( Rateska had been in love with Anna in Roiimanla. Less thah three months ago she had come ovef from the old country, ostensibly to marry Rateska. She met other swains;' however who struck her more favorably than did her former lover, and her affection toward him cooled. They quarreled and he exposed the desperate frgjme of mind by which he was possesses, and the girl left Detroit to escape h.is wrath. .She arrived in Indiana Harbor about ten days ago. She applied to Sergeant Hughes for directions to the house of friends who lived at 136th and Deodar street. An Attract!-" GirlSergeant Hughes noted that she was an unusually comely gjrl, remarkably stylish as to dress, fop so recent an arrival from the old country, and was surprised on account of her Americanized appearance thiit she could speak no English.

Just after mass at the Roumanian church Sergeant Hughes received an excited call from somew'here in that vicinity, to send the wagon post haste to 137th and Beech where la girl had Just been murderously assaulted. He dispatched Officers Barney Genau&ansky, Murphy and Kasimir to )he scene in the auto patrol. Arrived at he church they were told of what had occurred and the direction in which the f ellow . . had escaped was indicated. The chauffeur put on full power and- the chase was rewarded after only a few blocks had been traversed, by overtaking the fu gitive. He was placed-inside the pa trol and taken to the girl who identified him as her assailant. In the mean time Dr. Sauer had been called to attend to the wounds of "Miss Milhatlan, and after rendering these services the physician sent' the' patient to the hospital. " ..'I.''"

The girl struggled madly and shrieked, and finally the astounded by-standers came to their senses and two or three of their number went to her rescue. They seized her would-be murderer, nut he menaced them with his knife and'managed to get away. It was immediately after this that the patrol swept down the street, forty miles an hour. The' crowd pointed fn the direction in which Rateska had fled and the patrol gave chase with the result heretofore related. -'-' i.
