Bound and gagged by an armed ban

bassador Hotel under the ruse of in
vestigating leaky bath room pipe, A.
j. Boase Of Philadelphia was robbed
Of $54 and lay helpless for nearly, an
hour last night before he could summon
aid.
Knocking on the door about 8 o'clock
last evening, the intruder told Boase,
when the latter went to the door, that a
maid had reported a leak in the bath
room and asked to investigate.
After a brief conversation Boase ad-
mitted the man and went with him to
the bath room to view the leaky plumb
ing. AS the man jotted down notes he
asked Boase for another sheet of paper
As Boase returned with the paper, he
found himself facing a revolver. Lie

manded the robber. Boase complied.
The intruder then gagged him and
tied his arms and legs with picture wire.
After lying helpless for almost an
hour, Boase managed to release the gag
from his mouth and yell for help. A
guest heard his cries and called the
management
Detective Sergts. John Wise and
Henry Jett responded to call from
police headquarters and released the
bonds. Later they showed Boase pic
lures in the rogues' gallery, but he was
unable to identify any of them as the
man who robbed him. Boase is an en-
g1neer for cement company.

u. S. ATTORNEY ROVER ESCAPES
INJURY BY DRIVERLESS AUTO
Driver Surrendering in Stabbing of Girl, Jumps Car,
Hits Machines Parked at Police Station.

A driverless automobile which ca
reened down D street past the Court
House today after its driver, a colored
man, who was on his way to police
ing and stabbing his sweetheart, had
tumbled out narrowly missed United
states Attorney Leo A. Rover before 1t
crashed into several parked cars and
came to a halt
William Wells, 49, colored, the driver,
had sped from Second and L streets
southeast, after police said he pushed
Ruth Wells, his 17-year-old former
sweetheart to the street, following a
quarrel in which he had fired three
shots into her body and stabbed her
score Of times with an ice pick. The
ice pick was still sticking in her neck
when police took her to Casualty Hos
pital.
The girl was to appear in court today
to testify before a grand jury concern
ing previous attack alleged to have
been made on her by Wells.
Police grabbed Wells as he slumped
down to the sidewalk, after the crash.
He was taken to Gallinger Hospital,
where an examination disclosed that he
was suffering from drugs.
At the hospital, Wells became so vio-
lent it became necessary to strap him
to a bed. Nurses said he swung his
arms wildly and jabbered about some
woman.
His former sweetheart, more than an
hour after entering the hospital was
still in the operating room, where sur
gecns were attempting to extract the
Ice pick without causing her death. She
also had q bullet wound in her forehead.
Police expressed the opinion Wells
had gone to the girls home to persuade
her not to testifys gainst him, and that
they drove into the Southeast section,

where the attack occurred. No one
saw Wells strike the girl, but several
colored persons said they heard revol-
yer shots, then heard a car drive off
and woman screaming, Hes killed
me! He's killed mel
After abandoning the girl, Wells drove
crafty uptown to police headquarters.
At Fifth and D streets, across the street
from the Police Department Building,
he struck another machine, careened
into the new blue motor cycle of Police
Chief Pelham D. Glassford and stum-
bled from the moving automobile.
Mr.. Rover and Detective Sergt. H. K.
Wilson, crossing the street, were forced
to jump to safety.
"I shot her, shot her." Wells shout
ed, then collapsed on the street.
Police, believing the man drunk or
dope-crazed, had him removed to
Gallinger Hospital.
The previous attack Wells Is alleged
to have committed on Miss Wells, oc-
Cured on the evening of February g.
According to the complaint, he came
to a house in the TOO block Fairmort
street, where she was then staying, and
beat her with his fists and stick sew
eral times. finally shooting at her.
None Of the bullets struck her.
1t was concerning this alleged at
tack that the girl was to have testified
before the grand jury today. Detective
Benjamin Kuehling, was waiting for
her at the court house at the time Of
the attack.
The woman's hat and shoes were
found in Wells car at police headquart-
ers. Investigation revealed the man
had been arrested many times on
charges ranging from housebreaking
and liquor running to petty larceny
and gaming.

BUS LINES WARNED
ON NEW TERMINALS
Interstate Operators Remind
ed They Must Leave Con-
gested Section of City.

Still seeking information as to whether
interstate bus operators intend to clear
their terminals out of the congested
section by the 1st of next month, as
required by the order of the Public
Utilities Commission issued last August,
the commission yesterday directed a
letter be sent to each Class A operator,
requiring answers under oath to four
questions.
The commission asks whether the op-
orators have made arrangements to es-
tablish terminals out of the congested
area; If such have been made, where
will be buses stop; If not, why have
such arrangements not been made, and
II not, where will the passengers be
loaded or unloaded after April i?
According to the text Of the order no
class A operator may load or unload
passengers within the congested section
after April 1, regardless of whether the
unloading point is on the curb or on
private property. After August 1 no
loading or unloading of passengers will
be permitted at the curb in the second
parking zone, although the operators
will be permitted to have off-street
terminals within the second zone.
The questions call for answers not
later than March 8.
The class A operators are those who
operate regular interstate business, but
this classification does not include sub
urban service to Alexandria, Hyattsville,
Silver Spring and other suburban
points, nor does it include buses oper-
ated as part of or as a supplement to
street-car service.

WOUNDED MAN SAYS
"SNIPER" SHOT HIM
Police Decline to Believe Story of
Pajama- Clad Victim, Who
Refuses Exact Details.

Although police declined to believe
his story Bryant Mcmahon, 81 years
old, claimed he was a victim of Wash
ingtons phantom sniper" when he
staggered into Casualty Hospital with a
bullet wound in his back early today.
Clad only in pajamas, bathrobe and
slippers, Mcmahon arrived at the hos
pital shortly after 6 o'clock, and
declined at first to give any information
concerning his name, address or how
he came to be wounded. Physicians
after rendering first aid treatment said
his condition was undetermined.
Headquarters Detective Gene Davis,
who was called, recognized Mcmahon
Immediately. Beyond admitting his
identity, however, the man assumed a
reticent attitude
The 'sniper' got me" he said in re-
sponse to questioning.
"Where?" Davis asked.
ut must have been somewhere on B
street" Mcmahon replied.
Later he said he was in bed in a
house en- B street, the address Of which
he declined to give. when he was shot
One address he gave police was the
William Penn Hotel. Pittsburgh
Mcmahon has been questioned in
connection with several cases involving
gamblers and racketeers, including the
murder OF Talley Day, for which Elmer
Bulldog" Sweeney was later convicted
and sentenced
