Aelaoes and trousers. These are
now In the possession Of the Dis
txict chemist and the blood found
nm them will be compared with
samples Of the murdered mans
blood.
The two suspects are known
TO have left the city sometime
Monday night or Tuesday morn,
ing and are believed to have
gone to New York, where the
younger man has q sweetheart
in the. Greek settlement on the
lower East side. It is into this
neighborhood that Flaherty and
New York city detectives are
searching for the suspects.
Ship SaiIings Watched
ALI outbound vessels are being
watched as well as Greek settle
nents in New Jersey. Police re-
ceived a tip yesterday that the
two men were aboard a Cleveland
train, but they failed to leave the
train when it arrived in the Ohio
city. Police were checking on the
possibility that they may have
left the train in Pittsburgh, which
contains a large Greek settle

members Of the homicide squad
were busy today checking on it's

ShambleS, and became panic
stricken, rushing to the street
calling for police.
Carried Large Sums
: Most of the lunchroom's trade
was among members Of Haralam-
pidis' own race and it was from
them that police obtained the
clues on which they now are
working. He was known to carry
large sums of money and his
handbook, found by police, showed
that a week, ago he had about
$4,000 in a bank, but at the
time Of his death had only
$1,000 on deposit.
No date has yet been set for
an inquest and will not be
determined until Fleharty has
had ample opportunity to get
his men and the other detectives
have run out other clues and the
mass Of evidence gotten into
shape for presentation to a
coroner's jury and later to

DENIES HE. WAS
LOVE SLAYER

CHICAGO, Jan. IS IN.S0.-
Samuel Howard Dorr, fighting to
save himself from the electric
chair, today appeared in the role
of hero and good samaritan as a
result of his version Of the fatal
shooting Of William j. O'Brien,
husband Of his alleged sweet
heart.
Dorr occupied the witness stand
all day yesterday. He told new
version Of O'Brien'S death in the
early morning hours of November
20 when, as the State alleges,
O'Brien returned home to find
Dorr in his wife's bedroom.
Denies Love Affair
Dorr called it an accident,
denying time and again there was
any love affair between himself
and Mrs. Genevieve O'Brien.
Door said he was awakened by
a shot and ran upstairs to the
O'Brien apartment to find O'Brien
beating his wife'S head against
the wall, a revolver in one hand.
''I shouted at him and when
he turned I grabbed both Of his
hands to wreSt the gun away.
AS I jerked the gun it wellt off.
I don't know whether the bullet
struck him or not.
II started to run. with him
after me. I tripred over 8 chair
and the gun. fell, and VT botls
leaped for it. We both tussled
ovel it in the hallway / don't
think he wantCo to shoot me,
hut / thought I'd better get the
gun.
Fell On Stairs
, We both stumbled at the head
of the stairs and Bill rolled to
the landing. The gun went off
again.
Then for the first time I saw
Bill was hit"
Door declared his confession"
had been dictated by the assistant
States attorney and that he was
too worn out after hours without
sleep to resist.
Dorr never loved Mrs. O'Brien,
he said, but his attitude was
only one Of sympathy.
On the night before O'Brien
was shot, Dorr said he and his
wife had been forced to inter-
cede in behalf Of Mrs. O'Brien
during an alleged quarrel with
her husband which lasted until
4 o'clock in the morning.
The walls weren't insulated
and about 4:30 a. M, my wife
and I heard Genevieve scream
ing" Dorr testified. I'VE threw
on some clothes and rushed up
stairs. Bill had her by the hair.
I said what's the trouble, Bill?
and he said oh, she's just getting
smart again.
MY wife and I calmed them
and we went back to bed.
The next thing knew my wife
was standing over me shaking my
shoulder. We could hear screams
and hollering upstairs. When we
got Just about to the front door,
/ should say, we heard q shot,
When we got into the O'Brien
apartment we found Mr.. and Mrs.
O'Brien in the dining room.
Bill had hold of Mrs. O,Brien
pressing her against the wall. He
had a gun in his left hand partly
pointed at her.
Let Her Go, Bill
II didn't go right up to him but
started talking to him.
II said: What are you trying to
do, Bill?' and he said: Nothing:
why don't you stay downstairs?'
II said, let her go, Bill but he
didn't and then said, look at
Gen. and when he did. I leaped be-
tween them. 3
II got hold of Bills hand. He
fell against the wall and the gun
went off. Finally / got the gun
from him and ran toward the
front Of the house. I stumbled
over a chair and the gun went off
again"

TO choose % six

sixcylinder engine design, demonstration reveals
many other reasons why it's wise to choose q
Chevrolet Six.
Chevrolet offers the smartness and luxury Of
beautiful bodies by Enthusiastically upho1-
stored, completely appointed, and built of hard.
wood and steel, the finest type of body construc.
ton known.
Chevrolet's modern spring design assures comfort
and security wherever you drive. There is no
alarming feeling of sway when curves are taken
at high speed, no jouncine or buckine when
the roads are rough-because the long Chevrolet
frame is supported at all four corners on four
sem-elliptic springs, set in the direction of car
travel. And their rebound action Is controlled
by four Lovejoy Hydraulic Shock Absorbers-
assuring perfect comfort all the time.
Completely enclosed, weather proof, four-wheel
brakes give definite assurance of quiet, positive.
effortless brakine control.
1t will take only few minutes to confirm ali
these reasons why it is wise to choose Chevrolet
Sis. So come in today. Get behind the wheel
and learn the facts for yourself.
And, as you do, remember this one thing: The
Chevrolet Six Is just as economical as any car
you can buy. 1t costs no more for gas and OIL It
costs no more for tires. 1t costs no more for
service. 1t is priced as low as $495 at the Flint
factory. And it can be purchased for very small
down payment with unusually easy terms.

I'm the great iow.price field, old IDEAS Of motor car
value have undergone radical change during the
past eighteen months. The Six has swept into
spectacular popularity. Everywhere buyers are
agreeing cts wise to choose a Six" And If you
want to know why-9et demonstration of the
Chevrolet Six and learn what an amazing differ.
ence two more cylinders make!
The Chevrolet Six IL always smooth. The very
nature of sixcyinder design is such that it must
be smoother. When you idle the motor-drive
fast in second-or travel for hours at top speed
the power flows easily and evenly at all times.
There IL no tremor i'm the steering whee1-no
rattle I'm the floor boards-no annoying rumble In
the body. AS a result, everyone in the car-pas-
seneers and driver alike-enjoys pleasant, COM
Portable, more restful ride. .xnsx.
And this six.cylinder smoothness does more than
increase the enjoyment of motoring. It protects
the entire chassis from the destructive effect of
continuous vibration. AS a result, the whole car
lasts lon9er-upkeep costs are reduced-and re-
sale value is increased. ,auyssss stsssss,a,..
Developing so horsepower, the Chevrolet motor is
o marvel of fexibiity and hill climbing capacity.
When driving slowly in high gear, you can step on
the accelerator and dart away without Juggling or
''loadine." Needless gear shifting is avoided And
on the steepest hill, there is reserve of power
more than equal to every need.
