KILLERS SHOOT DOWN TWO IN STREET CROWD-POLICE OBEYING ORDERS SHOOT FOUR
CHILD VICTIM OF TRAGEDY BURIED
   Five year old Michael VENEGHALLO, victim of a gangster's gun was buried 
today. Thousands paid him tribute, as police and plainclothesmen mingled in 
the throngs of Harlem's "Little Italy" in a hope of getting a clue to the men 
who shot him and four other playmates ruthlessly while gunning for a gang enemy.
   A white casket, smothered with dahlias, white roses and lilies, contained 
his broken body, mute evidence of the callousness of modern gang warfare. The 
teeming East Side streets were stilled as the procession passed to the church 
for the funeral rites. Sicilians, tight lipped, watched. His playmates wept.
   There was tenseness as twenty-five uniformed police and many 
plainclothesmen mingled in the funeral crowd.
   Little Michael's coffin was carried from his modest tenement flat by 
professional pallbearers. Then, in the street, four boys, in white, placed 
their shoulders under the casket and started the procession behind a flower 
banked automobile and empty white hearse to St. Ann's Church, four blocks away.
   A man hunt was on in the Italian District. Police had been ordered to 
"shoot to kill."
   Rewards totaling $25,000 had been offered, and they were increased today 
by $5000 through an offer by the Daily News.

BROOKLYN MURDER
   A clothing manufacturer had been murdered earlier in the day in Brooklyn 
as a result of reported labor troubles.
   Newspapers had announced riot squads armed with shotguns were to patrol 
the city that night in sixteen police cars.
   The American Legion had announced it would put 30,000 men under arms if 
necessary to help make the sidewalks of New York safe for children.
   Fear gripped the entire district. Then, four blocks from the VENEGHALLO 
home, Adolph Joseph (Dogs) GAZZOLA drove a yellow roadster from Second Avenue 
onto 103rd street. Three men gamblers rode with him, two in the rumble seat.
THREE SHOOT GAZZOLA
   Suddenly GAZZOLA's companions leaped out. The driver speeded up. One of 
the three emptied a revolver and two shots hit GAZZOLA.
   The other two fired wildly missing GAZZOLA, but hit Frank CRISTOFA. Two 
policemen checking nearby on the baby massacre of Tuesday, heard the gunfire. 
They ran to the scene.
   Two of GAZZOLA'z assailants were fleeing up a tenement stairs. Gunfire was 
impossible without possible injury to children and other innocent persons 
within range so the gunmen escaped.
   The two gunshot victims were rushed to a hospital. There, GAZZOLA, a petty 
racketeer linked with the Harlem policy gambling game, said: "It must have 
been two kids shooting pigeons on a roof that got me."
GAMBLER DENIES SQUEALING
   Meanwhile, Anthony (Big Teed) BUZZONE, reported yesterday as the target of 
the gunman who killed Michael VENEGHALLO and wounded his brother and three 
others, denied he was the intended victim or that he had given names of his 
"enemies" to the police. He remains sheltered in his home, fearing reprisals.
   Police, however, were watching hangouts of the known enemies of BUZZONE, a 
gambler reported to have paid higher odds on race bets than other bookmakers 
offered, with a resultant boom in his business.
   First victims of Police Commissioner MULROONEY's instructions to "shoot 
first from the waist up" were reported during the night. Patrolman Joseph Mc 
FARLAND wounded one of these thugs and captured another after they held up a 
cordial shop. Five detectives in a Harlem gun squad surprised four Negroes in 
a holdup, wounded three and captured all four.
TWO PATROLS HERE
Brooklyn is being patrolled by two rolling police arsenals every minute now, 
according to an announcement from police headquarters. At 12:01 am today two 
automobiles each filled with four policemen and two automatic shotguns, left 
headquarters, one going to Coney Island and lower Brooklyn and the other to 
Williamsburg. These squads are directly responsible to Sergeant Philip LYONS. 
Two more squads, under Acting Captain James KENNY, relieved them at 8:01 am 
while at 4:01 pm the second squads will be relieved by two more under 
Detective James SKULLY. These squads patrol the streets continuously and 
report hourly to the lieutenant at headquarters.

FERRERI DEATH CLUE FOUND IN ABANDONED CAR
AUTO PICKED UP ON BAY PARKWAY CONTAINED TWO SHOTGUNS
Police believe today that they have found the auto in which three men 
yesterday drove up before the home of Guido FERRERI at 1616 Ocean avenue, and 
killed him with the fire of both barrels of a shotgun.
The car was found last evening by Motorcycle Policeman Andrew MULHALL at Bay 
parkway and East Fourth street, with two shotguns inside. One of them had 
been discharged and the other, although loaded at the time it was discovered, 
gave evidence of having been recently fired.
Police today refused to reveal what they discovered in taking fingerprint 
impressions of both the guns and the door handles of the car, but said that 
the auto, whose license number was 6U-9690, was bought late in June from the 
Alba Auto Company, of 1401 McCoombs road, the Bronx. It was registered under 
the name of Pavola ANOLA of 116 Roebling street, Williamsburg.
At that address, police learned that nobody named ANOLA was known. The car 
was taken to the Sheepshead Bay station.
The death of FERRERI, who was standing before his home speaking with a 
neighbor when the car drove up and one of three passengers got out, and 
raising a shotgun fired point blank, is believed to be the result of labor 
troubles. There has recently been difficulty on the problem of whether a 
clothing factory owned by FERRERI and his brother should be unionized.
When questioned by Deputy Chief Inspector Vincent SWEENEY, Deputy Inspector 
George BISHOP and Acting Lieutenant Thomas M RIELLY, officials of the 
Amalgamated Clothing Union said they knew nothing of the shooting, and that 
they do not use such tactics as murder.

IDENTIFY BODY OF STRANGLED MAN IN QUEENS
VICTIM BOUND IN BLANKET WAS ANGELO DI MARIO OF MANHATTAN
The body of the man found bundled in blankets with rope and wire twisted 
around the neck in front of a laundry at 38 11 Thirtieth st., Long Island 
City, Monday morning has been positively identified as that of Angelo DI 
MARIA, of 350 East Seventy-seventh street, Manhattan.
The identification was made by three men said to be cousins of the murder 
victim who were questioned for hours Monday night and early Tuesday morning. 
According to the police they gave little information that would lead to a 
motive for DI MARIA's slaying. The names of the men questioned were not 
released by the police.
Police indicated that DI MARIA conducted a small confectionary store on the 
East Side where it was intimated small liquor sales were made.
Di MARIA's body was found early Monday morning outside a Long Island City 
laundry. Death had been caused by strangulation with a rope and wire around 
the neck. The legs were drawn up and bound against the chest by ropes, as 
were the arms. The body was discovered at 6:30 am by Patrolman James MC GILL, 
of the Hunter's Point precinct. The body had apparently been driven across 
the Queensboro bridge and dumped in the most convenient spot. Police are 
checking Di MARIA's last known movements in the belief he may have been 
involved in a neighborhood bootleg war.

had been arrested some time ago during a Communist demonstration.

subsequently convicted and electrocuted, but he never revealed WING as his 
accomplice.

8 August 1931
COL. FRANZ MAYER, SOLDIER, ADVENTURER, PASSES AT 84
FLORAL PARK VETERAN OF G. A. R.  HAD COLORFUL CAREER
   Col. Franz MAYER, 84 years old, one time soldier of fortune whose colorful 
career was well-known to thousands, died last night at his home, 179 Aspen 
street, Floral Park.
   Col. MAYER was one of the few remaining members of Lafayette Post, 40, 
G.A.R. He was born in Baden, Germany, and while very young ran away from home 
and came to the United States. He enlisted on the Union side at the beginning 
of the Civil War.
   In 1873 he joined a filibustering expedition on the Virginius, bound for 
Cuba, and he was one of those to be captured when the Virginius was rammed 
and sunk by a Spanish man- o' - war. He swam ashore but was captured there 
and placed in Morro Castle under sentence of death.
   With the aid of an old priest, and a saw and a rope made of torn strips of 
a blanket, he escaped. He swam a considerable distance toward a fishing 
smack, and on the way was bitten by sharks. He managed to reach the boat, but 
later his left leg and part of his right leg were amputated as a result of 
the shark bites.
   In 1898, Col. MAYER organized more than 3,000 men for duty in the 
Spanish-American War, but the war ended before he and his men could get to 
Cuba. One of his prized possessions was a letter of commendation from Col. 
Theodore Roosevelt.
   Col. MAYER was an honorary member of Andrew Fatcher Post, American Legion 
at Floral Park and he executed some remarkable marine paintings which hang on 
the walls of the post's headquarters.
   Surviving are two daughters, one son, six grandchildren and two great 
grandchildren. Funeral service will be held Sunday and interment will be in 
Lutheran Cemetery, Queens.

DANGEROUS L.I.R. CROSSING ADDS TWO TO DEATH TOLL; DRIVER ASLEEP, GIRL KILLED
DRIVER MAKES MISTAKE AT VALLEY STREAM AND TRAIN HITS CAR
   The Central avenue crossing of the Long Island Railroad at Valley Stream, 
which has repeatedly claimed lives in the last forty years, added two more to 
its list at 4:50 a.m. today.
   A third death was reported early today when a Brooklyn girl succumbed to 
injuries suffered when the man with whom she was riding on Sunrise highway, 
according to the police, went to sleep at the wheel of their car near 
Rockville Centre.
   James P. DIX, 27, cashier of the Pavillon Royal, a roadhouse on the 
Merrick road at Valley Stream, and an unidentified young woman companion were 
the two killed at the crossing.
SAYS GATES WERE DOWN
   Sidney WHITE, crossing watchman, said the gates were down when DIX's car 
approached, but the driver ignored his warnings and crashed through the gates 
into the path of the Babylon express.
   The train, bound for New York, struck the car, hurling the girl more than 
seventy-five feet and DIX more than 110 feet. The girl's clothing was torn 
from her body. It fell on the third rail and was consumed by fire.
   A train passed in the opposite direction a moment after the wreck and the 
demolished automobile was jammed between the eastbound and westbound cars.
   The Valley Stream police emergency squad was called and an investigation 
was started by Detectives John KARNEY and Joseph HIZENSKI, of the Nassau 
County police.
TAKE BODIES TO MORGUE
   Frank ZEISER, of Jamaica was the motorman of the train, and Aaron BRYANT, 
of 135-03 Jerome avenue, Richmond Hill, the conductor. The two bodies were 
taken to the morgue at MOORE's undertaking parlors in Valley Stream.
   The third person killed was Miss Mildred AUMAN, 18, of 244 Decatur street, 
Brooklyn. She was riding with James B. SCHREMPF, 24, of 244 Decatur street, 
when their machine crashed into a traffic sign at Morris avenue and Sunrise 
Highway, Rockville Centre.
   Police Sergeant George F. CONSTOCK reported that SCHREMPF said he fell 
asleep at the wheel of the car. The girl died while being taken to a hospital.

TRIES SUICIDE ON FAILURE TO SHOOT WOMAN
JILTED WIDOWER, CORNERED, FIRES BULLET INTO HEAD; SLASHES WRISTS
   Cornered by the police in the rear yard of his former sweetheart's home 
after she had thrown him over when she learned he was a widower with six 
children and whom he had been chasing with a loaded revolver in retaliation, 
John HUMANEY, 38, of 299 South Second street, early to-day turned his gun 
against his left temple and pulled the trigger. He is dying in Greenpoint 
Hospital from the bullet wound and loss of blood from several arteries in his 
wrists.
   The shooting took place at 215 Bedford avenue, where Mrs. Anna ELCYSIOS, 
37, herself the widowed mother of two grown daughters, has an apartment. The 
two were friendly, it was said, until about a week ago, when Mrs. ELCYSIOS 
learned about the six little HUMANEYs.
   Since then she had refused to see her admirer, despite efforts on his part 
to continue the friendship. Early today HUMANEY went to the Bedford avenue 
address, with a loaded revolver. He rang Mrs. ELCYSIOS' bell and when she 
answered it and saw who her caller was, she slammed the door in his face.
   HUMANEY promptly put his right fist through the glass panel of the door, 
severing an artery in his arm, and chased her upstairs. She fled screaming 
before him and slammed the door of her own apartment. This also had glass 
panels, which he also smashed, severing an artery in his left wrist.
   The object of his affections fled to the fire escape and finally took 
refuge in the apartment of a woman friend, while HUMANEY raged up and down 
the fire escape searching for her. Meanwhile neighbors had summoned the 
police and Sergeant Benjamin BAILEY and Patrolman Frank CARRILLO arrived to 
calm things down. They pursued HUMANEY to the roof of the building, but he 
eluded them and fled down the fire escape.
   The barking of a dog in the rear yard of 215 Bedford avenue gave his 
location away and the officers started after him. Realizing that he couldn't 
get away, he shot himself in the left temple and dropped mortally wounded. In 
Greenpoint Hospital a charge of attempted assault has been lodged against him 
in case he recovers, which is regarded as most unlikely.

TUGBOAT CAPTAIN DIES OF WOUNDS
   A charge of homicide was lodged to-day against Charles MINER, captain of 
the tugboat R. S. Dennison, following the death in Cumberland Hospital early 
today of Edward CANN, captain of the tugboat A.D.Ruddy, with whom he had a 
fight shortly before midnight Thursday.
   The police were told that the two men, whose boats belong to the same 
company, fought over a woman, where their boats were tied up at the foot of 
Columbia street, and MINER shot CANN in the left side. He was to have a 
hearing in Homicide Court later to-day.

POISONED FOOD KILLS WOMAN; HUSBAND DYING
DRINKING FOLLOWS EATING OF SHRIMP AT DINNER, DETECTIVES LEARN
   Shrimp for dinner followed by a party at which there was drinking, brought 
death to Mrs. Alice CASEY, 24, a pretty blonde, living at 458 Eastern 
parkway, and may result fatally for her husband, Frank, 26, who is in Kings 
County Hospital.
   The couple were found in the hallway of their home at 5 a.m. today. 
Patrolman Edward DOGHERTY sent in an ambulance call and Dr. COCO of Swedish 
Hospital said the woman was dead and rushed the husband to the hospital as an 
alcoholic case.
   It was at first thought both had been drinking liquor which poisoned them. 
Detectives REILLY and MC NAMEE of the Empire boulevard station, found 
evidence in the ground floor apartment of the couple that they had eaten 
shrimp for dinner last night.
   The officers learned that the couple visited friends after dinner, leaving 
their two children with other friends in Flatbush. Although it is now 
believed that death was caused by ptomaine poisoning as a result of mixing 
alcohol and sea food, an autopsy is to be performed on Mrs. CASEY's body 
to-day. CASEY, police say, is an insurance broker.

J. REISENWEBER DIES OF STROKE AT WOODMERE
NOTED RESTAURATEUR WAS IN HIS EIGHTIETH YEAR
   John REISENWEBER, for more than half a century the head of REISENWEBER's, 
one of the best known establishments in New York, a former political power as 
lieutenant of the late Senator Thomas C. PLATT, died yesterday at his home, 
708 Central avenue, Woodmere, L.I. He never recovered from a paralytic stroke 
he suffered on June 19, while playing golf at the Inwood Golf Club. He would 
have been eighty years old on Oct. 7.
   He is survived by a daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Louis FISCHER, 
who were with him at the time of his death. A granddaughter, Mrs. Theresa 
F.S. CRUTCHFIELD, of Lexington, Ky., are on the way to attend the funeral.
   Funeral services will be held at his late residence at 8:30 p.m. on 
Tuesday evening, Aug. 11. Interment will be in the REISENWEBER family vault 
at Greenwood Cemetery on Wednesday at 10 a.m.
   Mr. REISENWEBER was probably the oldest and best restaurateur in this 
country. He represented the fast-vanishing school of restaurant men which 
included such names as RECTOR, MARTIN, MOUQUIN, HEALY, MURRAY, SHANLEY, and 
CAVANAUGH. At an early age, John REISENWEBER assumed the management of the 
restaurant bearing his name, which his father established in 1856 at Columbus 
Circule, in what was then known as Bloomingdale road. At the time the 
establishment was surrounded by miles of farm land, and the patronage 
consisted of tourists who drove up in mail coaches.
   With the advent of the bicycle craze the house grew and Mr. REISENWEBER 
was obliged to install additional facilities for the growing trade. 
REISENWEBER's in time began to attract patronage from all parts of the city, 
and its fame grew until it was a by-word for the better type of dining. In 
1901 he placed his son-in-law, Louis FISCHER, in charge of the management, 
and together they laid the foundation of what was destined to become one of 
the greatest dining institutions in the world.
   REISENWEBER's was the first to initiate dancing for its patrons and was 
instrumental in introducing the modern cabaret.  They also installed the 
modern "cover charge" in 1913, when the fee for witnessing their elaborate 
entertainment specialties was twenty-five cents, an exorbitant sum at that 
time. The establishment grew in size until it occupied a half block front on 
Eighth avenue and extended for hundreds of feet along Fifty-eighth street. It 
housed a dozen dining rooms, employed more than 1,000 in help and seated 
5,000 diners at one time. With the advent of prohibition, REISENWEBER's 
liquidated its business and ceased to exist.
   In the late eighties, REISENWEBER became the Republican leader of the 
Nineteenth Assembly District, which at that time extended from Fifty-second 
street to the northernmost end of Manhattan Island. He became a power in the 
political life of New York although he never held public office. His 
political opponent in the same district was John F. CURRY, now head of 
Tammany Hall.
   In 1921 he and Mrs. REISENWEBER celebrated their fiftieth anniversary and 
were received at the White House by President Harding. Mrs. REISENWEBER died 
three years ago.
   John REISENWEBER was one of the oldest members of the Masonic fraternity. 
He had been a member of Charity Lodge, No. 727, F. and A.M. since 1876. Three 
years later he became its master and was elevated to an office in the Grand 
Lodge in 1912. He was a member of many years standing in Lodge No. 1, B. P. 
O. E., the New York Athletic Club, The Eighth Avenue Association and was 
affiliated with many financial and charitable institutions.

another barge tied alongside, in an argument over two women, Aug. 7.

WILSON, he said, and MINER left, but returned later and resumed the argument.

at CAMM. Only one shot hit CAMM, but he died late that night.

COP IN LIQUOR RAID CHARGES ENDS HIS LIFE
SERGT. HERRSCHAFT, 20 YEARS ON FORCE, SENDS BULLET THROUGH HEAD
   Police Sergt. Charles HERRSCHAFT, 48, one of the nine sergeants of the 
Sheepshead Bay police station who were transferred after police arrested 
fourteen supposed bootleggers at Gerrittsen Beach the morning of July 26, was 
found shot to death this morning in the locker room of the Liberty avenue station.
   HERRSCHAFT, who had been in the Police Department for twenty years, was 
assigned to the Liberty avenue station two days ago.
   It was shortly after 7 a.m. today when a patrolman on the first floor of 
the building heard a shot from the locker room upstairs. He notified Sergeant 
Thomas HARDING, who found HERRSCHAFT sitting in a chair, a bullet through his 
head and his service revolver on the floor beside him. One cartridge had been exploded.
WAS PRESENT AT TRIAL
   Sergt. HERRSCHAFT attended the trial of Patrolman Clement DRUMMONDO, of 
the Sheepshead Bay station yesterday before Third Deputy Commissioner LEACH.
   DRUMMONDO was one of the officers who arrested the suspected bootleggers 
and captured 190 cases of supposed liquor, a motorboat, a truck and two 
passenger automobiles. One of the prisoners was shot.
   He was, however, charged with intoxication at his trial. Dr. Joseph H. 
KLEIN of 2000 Eighty-fourth street, said his car and one driven by DRUMMONDO 
were in collision in front of 2516 Ocean avenue at 1:30 a.m. on July 26, a 
few hours before DRUMMONDO and the others captured the fourteen men.
CHARGES TURNED DOWN
   The policeman, he said, was intoxicated, swore at him, twisted his arm and 
gave him a summons. Dr. KLEIN said he went to the station house with 
DRUMMONDO and there preferred charges of intoxication against the man. 
The charges, he said, were denied by the sergeant on duty, who refused 
to call a police surgeon to examine DRUMMONDO.
   HERRSCHAFT was one of about twenty policemen, detectives and sergeants who 
testified that DRUMMONDO was not drunk and did not do any of the things Dr. 
KLEIN mentioned. They praised him for his work in capturing the fourteen men.
   HERRSCHAFT was a widower living with his daughter and her husband at 1900 
Albermarle road.

RIDE VICTIM
   State police at Bay Shore, L.I., said today that Samuel GROSSMAN of the

associated in a number of projects.
   Three bullets ended GROSSMAN's life on lonely Howell avenue, at a point 
between Brightwaters and North Babylon.
   There was no clew (sic) to the identity of his assailants, but State

GIRL FOUND DEAD, DOCTOR DYING
GUARD OUTSIDE DOOR SAYS HE HEARD SHOTS
CASE VEILED IN MYSTERY - DOCTOR AND POLICE BLAME TRAGEDY ON GIRL
   Dr. Milton THOMASHEFSKY, a well-known Brooklyn eye and ear specialist, lay 
dying today in Jewish Hospital,  his legs paralyzed, and left lung collapsed 
from a bullet in his spine, while police traced his attachment for his 
secretary, Miss Agnes BIRDSEYE, which ended in a double tragedy. Police say 
she shot him last night in his suite at Turner Towers on Eastern Parkway and 
killed herself.
   A maze of contradictory clues led investigators to believe at first that 
others had plotted the doctor's death. He was chloroformed and curiously 
attacked with a surgical knife in his office Monday night and had lived in 
mortal fear, accompanied always by an engineer and close personal friend up 
to the time of the shooting.
   But police announced definitely this afternoon that Miss BIRDSEYE, 
handsome and red-haired, had fired the shots from a .38 calibre revolver 
found by her body when they discovered among the doctor's effects a letter 
written him by another young woman now summering in the Adirondacks.
   Miss BIRDSEYE, of a different faith than Dr. THOMASHEFSKY, a former 
student at Erasmus Hall and at Packer Institute, and daughter of Lewis E. 
BIRDSEYE, assistant superintendent at Jewish Hospital, was acutely jealous of 
the writer of the letter, Miss Norma BERNSTEIN, police said, from the time 
Miss BERNSTEIN met the doctor a month ago.
   The letter Miss BERNSTEIN wrote Dr. THOMASHEFSKY was dated Aug. 10 and 
read in part:
"Mickey Dear:
   "I am not laughing now, I am put 
DOCTOR DYING; SECRETARY SLAIN
out. I am surprised that anyone would stoop so low as to write such a letter. 
I believed that you would not give he matter serious thought."
   "II have read about such people, but never dreamed that anyone would do 
such a rotten thing. I surmise who wrote it, and I will avoid that person in 
the future. Where was the letter mailed from? Was it signed or was it 
anonymous?"
   "Oh, bosh! Why worry about it. But it does not seem that a lousy thing 
like that should occur."
   Then Miss BERNSTEIN turned to camp affairs, telling him she had put in a 
full day at work, that the Casino was being turned into a night club and she 
thought it would be the hit of the season, that her parents had visited her 
for a few days and at the time of writing the letter she was lonely and felt 
like returning to New York with her sister.
   The letter ended:
   "Oh, did I forget to tell you, dear darling, that I miss you so much."
   Dr. THOMASHEFSKY spent July at the camp where Miss BERNSTEIN is 
vacationing, police were told. Police say Miss BIRDSEYE found the letter and 
quarreled bitterly with the doctor Monday night. It was at 5 o'clock Tuesday 
morning that Dr. THOMASHEFSKY awoke in his office with a throbbing head, 
realizing he had been chloroformed. He had told his friend, Philip PINES, he 
found himself slashed in three places, with adeptly made bandages already in 
place over the wounds.
   Miss BIRDSEYE's father admitted to the police his daughter had returned to 
their home at 249A Brooklyn avenue Monday night, but insisted a third person 
had done the shooting.
   Discovery of the letter and word of the quarrel led them to believe, 
however, that Miss BIRDSEYE chloroformed and slashed Dr. THOMASHEFSKY Monday 
night, and finished her affair with bullets two nights later.
   Elimination of two other holes in this theory came today. The gun found by 
Miss BIRDSEYE's hand, as she lay across a doorsill in the doctor's apartment, 
was "broken" and the empty cartridge shells were on the floor. Gun experts 
said it was probably jarred open and the shells knocked out as Miss BIRDSEYE fell.
An autopsy disclosed a bullet had entered her abdomen and had emerged at 
her right hip, and the other had entered the right side of her head, 
penetrating the brain. This had caused instant death.
   One of her eyes was black. A doctor said the bullet wound had caused that 
internal hemorrhage.
   The text of Miss BERNSTEIN's letter to Dr. THOMASHEFSKY was not disclosed. 
But it was her defense of character to the doctor, in answer to a questioning 
letter he had written her after he received an anonymous letter referring to 
her life. That letter had not been found. Police said they thought Miss 
BIRDSEYE might have written it out of jealousy.
   The physician was a son of Boris and Bessie THOMASHEFSKY, long eminent on 
the Yiddish stage. His home was at 255 Eastern Parkway. Thomas, a brother of 
the doctor, said the family was surprised at the police theory that there had 
been a romance between Dr. THOMASSHEFSKY and his secretary as he had always 
been regarded by his family as a "woman hater."
   A friend of Dr. THOMASHEFSKY was ringing the doctor's private doorbell at 
the moment the revolver shots were heard, and within a few moments the bodies 
were discovered.
   Philip PINES, of 273 Eastern parkway, the engineer, was ringing the 
doctor's doorbell as the shots were fired.
   "I was with him most of yesterday," the engineer told police. "I had gone 
home for about an hour and was returning to go to supper with him when I 
walked almost into the shooting."
HEARD THREE SHOTS
   "I went, first to the private entrance to his office on Eastern Parkway, 
about twenty feet from the main entrance. I rang the bell, waited a moment - 
and then I heard a shot."
   "I ran toward the main entrance and, as I turned in under the canopy, I 
heard another shot."
   "I rushed to the door of the doctor's suite, which also opens into the 
lobby of the building. The door was locked. I was trying to get in when I 
heard a third shot."
   The building superintendent appeared with a key. The two went inside. 
Police were told later that PINE's first exclamation on seeing the bodies 
inside was, "My God!. They got him."
   It was police queries on this that brought to light the strange attack on 
the doctor Monday night.
   Dr. THOMASHEFSKY refused at first to talk to police in the Jewish 
Hospital. Finally, he told Dr. Harry ROSEN of the hospital staff  Miss 
BIRDSEYE fired the shots. District Attorney GEOGHAN said today the doctor 
lying on his hospital cot had repeated this in his presence before the 
paralysis which collapsed his lung had rendered him too weak for extended 
questioning.
   Miss BIRDSEYE and Dr. THOMASHEFSKY were "Boo Boo" and "Mickey" to each 
other, friends said. In the girl's pocketbook police found a diamond 
solitaire and a wedding ring. Neither was inscribed.
   Her father, Lewis E. BIRDSEYE, a former chief clerk in the District 
Attorney's office and former secretary of the State Civil Service Commission, 
insisted his daughter did not shoot either the doctor or herself. he knew of 
no intimacy between them, he said, or any jealousy.
   Mr. BIRDSEYE, who lives at 249A Brooklyn avenue, said:
   "If I knew anything that would throw light on the case I would not 
hesitate to tell it."
   " I knew that my daughter worked for Dr. THOMASHEFSKY,  but I had no 
knowledge of any tender feelings between them, and I don't believe now that 
there were any such feelings."
   "I feel that someone else shot them both, but I haven't any idea what the 
motive may have been."
   An autopsy was to be performed today on Miss BIRDSEYE.
   Meanwhile, physicians at the hospital said, everything possible was being 
done to save the doctor, but there was little hope he would live. He would be 
an invalid, they said, if he did.
(14 August 1931) DOCTOR, DYING, SAYS HE TRIED TO KILL HIMSELF WHEN SHOT
BROKE OPEN GUN USED BY MISS BIRDSEYE, HE TELLS GEOGHAN
   Dr. Milton THOMASHEFSKY hovered between life and death in Jewish Hospital 
today, the pain from a bullet in his spine eased by morphine, while District 
Attorney Francis F.X. GEOGHAN disclosed the remainder of the doctor's story 
of the double love tragedy which was climaxed when his secretary, Agnes 
BIRDSEYE, shot him and killed herself in his office at 135 Eastern Parkway.
   "Dr. THOMASHEFSKY told me," the prosecutor said, "that it was he who broke 
open the pistol found in Miss BIRDSEYE's hand."
   Mr. GEOGHAN quoted the doctor as whispering:
   "I knew I had been shot in the spine. I opened the gun to see how many 
bullets were left. I wanted to finish the job."
   Meanwhile the other woman in the triangle, Norma Jean BERNSTEIN, whose 
interest in the doctor inspired Miss BIRDSEYE to prevent a marriage by 
violence, was in Manhattan, ready for questioning.
   She hurried back last night from the Adirondack camp where she was 
spending the summer. She was to be questioned in Brooklyn Police Headquarters 
this afternoon.
   Dr. THOMASHEFSKY himself, propped up on a cot in Jewish Hospital, where 
Miss BIRDSEYE"S father is Assistant Superintendent, told his story of the 
tragedy.
   Miss BIRDSEYE had been employed by Dr. THOMASHEFSKY for seven years. To 
him she was "Boo Boo," friends said, and he was "Mickey" to her. Dr. 
THOMASHEFSKY was introduced to Miss BERNSTEIN two months ago, and from that 
moment, he said, Miss BIRDSEYE had shown increasing jealousy.
   She sent him,  first, an anonymous letter, attacking Miss BERNSTEIN at 
Point 'O Woods Camp in the Adirondacks where she was spending the summer as 
hostess and counselor.
   She wrote him a reply defending herself and denouncing the writer of the 
letter, whose identity, she wrote, she could easily guess.
   Miss BIRDSEYE, seeing this measure was futile, then took another step to 
express her anger. Monday night in Dr. THOMASHEFSKY's office, he said, she 
chloroformed him while he slept, and began a crude operation which she left 
unfinished.
SAYS GIRL CONFESSED
   When Dr. THOMASHEFSKY awoke Tuesday morning to find himself superficially 
mutilated, he found also a note, pencilled on a piece of newspaper pinned to 
his door. It was addressed to "Harry," and read, "This will even an old 
score." Harry was the name of Dr. THOMASHEFSKY"s brother.
   The doctor suspected it was put there to mislead him, and on Wednesday, he 
said, he accused Miss BIRDSEYE of the mutilation and the letter, and she 
confessed.
   That was but a short time before the shooting. Angrily the doctor told the 
girl she was dismissed, that there could never be anything between them.
   But Miss BIRDSEYE, torn by anguish, refused tomlisten, the doctor said, 
and spoke again of marriage.
   At this moment the office bell rang, and as the doctor walked toward the 
door the girl ran to a desk, he said, drew out a pistol and fired at his 
back.
   As he whirled about and fell, he said, she placed the gun against her 
abdomen, fired a second shot, then raised it to her head and fired again.
   Miss BIRDSEYE died instantly. The doctor was writhing on the floor near 
her body when the caller, PINES, entered with the building superintendent.
   Despite Dr. THOMASHEFSKY's story, Miss BIRDSEYE's father, Lewis BIRDSEYE, 
prominent in Republican politics and a former secretary of the Police 
Department, insisted last night his daughter had not shot the doctor or herself.
   "Agnes," he said, "did not do this. I know it and I will get to the bottom of it."
   Part of the physician's statement was withheld by police, and there was at 
least one indication that the argument which preceded the shooting was longer 
than he had said. There was the fact that Miss BIRDSEYE had a black eye when 
she was found and the office was in general disorder.
   A half hour before she had telephoned her sister Florence at their home, 
249 A Brooklyn avenue. She said "something terrible has happened," and 
promised to tell more about it when she returned for dinner.
   Miss BERNSTEIN, daughter of Sidney J. BERNSTEIN, an attorney of 334 West 
Eighty-sixth street hurried back from the camp to New York last night, and 
was questioned briefly by the investigators at Brooklyn Police Headquarters. 
She left, promising to return today.
LOVE HOPELESS
   The letter she wrote Dr. THOMASHEFSKY referring to the anonymous attack 
was found in his coat pocket. It began: "Dear, darling Mickey," and closed:: 
"Oh, did I remember to tell you dear, darling Mickey, that I miss you so much?"
   But Dr. THOMASHEFSKY, hovering between life and death, told questioners at 
the hospital there had never been anything more between them than friendship.
   As to Miss BIRDSEYE, he said he had taken her to the theatre and to dinner 
occasionally, and conceded her infatuation for him, but added he had always 
told her it was hopeless.
   Miss BERNSTEIN studied art in Paris two years. She is twenty-four. Dr. 
THOMASHEFSKY is the son of Boris and Bessie THOMASHEFSKY, famous on the 
Yiddish stage. He was thirty-four and had never been married.

DEATH BATTLE WITH GIANT DESCRIBED BY SHIP'S OFFICER
FISTS, AXE AND GUN EMPLOYED - RUM-CRAZED MATE SUBDUED
   Fists, a fire axe and a gun figured in a battle to the death between 
Leonard C ADAMS, slow speaking, powerfully built chief officer of the 
American freighter Sundance, and a giant Estonian seaman, ADAMS revealed as 
he was arrested charged with murder on the high seas.
   ADAMS was seized on a Federal warrant as he arrived on the Homeric, en 
route to his wife and children in So. Jacksonville, Fla. He had been 
exonerated on the murder charge by Belgian officials and was to report this 
week to operators of the Sundance at Jacksonville.
   The accused man, a war veteran, and for thirty-nine years a seaman, 
described the dead sailor as Myak WOOKER, 6 feet 6 inches tall, powerful, "as 
fine a mate as a man could wish when his brain was not befuddled with 
liquor."
   "WOOKER could do the work of three men sober; at other times, he was 
vicious. Once he chopped his way into quarters of a Negro crew and threatened 
to kill them all." ADAMS said.
   The Sundance left Savannah, June 30. In Ghent many of the crew went ashore 
against orders. Belgian police rounded up the missing seamen and put them 
aboard in a roaring, mutinous mood.
   ADAMS went to rout out WOOKER, who, he said, was "hiding under his bunk." 
He got him on deck. Then WOOKER ran for a passageway, he said, "and there in 
the dark the battle began. WOOKER swung. I blocked him. He jumped on me, then 
kicked me foul. I fell. WOOKER, screaming, grabbed the fire axe and, as I 
scrambled to my feet, I fired at him, the bullet piercing the skull as the 
big Estonian dropped the axe at my feet. " ADAMS said.

DRIVE FOLLOWS TRIPLE KILLING IN SPEAKEASY
POLICE OPEN CAMPAIGN ON  RESORTS - VICE REPORT NAMED SECTION
   Police Commissioner MULROONEY today ordered every available detective to 
join a drive to eliminate speakeasies and vice resorts in Brooklyn following 
the murder of three men in a speakeasy known as the Green Cottage Inn at 91 
Fourteenth street late last night.
   The triple killing is believed to have been the result of a drunken orgy 
in the place sometime yesterday or to have been part of another beer war 
flare-up.
   Several persons were seen to leave the place prior to the bodies' 
discovery, but from neighbors descriptions it was impossible to determine if 
they were customers or gangsters or both.
   The dead men were:
   ANGELO SEMONELLO, 30, of 167 Eighteenth street
   ANGELO MATURA, 36,  of 57 Sullivan street, Manhattan
   Joseph BARBERO, 24, of 6404 Tenth avenue.   
The bodies of SEMONELLO and MATURA lay at the foot of the cellar stairs, 
and BARBERO was sprawled across the top step in an attitude that suggested he 
had been trying to get out before he died.
   The bodies were covered with stab wounds but there were no evidences of a 
struggle of any sort. The place was disorderly but not disarranged, according 
to police. The bodies were discovered by Thomas WILSON, a probationary 
patrolman.

BOY DROWNED AT PLUM BEACH AS ANOTHER RESCUES THREE
YOUNG "EXPLORER" SINKS IN GERRITTSEN CREEK WITH PLAYMATES
   Kenneth SUTHERLAND, four, was drowned today in Gerrittsen Creek, and only 
the efforts of another boy of fourteen saved the lives of three other 
children, who had wandered alone across 500 feet of marsh from the Plum Beach 
bungalow colony on an exploring trip.
   Thomas O'CALLAHAN, 14, of 72 Plum Beach, saw the other three, Robert 
McKEE, 4; his sister, Rachel, 3, and Arlene ZUCK, 2, floating helplessly on 
the creek near a rowboat.
   Rachel was hanging on to the boat. The boy dived in and soon had the 
children on shore. Rachel wanted to know about Kenneth, and that sent Harold 
ANDERSON, a passer-by into the water in search of the SUTHERLAND boy. He 
found him underneath the flatbottom of the boat, brought him ashore and was 
trying to revive him when Patrolman Frank GARVEY of the Sheepshead precinct 
hurried over from a police booth.
   In a short time, Rescue Squad 11 headed by Sergt. George HOLST and an 
ambulance from Harbor Hospital were at the scene. HOLST and his men and 
Ambulance Surgeon GREENBERG worked a half hour over the SUTHERLAND boy before 
giving up hope he could be revived. The others were treated for submersion 
and are out of danger.
   Young SUTHERLAND's mother is seriously ill in Coney Island Hospital and 
has not been told of the accident. The family summers at Plum Beach, and 
lives the rest of the year at 6045 Sixtieth road, Glendale.
   The SUTHERLAND boy, it was said, is no relation to Kenneth F. SOUTHERLAND, 
assistant to the president of the Board of Alderman and leader of  the 
Sixteenth Assembly District.

In Memorium
CULLEN - Alice. In sad and loving memory of my dear mother. Died Aug. 14, 
1927.
   She little thought when leaving home
   She would return no more,
   That she in death so soon would sleep
   And leave us here to mourn.
   Four years have passed since that sad day
   The one we loved was called away;
   God took her home, it was His will
   But in our hearts she liveth still.
DAUGHTER MAE AND FAMILY

CULLEN - In sad and constant memory of my dear mother who departed this life 
Aug. 14, 1927.
   I often sit and think of you
   And think of how you died;
   To think you could not say good-bye
   Before you closed your eyes.
   For all of us, you did your best
   May God grant you eternal rest.
SCHILPP FAMILY

LANSING - In loving remembrance of my beloved mother, Louisa, who passed on 
to a better world, July 29, 1931
   A vision came before me
   So fair, so pure, so sweet,
   Of one whose lips are silent
   Whose heart had ceased to beat.
   My heart grows sad and weary,
   As I sit and oft recall
   The things you have done, dear mother mine,
   I could never name them all.
   Your well remembered footsteps,
   I listen, but in vain,
   My eyes grow dim with teardrops,
   When they whisper your dear, sweet name.
YOUR LOVING DAUGHTER LORETTA

THREE BATHERS LOSE LIVES IN LOCAL WATERS
BODIES OF TWO WHO DROWNED OVER WEEKEND NOT YET RECOVERED
   Three persons were drowned and two were rescued yesterday in local waters 
despite calm seas. Two of the bodies have not been recovered yet. 
The dead were:
	ANTON EHRENBERG, 29, of 5857 Seventy-ninth avenue, Glendale; drowned in 
Jamaica Bay off Kennedy's Inn, Rockaway Point
EHRENBERG was swimming beyond his depth, according to other bathers, and 
suddenly shouted for help and sank. Several rescuers dove for him for some 
time before he was brought ashore. Dr. KOCH, of the Rockaway Beach Hospital 
declared him dead after vain police efforts to revive him.
	WILLIAM JOHNSON, 26, attached to the First Tank Corps, U.S. Army, Miller 
Field, Staten Island; drowned in Deep Creek, Barren Island.
JOHNSON, according to Arthur O'BRIEN, of 265 Clinton street, a friend, 
suddenly sank while swimming in the creek. Harbor Squad police have failed to 
locate his body yet.
	JOSEPH NETUSIL, 26, of 67 Halsey street, Astoria; drowned in Long Island 
Sound off Crab Meadow Beach, Northport.  
      NETUSIL, with his brother, Albert, 24, and Edward RENNERT, 42, of 34-20 
Twenty-seventh street, Astoria, was wading on  a sand bar three hundred feet 
from shore when all three stepped into a hole and disappeared. Others on the 
beach went to rescue them and his brother and RENNERT were pulled out.
   Rescuers were unable, however, to find NETUSIL and his body has not been 
recovered. His brother and RENNERT were given treatment in the Huntington Sea 
Scouts emergency tent and the former was taken to Huntington Hospital by a 
Huntington Fire Department emergency crew. RENNERT was taken home.
   There were neither drownings nor rescues at the Rockaways, however, where 
400,000 were attracted by the warm sun.

BUS IN CRASH MOUNTS CURB, KILLS INFANT
ANOTHER ABBY HAS FRACTURE OF SKULL
MOTHERS PUSHING CARTS, HURT
   A thirteen-month-old baby is dead and another ten-month old is suffering 
from a fractured skull and internal injuries as a result of a crash between 
an auto and a bus of the S. and F. Transportation Company, of 116-10 Rockaway 
boulevard, South Jamaica.
   The bus, driven by John F. ESPOSITO, 23, of 1680 East Twelfth street, was

BESSIE MC COY, MRS DAVIS DIES
   Mrs. Richard HARDING DAVIS, widow of the famous American author and

received by Goudert Brothers, Lawyers.

disclose the cause of death.
   Bessie MC COY held New York enthralled in her "Yama Yama" song and dance 
in "The Three Twins".

BODY WRAPPED IN BUNDLE WAS MANHATTANITE
FRIEND CLAIMS CORPSE IS THAT OF CAESAR LA FORTE
   Gangsters put another man on the spot in Brooklyn today. They fractured 
his nose, shot him through he face, wrapped his body in oilcloth and paper 
and dumped it near the Gowanus Canal.
   A garage foreman, William GILPATRICK, passed in front of the Burns 
Brothers Coal Yard at 163 Second avenue at 1 a.m. and the street was bare. A 
half hour later he passed again and found the gruesome package.
   The lonely spot is eight blocks from the speakeasy at 91 Fourteenth 
street, where three men were murdered last week, but police declined to 
comment on a possible relationship.
   This afternoon, after roping off the spot, questioning hundreds of taxicab 
drivers and running down a fruitless clue found in the man's pockets, police 
escorted Louis GAMZALEY, of 319 Pearl street, to Kings County morgue where he 
identified the victim as Caesar LA FORTE, 24, of Twenty-seventh street, 
Manhattan. Police were questioning GAMZALEY further this afternoon to learn 
more about his friend.
POLICE FIND SCANT CLUES
   Within an hour after GILPATRICK had found the body, the victim's 
fingerprints were rushed to the Rogue's Gallery, but he had no police record 
here. He was still unidentified today.
   He was five feet nine inches tall, and weighed 160 pounds and was about 
28. He had dark hair and swarthy complexion. He wore a blue suit, blue shirt, 
black and white tie, black oxfords, red socks and a black belt with the 
initial "L."
   The only scrap of paper in his pockets bore the name "PUIG" with an 
address in East Ninety-second street, but a check-up threw no new light on 
who he might be.
BULLET PIERCED HEAD
   The body was taken at 5 a.m. to Kings County morgue, after Ambulance 
Surgeon DAMBOA of Holy Family Hospital examined it and said the man had been 
dead only two hours when he was found.
   The bullet from a small calibre gun, had gone clear through the man's head 
and out at the back. There were no other marks on him, save for the crushed nose.
   Five hundred persons gathered on the spot, while police of Emergency Squad 
No. 13 and detectives under Deputy Chief Inspector Thomas CUMMINGS tried 
vainly to establish his identity.

OPENS KITCHEN JETS AFTER CLOSING DOORS
LEAVES RAMBLING NOTE
HUSBAND CALLED FROM WORK WAS OVERCOME
   Mrs. Marcell RAMIEZ wrote a note asking forgiveness, in the squalid 
kitchen of her home at 349 Hamilton avenue today, put her three children, 
Vincent, 2; William, 4; and Michael, 6, in bed, closed all the outside doors 
and windows and turned on three jets on the kitchen stove.
   This afternoon, despite the efforts of Police and Gas emergency squads, 
the mother and children were dead and Bartholemew RAMIEZ, the husband, was in 
Kings County Hospital, in a state of collapse.
   The note Mrs. RAMIEZ wrote in Spanish was addressed "Dear F.and M." It 
read:  
   "It is a bitter pill to suffer, but I can't stand this any longer. I hope 
that God forgives me and I know that you will forgive me."
   It bore the address, 1193 East Thirty-fourth street, the home of Mrs. 
RAMIEZ's parents.
SUMMONED FROM WORK
   RAMIEZ was summoned from the Independent Salt Works, at Smith and Bush 
streets, shortly after noon by Mrs. Jenny NICHOLS, who had smelled the gas.
   When RAMIEZ arrived, he unlocked the door with his latch key, then 
collapsed on seeing his wife and three children lying in their beds overcome 
by the fumes. His wife's note lay on a table.
   All the victims were taken out of the fume-filled apartment into the

22 August 1931 Saturday
CHILD VICTIM DIES, TWO MORE MAY SUCCUMB
FIFTEEN IN HOSPITALS AFTER THUGS SLAY TWO POLICE IN BRONX STREETS
   Gloria LOPEZ, three years old, died today of shotgun slugs, the second 
baby victim of gangsters within a month, the sixth fatality in the gun battle 
which blazed a ten-mile crimson trail of dead and wounded late yesterday 
through upper Manhattan and the Bronx.
   Two patrolman were killed in the holocaust, the two bandits and their taxi 
driver were slain, two other persons are dying, eleven are in hospitals 
wounded and hundreds narrowly escaped flying bullets as bandits and police 
fought it out from automobiles and charging motorcycles in a ninety minute 
engagement with more than 1,000 bullets.
MOTHER BREAKS DOWN
   The baby Gloria's father, Fireman John LOPEZ, was in Morrisania Hospital 
today, wounded by the flying glass when bandit bullets sprayed the windshield 
of his machine.
   Gloria's mother, expecting another child, was asleep in the same hospital 
when Gloria died. Taken there and revived after the first shock, she had 
watched through most of the night, hoping Gloria would pull through. Finally, 
overcome by the strain, she fell asleep. Early this morning Mrs. LOPEZ 
wakened. faces about her told her the news.
   "Mother of God." She cried, and ran from the hospital, away from her dead.
VICTIMS DROP IN STREETS
   Police, firemen, motorists and pedestrians fought the running 90 minute 
gun battle and before dusk closed left a scene never equaled during peace 
times in an American city.
   Streets were strewn with dead bodies and wounded participants. There were 
wrecked automobiles, discarded armament and thousands of spectators in whom 
fear, amazement, curiosity and wrath fought for supremacy.
   Death of the two bandits and their chauffeur who started the blood running 
above the Harlem River when they deliberately shot down a payroll guard was 
the signal for the end of the gunfire.
   "Everybody, when they heard the shooting, rushed to the curb or to the 
windows to get a better view," William AGG, a taxi driver who was among the 
witnesses, said today.
BANDITS DROVE SLOWLY
   "The bandits' car went slow - not more than twenty-five miles an hour. For 
men who were attempting escape, their slow speed was beyond me."
   "As it was, one bullet hit the peanut vendor behind me. Another went 
through this glass sign."
   "Here's where the fight ended," and AGG pointed to a freshly washed spot 
on the pavement.
   "The fellow in the seat of the bandit's taxi slumped out into the street 
right here. His body was there an hour. Inside were the other two bodies. The 
car was a sight."
   The automobile was peppered with gun shot.
   "Frightened?" AGG questioned, and answered his own question:
   "Nobody was frightened. They were more anxious to see it than they were to 
go into the Inwood (a theater) there."
   The theater is just five doors away from the scene of the end of the 
battle. Hundreds of women and children were visible in upstairs windows. 
Other hundreds thronged the streets for blocks.
   "I guess everybody felt safe when they saw cops on the running boards of 
the cars chasing the bandits. I know I did."
BABY GIRL IS SIXTH TO DIE
DOZEN INJURED ARE LEFT ALONG CRIMSON TRAIL
DEATH MEETS KILLERS OF TWO POLICEMEN IN PAYROLL HOLDUP
POLICE GATHER DETAILS
   Hours after the battle, police and witnesses had not entirely pieced 
together the story of what happened. To the best of their knowledge, this is 
the story of the gunfight:
   One hundred and thirty employes of the Mondoza Fur Dyeing Company (712 
East 133rd street) awaited the weekly payroll, $4,619. At 4:45 Manager Loyd 
FOMHOF arrived from the Bronx County Trust Co. Beside him was Patrolman 
Walter J. WEBB, a guard.
   Their car turned to enter the alley. The guard started to alight, Two 
bandits leaped at him. One got the satchel of money from FOMHOF. The other 
fired at WEBB, the bullet ripping through the policeman's shield, his lung 
and heart. He dropped, his hand on a trigger.
   FROMHOF (sic) rushed into the building. The bandits leaped into the car 
and speeded away.
   Mitchell FRAILL, 13, saw them speed away. He had witnessed the hold-up and 
murder. Upstairs, Frances SAMECK, phone operator called police.
   At McKinley Square the bandits meanwhile had abandoned their sedan and 
leaped into a taxicab awaiting them. The driver was Herbert HAAS, 39, of 1117 
Grant avenue.
SHOTS DROP POLICEMAN
   Motorcycle Patrolman Edwin CHURCHILL, gun drawn, streaked into view. He 
fired. The bandits returned the fire, two for one. Their first bullet 
sprawled him off the machine, and six more bullets were drilled into his 
senseless body. CHURCHILL lived four hours!
   Fireman Vincent HYDE picked up CHURCHILL's revolver, reloaded, emptied the 
gun, and in turn was shot down. Then the taxicab cruised pastthe LOPEZ car, 
bullets flying.
   Ralph B. KATZ, driving another taxicab, drove within range. A bullet 
shattered his windshield, both bullet and glass wounding him.
   By this time the bandit car was trailed by police cars, civilian cars 
loaded with police, thirty or more machines from whose running boards police 
guns spit lead.
   Patrolmen Albert WALKER, Albert MORRELL and Detective KILEY joined the 
chase in a commandeered cab, driven by William NUGENT. They were 
outdistanced.
   Another car careened through traffic to within hailing distance. The 
bandits lowered a window, and a fusillade greeted it. Jacob SIGEL driver, 
David J. LOUIS and Francis McPHILLIP, the occupants were wounded.
   Other innocent bystanders lay wounded in the trail of the cars. The 
bandits swung over into Manhattan from the Bronx, saw speeding police headed 
their way and turned. They were virually surrounded.
   As the killers' car swung into Dyckman street, a huge motor truck backed 
out of a driveway, blocking the roadway.
Police closed in. They riddled the bandit car, deliberately.
   Intact in a satchel lying in the cab they found the $4,619, "the stake" in 
the bloody battle of the Bronx.
LEGION RENEWS PLEDGE
   The American Legion today renewed its offer to mobilize 30,000 members to 
patrol the streets of the city with bayonetted rifles as newspapers combined 
in demanding decisive action to rid the metropolis of gangsters.
   "It's awful-it's terrible," said State Adjutant Commander Maurice STEMBER 
of the Legion at his Freeport, L.I. home when he heard of the wild gun battle 
through congested streets.
   He said he intended to visit City Hall and Police Headquarters and 
reiterate the Legion's offer to enlist a huge vigilante army of former 
service men as supplementary police-an offer originally outlined after the 
Harlem "baby massacre." The Legionaires can be mobilized within two hours, he 
said.
   Meanwhile plans for a great mass meeting in Central Park to demand the 
extinction of gangsters and racketeers- formulated after the Harlem 
shootings- received added impetus. Thousands were expected to gather Monday 
night to protest underworld outrages.

GAS TRAGEDY LEAVES RAMIEZ ALONE IN DAZE
HUSBAND PREPARES FOR BURIAL OF WIFE AND THREE CHILDREN
   The future is bleak for Bartholomew RAMIEZ, Portuguese laborer, who had 
who had quieted down sufficiently at King's County Hospital today to give 
thought to the burial of his wife, Marcella, 30, and their children, Vincent 
2, William 4, and Michael 6, victims of the woman's suicidal act at 349 
Hamilton avenue yesterday.
   Taken to the observation ward of the hospital after hehad seen his family 
laid out on the sidewalk in front of his home while an inhalator squad tried 
to revive the woman and the children from the effects of gas poisoning, he 
appeared sufficiently recovered to consult with his wife's parents, who live 
at 1193 East Thirty-fourth street.
   Mrs. RAMIEZ left a note to the effect that"she could stand it no longer" 
and "she had been suffering something terrible." She was soon to have another 
child and her poverty was too great to bear.
   Herding her three children into the kitchen, she locked the door and 
windows and turned on the gas jets of the stove. Mrs. Jenny NICHOLS, a 
neighbor, smelled the gas. Police and gas emergency squads arrived soon 
after. Two of the children died on the sidewalk. The mother and the child, 
Michael, died in King's County Hospital.
   RAMIEZ, employed at the Independent Salt Works, Smith and Bush streets, 
now has the task of arranging for the funerals which probably will be held 
tomorrow or Monday.

KILLERS THROW MURDERED MAN FROM TAXICAB
FINGERPRINTS IDENTIFY BOROUGH'S NEW "SPOT" VICTIM
   The Brooklyn Homicide squad had another murder on its hands today with the 
finding of the body of Leonardo DEMACO, 30, of 826 Bedford avenue. He had 
been shot through the right eye. It is believed he was dead before he was 
dumped out of a taxicab on Skillman street, between Park and Myrtle avenues 
about 7 o'clock.
   Patrolman John TARNESY, of Clymer street station, who had passed that way 
about twenty minutes before, found the body.

and witnesses heard a noise as of a falling body. An alarm was sent to police 
on post to watch for a bloodstained taxicab. DEMACO was identified by 
fingerprint records.
   DEMACO, according to Lieut. Frank GLYNN at the Clymer street station, had 
been arrested twice for felonious assault but discharged. He is believed to 
have been a beer runner "put on the spot" for muscling in on outside 
territory.

questioning.

of his home at 32-26 158th street, Flushing, yesterday, just twenty minutes 
before the arrival from Minneapolis of his sister, Miss Louis SPEAR, who came

hotel. She telephoned to him this morning and started for Flushing. Spear's 
wife, Mrs. Sarah SPEAR, heard her husband fall to the floor of the bathroom

WOMAN TAKES LIFE BY GAS
   Mrs. Dora FINKLESTEIN was found dead on the kitchen floor at her home, ??0 
Quentin road. Five jets on the gas range were wide open.
   The previous night some relatives and friends had given her a party in a 
Sheepshead Bay restaurant in honor of her fortieth birthday anniversary. She 
had been in poor health, friends said, and yesterday afternoon relatives 
called to take her out for an automobile ride.
   Her husband, Louis, was not at home and their three children were in a 
camp up-state. The relatives could not get into the house, so they persuaded 
a neighbor's boy, Samuel KESTENBAUM, of 1451 Dahill road, to climb into the 
FINKLESTEIN house through a window. The boy opened the front door for the 
relatives, who found Mrs. FINKLESTEIN's body in the kitchen.
   Dr. RICHMAN, ambulance surgeon from Coney Island Hospital and members of 
Police Emergency Squad No. 11, under Charles ROSENBERG, worked over the body
