To Be Offered
For GirPs Slayer
Swann Urges Board of Esti?
mate to Authorize Cash
Offer to Help Solve the
Hoxie Murder Mystery
Like Brooklyn Murders
Crime Resembles Killing of
Two Women Year Ago;
Pair of Suspects Freed
As a result of a conference in the
office of District Attorney Swann yes?
terday held in an effort to coordinate
all the forces of the city in hunting
down the murderer of aeventecn-year
o!d Reihm Constance Hoxie in her
homo at 72 West Kignty-ninth Street,
it is expected that ? reward of $5,000
will be offered to-day for information
leading to the captur-i of the criminal.
Two suspects PU?jtioned at Police
Headquarters yesterday convinced the
authorities that they were blameless
and were later released.
It developed ??L the meeting in the
District Attorney's office that the cir?
cumstances surrounding t Sie present
crime were icentical almost in every
respect with two others that took place
in Brooklyn about a year ago. and it is
lie belie:'' of the police that the same
man committed ttie three.
Letter Brings Reward Offer
Thb suggestion of a reward was em?
bodied in a letter sent yesterday by
!"? District Attorney to the Board of
estimate and Apportionment, in which
lie asked that the Police Commissioner
bo authorized to offer $f>.000 i'or the ap?
prehension of the murderer of Miss
Iloxie.
Present at the conference were Cap
is'n Arthur Carey, head of the honu
c'Jo bureau; Captain Tnomas F.Walsh,
heed of the Fourth Detective District;
Oetecttves Thomas Conklin and John
A. Morrell, of the West 100th Streit
Station; Dr. Otto H. Schultz, medical
? ?-tar.' to the District Attorney, and
resistant District Attorneys Alfred .1,
'ail'y, Benedict D. Dinecn and JohnF,
Joyce.
In his letter to the Board of Estimate
Mr. Swann said:
''In view of the unusual and atrocious
character of the crime, I strongly
recommend that the board appropriate
$5,000 to be offered as a reward for
nformation that will lead to the con?
viction of the person guilty of the
murder in accordance with section 305
of the Greater New York Charter.
"The circumstances justify immedi?
ate action because of the fact that
(.very day that passes will make the
work of the Poiice Department more
lifficuit in apprehending the murderer."
(t is believed the board will comply
th the suggestion by taking a few
? linutes' time during its session on the
? ansit problem to-day.
"This is one o? the most heinous
nu - i ver ci mmitted in this county,"
. !(1< il Mr. Swann, "and I shall offer
very resource of this off.ee to aid the
olice in finding the murderer."
It was recalled that the present
i isc liad ali 1 ne earmarks of the mur
;. -rs of Marie Elizabeth Riddel and
Mrs. May Sutherland, in Brooklyn, ir
Januarj 1919. In both these case;
the victims had been struck on the
lead and no trace of any weapon lefi
by the criminal. In each instance, too
; was pointed out that the left glovt
;" th.' victim had been taken away.
The police, however, will not admil
hat any portion of the girl's clothing
vas taken by the Iloxie murderer
?here is a strong belief, however, that
I] <?? same man murdered the Hoxie girl
Detectives will make a carefu
search to-day of tailor shops, haber
riasherics and laundries in the neigh?
borhood in the hope of picking \ij
-ome e'ew, thinking it probable thai
he clothing of the murderer migh
have been spotted with blood and tha
?\c. might have taken it to a tailo;
or laundry for cleaning.
Two Suspects Released
A ma nresembling the descriptior

committed was taken to police head

This man, actor.ling to Captain Carey
formerly roomed in the Hoxie home
leaving there three months ago. If

Ho said he knew nothing of the mur?
der and told the police he was at work
all day Monday, the day of the crime.
After checking: up the man's state?
ments Carey expressed the belief that
he is not the man wanted. Another
man questioned earlier in the day was
also released.
The dead girl's stepmother is ex?
pected from New Orleans to-day. The
body of Miss Hoxio is still being held
at the Morgue. Later in the week, it
I was said, it will be taken to Hartford,
Conn., for burial in the. family plot
there next to the girl's mother.

Policeman Kills
Man Who Fires at
Him Five Times
Patrolman Walton, of Jer?
sey City, Slightly Wound?
ed by Stranger's First Bul?
let ; Think Assailant Crazy
A man not yet identified, shot five
times last nicht at Patrolman James
Walton, wounding him once slightly,
and then was shot and killed by Wal?
ton, in front of the Seventh Street
Police Station in Jersey City. The
dead man was evidently a Pole. His
actions indicated insanity.
Walton is an auto patrol driver and
was explaining a mechanism of tha
station automobile to Patrolman
Daniel Sullivan, who was to relievo
him for the night, when the stranger
approached Walton and inquired:
"What for the policeman stop me at
the ferry? What for the policeman
stop me?"
"Come right in and tell tho lieuten?
ant about it," said Walton, putting his
hand on the inquirer's shoulder.
The supposed Pole stepped backward,
drew an automatic pistol from his.hip
pocket and fired. The bullet made a
! flesh wound in Walton's left leg above
i the knee. His assailant, backing away,
? pulled unsuccessfully on the trigger
of the automatic for the second shot.
The pistol jammed.
From his left hip pocket, the man
then pulled a five-chambered "Amer?
ican* revolver, made at Worcester,
Mass., and continued firing until Wal?
ton got. his glove on? and sent a bullet
into the stranger's breast over the
heart. Sullivan and reserves carried |
him into the station.
He was dead when an ambulance ar- '
rived. A charge of murder was entered
against Walton. Two small jieces of
a Polish newspaper were found in tho
dead man's pocket. One piece shows a
picture of a review of Polish cavalry
at Poznan and the other a picture of
a typewriter made in Chicago.
The dead man was about thirty-five
years old. five feet seven, smooth-faced
and black haired. He wore a dark
overcoat and suit, a dark soft hat and
russet shoes. He had $9.45 in his j
pocket. A nickel and five pennies were j
wrapped separately in pieces of paper, j
Army Bill 'Joker' Repeals
Limit on Peace Strength ;
WASHINGTON. Feb. 4.?In passing !
tho armv appropriation bill the Sen- i
ate repealed the ?imitation of the na- j
tional defense act, which fixed the ?
peace-time strength of the army at j
approximately 170,000 officers and men. j
it developed to-day during a hearing ;
before the House Military Committee, j
Secretary Baker said the repeal left
',he War Department free to recruit the
army to 300,000 men, but added that
"no one hope- to nuvko that increase."
Representative Anthony, Republican,
of Kansas, declared the repeal had
passed tho Senate "unnoticed." and
asked why the department supported
the proposal. The secretary said Con?
gress had provided pay for an army of
240,000 men until July and that to' re?
tain that force u was regarded wise to
eliminate possible conflicting legis?
lation.
The secretary reiterated his op?
position to a provision in the Senate
reorganization bill creating an under?
secretary of war with specific duties.
"The secretary ought to be boss of the
shop.'' he said, adding that this would
not he possible if an "independent of- i
ficial" was set up in the department
who was not responsible to the !
secretary.

3 More Held in
$225,000 Army
Robbery Plot
Seventeen Now Under Bail
and Another ?s Sought as
New $500,000 Scheme Is
Found at the Base Here
$30 Clerk Balked Thieves
Edward Kline Said to Have
Resisted $30,000 Bribe
Offer by the Conspirators
Three more men were arrested yes
terday in connection with the at?
tempted theft Tuesday night of $225,
000 worth of army goods from the :
Army Supply Baso in Brooklyn. This
makes a total of seventeen men caught i
so far in the dragnet arranged by the
government officials. They are seek?
ing one more man.
The accused civilians, of \vhich there
were ten, were arraigned before Fed?
eral Commissioner McCabe and held
under $5,000 bail each for a further
examination February 11. The seven
i army men implicated in the affair
were taken to the army base guard?
house, where they face courtniartial |
proceedings.
The three men arrested yesterday
were Lawrence Puppulo, twenty-two
years old, of 643 Lorimer Street, Brook?
lyn, a checker, declared by government
officials to have arranged for the dis?
posal of the stolen property; Arthur
Moaghcr, of Woodcliffe, N. J., a truck
dispatcher at tho base, thirty years old,
and Robert Aaronson, a checker, of 630
Broadway, Brooklyn.
As a result of the investigation grow?
ing out of the attempted robbery, it
was stated by the authorities that they
were in the track of another plot at
the base that would involve consider?
ably more than 5500,000. They expect
tha present disclosures will frighten
the scemers to cover.
It was learned that the exposure of
the conspiracy to steal the government ?
property came about through the re- I
sistance of a $30 cierk, in the shipping
department at the base, to a $30,000
bribe. While Major Joseph J. McCon- j
ville, head of the base, declined to give
out the name of this clerk, it is said
to he Edward Kline, who has been de- |
fained as a material witness against j
the accused.
Permits for the removal of good? ?
from the yard must he obtained from ;
Shipping Superintendent Isidor New- !
man, Kline's superior. It is alleged I
that last Thursday one of the check- I
ers arrested approached Kline and
said: "Do you want to make $30,000?"
"Show it to me," Kline is said to ]
have replied.
The checker then is alleged to have
said: "No man ever ?rot rich yet by be?
ing strictly honest. There's no danger
in this. We've got influence behind us.
All you've got to do is to get the per?
mit for the shipment by five motor
trucks to Camp Merritt of 20.000 shirts
and 20.000 officers' riding gloves. We
have forged the requisition ana the;
colonel has passed it. There's $30,000 i
in it for you if you get the permits for
us to get out of the base."
Kline reponed the plot to Newman, j
who took it up with Major McConville. j
Under tho hitter's instructions Kline I
and Newman went through with the i
whole affair,'while the major arranged'
the trap for the schemers, resulting in !
their arrest by army base police in- j
spectors and city police, as they were .
uni' ading the goods in a warehouse at i
152 West 127th Street. j
Tho army men arrested were ail i
chauffeurs of the trucks, and it is tho
general belief that these men were not i
directly concerned in the plot, but were I
acting under instructions.
The prosecution of the civilian I
prisoners is in the hands of United ]
States District Attorney Leroy W. j
Ross. Mr. Ross said yesterday that I
the men arrested profess to be ignorant j
of the plot to appropriate the govern- ,
ment clothing. He says ho knows the !
names of the men who were to have ?
bought the goods, but that they would '
not be disclosed for the present. When ?
the men were asked why they took !
the loads to the warehouse, they said !
that they were told to do so by a man
they met at the West Forty-second
Street ferry, who represented himself
as coming from the army base. The
authorities are looking for this man

6 A Revolutionist, I
Ask No Clemency,'
Gitlow Tells Jury
Alleged Anarchist, in 'Dec?
laration of Faith,' Says
Life Is Devoted to Prin
ripies of His Belief
Benjamin Gitlow, former Socialist
Assemblyman, on trial for criminal
anarchy before Justice Weeks in the
Criminal Courts Building, made a de?
claration of faith to the jury trying him
vebtcrday. Referring to the manifesto
"of the Left Wing of the Socialist
party, printed ?n "The Revolutionary
Age" and on the basis of which he was
indicated, Gitlow said:
"I wish you to realize that I be?
lieve in these principles. I will fight
for these principles. My life is de?
voted to them. I ask no clemency.
Regardless of your verdict, I maintain
these principles are correct."
Justice Weeks permitted Gitlow Ho
take the stand and address the jury,
warning him that he had no right '0
make any statement not based on the
evidence.
"I admit that in the eyes of present
day society 1 am a revolutionary," Git?
low went on. Justice Weeks interrupt?
ing:
"You are not: permitted to give your
views and beliefs."
"I will try to make an impersonal
argument,' 'the d?fendant said. "Now
in the United States, all our institu?
tions, bnnks, factories and mine.-; are
operated for private advantage. Sup?
pose Joh?i D. Rockefeller, with all his
gold, went to the Sahara desert. Di
you think he could get for himself
the comforts of life? He could look at
hi-; rfold. but he could not buy himself
a drink."
Gitlow launched into a discussion of
world politics and the war, which ho
said was capitalistic, when Justice
Weeks again cautioned him to speak
only of things contained in the evi?
dence,
"The European war ?bowed plainly
the failure of capitalism," Gitlow sa;d
later. Justice Weeks interrupted again.
Tliis time Clarence S. Harrow, counsel
for Gitlow, declared.
"He has the right to explain the
meaning of the manifes'o."
"He cannot explain the meaning, be?
cause he is not subjecting himself to
cross-examination," was the court's
response.
Next Gitlow attempted f? discussion
of Soviet Russia, Justice Weeks again
cautioning:
"You are attempting to state condi?
tions in Russia, concerning whicn there
is absolutely no testimony in the ease.
. . . I will not ailow you to continue
discussing conditions in Russia."
"In this democratic country," Gitlow
continued anew, 'thousands of men are
in jail, suffering tortures and"
Again the court interrupted.
"Then that is all I have to say," con?
cluded the defendant.
Then Harrow began summing up in
his client's behaif. Alexander I.
Rorke, Assistant District Attorney,
closed for the prosecution late in the
afternoon. Court adjourned until to?
day, when Justice Weeks will charge
the jury.
Smith Saves 2
Baff Slayers
Waiting to Die
Sentences of Joseph Cohen
and Frank Ferrara Are
Commuted From Death
to Life Imprisonment
Last Move in Long Case
Shooting of Poultry Man
Was Result of Plot; Many
Convictions for Crime
The final chapter in the long story of
the Baff case waa written yesterday,
when Joseph Cohen and Frank Ferrara
were saved from the electric chair by
Governor Smith, who commuted their
death sentences to life imprisonment.
Both men were convicted of tho mur?
der of Barnet Baff, the West Washing?
ton Market poultry dealer, Ferrara in
April. 1916, and Cohen in July, 1917.
I Ferrara had received thirteen respites
of his death sentence and Cohen seven
in one of the longest drawn out legal
battles in the history of New York.
Ferrara's sentence was commuted by
; Governor Smith on the recommendation
of Attorney General Newton, who said
that Ferrara had rendered service to
the state. In tho case of Cohen the
GoVernor acted on the recommendation
of Judge Mclntyre and from a consid?
eration of the fact that the Court of
Appeals had not been unanimous in af?
firming the conviction of the central
figure in the case. In announcing the
I commutation of tho sentence of Cohen
Governor Smith explained that he had
I no doubt of the guilt of Cohen, but
I that he believed the ends of justice
! would be served by life imprisonment
I of the convicted men.
Last Move in Murder Case
It is believed that this will bo the
j last move in one of -Vthe most extraor
? dinary murder cases in the history
| of New York City, one which had
I its roots in the business jealousies
! aroused by the success of Barnet Baff,
1 the "poultry king," and which had its
beginning on Thanksgiving Eve, 1914,
when Baff, summoned from his booth
in the West Washington Market, was
shot down from behind by two gunmen,
who escaped in an automobile.
In February, 1916, there came the
first clue to the solution of the mys?
tery that surrounded the murder, when
Frank Ferrara, who drove the murder
car, und Giuseppe Arichiello, who was
alleged to have tired the fatal shots,
were arrested and indicted. Arichiello
pleaded guilty to the murder, and re
enacted for tho benefit of the prosecu-'
tion his part in the crime. Both were
convicted and received death sentences.
The law did not rest there. An?
tonio Cardinale, who had been sus?
pected of complicity between the gun?
men who slew Baff and the men
"higher up" who plotted the murder,
had fled to Italy immediately after the
murder and had joined the Italian
army. In pite of a determined reist
ance put up by Cardinale, his extradi?
tion was obtained and he returned to
turn state's evidence.
Several Arrests Made
It was almost, entirely bacause of
Cardinale's testimony that early in
January, 1917, Joseph Cohen, his
brother Jacob. David Jacobs, Abraham
Graff and Moses Rosenstein, all former
business rivals of Baff. were arrested,
charged with the conspiracy of murder.
Of these, Rosenstein turned state's evi?
dence and pleaded guilty to manslaugh?
ter.
The trial centered largely around the
testimony of Cardinale, and brought
to light a conspiracy against the life
of Baff that had existed for more than
a year before he had been shot down
and that had failed of fruition in sev?
eral attempts previous to Thanksgiv?
ing Eve, 1914; On July 27. 1917, Joseph
I ohen was convicted of murder in the
first degree, and Abraham Graff, who
pave the signal for the fatal shots,
waa convicted of manslaughter in the
first degree. Jacob Cohen and David
Jacobs were acquitted. Joseph Cohen
'ater received a death sentence and
Ci raff from ten to twenty years.
In December, 1918. Arichiella, who
had spent about eighteen months in
the death house, was allowed to change.
his plea of guilty to morder in the
first degree to guilty of attempted
murder in the first degree and sentence
was suspended. His freedom he owed
largely to ?he testimony of Cardinale,
who had insisted that the confessed
slayer had not been implicated in the
murder.
Not once in the four years that have
elapsed since the murder has the
identity of the two men who actually
did the slaying been revealed.
Governor Smith granted a second re?
spite to James Cassidy, Charles F. Mc?
Laughlin and Joseph Useloff, who were
tc die on February 9, until the week
of February 23, the time set for the
execution of Joseph Milano, the fourth
member of the quartet convicted of
the murder of Otto Fiala, an I. R. T.
Vckct agent, on November 14, 1918, in
ni attempted robbery.

fers From Thrombosis
The first public announcement that
Francis Lynde Stetson, former law
partner of Grover Cleveland and
former president of the State Bar
Association, has been ill since De?
cember, 1918, and is now confined to
I his residence at 4 East Seventy-fourth
: Street, suffering from thrombosis,
; involving a partial paralysis, was made
i yesterday in some legal documents
filed in the Supremo Court. Dr.
Charlea E. Quimby, of 278 West
! Eighty-sixth Street, for many years
; physician to Mr. Stetson, furnished the
: information.
Th? proceeding in which the health
of Mr. Stetson was a factor was an
application of William Pierson Hamil?
ton, of J. P. Morgan & Co., as trustee
of the estate of Alfred L. Loom is, for
permission to take from vaults of the
Lincoln Safe Deposit Company, a
$100,000 New York City bond, the In?
come from which Mr. Loomis left to
his daughter Mrs. Adeline E. Prince.
Mr. Hamilton explained that Mr.
Stetson is co-trustee, and asked the
court to take out the bond for the pur?
pose of examination as to its time for
maturity, without the necessity of Mr.
Stetson, as co-trustee, being present.
Mr. Stetson is seventy-three years
old and a widower. Two and a half
years ago he adopted Misa Margery H.
Lee, of Germantown, Pa., as his
j daughter and heir. Miss Lee, who was
! twenty-three years old at the time, was
j the daughter of an Episcopal clergyman
j and for many years a friend of Mr.
and Mrs. Stetson.
