tracing two small points of steel.
"Mr. Benton" the cook was saying

, Dollfuss was a brave man. He
was one Of the most valorouS Off
GERS in the Austrian army. He
did not run. He faced the mur-
dererS, 10 Of them single handed.
The NaziS fell upon one un-
armed man.
DollfuSs got the first alarm
when his servant, hearing q tu-
mutt in the hall outside his door,
closed and locked it. The servant
and DollfuSs then ran to the So
called congress hall.
They had hardly reached the
hall when 10 men beat in the door
with rifle butts and Stormed in.
Cried for Help
Their leader flung himself upon
DollfuSS and, holding a revolver
close to him, fired twice.
One shot struck Dollfuss in the
neck. The other in the shoulder,
Dollfuss remained standing for a
moment, then brought both
hands up before his face and
fell backward to the floor.
Lying there he cried twice:
Help! Help!"
Then he became unconscious.
The murderers let him lie there
q while. Then one of them
dragged him onto a divan and
covered his face with a towel.
They thought him dead.
One Nazi was kind enough to
tie q handkerchief around his
bleeding neck.
Later Major Emil Fey was per-
mitted to come to Dollfuss for q
moment.
Saw DOllfuss Shot
Major Fey gave the diplomatic
corps the first account of his
view Of Dollfuss's death. He said:
II saw DOllfuss shot. AS the
NaziS rushed me through q
doorway 1 heard q shot and
caught a glimpse Of DolIfuss
staggering. Then they forced
me away.
Aney put me In q room with

MOVIE 6GEVlCOI
BERLIN, July 26 Q.N.S0.-The
government moved swiftly today
in an attempt to remove any
stigma that might attach to 1t tol
the assassination Of Chancellor
Dollfuss and the terrorist acts Of
Austrian Nazis in Vienna yester
day.
Only a few hours after Chan
cellor Hitler had returned hur-
riedly from Bayreuth, where he
was attending Wagnerian festi-
val, Baron KonStantin Won Neu-
rath, Foreign Minister, sent tele
gram Of condolences to the Aus
trian government on behalf Of
the Reich government.
The chancellor's whereabouts
later in the day was a mystery
It was understood that he had
hurried back to Munich, where he
could keep in close touch with
border events, but government Of
fiaE refused to confirm this.
Ambassador Fired
Baron Won Neurath's telegram
was dispatched at II o'clock this
morning, an hour when Wilhelm
strase customarily is just begin
ming to awake.
On arriving at his office, Inter
national News Service learned,
Hitler Immediately and personally
dismissed his ambassador to Aus
tria, Rieth, when he learned that
the diplomat had been the one
who arranged a guarantee Of safe
conduct to the German border for
the men who captured the Aus
trian chancellery including the
aSSassins of Chancellor DollfuSS.
Hitler also ordered the arrest of
anybody crossing the border into
Germany and it is believed that
the ambassador will be returned
to Berlin under guard.
Frontier Is Closed
Through his personal orders to
close down the Austro- German
frontier to the plotters and to dis
miss Rieth, Hitler believes he has
given the world ample proof that
Germany is determined to keep
out Of the domestic affairs Of
Austria.
It is asserted by those close to
him that Germany must in any
case be kept aloof from the dan
ger Of becoming involved in any
complications resulting from the
situation.
Hitler was quick to size up the
situation. He expressed anxiet!
to those around him. He feel
that his own actions in disavowine
the Austrian plotters and his sym
pathy with the Austrians in "theil
hour Of grief" will be instrumental
in assuring the world that Ger
many has not the slightest in
tention Of disturbing European
peace.
Although Wi1helmstraSse circles
also have heard the runors o!
italian movements on the border
they are inclined to discount any
serious intention on tht part o:
Rome to go into Austria.

| VIENNA, July 26.-Hitler has
! washed his hands Of responsible
| ity for the murder of Dollfuss,
but the Austrian government Is
determined to pour the blood Of
their dead Chancellor back on
German soil.
This Is the latest impression
the diplomatic corps gathers from
the resolution of the Austrian au-
thorities. It now appears that
the government, after all, may
keep to the letter Of their agree
ment with the Nazi instructors
and shove across the German
border, all Of them except those
who actually asSaSsinated Doll
fuss.
This, it is considered here,
would be the most effective move
Austria could make to show
where the moral responsibility for
the murder lies.
German Envoy Fired
Germany, on the other hand, is
now desperately anxious to clear
itself of the charge that Berlin or
Munich had anything to do with
the crime.
According to information Of the
diplomatic corps here, the German
Minister Kurt Won Reith, who
acted as intermediary between
the insurrectioniSts and the Aus
trian government, and who flew to
Berlin today has been dismissed
from the German diplomatic serv-
ice. His own legation here has
put on mourning for Dollfuss.
Furthermore, Berlin has let the
Austrian government know that
Germany would not honor Won
Reith's promise, and that Ger
many would not permit the Nazi
rebels to enter the Reich, thus if
the Austrian government does in
tend to shove the Nazis into Ger
many, it will have to take place
at some point where Austrian
guards could put them down and
bayonet them across into Hitler's
country.
His Close Friend
George s. Messersmith, tn e
American Minister to Austria,
visited his dead friend today. He
alone, among the Austrian diplo-
matte corps was invited to view
the body of Dollfuss because Mr..
MeSserSmith was more than 9
mere diplomatic envoy in Austria.
He was Dollfuss's friend and
among all the representatives of
foreign powers here, Mr.. MesSer-
smith was most often called into
consultation by the chancellor.
With Alfred Kliesoth, first Sec
retary Of the American Legation,
Mr.. MeSsersmith walked close to
Dollfuss' bier.
It lies in the Chancellor's work
room where once on time Meter
Mich held sway. Around it are
heaps Of flowers and at each cor
ner stands a guard Of Infantry
men from the army.
Dollfuss'S tiny figure looks
smaller than ever. His face, which
in life always bore marks Of over.
work, in death has blanched to
an inhuman pallor. It showed
clearly that his body had been
drained of blood.
Faced His Murderers
Dollfuss, whom the Vatican re-
garded as perhaps the greatest
Catholic politician in the world,
had to die without benefit Of
clergy because his brutal murder.
erS would not grant him even that.
