Joe Frank investigated the case.
Look" he says. These two guys
Anthony Dimmet and Fred Stevens
were riding along in an automobile
yuh see? Well, they got to the cor
ner of Main and Market streets and
Dimmet, the driver, rolls down the
window of the coupe and yells at Pa
trolman Ambrose Sparrow, who was
on beat there. yuh see?"
We'll. Ambrose goes over, and
Dimmet says: Looks like something
has happened to my friend here. He
amt dead is he, d'yuh suppose?'
Ambrose takes a look at Stevens
who is all slumped up in heap
Yeah, he says, cycling Dimmet. Yeah,
he's dead all right"
Joe Frank is one of the smartest
captains ever to wear the braid. He
knows his way around. So far no nut
had been too hard for him to crack.
But this one had him up a tree
In the first place they couldn't figure
out how Stevens had died Dimmet,
who was Stevens friend, told us
Stevens had been having heart at
tacks, but this didn't satisfy Joe. Joe
had hunch. He investigated pretty
thoroughly and he learned that Dim
met and Stevens hadn't been getting
along. So he figured Dimmet had
murdered Stevens, but he couldn't
accuse him of it because he didn t
know how it had happened.
X X X X
so JOE practically took that coupe
- apart. And what did he find ?
Well. he found hole in the floor.
board. Yeah, a hole in the floor
board, And he got to thinking He
figured that you could run an exhaust
pipe up through a hole in the floor
board and enough carbon monoxide
fumes would escape to kill man.
So what? So why was Dimmet
even riding in the car himself if he
had fixed that exhaust pipe? Well
it seemed to Joe that Dimmet was
riding in the car so he could make
sure the windows were kept @osed
So what again? If the carbon mo-
noxide fumes killed Stevens, why
didn't they kill Dimmet?
week passed. Two weeks passed
Joe was like a hound on the scent,
except that he had apparently lost the
scent. There was a worried, baffled
look in his eyes. 1t was the first case
he had ever tackled that gave him SO
much trouble. We kind of felt sorry
for him.

Gates wanted to

Joe shrugged.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2 (C.T.P.S0,
The warning Weickers, whose sep
aration suit and counter-Suit ended
in victory for Mrs. Schatz Adams
Weicker last June, clashed in Su'
preme Court again today over
money.
Mrs. Weicker, who received
$1,000 monthly alimony for sup.
port of herself and their four chill
dren, demanded $25, 900 which she
said she loaned Theodore Weicker
jr., toward $480,000 for a seat on
the stock exchange in 1880.
Weicker protested that the loan
has been outlawed by the statute
of limitations, claiming more than
six years had passed without legal
action being taken against him.
Counsel for the wife, however,
told Justice Edgar Lauer that Mrs
Weicker has an II. o. u" signed
by her husband In 1885, thus Civ.
ing her claim a legal status. She
will produce the document in court
tomorrow.
Mrs. Weicker was awarded sep.
aration by Justice Aaron j. Levy
after legal battle in which spirit.
ualism, Radio Crooner Jimmy Mel
ton, and a lady's maid in desha'
billie were mentioned.

TRAGEDY TODAY
Climax Due in Triangle
Killing Trial

CHICAGO, Oct. 81 d.N.S0.-
The murder trial of Rudolph
Sikora today centered on the final
figure in the tragic triangle Of his
love life.
Already told has been the ro-
nance and waning love Of comely
Margaret Sikora, %, for her "per-
feet husband" and his own burn
ing infatuation.
Today came the story Of the
urbane Edward Solomon, the
"other man." who wooed and won
Margaret's heart away, whom
Sikora shot to death to save her
SOUL"
BACK TO STAND
For the windup of the sensa-
tional case the mild-mannered, 81
year.old clerk came back to the
witness stand to tell the details of
that fateful morning.
In a consistent campaign, the
defense has sought to prove Sikora
was stark mad when he stepped
up to Solomon at a corner news
stand August % and fired five pis-
tol bullets into his rivals body.
The State has been equally in
tent on trying to show he cody
planned to eliminate Solomon in
the hope Margaret would come
back when she had no one else to
turn to.
FINAL HIGH POINT
The last phase of his story and
the prosecutions croSs-examina-
ton was scheduled to mark the
final high point Of the hearing.
Only a defense and State alienist
remained to be heard before ST.
kora's fate is given the jury of IL
married men and one bachelor.
