AGAIN FROM
MADRID
BY ROBERT G. NIXON
International News Service


Evacuation Of Americans in
Madrid was reported imminent
today.
Highways and the railroad line
from the Spanish capital to Valen-
cha, on the east blocked by insur-
gent operation for more than a
week since the Spanish revolt be-
gan, are again open, the State
Department was informed by Eric
C. Wendelin, in charge OF the
Madrid embassy.
Wendelin reported that the first
train since the insurgents blocked
the observation-disclosures railroad line
left Madrid last night for Valencia.
Train Through Safely
And at noon today Wendelin dis
closed that the train had gotten
through and the tracks were again
in the hands of government forces.
He had planned yesterday to
send the 1871 Americans who have
been encamped in the embassy out
of the danger zone as soon as the
railroad line to Valencia was open
for travel.
Nationals of Panama and Cuba
in Madrid have been given the
protection of the embassy, and
Wendelin said he was doing every
thing possible to aid Austrian
citizens.
San Sebastian Battle
Describing the evacuation OF
San Sebastian. American Coun-
selor Hallett johnson said:
Battle on the edge Of the city
continues and the insurgents
are said to be advancing in
which case terrible blOOdshed
will enSue."

consul was shot during street
fighting there, johnson stated.
Most of the diplomatic corps
had left for Irun, on the frontier,

tan, johnson said, and also the
Norwegian and Dutch ministers
and their secretaries, the British
consul, and the wives of the Fin
niSh and Norwegian vice conSulS,

nothing else. was responsible for
the good name of Wollner being
emblazoned on the front pages of
newspapers everywhere. 1 have
been proud of my name as well as
my art.
I feel no resentment against
these neighbors whose story to the
authorities was wholly erroneous.
Was Home in Bed
The truth is on the night Miss
Clevenger was slain in the Battery
Park Hotel at / o'clock of the
morning of July Is, was home
in bed. I retired between 1880
and midnight. I spent much time
earlier talking with Miss Mildred
Ward on the front porch of the
Ward home, where I was a
roomer.
I did not get up the next morn
ing until between 7 and 8 o'clock.
The terrible crime in the Battery
Park Hotel was committed in the
meantime. At the very moment
when someone was beating and
shooting this young girl to death,
I was fast asleep.
did not object when they took
me to the county Jail because 1
knew I was innocent. I received a
telephone call from my good
friend, w. H. Rymer, who is a
piano dealer in ASheville, that the
sheriff wanted to see me. was
getting ready to go with Mr..
Rymer to the sheriff'S office when
they came for me.
Six Days in Jail
Six days I spent in jail. had
a clear conscience. had nothing
to worry about. I felt I was IN
safe hands. I never had any in
clinatiOn to cenSure the law en-
forcement body. I knew they had
a difficult problem on their hands.
It was their indispensable duty to
leave not a stone unturned to
solve this crime.
In Jail asked for my violin. It
was brought to me. 1t was the
source of my greatest consolation
at a time of great distress and
embarrassment. I enjoyed softly
playing composition Of the great
johann. Sebastian Bach, Shubert
and Paganini.
1 am free now, just as I antici-
pated. I never doubted for a mo-
ment that I would be liberated.
I am starting to work at my
studio in ASheville today, taking
up just where I left. 1t is the
source of the greatest satisfaction
to me that my many friends in
ASheVille and elsewhere have show
cred me with kindness.
My father and mother, Mr.. and
Mrs. Mark Wollner, are living
quietly in Bad Pyrmont, Germany,
and I know they are glad to be
assured that their son had no con-
nection whatever with this de-
plorable crime which has shocked
our community.
I ardently hope the authorities
capture the person guilty of the
Staying of Miss Clevenger. I will
remain right here in Asheville in
the pursuit of my profession. 1
am happy to turn my thoughts
toward my art again and take up
my work where I left off.

GIRLS BATTLE
NEAR MADRID

government announced II trains
loaded with food and other provi-
sions were expected to reach
Madrid today over a newly-opened
railway line from Valencia.
It was over this same line the
American embassy hoped to evacu-
ate $50 Americans locked in the
capital for the past week.
The government claimed con-
sistent success during the fighting
of the last three days. While ad-
hitting the insurgents have not
yet been driven from the field, gov
eminent spokesman said they have
been merely shifting their positions
with each new loyal onslaught.
Casualties on either side since
the battle for Madrid started four
days ago have not yet been esti-
mated. The fighting is taking
place at widely scattered points
north of the capital, preventing a
quick check-up.
The government claims to have
$4,000 men in this northern field.
Full rebel strength is not known
here.
Girls Form Regiment
Meanwhile, q newly-formed girls
regiment of militia started train
ing today. A brief announcement
that Regiment Number 5" was
under arms failed to create a stir,
for brave women are far from ex-
ceptional in Spain from time i'm
memorial.
The regiment was formed in the
face of official opposition because
thousands of girls clamored to be
sent to the front, where scores
already are fighting.
The minister of war left Madrid
for Guadarrama to witness the
government offensive.
For the first time since the re-
volt began, Madrid appeared al
most normal today. Men and
women of all classes strolled in
the summer sunshine, but signs OF
the terrible struggle could be de-
tected.
For once, almost no young men
were to be seen. A good many
are already in the field with the
five militia regiments operating,
and thousands of others are in
training.
Successes Claimed
Taxicabs were almost non-ex-
istent. Three thousand were COM
Wandered for military purposes.
Meanwhile, the government re-
ported further progress against
the insurgents in the south, south
east and north. Insurgents op-
Grating in the Sierras, 80 miles
from Madrid, were reported still
holding two main passes, but this
the government denied, insisting
the inSurgent armies are fleeing
down northern slopes.
Insurgents are still holding the
AlcaZar Alba in Toledo, with the
historic castle now partly in ruins.
More than 10000 miners hem.
ming in insurgents near Oviedo
have cut off their water and light
supplies, the government said.
While government airplanes
bombarded six cities and loyalist
troops besieged Seville, artillery,
infantry and airplanes COM
manded by General Riquem
opened an assault on the army of
Gen. Emilio Mola in strategic
Leon Pass, in the Guadarrama
Mountains.

AID PROBE0 OF
COED DEATH

BOSTON, July 27. d.N.so.
Three Greater Boston women to-
day became important figures in
the investigation Of the murder Of
Helen Clevenger, 10, in an Ashe-
vile, N. c., hotel.
The women were members OF a
touring party Of 81 who stopped
at the hotel the night the girl was
slam. The women are Miss Lydia
Everson, of Belmont; Mrs. Nettie
M. Cowdin, of Somerville, and
Miss A. Gertrude Barrett. Of Bel
mont. Their stories were to be
transmitted to ASheville author
tiles.
Miss Everson and Mrs. Cowdin
slept in the same room at the
hotel, two doors away from the
room where Miss Clevenger met her
death. Miss Barrett slept in a
room across the hall.
Aroused by Screams
Miss EverSon told police she
was awakened by screams OF a
woman which we're followed by a
crosh. Then she said she heard
a mans voice, which sounded
cultured, calm and modulated.
Mrs. Cowdin, who said she had
been unable to sleep well because
Of a lightning storm, thus de-
Scribed the scream she heard
THE screams Of the girl were
not prolonged. It was really all
one scream in = high-pitched
voice. 1t sounded like . young
woman crying 'Oh-mOther-
OH 1 got the impression it
wasn't q scream of pain, but
that she was facing something
that was agOnizing to her in its
fright"
OTHERS HEARD CRIES
Mrs. Cowdin said Miss Everson
who had been sleeping soundly,
was awakened, and went to the
open window. Mrs. Cowdin con.
tinued:
She told me of hearing some
body say Just a minute, Molly,
and you will be all right 1
didn't hear this. l heard no
voices. / didn't 60 to the win
dow"
AS they left the hotel the next
day, Mrs. Cowdin said, nobody at.
temped to stop or question any
member of the bus party. AL
however, reported they heard the
scream, although some were sleep
ing on the fourth floor. She said:
There was absolutely no ex-
element in the hotel and no
thought of q crime entered our
heads. Everything was SO or
derby and quiet"
