CRUGER MURDER GANG
GETS ANOTHER VICTIM
Girl Who Told Where Body Lay
Jumps From Apartment
Window
ATTACKED, SHE DECLARES
t
SIJW YORK. June 10.
Deeper channels of crime apparently
enened today as police, private detective
nd the District Attorney's otneo itched
Into the sordid pools which swept the pretty
chool Ctrl, lluth Cruger. to her death.
Shortly after midnight this morning.
Consuelo La Huo, a young woman who Mild
he had furnished Mrs. Grace tlumlsion
with the Information which led to the
finding of the Cruger girl's body, was found
hysterical nnd maimed, In a vacant lot be
side an apartment building at 115 West
Eightieth street
Screams brought n policeman running to
the spot Miss La Iluo vvns half-clad Her
left leg was broken In two places Sho
had Jumped from a second-r.ory window
lie's up there." she moaned Akcl what
she meant, she said: "Tho men. Two men
came and paid they had a telegram for
me. One grabbed me by tho throat and
tald 'I guoss you'll not tell any more ' I
jumped out of the dining room window
I preferred that death to tho kind they gao
Ruth Cruger
Then the young woman asked that Mm
Humlston bo notified, that tho "girl who
gave her the tip on whero Hutli Cruger s
body would be found wanted her."
Mrs. Humlston was notified. One report
Is that tho woman lawyer went to the
hospital where Miss Lr. Hue was taken, but
' was ordered from tho room by the po'lec
She Is said to hac declared she hud known
Miss La lluo for some time At the hos
pital all Information was icfuscd early to
day, and from police sources camo the sug
gestion that tho La Iluo girl's mind had
been unbalanced by reading of tho Ctugir
crime.
In addition to this gllmpso of the hand
of the white slave "ring," Mrs Humlston
asserts It Is trapping, debauching nnd mur
dering girls llko Kuth Cruger in New York
every day. strong links In tho chain of evi
dence against believed Mayers of Ruth
Cruger were forged today
A motorcycle uniform found burled with
the roped body of the high school girl under
the cellar of tho Cocchl shop was tried on
the unusually tall form of Victor Ulady. a
chauffeur held In connection with tho crime.
Although ho is 6 feet 5 Inches tall, the suit
fit him perfectly. Close questioning com
pelled Blady to admit he lied at tho Investi
gation In March In saying he was not In
Cocchi's shop tho day lluth Cruger was
murdered.
Questioned by Assistant District Attorney
Doollng, Blady admitted having been In
Cocchi's shop tho night of February 11
This Is tho samo night Cocchl Is believed
to havo let tho roped body down into tho
cellar through a trap door he cut in tho
floor of his shop and to havo started digging
tho girl's grave,
Blady svvoro ho left the shop at 9:30 that
night Ho admitted threo other men wero
there, and he gave their names to Doollng.
Blady Is catalogued as raw of Cocchi's close
friends. Ho said ho drovo Cocchl to his
home that night when ho left at u-30.
Meantime ghoulish curio hunters slipped
Into the Morgue whero Ituth Cruger's body
lay and stole a gold stickpin nnd five shell
hairpins from the little bundle of trinkets
placed besldo her body on tho slab.
At the samo time city, State and Govern
ment officials tho Italian authorities at
Rome and Bologna and brought all posslblo
Influence to bear to get Cocchl back hero to
answer tho Indictment chniglng him with
tho murder of Ruth Cruger.
Close scrutiny of the Cocchl shop re
vealed what the authorities consider un
mistakable evidence that Cocchl and prob
ably two or threo accomplices butchered
the little school girl.
In tho closet washroom, where the actual
killing Is believed to havo occurred, pieces
of tin had been newly tacked over what ap
pear to be splotches of blood. A thin coat
of fresh White paint had been applied to
other splotches on the wall Scrapings of
the stains have been oent to nnalylsts
Removal of a square of galvanized Iron
from tho floor of tho shop disclosed a new
trap door which It was necessary to cut
for tho murderer to get the girl's body
Into the basement without taking It out
doors and down tho cellar steps. Tills trap
door had been rejoined, the saw mark
puttied, tho whole lloor freshly whitewash
ed and the metal plate laid over It.
The body of Ruth Ciliger was bulled to.
day "somewhere In the country." Morbid
curiosity was given no gllmpso of the.
funeral cortege Quito alone tho father,
mother and sisters of tho murdered girl
followed her body to tho grave.

STOCKHOLM WITHOUT
AMERICAN SOCIALISTS
Delegates From U. S. in Swedish
Capital Do Not Represent
Socialist Party Here
TWO RUSSIAN CITIZENS
STOCKHOLM, June 19.
N'nt one of tho three American delegates
to the International Socialist peace con
ference was born In tho United States and
onlv ono of them Is a naturalized Ameri
can. All were born In Russln. Tho three,
who arrived hero today, are Max Ooldfarb.
labor editor of the Yiddish newspaper For
wnrd In Xevv York city; Doris Relnsteln,
of nufTnlo, nnd V. Davldovitch. nlso of
Wvv York. Relnsteln Is nnturallzrd
This was the day set for the delegates
roprpcntli!g tho United Slntes to confer
wtth the Hutch-Scandinavian committee.
Thf foregoing dispatch Is rather ml
! nding Ooldfarb is a Russian citizen but
b does not represent tho Socialist plrty
"f the United Stntes. Follow Ing the uc
eful Russian revolution, ho was called
back to Russia from N'ew York by the
lew-lsh revolutionary organization In Rus.
"la He was also nrdeied to represent
the "llund" nt Stockholm whllo on his way
t i Russia He received his credentials bv
telegraph from Petrogrnd and cnrrles no
nedcntlnls from any Amcilcan Soclnllt
organisation.
Roris Relnsteln Is nn American citizen of
Russian birth He represents tho Socialist
Lnbor party, the minor Socialist oiganlz.i
tlon of the United States. This Is not the
organization which was to have been repre
sented by Moirls Hlllqult. Victor Ilergpr
and Algernon I.ce, who havo been denied
passports by tho State Dnpnrtment. Reln
steln evidently went to Stockholm dcsplto
tho older of the Stnto Department prohibit
ing American socialists to be represented
nt Stockholm
Pavldovltch liken Iso does not represent
the Socialist party. Ho represents tho
Jewish Soelallst-Torrllorlalh-t organization,
an International body, Willi ofllces In many
countries, and which Is given representa
tion nt International Soclnllst congrexM-s
The Socialist Party of Amerh.i, there
fore, .still remains unrepresented at Stock
holm nnd will remain t-o, unless the State
Department reverses lis decision on the
passport question Tho Socialist Party of
America Is the real American Socialist or
ganization recognized bv the International
Socialist Rure.ui at tho Hague.

that It Is not sufficiently greatu to lout the

approach toward Oermany would be now
decreased by n number of kilometers.

Therefore that the Roche umhI nlno dlvl-

the Allies did not get further also proves
their fighting strength They need men
less badly than Germany, much less badly,

In a word, the Allies will need a big
