plished by close and sincere coop eration of law-enforcement agen- cies. District Attorney Dodger in his office, particularly assisted by District Attorney William Rourke have worked tirelessly with members of this department from the very outset of the investigation. "FiorenZa is an ex-convict now on probation. His story, in substance, is this:
 Thursday, April g, the day pre- ceding the crime, he called on the Titterton home and secured a love seat to be repaired by his employer, the Kruger Upholstering Company, 463 Third avenue. The following morning, before reporting to work, he visited the Tittertown home on Beekman Place. Gaining entrance, he immediately set upon Mrs. Tit terton, placing a gag around her mouth and tying her hands with twine.
 After attacking her, he carried her to the bathtub and placed her therein. He cut away and put into his pocket the tWine that bound her hands, and then left the apartment, eventually reporting for work where he repaired the Titterton love seat. Later on, in the afternoon, with his employer, he returned to the apart ment with the repaired love seat.
 Discovered Body
 During this visit Mrs. Titterton's body was discovered by Fiorenza' s employer, and he, Fiorenza, went to the telephone and called the police.
 With the discovery of the crime, special attention was given a strand of rope found under Mrs. Titterton's body in the bathtub. This, as it later developed, had been dropped unno- ticed by Fiorenza when he cut loose

Found In Bath Tub

After queries had failed to elicit definite information Captain Stew ents asked Dyson to sit down and write 8 letter just like the last one you wrote" The youth readily com piled with the request, and handed the finished letter to the officers for inspection. It differed only slight ly from the original note, contain ing substantially the same demands and written in the same form.
 Captain Stevens said Dyson had previously been under suspicion for a similar attempt, but that the youth had been absolved. It was this fact, he said, that led him to believe the boy was implicated this time.
