Master Mind OF The
 Murder Ring Flees
CCOntinued from Page D

Weidmann was charged formally with three of his confessed murders yesterday and probably will Dc charged with the other two today No date for his trial will be sci until the investigation is completed It will probably be held late next spring or next fall.
 May Be More Victims
 So certain were police that the murder ring had slain more than the five persons to whose murders Weidmann's cofessed, that laborert resumed digging in the half-acrt garden of the villa today. Police announced that they had found ar- ticles in the villa which did moi belong to any of the known victims nor to the alleged members of the ring. They believed that they pos sibly belonged to other victims.
 The bodies of the i've known vic- tins have all been recovered-the body of Miss DeKoven from Q grave under the villas porch where Weid- mann buried her; the body of From mer from the cellar where he was buried. The bodies of Lesobre and Coufy, a chauffeur, were left where they were killed, and the body of Leblond was doubled up in his automobile which was abandoned in the street of Paris suburb.
 The continued digging could mean only that police believed that Weid- mann had confessed only the mur- ders with which he had been con- nected by strong evidence, and that he and his accomplices had had other victims.
 Police AlnaEed at Weidmann
 Police were amazed at the square, jawed, self-contained Weidfnann, who was revealed to have had an extensice criminal record in his r1a- tive Germany. He had broken mo- mentarily when he first confessed killing Miss DeKoven, but later he seemed to take great pride in 1t and boasted that she had been "fascin- ated by my magnificent eyes,"
 He hinted leeringly that there had been romance between him and the beautiful 22-year-old girl from Brooklyn, N. r., but autopsy sur- geons who examined the partly de- composed body, said that he was lying. Miss DeKoven died inviolate. Nevertheless, her slayer said they had spent three "idyllic days" in the murder villa before he struggled her for her 800 francs ($2O and $500 in American Express travellers checks.
 Meets Miss DeK0ven
 Miss DeKoven met Weidmann in the lobby of a Paris hotel July 21 a few days after she and her aunt, Mrs. Ira Sackheim arrived here in the course of their tour of Europe. Two days later she made date with him and disappeared. Police had no doubt that Weidmann and his accomplices were those who made persistent efforts to collect a ransom of $500 from Mrs. Sack helm though Miss DeKoven already
