BOXER ARRIVES
 IN NEW YORK
SoOnllnued from rage D

walter Richard Engleberg Co clarlfy a puHMllng point in his confession.
 Kehler, 90, shielded his face with his felt hat when he was taken from Q train Co police headquarters for a routine appearance in the lineup. Then he was taken Co the Parkville precinct In Brooklyn which has jur- isdlctlcn over the house In which Kehler said he bludgeoned Engle- berg when the t0-year-old German ofi1cial made improper advances.
 Police said they were most cou- cerned at the ynoment--preliminar to presentation of the case to the grand tury-with having Kehler show them exactly how he beat En- geiherg in the bedroom of his home. The boxer's story Is that . struggle preceded the staying, yet police said, the secretary was found lying in bed In peaceful repose as though he had been Killed In his sleep. q Accompanying Kehler from Tor- onto where he was trapped by de- tectives who had been following his wife was Assistant District Attorney Michael Kern Of Brooklyn.
 Case All Settled
 Kern said the case twas all set. tled."
 As Kehler left the train, Benny Efeeman, gymnasium owner who employed the boxer periodically, called out to him. Police Lieutenant Maurice daughrin ordered Q detec- tive to "shut him up." The detec. tive then threatened Freeman tln- lem he remained silent.
 T teiephoned Ernie last night in Toronto that ! would meet him ct the train that I am retaining coun- sel," Freeman said. He was with me since Sept. 5, working, training, and 50 on. He's 100 per cent. I never knew he was married, but I knew he was Q healthy, normal young man. Toronto police arrested him Mon- day night. He had been located there by information furnished by N New York salesgirl, who sold Keh. ler's wife a swing for their five- year old daughter and recaleid that she he'd mentioned the name os Ernie Haas, under which Kehier boxed, and Toronto.
 In tho i6 page confession he signed in Toronto, Kehler said Dr, Engleherg. whom he had met ct Q prize fight, had made improper ad- vanoes toward him at Engleherg's home on the night of December {, and that he beat him to death.

around g D. m. She will tic up either ct c Manhattan pier or ct Staten Island and transfer the Germans by launch to Ellis Island where they will be held pending c determina- ton of their status.
 Immigration Commissioner James L. Houghteling was studying this question in Washington. If the Co- lumbus was unarmed--afid there was apparently abundant evidence that she was not armed-the men will be classified as riarooned mariners and will be entitled to GO days of lib- erty in this country before they'l! be under coinpulsion to leave. In this case, It was assumed that the German embassy would see that they were housed and fed until are engagements are made for their rec turn to Germany. If the Tuscaloosa reports that the Columbus was armed, they will be Informed as com- batants.

to be cllnching evidence that Brl' tain not only ruled the sea, deSpit' German claims, but that German merchant as well as belligerent ship ping was being driven rapidly of
 Rplea COmmunluue
 The admiralty issued brief com muniQue on the Columbus;
 ''The German liner Columbus, S2,' S0i tons. on sighting one of hiS maieSty'S ships some 400 mlleS northwarCis of Bermuda, set tirt to herself and her crew abandonec her. No further information is available"
 Typical of jubilant newspaper s'hanner lines" on first pages was that of the Daily Express; "'Sink- My.oyn-ships' Adolf Does Il AGain,h
 It was pointed out that the Co., lumbus was the largest German victim so far of Allies sea war fare. Next in size was the liner Watussi, 9,52l tons, scuttled In the Indian ocean after having slipped out of a port--on Its way, 1t was believed, to take supplies to the Ad- miral Graf Spec at an ocean rendezvous,
 Unofflcial estimates were that the Columbus brought the total of Ger man merchant marine losses since the war started to Al ships, aggre- Eating 224,000 tons, Eighteen of these ships had been seuttled, Four had been sunk, as the admiralty put it, "n other ways, sixteen had been captured by Allied warShips and made prizes, Three had been Sised in Allied ports on the outbreak of the war,
 Defend Scuttling
 Navy men defended the scuttling of the Columbus as a reasonable means of preventing the British from capturing and using it, But they maintained their first re- 'aetion from the Graf Spec seuttling that tho ship had met an "nSlorl- ouS" end while 1t still possesses guns capable of firing back,
 It was noted that, in the bitter ness of the war spirit, there was some public criticism Of the BritiShl submarine commander who reported that he sighted the great German liner Bremen, on its way from Rus sia to Germany, but did not tor pedo 1t because that would have been violation of international law, and a aclt justification ot German unrestricted sea warfare Brttons Are Happy
 But BritonS, for the moment, had no complaint as to the course ot the war at sea. Added to the Graf Spec seuttling, and reports that British submarines had sunk one and dam aged two German cruisers, besides a German submarine, the Scuttling of the Columbus was taken as somewhat counter balancing the new German airplane attacks on trAwlers. Nine ships, most of them trawlerS, had been sunk in recent days and others damaged by air plane bombing and machine cunning a attackS, A more serious loss was that of the British liner City of Kobe, 4,s7S tons. believed to have been tor- pedoed,
 There was some interest in but no explanation of the emphasis put by the air ministry on denialS that Royal Ar Force planes, on two raids over the German coast yesterday, had bombed the German Island of Sylt. Observers near Toender, Nor. way, had reported seeing bombing, an attack on two German seaplane bases at Rantum, in the island.

among his best friends his photo- graphic equipment, Of which he was proud, and other personal ef- fleets.
 News of the official decree in- tsgning the Graf Spec crew had been given to Langsdorff by the German ambassador shortly after 9 p. m. It was assumed that he considered the official publication of the decree as ending all further responsibility on his part for his men and as opening the way for him to carry out the program he pinned when he received orders to destroy his ship.

SURVIVORS AREON
 WAY TO NEW YORK
toontinued rom Page D

tContinued rom Page D boats were adrift on the water, The British destroyer whose mere ap. pearanee--reports indieated--caused the Columbus to commit suicide, still was standing grirnly by.
 Fear Lives Were Lost
 There was some fear here that lives had been lost because of c dis- crepancy in figures. The press ate tache of the Germany embassy in Mexico City said $50 persons were aboard the Columbus when she sail. cd from Vera Cruz last week, The Tuscaloosa had 67o, and the British admiralty announcement made no mention of the destroyer having picked up any survivors. II the Mexico City and Tuscaloosa figures were both correct, 6i persons are unaecounted for.
 Captain Harry A. Dadt, master of the Tuscaloosa, either was report ing very sketchiiy to the navy de. partment In Washington or the navy department was not making public his full reports, But in one of his messages before he left the scene, he said that there had been rollcall of the Columbus crew aboard the Tuscaloosa and that tn,s had shown that only two men-Ftreman Carl 0. Lapaat and Helmuth Mietz-were missing. So far as could he learned, he said. there were no casualties. His message indicated that he did not regard tho missing men as ''casuaities" and it was wondered If ho used the word h regard to in- jured men and not to lost or drown. cd men.
 Captain Dadt did not say, but 1t was assumed that the Columbus' master, Captain DAehne, was aboard the Tuscaloosa.
 iith Largest Aiieat
 Until her voluntary demise, the Columbus was the iith largest iner- chant ship afioat. But she was ib years old and, if there had been no war, could not have survived many years more as Q first class passenger iiner--she was too old. Unarmed, built for the peaceful pursuits of trade and not for fighting, she would have been no match even for c launch armed with c one-pounder If the launch was able to travel at her speed. Therefore, when the little but powerful and fast destroyer hove Into view she had the alternative of surrendering or suicide,
 Her end came well within the safety gone" set up around tho hemisphere by the 2i American re- publics. The zone goes south along the e0th parallel from the tip of Maine and passes approximately 600 miles east of Cape Henry. But the White House In Washington in. dicated that no shots had been fired, that no attack had been made by the destroyer. and, therefore, there had been no "beiligerent" co. ton and no violation of the safety zone.
 The Tsiscaloosa was expected here

CHICAGO MOUND ACES FOLD UP
 AT SAME TIME
.Hartnett Unhappy Reds Go 4 Games Up; DiMag-
 giO Stars
By GEORGE KIRKsEY

eNNE NN@@SAAhSAS<
 United Press Staff Correspondent
 New York, June 9.--(UP)- Gabby Hartnett, one-tiine happy worrior of the Chicago Cubs who finds it an effort to smile these days, today was bsmoaning the fate that has caused his two aces. Bill Lee and Clay Bryant, to fold up at the same time.
 Last year Lee won 9 and Bryant 19, and they were ranked among the National leagues four or five top pitchers. Approaching the one- third pole this year, Lee has won five and lost seven and Bryant has won one and lost one. Lee failed yester- day for the fifth straight time in quest of his sixth victory. Bryant is back in Chicago nursing a mysteri- ous ailment which may prevent him from pitching again this year.
 With Lee and Bryant in form the Cubs would rank as the Reds most dangerous rival. Now they are just another ball club trying to stay in first division.
 Lee failed to finish yesterday as the Giants licked the Cubs, 5-3. Zeke BonJra's homer with mate on base was the winning blow, and Walter Brown did yeoman service in a three-inning relief role, re- placing Harry Gumbert. The de- feat left the Cubs in a tie with the Pirates for third place, but fifth place was only half game away.
 Lou Fette twirled victory No. 2 in his first start since his marriage Saturday as the Bees blanked the Pirates, 20. Fette yielded only three hits, and allowed only one Pirate to reach third. Madjeski's double, an error and Warstler's single account ed for the winning tally.
 The Cincinnati Reds increased their league lead to four games when they nosed the Phllies 3-2 in g night game at Philadelphia. Paul Derringer and Hugh Mulcahy each allowed seven hits, Derringer win ming his 8th victory. The Reds put on their winning burst in the third when Frey doubled, went to third on wild pitch, and scored after Mccormick walked and Ernie Lom- hardi beat out scratch hit. Crafts hit to center then brought home Mccormick with the games decid- ing run.
 With Joe DiMaggio playing his second game since he returned to the lineup, the Yanks walloped the White Sox for the second straight day, 7-2. DiMag hit a homer, dou- ble and single, drove in two runs and scored two. Alley Donald let the Sox down with seven hits for his sixth straight against no defeats.
 The Red Sox squandered a five run lead but finally beat the Browns in the ninth, 8-7. Pinch Hitter Lou FinneyS homer with a mate on tied the score in the eighth, and Tom Carey's double and two sacrifices ac- counted for the winning run in the ninth.
 Detroit finally beat the Athletics after losing five straight to them but lost the services of two players doing 1t. Dixie Walker sprained his knee and Billy Rogell was spiked by Joe Gantanbein as the Tigers won, 8-4. Walker will be out several weeks.
 Cleveland capitalized on five Washington errors to beat the Sena- tors, 7-5. Mel Harder, with some relief help from Willis Hudlin, won his first game. Ben Chapman's dou- ble. driving in two runs, was the important punch.
