WMtHIIWWWWt pgison flrjy knife FOR INCURABLES Rev. Schmidt Says He Planned Huge Job oi Killing DCESNOTFEAR ELECTRIC CHAIR Trial to Be Set For Next Month In sanity Can Be Schmidt's Only De fense, Says Attorney For Prisoner. "I don't see why there is so much red tape about this. I'm ready this minute to go to the electric chair. Any body who thinks that this life is worth while is mistaken. I have faced death many times and would face the chair without a quiver of a muscle." So Rev. Hans Schmidt, the con fessed murderer of Anna Aumuller, told his counsel, Alphonse G. Koelble, when the latter visited him in the Tombs in New York. He declared that not only was ho alone responsible for the killing of the girl he loved, but he had been plan ning to do away with the hopelessly insane, the permanently crippled and diseased Incurables by poison or the knife. The book of- certificates issued by the board of health had already con vinced Inspector Faurot and his men working on the case that Schmidt had hit upon what he believed an easy way of getting his victims under ground without exciting suspicion. Koelble said he was sure Schmidt's cool admission of his plan to put folks out of their misery for their own good was further admission of his in sanity. "Schmidt Bhowed spirit for the first time," said Lawyer Koelble. "He was mad and very excited. He was dis turbed because he said the newspapers were dragging in innocent people and touching them with scandal." "Schmidt," continued the lawyer, "said he did not want to answer the questions of the district attorney but simply say 'I did It,' meaning that he killed Anna Aumuller. "Then he made this astonishing statement when I asked him about the death certificates: 'I was planning to do away with a knife or by poison a number of people for whom life wasn't worth while. What's the use of living If life Is worthlsss? The quieter ono goes the better for them. I believe that the next world Is better for the hopelessly Insane, the hope lessly crippled and the hopelessly diseased.' "He strenuously denied that Muret, the fake dentist, is his brother or a cousin or any relation whatever. 'I have known him only ten months and not a day longer,' he said. He said that he went to Muret one day about some plates and the dentist told him he was crazy because he spoke about St. Elizabeth whereupon they had a quarrel." A cable dispatch from Aschaeffen burg, Germany, says that an invesil gation there indicates that Ernst A. Muret, under arrest in New York as a counterfeiter and an accomplice of Hans Schmidt, slayer cf Anna Aumul ler, Is Adolph Mueller of Mainz, Ger many, and a cousin of Schmidt. Sciimidt, the priest, and Muret, the doctor, says the dispatch, occupied themselves a great deal in Germany several years ago with hypnotism and spiritualistic seances. They had a quarrel and were bitter enemies for a time, but were reconciled before r'ather Schmidt left for America. The priest has said that St. Eliza- the choicest productions of for- betu ordained mm una ordered mm to kill the rectory girl who loved him. Schmidt will be brought to trial for the girl's murder next month before Judge Foster. His defense will be In sanity because that is the "only pos sible defense" according to his lawyer. "I want to get a trustworthy alienist of the highest standing to examine Schmidt," said his lawyer. "I appeal to such a man to come forward anil give his services without charge." Father Evers, the Tombs chaplain, said he is getting more convinced very minute that Schmidt was never luthorlzed to assume priestly func ;lons, but believes that the real "Hans Schmidt," the priest, is dead and that the murderer of Anna Aumuller Is a person who perhaps stole the dead priest's credentials. The police discovered a fourth flat which Schmidt used in his crime operations. It was at 124 West Eighty-fourth street and Mrs. Hander, who rented' it to Schmidt, was worry ing because she had forgot to tell In spector Faurot that wiien Schmidt vame to this Ktt he sometimes drought with him a two-year-old boy.
