MISSING PARTS OF HACK DEATH CORPSE FOUND
Policeman Recovers Head,Feet and Arms in Morgan Avenue Lot
Identification of the murdered person, parts of whose body have been found
from time to time in widely separated parts of the city during the past two
months, was anticipated by police to-day.
The head, forearms, feet and hands of the victim were discovered yesterday
in a lot at Ten Eck street and Morgan avenue. The remains are to be frozen at
the Kings County Morgue to-day and fingerprints will be taken by the police.
Identification may also be established through the teeth of the victim, as
these are the only parts of the body not badly decomposed.
The parts ofthe body were found yesterday by Patrolman George GAULER, of
the Herbert Street Emergency Squard and his father Gottlieb GULER, of 246
Maujer street, who had gone to the vacant lot to get some top soil for their
garden.
The mystery of the dismembered body started March 27 when a thigh was
found on the south roadway of the Williamsburg Bridge. On March 30 part of
the chest was found in a lumber yard at Varick avenue and Stagg street.
Several pieces were found in the East River at the foot of Grand street
the next day and another thigh was discovered on the Manhattan end of the
Williamsburg Bridge the same day. The pelvis was found in a vacant lot at
Metro politan avenue and Starr street,Glendale, on April 12.
All of the portions of body were wrapped in newspaper.Three separate
packages were found in the lot yesterday.Two of them contained portions of
the body,while the third contained a stained bed sheet,a tan silk shirt and a
pair of women's silk bloomers.
One of the portions of the body was wrapped in a newspaper dated April 16,
and the other in a paper dated March 26.The shirt and other articles were in
a black bag wrapped in plain wrapping paper. The shirt bore the mark of a
haberdashery store at 113 Graham avenue, but no one at the store could recall
the purchaser and police do not attach a great deal of importance to the
clothing, as it could have been thrown there by persons other than the
murderer.
Police considered it probable that the finger-prints would prove of little
value if they can be taken, as the manner in which the body was hacked and
cut, and the fact that certain portions of it are missing, indicate a woman
as the murderer and that the killing was a ''sex murder'' of the most vicious
kind.
KNAPP in Mineola Jail Awaits Trail As ''Thrill Slayer''
Philip Knox KNAPP, alleged ''thrill killer'', who deserted the Army Air
Corps because there wasn't enough excitement in flying, was arraigned before
Nassau County Judge SMITH to-day and pleaded not guilty to having murdered
Louis PANELLA,a Hempstead taxi driver,in 1925.
KNAPP, for whom a six-year search extending over several countries was
made, was returned to Mineola to-day from West Orange,N.J., where he was
captured last night.He hd been living quietly there as an humble,married
mechanic.
District Attorney Elvin N.EDWARDS told Judge SMITH that KNAPP had asked
for sufficient time before trail to get in touch with his parents, said to be
proinent in Syracuse, and to arrange for lawyer to defend him.
Judge SMITH said he had no objection to reasonable delay so that KNAPP
might retain counsel.In the meantime,he remanded him to Nassau County jail
without bail.KNAPP appeared tired and slightly nervous as he was brought to
the court handcuffed to a deputy sheriff.
KNAPP, living under the name of Allen Kingsburg KNAPP, is an army
deserter, former Cornell University student and said to be the son of a
prominent Syracuse family.
PANELLA was killed shortly after the Loeb-Leopold trail and authorities at
that time attributed the murder to a search for a thrill, although robbery
also was given as a motive when it was discovered that nearly $100 had been
taken from the dead cab driver. PANELLA was killed by a 45 calibre bullet
through the head. Two wounds were found in his body when it was discovered
under some debris on the site of old Camp Mills.
Several days elapsed before Major William N.HENSLEY, at that time
commandant at Mitchel Field, was able to determine the name of the slayer.
The taxi driver was killed shortly after pay day at the arm post and Major
HENSLEY was hampered by the fact that a number of the soldiers were absent
without leave.
BEDPOST USED IN MURDER OF DR. G. E. DEELY
Police Batter Down Door To Find Body Stabbed And Garrotted
Dr.George Edward DEELY, widely known Brooklyn nose and throat specialist,
was found brutally murdered to-day in the locked bed chambers of his
brownstone office residence at 167 Joralemon street and within two hours
police had taken into custody at Garden City a Filipino houseman, named
Genecae SIMPLICIO, discharged with another Filipino by the doctor on
Thursday.
But the Filipino's apparently frank grief at the doctor's death, and his
insistence that he quit, seeking higher wages, only added further mystery to
a murder which has shocked medical and charitable circles here.
One of the first to arrive at the doctor's house was Police Coissioner
MULROONEY, who took personal charge of the investigation, assisted by
Assistant Chief Inspector SULLIVAN and fifty police and dectectives.
Taken to the DEELY residence the Filipino told Police Commissioner
MULROONEY and District Attorney GEOGHAN he had given the doctor a weeks
notice and obtained an other job immediatel as cook in the Garden City home
of George POWERS, broker. After serving dinner he slept there last night, he
said.
Police who broke down the door when a houseman was unable to arouse the
doctor at his accustomed time, found his body, clad in pajamas and a lounging
robe sprawled on the floor.His head had been battered in with a post torn
from a corner of his antique bed and there were six stab wounds in the
doctors abdomen.The bedpost lay near the body.
Disorder in the room gave evidence of a violent struggle. Chairs were
overturned,Curtains had been pulled down from one of the windows, a small
telphone table had been knocked over and the smashed phone lay on the floor.
None of the windows was open and the door was locked and police were further
mystified when the houseman, Arthur LINDARS and his wife Nora, declared they
had heard no commotion in the house after Dr.DEELY had retired in seemingly
good spirits last midnight.
Dr.DEELY was born at Lee,Mass., and was graduated from Williams College
and the Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons.He established his office in
Brooklyn twenty years ago, and had maintained his Joralemon street
headquarters for the last nine years. Previously his office was at 132
Montague street.He was active in Catholic lay organizations and well known
among politicians.
As word of the murder spread 1,500 curious persons gathered in the street
outside, and police were compelled to order out reserves to enforce traffic
rules and keep the front ranks off the doorstep.

Her eyes red from crying and her pretty face pinched and worn from the lack

in Homicide Court on a charge of murder, felonious assault and violation of
the Sullivan law.
At noon yesterday in front of 73 Devoe street, she shot and killed Michael
RUBINO, 39, of 235 Ainslie street, who she says made her love him, tricked her
and deserted her after she had deserted her husband and her two
children.RUBINO was married and the father of six children. His wife, Rose,
fainted when she heard he had been killed.
Walking with RUBINO at the time was Henry E.WOLF, 40, of 669 Gates avenue.
He was on his way to inspect a woman's dress shop at 70 Devoe street. He was
shot in the right foot and rushed with RUBINO to Greenpoint Hospital.RUBINO
died shortly after his arrival.
Questioned at the Herbert street station house, where she was taken by
Patrolman George GRAMBERG, after he had wrested the revolver from her, by
Assistant District Attorney Hyman BARSHAY for nearly three hours, she told the
following story:
'' I went to work in a woman's dress shop owned by RUBINO, at 35 Withers
street. He told me he loved me many times. I told him I was married and had two
children. When he learned by husband pedduled bananas, he told me to kill my
husband, get rid of the children and come with him''.
''On April 10 after much coaxing I went with him to Chicago.We returned to
the city about May 4. He got me a furnished room in Third avenue. Then I knew
he didn't want me any more. He only came to see me twice. I became desperate
and decided to go home to my husband and children. This was last Friday. When I
saw how my children had suffered because of my neglect I decided to kill the
man who was to blame. I got a revolver and then I put on mourning for him,
wearing a heavy veil so he wouldn't recognize me. I was unable to find him until
to-day and when I saw him I shot him.''
Besides the cartridges found in the revolver, eight more were found in a
small black bag she carried.There were also found in the bag a razor,
pocketknife and a can opener. She was asked what she intended doing with
them but she wouldn't answer.

KILLER CHARGES WIFE PAID $300 TO SLAY MATE
Describes Murder to Police and Falls Senseless
Charles ODETE, a vagrant, 26 years old, ended the mystery of Brooklyn's
''torso'' murder this afternoon.
Grilled seventy-two hours, he confessed he killed Andrew ZUBITSKY,
second husband of Mrs.Anna Lena ZUBITSKY, a former speakeasy
proprietor, of 83 Bartlett street, at her suggestion, and hacked the body
with a meat cleaver to cover up his crime.
The pieces, tied upin newspapers and string, had turned up, one by one,
in various parts ofthe borough since March 27, when ZUBITSKY legs were
found on the Williamsburgh Bridge.
The confession came while ODETE was being driven to the office of
District Attorney GEOGHAN for further questioning. He relented, turned
to police and said, '' I committed this job,'' and promised further details
if he were taking back to Stagg street station.
There he described Mrs.ZUBITZKY's alleged offer of $300 if he would kill
her husband. He and a friend, indentified only as ''Tom''. waylayed
ZUBITZKY at Morgan avenue and Ten Eyck street, he said, felled the
victim with a brick and dragged him into a vacant lot.
''Tom'' put a rope around his neck and I cut him up with a meat cleaver.
Then we wrapped him up, Tom had papers and string.''
Twenty minutes later ODETE had been taken to the scene. But he
broke down while he re-enacted the butchery, and pointed to Police
Captain CAREY and Assistant District Attorneys KOPFF and BECKER
he screamed; ''I did it alone. I did it alone.Here's where I did it.''
Then OBETE collapsed.
Following his stoe, ODETE was placed in a police car and asked
to direct police over the route he followed in distributing the parts of
the victim's body after he had committed the murder. Meanwhile Mrs.
ZUBITZKY and OBETE's cousin, Frank RAVINS, were detained at the
Stagg street station.
ODETE told Capt.CAREY that he and a friend whose name he refused
to give were sent by Mrs.ZUBITZKY to a speakeasy at Grand street
and Morgan avenue, on the evening of Tuesday, March 24. where they
lured ZUBITZKY out into the street, and walked him along Morgan
avenue toward Ten Eyck street. Coming to a dark corner of a vacant
lot, they hit ZUBITZKY on the head with a blunt instrument, and then
ODETE, according to police, proceeded to hack the body with a
butcher's knife he brought with him from their Bartlett street home.
The blood-stained underwear, which were found near the parts of the body
on the vacant lot, were used by ODETE to wipe the blood from his hands.
Assistant District Attorney Bernard BECKER aided Capt.Carey in
questioning the self-confessed murderer.
The murdered victim is said to have been a World War veteran, who
served in the Polish army, and had accumulated a bank account totaling
$1,100, of which Mrs.ZUBITZKY's had unsuccessfully tried to draw out
$419 several weeks ago.

Girl, Nine, Dies With Smile; Father Quits Jail to See Her
All Efforts toSve Life of Little Patient Fail
Giuseppi CUSIMANO,32, was back in his cell at Hart's Island
to-day, where he is serving six months for possession of a gun,
unaware that his visit to his 9-year old daughter Marion which
cheered her up so much on Saturday, had no lasting effect and
that she died last night at 7 o'clock.He will not be told about her
death, unless arrangements can be made for him to attend the funeral.
The youngster, whose beautiful dark eyes and olive skinned face
proclaimed her Italian descent, was taken to St.Mary's Hospital four
weeks ago from the CUSIMANO home at 139 Troutman street,
suffering from osteomelitis, a disease of the bones. She continued
to fail despite the efforts of the doctors and nurses to save her.
Her mother Rose, 30, was at her bedside whenever the hospital
authorities permitted it. But little Marion wanted her daddy. Mrs.
CUSIMANO was reluctant to tell the whereabouts of her husband.
On Saturday night little Marion was pining so much for her
father that hospital attaches told the mother it would mean life or
death for the little girl and it was then that Mrs.CUSIMANO
revealed the plight of her husband.
Dr.A.W. PORIER communicated with Capt.Charles E. HEMLEY,
in charge of the Telegraph Bureau at Police Headquarters. There
follower a telephone conference between Capt.HEMLEY and
Wardens Joseph A.McCANN and Michael C.BREEN.
At 8 P.M. Saturday,a taxicab stopped in front of the hospital.
Giuseppi CUSIMANO,32, hurried up the steps flanked on either
side by keepers.They stood back as CUSIMANO, tears in his eyes
reached the bedside of his little girl.
''Daddy, Daddy, you are here at last''. Marion cried. ''You are so
nice,Daddy. I love you so,Daddy Don't go away''.
After an hour CUSIMANO explained to his daughter in fatherly
fashion that he had to go back to ''work'' or lose his job and then
''I won't be able to buy that nice new dress for you when you get better.''
And he left to go back to his cell, but he promised Marion he would
come to see her again on his ''day off'', which he said would be this week.
There was a prompt and noticeable improvement in Marion's
condition the doctors say.She slept well Saturday night for the first time
in ten nights.She was fresh,bright-eyed and happy when she awoke
yesterday.The turn for the better was only temporary however, and
she began to fail again yesterday afternoon.
Marion was one of seven children, the others being, James,10;
Carmella,6; Josphine,4; Salvatore,2;and the twins,Mary and Joseph,
each four months.

MISSING GIRL BODY FOUND ON STATEN ISLAND
The body of Lillian PREHN, who has been missing since
March 29 from her home at 87 State street,West New Brighton,S.I.,
was found badly decomposed in a thicket off Hyland boulevard,
between Aspinwall street and Finley avenue,Tottenville, yesterday
by Patrick MOORE, of 186 Lincoln place,Brooklyn. Police believe
the young woman had been murdered.
MOORE, on a Sunday outing, was passing through the thicket
with a friend when he saw the feet protruding from some underbrush,
he told police.He notified them immediately and they removed the
body to the Richmond County morgue in New Springville as soon
as Medical Examiner Mandell JACOBI had made a preliminary
examination.An autopsy will be held today.
The young woman was identified through a blue crepe de chine
dress by her mother,Mrs.Mary PREHN. Her body has not been viewed
yet by relatives.Mrs.PREHN told police her daughter was a nurse
employed in the home of a private family in West New Brighton
and that when last seen at home, she was leaving to go to work.
It was found that she left her employer's home at 6 P.M.March 29,
but did not arrive home.The missing Person's Bureau was
notified April 3.
Police learned Miss PREHN has associated with men stationed at
Coast Guard Base 2, Stapleton, and detectives were sent there to
questioned them to learn more of her activities on the day of her
disappearance. Police based the murder theory on jewelry found
on Miss PREHN'S bod, making robbery improbable as a motive
for killing.It was thought that she was either killed elsewhere and
brought to the thicket for disposal, or that she was lured there and killed.
The police investigation is being conducted by Inspector Van WAGNER,
in charge of Staten Island detectives.The Homicide Squad at Manhattan
Police Headquarters was notified immediately after the finding of the
body and three of its members were sent to co-operate with the
Staten Island police in the investigation.

SHOOTS WIFE AND KILLS SELF BECAUSE PAY WAS SMALL
Although her condition is still critical, it was said at Harbor
Hospital to-day that there was hope for Mrs.Santa PANDOLINO,
39, of 1849 Benson avenue, who was shot four times yesterday by
her husband,Salvatore, 46, who then fired his last bullet into his
right temple killing himself.
It was reported by police of the Bath Beach station that PANDOLINO
who had been acting queerly recently, fired from a bedroom window
of his home at his wife as she was in the garden fifteen feet away.
The shooting, according to Acting Lieut.Frank BALS and Detective
Frank GROTTANO, followed a quarrel.
For more than twenty years, Mrs.PANDOLINO told the police, her
husband had done little or no work. She worked to support him and
their three children, Samuel,20; Marie, 17;and Virginia 22. In later
years the children helped and she was able to save enough to
purchase their own home, a brownstone building, which she
deeded to her husband.
Yesterday afternoon PANDOLINO berated his wife because she
had brought home only $8 for her week's work as dressmaker. She
sought to explain that she had worked only two days, but he would
not listen.He complained there were obligations to be paid on the
property and he needed more money.
She tired of his abuse and went into the garden. Samuel followed
her.A few moments later the shooting occurred. Samuel, who was
a few feet from his mother, looked up in time to see his father
kill himself.

MAN'S BODY IS FOUND IN BAY; Note Spurs Hunt for Another
Ten hours after a note saying ''my body will be found
by the big door'' was discovered lying on Pier 39 at the
foot of Coffey street, the body of a man, which at first
appeared to answer the description given in the note,
was found floating in the waters of the bay about 1,000
feet off the foot of Bay Ridge avenue by a tugboat captain.
Police determined, however, that the man had been dead
for at least ten days, while the supposed suicide note was
written about midnight last night.
The note, written in pencil, was identified by William
HARLETT, Jr., of 193 Manhattan street, as having been
written by his father, a steam fitter employed at the yards
of the New York Dock Company.
The note as given out by the police, read;
''My body will be found at the big door. God bless my wife.
My wife is a good woman.(signed)B.H..'' A postscript said;
''I fear I have consumption.'' and gave what apparently was
the time of the suicide as 12:45 P.M. and described the man
as ''forty years old, five feet eight inches.''
BULLOCK turned the note over to Detective Carl LAWRENCE,
of Hamilton avenue station, who said other employes told him
the handwriting resembled that of a man employed on the pier.
LAWRENCE went to the man's home,found he had not re-
turned since leaving for work in the morning, and corroborated
the hand writing by the missing man's son.A search of the pier
failed to reveal any articles of clothing or evidence to indicate
whether anyone had jumped into the bay.
The body found in the water was that of a man about 40
years old,five feet ten inches,weighing 170 pounds and with
black hair.The man wore a blue shirt, green tie,white shirt,
black shoes and socks and had a gold ring on his left
hand with the initials ''H.J.''on it.He also wore a button
of the fratern Order of Eagles.
Police reported that the man's head was swollen and the
body bore marks of violence.It was found by Capt.CHRISTENSON
of the tug Rockaway belonging to the U.S.engineers dredging
the harbor.
Any connection between the note and the body was destroyed
when police determined that the dead man had been in the
water at least ten days.Ther was blood on the hands and head.
No fingerprints can be taken,it was said, because of the de-
composed condition of the body.
Capt.John J.RYAN and detectives of the Homicide squad who
examined the body said it was probable that the man had been
killed and thrown into the water as the stomach was not
expanded as much as it would have been had the man been drowned.
DERANGED COP ENDS LIFE IN RUNNING FIGHT
Wife, Doctor and Police Give Chase While Shots Terrorize Street.
A deranged policeman ran amuck in the Yorkville section today,
terrorizing pedestrians with his service revolver before he finally
committed suicide by shooting himself in the head.
The policeman, Eugene McMAHON, who had been suffering
from a nervous disorder, had gone to the office of Dr.John J.
LOUGHLIN, police surgeon,237 E.Sixty-eighth street, accompanied
by his wife,Anna,and her sister,Miss Mary McDERMOTT.
Suddenly he jumped up, drew his revolver,and announced;
''I am going to commit suicide.''
He dodged out of the office, with the two women,Dr.LOUGHLIN
and three other policemen who had been waiting for the
physician in pursuit. At Second avenue,McMAHON fired three
shots at himself but all went wild. Policeman Timothy DEGMAN,
of the East 67th street station,joined the chase at 69th street and
Second avenue.McMAHON stopped shoet,turned and fired three
shots at DEGMAN without hitting him.DEGMAN fired two shots
over McMAHON's head.
The fleeing policeman reloaded his revolver while pedestrians
rushed into hallways for safety and motorists hid on the floor of
their cars. As the deranged officer ran up 69th street he noticed
Paul RIKER, a uniformed doorman.He fired two shots at RIKER,
who escaped injury.
Finally, at Third avenue and 69th street, he stopped in front
of the New York Foundling Hospital, fired a bullet into his
head and dropped dead.
MAN & TWO BOYS FATALLY BURNED IN BLAZES, TANK BLAST
A man and two boys are dead of burns and four others are
injured to-day as the result of a suspicious fire at 113 Christopher
avenue, and a gasoline explosion in a vacant lot at Coney Island.
One of the victims,Max JACOBS, 43, of 1635 Union street, was
charged with arson two hours brfore he died in Lutheran Hospital.
Clothes blazing, he had run from the burning tenement on Christopher
avenue into the arms of Patrolman Harold HERMAN. HERMAN smothered
the flames with his rubber coat, sent JACOBS, an iron moulder,
to the hospital, rang in an alarm and investigated among neighbors.
The arson charge was made when he learned the tenement was
unoccupied, and was informed by Fire Marshal BROPHY he had
found evidences the blaze had been set deliberately.The tenement
was owned by Morris GOODWIN of 319 Vermount avenue.
The fire swept the buildings upper floor and made necessary
a second alarm. Deputy Fire Chief John O'HANLON took charge
and ordered 400 families out of the adjoining houses for safety
before the blaze was controlled.
JACOBS admitted before he died that he knew GOODMAN, owner
of the building. The other two fire victims are;
Carmine MERSCOVETERO,9, of 2433 Hubbard street.
Emanuel CIRCIO, 9, of 2424 East Seventh street.
They are members of the Junior Rangers, an organization of
boys with headquarters in a cave they had dug at Sheepshead Bay.
Wet grounds kept the Rangers off their ballfield, a lot at Avenue X
and East Seventh street yesterday afternoon and they had retired
to the cave at the north end.Two of the engineering minds decided
heat would be advisable, and they built a fire in the doorway using
an empty gasoline drum for a backstop.
A few moments later the neighborhood was rocked by an
explosion.The gas drum had burst,spraying gasoline on the Rangers.
And before two passersby were able to beat out the flames
MERSCOVETERO was so badly burned he died shortly before
midnight in Coney Island Hospital.CIRCIO was sent there also.
He lingered until this morning.
Others burned were Fred ZARZARI,9, of 2421 Hubbard street;
Vincent MERENDO, 14, of 2424 East Seventh street and
Albert MESIANO,40, of 1228 Fortieth street, and Charles
RIZZP, 31, of 83 Ocean court,who went to the rescue.
The two men were burned on the hands as they beat the boy's
flaming clothes.The splattering gasoline reached dry grass near
the cave entrance and started a fire, but it was put out without
trouble.
The Rangers were organized this spring.Their members average
twelve years.

Patrolman Paul McMICHAEL.
These officers said they had considerable difficulty in obtaining
much information from Mrs.MACKEY but that, through her hysteria
she told them her husband had been suffering from a nervous
breakdown and that he had been acting strangely for several weeks.
She told them that several times he had remarked almost
incoherently.Mrs.MACKEY also said, that MACKEY owned two
revolvers, for each of which he had a permit.Because of his
uncertain nervous condition, police quoted her as saying, she
recently hid the revolvers in a drawer in her dresser. She said she
had no idea where he obtained the weapon he used to kill himself.
Police said this was of a cheap,American manufacture. There were
only two cartridges in it.MACKEY used only one ending his life.
Coroner A.W.JONES ordered the body taken to Knowell's
morgue in Port Washington and recorded the death as suicide.
Mr MACKEY had been in the employ of the Queens Engineering
Department for many years-virtually since the department was started.
He was regared as well-to-do.His home was something of a show
place and he employed, besides household servants, a chauffeur to
drive for him and to care for his four automobiles, all of expensive make.
Mr.MACKEY was an assistant engineer in the division of
construction of the sewer bureau and was in charge of the sewer
district composed of Woodside,Elmhurst and Corona. His department
had charge of the actual building of sewers,and it was pointed out
that in the district which he supervised there never had been any
hint of any irregularity such as marked certain other sections
of the Queens sewer system in the days of the sewer scandal.
Mr.MACKEY sewer building was never questioned.

ACTION HINTS NEW CLUES TO STARR'S DEATH
District Attorney Elvin N.EDWARDS, investigating the murder
of 25-year-old Starr FAITHFUL, whose body washed ashore at
Long Beach Monday, late to-day ordered that cremation of
the dead girl's remains to be postponed.
The Disttict Attorney gave no reason for his order, but indicated
that a further examination of the body will be made on the basis
of new evidence uncovered to-day.
The body had been removed from Rockville Centre to a
crematory just outside Jamaica, and the girl's relatives had
assembled for a brief funeral service when the order was issued.
Conflicting stories were heard at the office of District Attorney
EDWARDS to-day concerning the nature of the information
contained in the thirty-eight pages of diary left by the murder
victim. While Mr.EDWARDS was closeted with Elizabeth
FAITHFULL, sister of Starr, two detectives who claimed to
have seen the diary were questioned concerning its contents.
One said that the book, which mysteriously recovered ''some
where in Manhattan'' after the girl's stepfather,Stanley E.Faithfull
had repeatedly asserted he destroyed it, revealed that Starr's
life had been a happy one. The other detective said there were
several entries indicating depression.
Mr EDWARDS, before going into conference with Elizabeth
FAITHFULL, told newspapermen that he would ''have nothing to
give out until late this afternoon, if then''.

SHAFT DEATH UNDER INQUIRY
At the request of the medical examiner's office, detectives of
the Herbert street station are making an investigation into the
death of Rocco PACE, 30, of 71 Will street,Astoria. The investigation
was begun by Detective Robert BARON, of the Greenpoint station, and
yesterday turned over to Detective Sylvester CLAUER of the Herbert
street station.
PACE, employed by the McGovern Construction Company of Long
Island City, was working on Snaft 13A of the Catskill Water System
and met with an accident which resulted in his death.There are stories
to the effect that before he died he gasped ''He said he would kill me.''
According to the report so far,PACE had thrown a switch in the
tunnel,600 feet below the street, at Mecker avenue and Humboldt
street, at 9:30 o'clock on the night of May 28 for an electrical
engine pulling four cars, said to be operated by Pasquale CONTI,
of 4246 Seventy-eighth street,Queens, when he slipped and fell
and the engine wheels passed over his left side.He was rushed
to St.Catharine's Hospital where he died.
MAN TIES WRENCH TO BODY, DROWNS
The determination of William HARTELL, steamfitter, of 193
Menahan street, to commit suicide, of which police learned
Tuesday in a note he left on Pier 39, East River, near where
he was employed, was found fulfilled to-day.
A dockworker found HARTELL'S body in the water beside
the pier at the foot of Coffey street. He had tied a heavy wrench
about his waist before leaping in. It was still attached. His son,
William HARTELL, Jr., identified the body at Kings County Morgue.
CABBY REVEALS DRINKING TOUR OF LONG ISLAND
The body of Starr FAITHFULL was cremated at Fresh Pond
Crematory in Middle Villiage,Queens, at 4 o'clock this afternoon,
on receipt of a written order from District Attorney EDWARDS.
No one was permitted to witness the cremation. It was said
the ashes would be turned over to William MACKEN, under-
taker, of Rockville Centre, who would give them to the FAITHFULL
family.
The fantastic story of Starr FAITHFULL, 25-year-old Greenwich
Villiage girl whose days on earth were as mysterious and weird
as the circumstances of her death, was slowly pieced together
for the benefit of a Nassau County Grand Jury at Mineola today.
While witness detailed their stories to the jurors, a new angle
to the case came to light when a taxicab driver, who said he took
Miss FAITHFULL from the heart of Manhattan to Flushing last
Thursday afternoon, was questioned by assistants of District
Attorney Elvin N.EDWARDS.
The girl was intoxicated when she entered the cab, the
chauffeur said, and she bought two bottles of whisky during
the journey.She drank some of this liquor and gave him some,
he said. She wanted to go to a certain house in Flushing, he
said, but couldn't find it, so he let her out at a drug store.The
store was at Thirty-third avenue and 163rd street.
District Attorney EDWARDS proceeded with his Grand Jury
session with some fifteen witnesses and with the silk-bound
diary which STARR kept over a period of three or four years.
It was indicated that indictments will be returned against
two unidentified men, to be called ''John Doe'' and ''Richard Roe.''
The District Attorney proceeded on the theory he has held since
he started the investigation that two men murdered STARR be-
cause they feared her.These men, he believed,killed the attractive
girl because she knew something that threatened their security.
Among the witnesses who testified brfore the jurors were
Frank W.WYMAN,of Boston, father of the dead girl;Mr and Mrs.
Stanley E.FAITHFULL, her stepfather and mother, and Elizabeth
Tucker FAITHFULL,19 year old sister.
The taxicab driver,Si BOCKMAN of the Bronx, and Traffic
Patrolman BELLOCHI, who helped the girl into the cab in front
of the Chanin Building on Forty-second street last Thursday, were
also to testify.
BELLOCHI and employes of the Channin Building told authorities
that the girl,smartly dressed but obviously under the influence of
liquor, entered the lobby of the building in company with an
older woman- a woman known as a ''character'' to them. The
woman asked someone take care of the girl and said she was sick.
Employes of the building called Patrolman BELLOCHI, who
suggested calling an ambulance.The girl objected vociferously
to this and then BELLOCHI put her in the cab. BELLOCHI and
building employes have identified STARR'S body as that of
the girl they saw. They said, however, that she wore different clothes
Thursday than she had on **missing a few last lines here**
director of the Cunard lines, was one of the grand jury witnesses.
He told reporters that he had known STARR ''only in a business way''
in spite of the fact that the girl used his name as an excuse when
she was away from home late at night.
Entries from STARR's diary, tending to show that she was
extremely fickle in her love affairs and had considered sucide
on occasions, were ready for the jurors.
Dr.Otto SCHULZ, who performed the autopsy on Miss FAITHFULL'S
body, was the first witness and repeated his story in substance
to reporters. He said that his examination of the body led him
to believe that STARR had been drowned in shallow water, and that
she had been roughly handled.It is his assumption that two men
held her head under water until she was dead. Sand was found in
the windpipe and in the trachea, he said. She had been dead about
forty-eight hours when the body was found on the beach, and there
was no trace of alchol or drugs in her system.
ARREST ORDER COMES TOO LATE; Check Forger Found Suicide
While the excitement was at its height yesterday, after Anthony
GUZAS, 40, of 103-19 117th street, had fired three bullets into
his heart in his coat factory at 87 Varet street, a young man pushed
his way through the crowd and went to the top floor of the four-story
building.
''Where is Anthony GUZAS?'' he asked of one of the detectives.
He was asked why he was so anxious to see him.
''I am connected with a bank and I came to place him under arrest,''
he stated.
''Well, there's your man,'' said one of the detectives, pointing to
GUZAS body which lay partly beneath a pressing table.
''Too bad,'' said the bank representative,and hurried away.
It was later said that GUZAS had forged the name of Frank URBAN,
his partner, to four checks and cashed them at a Williamsburg bank.

BATTERED BODY OF MAN FOUND NEAR BAYSIDE
The blood-stained battered body of a man identified as
Abraham ROSENBERG, 45, of 1821 Loring place, The Bronx,
was found lying on the embankment near Black Stump road east of
Fresh Meadow road, Bayside, early to-day and police, after finding
his wife's car three blocks away less than an hour later stained
with blood, were in pursuit of three men who are believed to have
taken the man for a ride.
ROSENBERG'S skull was fractured and he had a bullet wound
in his head.His body was still warm when it was discovered by
William KELLER, who lives on Black Stump road, as he was on
his way to work.
Three-quarters of an hour later, Frederick SANDMEIER of
47-18 212th street,Bayside, found a sedan car owned by Mrs.
Esther ROSENBERG, wife of the murdered man, abandoned
at 211th street and Forty-seventh avenue, Bayside.The up-
holstery of the car was stained with blood and several large
pieces of horsehair were torn from the upholstery, indicating
that a struggle had taken place during the ride from New York.
ROSENBERG'S right hand was clutching several strands
of hair when the body was found.

men jump out of the car and run away just before the car was

BRIDGE CRASH KILLS WOMAN, INJURES FOUR
One woman was dead while four other persons, two of them
women, were critically injured in Cumberland and Jewish hospitals
to-day, the result of a head-on collision between a private car and
a bus belonging to the Brooklyn Bus Corporation, a subsidiary
of the B.M.T., on the main roadway of the Manhattan Bridge. All
but one of the victims of the accident was school teachers.
Another accident, resulting from the first, occurred a few
minutes later when another automobile, commandeered by
a patrolman, started to rush one of the injured women to the
Brooklyn end of the bridge and collided with a Baltimore
and Ohio bus.
The injured;
- The dead woman was Florence A.FRANK, 28, a teacher at
Public school 226, Fiftieth street and Twenty-third avenue, who
lived at 1434 Fifty-seventh street. She died from the effect of a
fractured skull and two fractured shoulders in Cumberland hospital.

cut and bruised in the second collision, but were able to go home
after treatment.
All three women were riding in KENNER'S car, a sedan, and
were said to be returning to Brooklyn from a dinner in Manhattan.
KENNER, according to witnesses, was driving on the wrong

swing over in time to avoid a collision. The accident occured
nearer the Manhattan end of the bridge and detectives of

An unidentified man's body, apparently in the water several days,
was washed ashore at the foot of West Thirty-third street, Coney
Island, early to-day. It was taken out by police of the Coney Island
station and removed to Kings County Morgue.
The victim was described as about 40 years old, five feet eight inches

Prospect Park station of the B.M.T, Orler BENDIXON, 23, of 2690
Kenmore place, employed by General Railway Signal Co., was
killed last night and traffic on the line was tied up thirty-five minutes.
The train's motorman was Frederick SPENCER, of 880 East Fifteenth
street, according to police, but he was not held.
MYSTERY SHROUDS MURDERED MAN
Up until this morning no one had been found by the police who can
definitely identify the man who was murdered early yesterday at his
home 90-37 Old South road, Woodhaven, as Joseph MARINO.
The case took on an added entanglement when police disclosed
that the woman who was supposed to be his wife and was in the
Cumberland Hospital convalescing after the birth of a baby, was
Mrs.Rose CARNO. Police also believe this woman was living
with MARINO at the Old South road address, and that the latter
met his death as a love reprisal.
QUEENS KILLING OFFERS NO NEW CLUE TO POLICE
Detectives under Inspector John J.GALLAGHER sought more
clues to-day on the murder of Abe ROSENBERG, Bronx business
man, whose body was found Tuesday morning in Black Stump road,
between Bayside and Flushing, with a bullet in the brain and the
skull crushed.
Examination of ROSENBERG's body found not far from his expensive
and bloodstain automobile showed he had struggled with his assailants,
tearing hair from the head of one of them.Believing he might have been
shot as part of a beer war.Queens police have set a dragnet extending
out of the county and into Long Island and upper New York. They are
thought to have questioned several prominent Broadway and Bronx
racketeers already, although no statement has been given out.

Cool Breezes Bring Relief to Sweltering Brooklynites
Fair and much cooler weather today brought welcome relief to
Brooklynites who have sweltered under the extreme heat of the
past three days, during which temperature and humidity records
have been broken right and left.
Not in many years have the beaches in the vicinity of the city
seen such crowds on a June Sunday. All transit lines, boats and
trains were jammed to capacity early yesterday morning and con-
tinued to carry capacity crowds most of the day.Police estimated
that 700,000 persons visited Coney Island during the day, and
officials at the station house finally lost count of the number of
stray children brought in for care and attention until their parents
arrived to claim them.
A rough surf and a strong undertow made bathing conditions
rather unsafe at Rockaway and the lifeguards reported seventy-
five rescues.
The following drownings were listed by the police in and around Brooklyn.
- Sameul COHN, 22, drowned at Perrinville,N.J.
- Amadino De FILIPO, 36, 1022 Lancaster avenue, drowned while
swimming at the foot of Main street, Barren Island.
- John ESANESK, a watchman at Alley Pond Park,Bayside; drowned
while swimming in the pond.
- Charele GORDON, 32, 21 St.Andrew's place, went down while
bathing in Sand's Bay, Canarsie.
- Theodore HOWARD, 21, of 138 Ludlow street, Manhattan, collapsed
from the effects of the heat at Bedford avenue and North Seventh st,
at 7 o'clock last night. He was treated by Ambulance Surgeon FERALDO,
of St.Catharine's Hospital and went home.
- Mrs.Mary SHAWBURN, 42, of 97 North Fourth street, had alighted
from a crosstown trolley car at North First street and Bedford ave, at
9:30 last night, she fell to the pavement.An ambulance surgeon from
St.Catharine's Hospital ascribed her condition to heat prostration
and after treatment, took her home.
- Delphine PERRY, 19, of 2859 Cortland street, collapsed at West
Nineteenth street and Surf avenue.She was taken home.
- Leona SABIN, 4, of 578 Greene avenue, was overcome at her home
and was treated by an ambulance surgeon.
- Mrs.Eva ZELINSKY, 58, of 2954 West First street, was overcome at
her home and required the attention of an ambulance surgeon.

WOMAN KILLS WHEN FAMILY IS THREATENED
Frightened by threats to kill her family and herself, Mrs.Jennie
MUZIO, 37, of 721 Union street, shot and killed her brother-in-law
late last night at the door of her home, according to police.
Joseph COLASINO, 37, of 621 President street, had come to her
home to get his common law wife, Mille, who had left him because
of his abuse,police said. His wife had just been released from
Creedmore Insane Institution, and was not able to endure living
with him yet.
Mrs.MUZIO said she had invited Mrs.COLASINO to live with
her until she became stronger and that COLASINO came shortly
before midnight last night and demanded his wife. She said Mrs.
COLASINO refused to go with him and he began to argue and
finally to threaten, and her husband, Frank MUZIO handed her a
.32 calibre revolver.
Then she fired five shots into his body, police said, and gave
the gun back to MUZIO, who threw it under a bed. When Detectives
Jerry ENGLISH and Caesar BONNANO, of the Bergen street station
arrived, she gave them a .38-calibre revolver, but they searched
the house and found the other.
Mrs.MUZIO was locked up and charged with killing COLASINO, and
her husband was arrested, charged with violating the Sullivan Law.
She said she was sorry she had shot him, but she was afraid he
had a gun or a knife and was going to carry out his threats.
Mrs.MUZIO is the mother of two children by a former marriage,
while COLASINO has seven, two by a former marriage and five
by COLASINO. She had been in the Creedmore Insane Insitution
for a year, it was said.
