DEFY SCIENCE IN RULING ON MIXED BABIES

Parents Decide to Keep Children Learned Men Say Were ‘Traded ’ in Hospital

Bu t nited Press CHICAGO. July 25.—The Bam-berger-Watkins mixed babies case was settled today on the word of family physicians and a mother's Instinct to recognize her own child. Ignoring the verdict of a jury of scientists who decided that the Bamberger baby really was the Watkins baby and that the infants had been switched at Englewood hospital, the mothers, fathers and a half dozen physicians met secretly at the Keystone hospital. In less time than it had taken to assemble the scientists, not to mention the hours of examinations and arguments, the mothers and doctors decided that each mother had her own child. They based their settlement on

$125,000 OOOTLEG GASOLINE SUIT IS SETTLED BY OGDEN AND BOBBIT FOR $25,000 0 Agreement Reached With Chicago Men for Payment of $20,000 Cash and $5,000 Within One Year. PROSECUTIONS ARE ‘NOT DEFINITE’ St. 4 te Officials Refuse to Talk About Taking Criminal Action; ‘There Will Be Some,’ Says Attorney-General. Attorney-General James M. Ogden and State Auditor Archie Bobbitt today “setlled” the $125,000 bootleg gasoline suit, launched by the state, for $25,000, only $20,000 of which was paid in cash and the $5,00 to be paid in one year. They settled with attorneys for the Chicago men who admitted Ogden said, that they thought they were “getting by” without gasoline tax payments, through bribes to state employes. In the background, looms the possibility for these same men to get back the Hammond refinery, put into receivership of the state, and again “do business at the old stand.”

But Ogden, Bobbitt and attorneys making the settlement didn’t want to talk about that. Neither did they want to say anything definite about any criminal prosecutions. • There will be some,’* was all that Ogden would say. Whether they will be against Bruce E. Cooper, resigned field auditor in the gasoline tax division of Bobbitt’s office, or Louis H. Joers, Michigan City, alleged "tool” of the Chicago interests, could not be learned. Cooper Called ‘Receiver* Cooper has been labeled as the receiver of payments over a tenmonth period V rough Joers. He denies it and Joers refused to talk here Thursday. At any rate. Poole Harrison and J. T. Conner, who came here with their attorneys, B. C. Jenkins and James H. Parker, both of Gary, got a good settlement today. The attorneys alone were present when final decision was drafted with Ogden, Bobbitt and Leland K. Fishback. state gasoline tax collector. When Bobbitt first went to collect from the Knickerbocker Refinery Company of Hammond, the Comier-Poole company with whom settlement was made today. Bobbitt said this company alone owed the state SIOO,OOO. He charged they had shipped 234 tank cars of gasoline labeled "distillate” and thus beat the 4-cent tax on 1.872.000 gallons. Thrown in Receivership The company was thrown into receivership and Frank Greenwald. Gary, made receiver. Greenwald recommended the refinery at Hammond be closed forever. Now he is to receive the $20,000 cash for the state and collect another $5,000 a year from Sept. 1. and the company gets the plant back. Joers. after a SIO,OOO settlement for the Dunes and Revalla compa- j nies. was permitted to continue op- ; erating filling stations at South Bend. Clarence P. Fate, securities Investigator for Secretary of State Otto G. Fifield of Lake county, took over the Joers’ bootleg stations in! Lake and Porter counties. When Bobbitt left the reparations meeting ttis morning, he explained that some of the gasoline he first j had listed had been sold in Illinois and that hir first figures were ; $75,000 in back tax and $25,000 in , fines for the Knickerbocker com- ! pany. "This was reduced to a disputed amount of $31,000 today.” he ex- j plained. "Then we settled for $25,000.” Claim Debt $17,000 It was reported that the Knicker- I bocker attorneys clam .ed they owed only $17,000. Jenkins, whsn asked regarding future plans for his clients' operation in Indiana, said: "I would rather nothing be said about that." As soon as the settlement was made. Bobbitt rushed to Fifield’s office and went into conference with j the secret:try of state When first reports of the bootleg gasoline business were brought to the attorney-general's office.

Even Watkins, who first charged the babies were mixed, was won over at the conference. “We’re satisfied,” said Watkins, the unemployed traffic manager. “We've got our baby and the Bambergers have theirs.

THREE DIE FOR BANKMURDER Officer’s Slayers Calmly March to Gallows. Bu United pres* KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 25.—A gallows trap was sprung in the execution chamber of the county jail here today and three men, convicted of murdering a patrolman during a bank robbery, fell simultaneously through a yard-square opening to their death. The trap, which hurled Tony (Lollypop) Mangiaracina, Cal Nasello and John Messino to a common fate at the end of three ropes, was released at 6:05 this morning. The crime attracted nation-wide attention because the Republican national convention was in session in Kansas City. The murdered patrolman was James H. (Happy) Smith, traffic director near the Home Trust Company, which was held up. The doomed men, whose arms were lashed behind them immediately after the reading of the death warrant in their cells, were lined up single file on the trap. Three black squares were painted on the gallows floor. The men stood on these, close together. Father Frank G. McGowan gave them their last religious consolation. Death masks were adjusted quickly. At a signal, five electrical buttons were pressed in another room and the trap fell automatically. The mei. walked erectly to their death. All were smiling. Nasello and Mangiaracina asked that Messino make their last state ment. ‘Good-by folks, we have no hard feelings,” Messino spoke distinctly. The hoods were adjusted and the men said their good-bys. “Gocd-oy gang.” each called just oefore the trap fell. HOLD BIKE MARATHON Six Teams of Boy Riders on 100Hour Race on East Side.

Jr., breathed a sigh of relief that “all this publicity and to do is over.” Her husband is a brick layer. “There never was any doubt in my mind that the babies were in the right homes,” she said. “A motner can always recognize her own child.” On her certainty and the shapes of the babies’ heads, the physicians based their final verdict. The scientists based their decision upon minute examination of the infants’ skin, hair, eyes, anatomical makeup, blood count and reflexes. Baby Watkins egg-shaped cranium was convincing evidence, the physicians said, that no mistake had been made. It was natural, they pointed out, that Baby Watkins temporarily should have a head of

‘MIRACLE RAIN’ NECESSARY TO RESCUECROPS State Must Have 24-Hour Steady Downpour, Says Weather Man. Steady downpour of from twentyfour to thirty-six hours, a. midsummer rarity in the middlewest, would >e necessary to save Indiana’s growing crops, chiefly pastures and corn, J. H. Armington, senior meteor- : ologist at the United States weather bureau here declared today. Predicted thundershowers for certain areas of Indiana tonight and Saturday will bring no noticeable relief from drought, he said. There are no indications of other rainfall than from occasional showers. Eight-Inch Deficiency Rainfall deficiency at present is almost eight inches, throughout the state, while in extremely dry sections along the Ohio river, and at the northern boundary of the state, it is much more than that figure. Temperatures climbed steadily today, the thermometer registering 93 degrees at 1 this afternoon. Hope was diminishing today in southern Indiana for revival of field crops. Honey Yield Slashed The honey yield in the oiate, normally about 8,000,000 pounds, is expected tc be reduced to 1,000,000 pounds, because bees have been unable to live and produce with i scarcity of green herbage on parched ground. All rivers and lakes in the state are low, Armington said, although still above the all-time low records. North central Indiana, while suffering intensely from heat and lack of rain, has fared better than other s'ectors Cooler weather may follow showers Saturday, Armington said.

Stuart and Market streets in San Francisco. It was near this intersection that the bombing occurred. Pointing out the spot on his postcard diagram, Krumesc said he was sitting on a box in front of a store on Stuart street, watching the parade pass. He sew three men whom he insisted wero Mexicans, loitering across the street. In a moment, he said, they disappeared, hurrying off around the cornel and up Market street. Simultaneously, he saw a suitcase, standing on the curb opposite him, where the "Mexicans” had been loitering, he said. A

SHOVEL-MOUTH FCISSILSFOUND Scooped Food Like Dredge, Says Noted Explorer. Bv United Press PEIPING China, July 25.—The discovery of fossil remains of animals with jaws so large that they scooped up their food like dredges, was announced here today by Dr. Roy Chapman Andrews, leader of an exploration expedition in Mongolia. The animals were trapped 3,000,000 years ago in the treacherous marshes of a huge inland sea and were in a perfect state of preservation, Dr. Andrews said. They belonged to the mastodon family and are known to science as platybelodons or shovel-jawed elephants. The platybelodons had jaws extending for more than five feet and roamed the marsh lands shoveling up their food. Dr. Andrews said thirty specimens of the platybelodons were found in Mongolia, including babies and adults. He said the expedition would remain in Mongolia until October. Dr. Andrews was here today on a brief visit to Peiping and planned to rejoin the expedition immediately. TRAIN ON RIFLE RANGE Reserve Officers Will Engage in Saber Drills Saturday. One hundred sixth infantry reserve officers of the One hundred sixty-seventh brigade, in trainnig this week and next at Ft. Benjamin Harrison, were on the rifle range today. Saturday they will engage in saber drill, tactical walks and inspection. Promotion of Second Lieutenant James W. Hollingsworth, French Lick, to a first lieutenantcy, was announced today by Colonel Thomas B. Coulter, Vincennes, brigade commander.

A moment later he related, the explosion occurred and the street was littered with torn bodies and debris. Fearing the police would arrest him in connection with the blast, Krumesc made no mention of what he had seen, he said. In 1929, Robert G. Tbring, a newspaper writer, wrote of being on the spot in San Francisc-j the day the bombing occurred. Thring said three men, suspected ajid named at the time of the bombing, deposited the suitcase on the street corner. One was a Spaniard or Mexican and another an Italian, while all three.

How it happened that the wrong tags apparently were placed on the infants before they were taken from the hospital, was explained as probably cue to a lass of the original pieces of tape while the babies were being bathed by nurses.

RELATIVES SEE WOMANSTARVE Look on as Victim Slowly Dies of Food Lack. Bv United Press CHICAGO, July 25.—Two men who, police charge, watched disinterestedly at the bedside of a woman relative while she slowly starved to death, were held today for examination at the psychopathic ward of the county hospital. Police broke through the door of Jacob Pfeiffer’s home Thursday night and found Miss Dina Schreimer, 55, gasping for breath in a bundle of rags on a bed. Pfeiffer, 78, and Joseph Shea, 37, sat near by, silent, morose figures. Miss Schreimer was taken to the county hospital, where she died early today, apparently a victim, Dr. S. O. Myerson said, of slow starvation. “She weighed only thirty-eight pounds,” Dr. Myerson said. “A woman of her height and age should weigh about 150 pounds.” Miss Schreimer was an aunt of Shea and sister-in-law of Pfeiffer. They admitted they had watched her die, but said she refused to take food. She had been without food for months, they said. Pfeiffer was released several months ago from the asylum for the insane at Kankakee, police said. TURK’S AGE IS DENIED Insurance Company Actuary Says 156 Years Impossible.

Zaro, says Arthur Hunter, chief actuary of the New York Life Insurance Company, can’t be 156 because there is no evidence that anybody has ever lived that long. Zaro, he says, is certainly not over 100 and probably not more than 90.

Questioned closely as to the reason for his fourteen years of silence, Krumesc said he did not know until about July 10 of this year that any one ever had been punished for the bombing.

KING IN STRICKEN QUAKE DISTRICT; AIDS RELIEF FOR ITALY’S MILLION HOMELESS Starts Motor Tour of Region to Lead Work; Hopes of Fearful Populace Raised by Royal Visitor. CHECK FAILS TO LOWER DEATH TOLL Inhabitants of Several Towns Are Ordered to Be Removed for Safety; Feeding and Clothes Big Immediate Problem. BY THOMAS B. MORGAN United Press Staff Correspondent BENEVENTO, Italy, July 25.—Italy, led by the king in person and the pope through a special envoy, worked swiftly today to relieve the sufferings of a million homeless in the regions devastated by Wednesday’s earthquake. The king arrived by train at Rov:chetta-San Antonio, headquarters of the relief work, and started immediately on an automobile tour of the stricken country. Hopes of the distracted populace were raised immediately by the royal presence, and the peasants and townfolk saw in him the tangible evidence that the government would feed and cloth them, rebuild their homes, bury the dead and care for the injured.

DETROIT HONORS VICECRUSADER Thousands Pass Before Bier of Slain Attorney. Br United Press ETROIT, July 25.—Undaunted by the heat, thousands of men and women today stood in line to pass the flower covered bier of Gerald E. Buckley, the radio man who fought the battles of the poor and needy and known to most of them only as a voice. All night long, police kept the long double line moving, as people came to pay tribute to Jerry Buckley. It was estimated 50,000 had passed his coffin at noon today. Meantime, police continued their hunt for the three gunmen who riddled Buckley’s body as he sat in a hotel lobby Wednesday morning. Search also went forward for the woman who is believed to have lured Buckley to the hotel lobby by means of a telephone call. Buckley was killed shortly after he broadcasted results of the election that ousted Mayor Charles Bowles, whom he opposed. The police department, goaded into full action by a criticising public and press, pressed forward in raids on speakeasies, saloons, gambling houses and vice dives. More than 150 were arrested in raids Thursday night and today. Today handbooks were closed, and most of the city’s thousands of speakeasies and saloons were dark. John Gillespie, center of many a political fight, and chief lieutenant of Mayor Charles Bowles in the recent recall election, today resigned as commissioner of public works.

TWO CENTS

The appalling toll of dead and injured has in no way reduced, as communications were almost completely restored. The estimate of 3,700 dead still stood, and the government’s official tabulation, rising slowly, neared the 2,000 mark. The number of injured was many thousands. The morale of the entire region, shattered by widespread death and appalling destruction, was further depressed by slight earth tremors Thursday and the continuance of heat and violent winds which the peasants describe as “earthquake weather.” Condition of the houses still standing in Lacedonia and Aquilonia is so dangerous that authorities today ordered complete evacuation of those localities by the survivors. The province of Benevento also suffered heavily in loss of life, though probably to a lesser extent than Avellino. The lightest casualty list will be found in the province of Naples. Rumblings still are being heard at Zungoli, and the collapse of several houses in the slight shocks of Thursday intensified the terror of the still-dazed survivors. Feeding Problem Pressing The problem of feeding the survivors is pressing. At Montecalvo this correspondent found the entire living population congregated in the public squares, hungrily awaiting the government rations expected from Benevento. “We want bread,” is the first cry of these people at the approach of an automobile or truck over the rough, broken roads from the provincial capital. Provisions began arriving at Montecalvo and other destroyed towns Thursday evening.

Melfi Gets Relief BY EDWARD A. STORER United Press Stiff Correspondent (Copyright. 3930. by United Press) MELFI, Italy, July 25—Relief for the city of Melfi, three-fourths of which was reduced to ruins in Wednesday night's earthquake tragedy, came today with the arrival of trucks and workers bringing provisions and clothing. The death list as Melfi and in surrounding towns and villages continues to creep up as reports filter in from the aiore inaccessible localities, but all estimates of lives lost and property damage are approximate. The four physicians of Melfi, called from their beds by the catastophe, have become heroes to the survivors who watched them work through; the frightful night. Before outside help arrived they had extricated forty bodies from the ruins and had assisted scores of survivors from the wreckage. Descriptive of the fate of many families, Tory Famolo, a peasant who lived tor five years in New York and who speaks excellent English, told me he owed his life to an impulse. Hurricane Takes Toll Bv United Press TREVISO, Italy July 25. The Montello and Montebelluna zones of northern Italy resembled a battlefield today from the ravages of a hurricane adding to the already great devastated areas of the country. Twenty-seven persons were known dead on latest reports from relief workers who set to work immediately after the hurricane swept over the country Thursday morning. Hundreds of others were injured, and homes and buildings lay scattered over the countryside. The hurricane struck in the midst of preparations here to join in relief work for southern Italy, which was laid waste by earthquakes early Wednesday, and forced this entire section to convert its money, food and medical supplies to its own use. Santa and Eurosia, two hamlets in the district, had 300 houses completely destroyed between them, while many hundreds of other buildings, chiefly farmhouses, werf damaged in outlying region* where the fierce wdnds raged.
