March 18l-Mex-
leo City and the rich southern part
OF the republic are considered today
safe from rebel attack unless there
develops among the rebellious gem
erals a strategist of Napoleonic
daring and originality.
Two tentacles of rebel troops
reach from the disloyal northern
states toward the richer south
which 1t is believed here. must be
attacked if the rebellion is to enjoy
ultimate success.
One rebel thrust was southwark
from Sonora into the state of Sin
aIoa.
State department dispatches re-
ported rebel troops within thirty
miles of MaZatlan, Sinaloa, but said
there appeared to be a general with
draWal nerthward again.
Rebels Withdraw
In the central part Of the country,
the rebels are in Torreon, state of
Coahuila But dispatches indicate
the main body under General
Escobar is withdrawing northward
into Chihuahua.
For brief period the rebels feld
Monterey, state of Nuevo Leon, and
Vera Cruz, a gulf coast seaport.
The importance of each of these
places lies largely in their rail con-
neetions--eaeh being situated on
one Of the four railways that lead
near or to Mexico City.
Military authorities here are con-
f1dent no rebel drive toward the
capital could succeed except along a
railway line and it is not believed
here the rebels will be able TO
utilize this opportunity.
Shorten Lines
But the gradually changing mill
tary situation which finds the rebels
shortening their lines of commune
cations by falling back and the fed
eral lengthening theirs by advance
ing, admittedly creates situation
which might tempt daring leader.
BY means of quick thrust, mill
tary authorities said, well trained,
extremely mobile army might dodge
behind the advancing federals, cut
their lines of communications and
go roaring south gobbling railroad
towns and perhaps winning re-
cruits on their way.
Even with luck, however, it was
believed here such a venture would
be more spectacular than successful
unless the so far loyal southern
states could be induced to rise
against the government.

One of the most interesting,
if not amusing, indications that
have come out of Max Schmel-
ing's, Lakewood, N. J. camp
where this writer is shortly
going to make a few observa-
tions on his own accord, is the
fact Make seems to be unable
to keep in sparring partners,
so solidly does he belt them in
batting practice.
One of Makes hired play
mates folded up and quit camp
before even getting into the
ring with his employer. The
stalwart had been imported
from the Hoboken docks to
give Schmeling a little after
noon constitutional, and was
scheduled to be the third spar
ring partner Of an afternoons
program of three opponents to
face the Black Ulan from the
Rhine.
The longshoreman stood by in
his ring togs and watched Her
man Heller go two fast rounds
as the opening attraction before
a distinguished list of guests,
George Neron, the Greek heavy,
being the second to take on the
German champion.
By the time the wharf
workers turn came, he was no
where to be found. While Make
was taking a breath twixt SPAR
ring with Heller and Neron, the
scheduled third and final spar
boy sneaked back to his dress
ing quarters, grabbed up his
clothes and while still shrouded
in his dressing gown, grabbed
a taxi which had brought some
of the New York newspaper
men out to Lakewood, and
skedaddled back to Hoboken.
Besides the humor of the
thing, the incident shows the
seriousness with which Schmel-
ing is preparing for the Basque
wood chopper. He has been
slashing his "catchers" right
and left, working on their faces
as arduously as on their torsos.
