Wiser, 35, vice president and trust Off
Ger OF the Kimbell Trust g. Savings
Bank, was found slain late yesterday
IN his office on the third floor of the
bank building.
Police, reconstructing the circum-
stances of his death from stories of
bank employees and others, said they
believed the bank official shot and killed
himself after an unsuccessful ATTEMPT
to Kill Antonius Van Worden, Ct a re-
tired business man, who had placed his
property in trust and named Wiser as
his heir.
Original Theory Upset.
The police theory was that Van
Worden escaped after Wiser had beat
en- him with piece of gas pipe and
shot him in the mouth. Shortly after
he staggered out of the private office
police said, another shot was heard
When bank employees rushed into the
office they found Wiser dead, lying face
upward, with pistol near his out
stretched hand. On the floor was a
gas pipe, wrapped in a green -bordered
towel
1t was first believed that Van Worden
had attacked Wiser with the pipe and
that the banker died of wounds inflicted

ga desire to fight whether carrying
a banner or marching in the ranks" for
"a revived liberalism and a refreshed
idealism in this country" was expressed
by Newton D. Baker of Ohio in letter
made public here yesterday.
The letter was written to Sanford

retary of War not to discourage those
who were working for his nomination
for the presidency by the Democratic
party.
aside from the personal happiness
which tust is not improper for me
to have, my greatest joy at the moment
is coming from the fact that practically
all OF the comment which suggests
presidential candidacy for me is based
upon the need of a revived liberalism
and refreshed idealism in the coun-
try" Mr.. Baker wrote "To that cause
I am deeply committed and for it
want to fight. whether carrying ban
ner or marching in the ranks seems to
me to make little difference If it should
seem strange to you to have me say
that / wanted to fight for idealism and
liberalism, I can only say that 1 have
shpped into a military phrase to ac-
curately express a conviction which
grows with me; namely, that even great
paclnc causes have to be battled for,
not always with carnal weapons. it is

often with as much courage as is re-
qulred by military obiectiYes."

fiscation of thousands of dollars worth
Of equipment and furnishings today un-
der the revenue act of 1866, as the re-
suit of series of raids by prohibition
agents
The raids, in which IS agents partici-
pated, were the first in New York in
which the revenue act was applied since
1t was recently upheld by the Supreme
Court as an instrument against prohibi-
tlon law ViolatorS
The establishments raided were all in
the midtown section close to the theater
district. More than 100 persons were
arrested, among whom were seven held
for immigration authorities for illegal
entry.
The agents said in the Mona Lisa

WALKER is LINKED
WITH PIER LEASES
Steamship Director Testifes Mayor
Promised Assistance in
Negotiations.
ny the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December 23.-Pier-
lease negotiations, in which he said
Mayor Walker had given his assurance
of assistance, were described yesterday
to the HofStadter Legislative Commit
tee by Heinrich Schuengel, resident di-
rector of the North German Lloyd Lines
He also testified the assistance of
George w. Olyany, then leader of Tam
many Hall, had been sought and that
in 1925 James F. Egan, secretary of
Tammany Hall, personally assured
Philip Heineken, president of the line,
that aid would be given him in OBJ
tanning the desired lease.
This information brought a demand
from Senator John j. McNaboe, a
Democratic committee member, that the
mayor be subpoenaed Immediately and
given his day in court" Senator Sam
uel H. HofStadter, committee chairman,
said the committee would take the Sug-
geStion under adViSement.
Mr.. Schuengel, whose letters to the
mayor and Mr.. Olvany regarding the
per lease were introduced by MIR. Sea-
bury testified he had been introduced
to Mayor Walker by the president of
the Steuben Society at dinner aboard
the S. S. Columbus. David Maier, who
served a prison term for bribery and
who accompanied Mayor Walker to Eu-
rope last Summer, also was present.
1t was Maier, witnesses have testified,
who suggested that William H. Hickin,
now president of the National Demo-
cratic Club, be retained to aid the
North German Lloyd in obtaining its
lease. Hickin received a $50.000 fee
for his services.
Edgar w. Hunt, general counsel of
the North German Lloyd, was the only
other witness. He testified that New
York City was the only port in the
world where the line had to hire a
lawyer or go to extra expense to obtain
pier lease.
He said officials Of other shipping
companies had told him lawyers were
used as Intermediates, usually at a
S50,000 fee.

MUSIC
DOUBLE QUARTET IN RECITAL

THE Community Institute last
l. night presented the University
Double Quartet in recital at the Cen
trail High School auditorium before
a moderately sized and moderately
pleased audience. The quartet,
which is recruited from DR.. David
sons noted Harvard Glee Club, pre-
sented songs suitable to the festive
spirit of the season, a violin solo by
c. Harold Smith, and baritone solos
by Douglas A. MacKinnon, who is
the director of the quartet
The songs were varied and sung
with smooth If not distinguished
tone, among the outstanding rendi-
tions being the guitar-like ''Dimmi, o
Bella" Bring a Torch, Jeannette,
Isabelle" and the selections from the
Gilbert g. Sullivan operetta. The
most obvious sideStepping, however,
through the program was that, al
though these songs were in many
different dialects and languages. it
was impossible to assume that one
was different from the other through
the singers imperfect diction. This
was due, of course, to the fact
that the selections were read rather
than sung out of books into which
much of probably the better tone
drifted.
Mr. MacKinnon was loudly ap-
plauded for his singing of Billy
Boy" and Mr. Schmidts violin solos
were also wel1received. Thequartet in
