1 Berlin. July 0. Knrl Orewman,
Germany's Jnck-the -nipper In fact,
ke'ls the only criminal in the history
of the world te be compared te Jack-Jh-Rlppcr.
according te hl attorney
hanged himself with hi necktie en a
mall nnll In the deer of hl prison cell
yetrday, n few minutes before he wa
te be taken before the Judge of the
Criminal Court. The motive of suicide
In nil probability was fenr of the gal
lows. Dr. Frey, his attorney, said
that for Heme time the prisoner had
been complaining of the severe obser
vation he was Mibjecfed te. At neon
he made use of n few minutes when un
guarded during the change of keeper
te carry out his plan.
His trial opened three days age.
Though the police firmly believe he
Wiled nt least twenty women since he
was. releared from Jail In 1017. the
parts of only eight bodies were found,
three of which were Identified. The
mJ charge ngalnn him, therefore, was the
Tortured Women In Bed
Grewmnn was often compared with
llenrl Lnndru. the French Blue
beard, Herr Frey .ild, but while
Lnndru attracted women by his smart
appearance ami geed manners and util
ized their affection finally te murder
them te obtain money, Grosemnn
was an Insignificant little man
with tern clothe, dirty beyond de
scription. Forty-te wltnews who ap
peared revealed an n'""' hlng brutality
of mind of the prlmnei. Te tht wit
reuses It Meemed the met natural tlihu
In. the world te GrnsMnann te tie women
te ft bed and torture them. When nkcd
Why she consented t" such treatment one
witness answered : ' Fer money I'll de
anything."
i i uressmnn preceeaeii te relate witn
fi'i nimeHt caimncss tne neiaim or mis atre
cieus actions, which the pen hesitates
te put en paper. He told hew lie carved
the corpses of women according te rules
learned ns u butcher. On the Judge's
table lay a piece of velvet once part of a
ttkirt of one of hli victims. When
asked whnt he wanted te de with It,
Gres-iman replied calmly: "I said te
myself just new. Tek at thm nice
fil'ece of elvet. It's a shame te threw
t away, for It would de splendidly for
a waistcoat, which I could wear as a
souvenir of the girl.' "
"Was Let Loese en the Public"
The trial did net lack exciting scenes. !
One witness threw her bunch of keys,
at Gres.mnn and barely mived his i
attorney. Anether flew nt him in full
rage because he said she and all the
Others lied. I
Gressman was tmy-stx years ew and
had been in prison twenty reur ttmra.
The Inst time he was sentenced te fif
teen years In jail for assault, and in
the words of the prosecuting attorney,
"was let loose en the public again In
He hired women te his house by
offering ceilee. bread and lard, all deli
cacies among this clan of the popula
tion during the war. The fact that his
deeds remained undiscovered wns be
cause the girls were never missed. He
dealt with the scum of the street from
the darkest part of Berlin. HI crime
never would have been dlsceve-'d had
net the last victim grenned, se 1 ud the
neighbors get suspicious and culled
police, who arrived tee late te save the
girl, but arrested the villain.
Personally Gressman was n quite
congenial mnn. His last act was a let
ter of gratitude written te his attorney.

Washington, July rt. Successful tests

and navigation, Theodere Roosevelt,
Acting Secretary of the Navy, an

The device, designed by Dr. Harvey

of water, without "heaving the lead,"
are obtained by a machine, attached
under water at th stern of the vessel,
which sounds n high-pitched note that
carries for miles. The echo is picked
up by an ear-shaped Instrument In the
bow, the depth being measured by the
time required for the return of the
