STORY GIRL TOLD
POLICE N KABER
MYSTERY REVEALED
Miss McArdle Says Grand
mother Was on Porch When
She Went to Bed.
HEARD THE SCREAMS.
Nurse Warned Her Not to Go
Into Room, Capt. Carey
Says' She Told Him.
Capt. Arthur Carey of the Homl
cldo Squad made pubtlr. to-day a part
of the story he has obtained from
Miss Marian McArdle, a prisoner tn
the Tombs nwaltli)ff extradition to
Cleveland In connection with the al
leged murder of her Mepfathtr, Daniel
Kaber. Ills estate, worth 1.500.000, Is
tied up by the murder Investigation.
The girl, her mother, Mrs. Eva
Catherine Kaber, and her grand
mother, Mrs. Mary Ilrlckcl, nro all
three under arrest now for the mur
der, which was committed two years
ago.
"The girl told me." Bald Capt
Carey, "that sho and a girl friend,
Anna Dacur, went to the movies In
Cleveland on the night of the mur
der, returning at 10 o'clock. She said
she and her friend left her grand
mother sitting on the porch when
tliey went to bed on the second floor,
where Daniel Kobcr's sick room was.
"Knber's male "nurse, Mlsa Mc
Ardle .said, was sleeping in u room
on the third floor. Mlsj Mc.Ardto
nays she was awakened about mld
V ,nlght bjt a scream and that she hur
tled to Kaber's room. The nursj was
, already there, she !ays, and he ad
vised her that sho had 'better nut i
in there.' He told her to telephone
s the police, she said, and she dIJ.
1 confirmed .this from a Cleveland de
tective who Is in Now. York on tlia
case.
"Miss McArdle denied that sh'j had
been Instructed, by some one to leave
the door open that night. If her
grandmother was on the porch at the j
tlmo the two girls retired that would j
ha rpnsmi . nolltrh fop the rrirl. tn
leave the door open. I
"The Cleveland police say there
were no murks on the door, Indicating
that the murderer eithtr found it
open or else had a key. Mrs. Kaber,
her daughter says, was at Cedar
Point that night, several miles
away."
Capt. Carey spoke of a razor
formerly belonging to Kaber which
was said to have been found in a
New York pawn shop. Ho said that
the razor was found by the Cleve
land police In the kitchen of the
Kaber home. It Is said to have borne
a Syrian Inscription which might be
translated "My Kdward" or "May
Edwards." But the razor was not
the weapon of the mtird.erer. It Is
generally agreed that this weapon
was a stiletto made by sharpening a
'flic.
When his attention was called to a
.Jesnatch saying a woman, the mother
of five children, was being questioned
In Cleveland and that her husband
with four of tho children was sup
posed to be in New York, Capt. Carey
said he had no such official knowledge,
although a Cloveland reporter had
'told him that "nn Italian woman"
was "to be" questioned.
It was said to-day that the Cleve
land authorities were taking renewed
interest In the old report that Kaber
had been subjected to sloiv poisoning
with arsenic for somo time before his
abrupt murder. If this were true. It
was suggested that thcro might be
two possible reasons for changing
from poison to tJie knife. One would
be that tho poison was acting too
slowly.
The other would be that the plan
was changed, that thcro wns fear of
tho discovery of poison, and that the
knife was used to divert susp.cion
and make the murder appoar to . be
the work of burglars.
Miss McArdle declared that her
.mother had been unkindly treated by
her stepfathor. When sho was asked
about tho alleged fake silver robbery
she admitted opening the buffet but
denied throwing tho silver about in
confusion. But sho said that was a
'week before tho murder. She said
her mother asked her to open the
buffet. Tho girl's mother has ad
vanced the theory that tho murder
was done by eome one who stole the
silverware.
Chief of Police Chrlstlanson of

expected to arrive to-day with ex-

"We need for the leadership of

whllo we must give these adven
