DOPE PEDDLER
HELD TO CLEAR
TITLOIITSTERT
Gessel, in N. Y., Says He Sold
Morphine to Film Aotress in
Case and That Bing Member
Killed Director.
New York, March 20.—Confessing
that he supplied morphine at $150 an
ounce to a prominent motion picture
actress who has been mentioned in
the mysterious murder of William D.
Taylor in Los Angeles, Anthony Ges
sel, alias "Scarface" was arrested
Sunday while peddling drugs in the
heart of the city.
Gessel insisted in an emphatic man
ner that Taylor was slain by a mem
ber of a Pacific coast drug- ring. His
actions lead the police to believe that
he may know considerable concern
ing the details of the slaying of the
film director.
Gessel is also said to have told the
police that in the last few months he
has supplied opium to society leaders
and others sufficient to supply a thou
sand “hop parties."
The prisoner Is accused of being the
chief representative of a drug selling
band at the head of which are sev
eral wealthy men. These men higher
up are known to the police but evi
dence of their trade is so closely cov
ered. that it would be almost impos
sible to get a conviction if an arrest
were made on the flimsy evidence at
hand.
Detectives Riley and Moffett, or the
narcotic squad, said that they had
Gessel under surveillance several
weeks. Sunday, they charge, he sold
them a toy of opium for $5 at the
corner of 47th and Broadway.
Dr. Charleton Simon, after exam
ining Gessel, said:
"I believe the arrest of Gessel
to be one of the most important
ever made by the narcotic squad
of New York city. The detectives
who brought nbout the arrest of
this1 man had to use all their wits
before they succeeded in getting
him to sell them a quantity of
the drug. Gessel mixed with the
best people and for that reason
was Wary.”
"Did Gessel say anything to yon re
garding the Taylor murder?” Dr.
Simon was asked.
"He did,” was the reply. "He said
that he believed Taylor was murdered
by someone in the drug ring in Cali
fornia because the film director had
interfered with the sale of drugs to
a certain actress."
“Did he name the actress?”
“He did. She is one of the leading
figures of the screen," the commis
sioner replied.
While Dr. Simon said that the pris
oner had given the name in the pres
ence of witnesses the possible results
of the revelation are so great that
specific mention of the name is with
held pending police Investigation.
Gessel. according to the police, said
the drug was ordered at frequent in
tervals and was forwarded to the act
ress by parcel post. The price charged
was $150 an ounce, and was in pro
portion to the risk involved, Gessel is
said to have explained.
Gessel has been a drug addict since
he was 15 years old, it was said. The
police said that they had little hope
of forcing the prisoner to divulge the
names of his moneyed backers but do
hope he will “come through" with the
-Taylor story.

'PEBFECT VENUS'
III Pill DEITH
0. H. Larsen, Student, Cheats
Law Drinking from Vial He
Wrenched from Hand of
Pauline Clark, Boston Girl.
Boston, March 20.—Driven to sui
cide by remorse over the death of
beautiful Miss Pauline Virginia
Clark, known as the “perfect Venus,"
Otto Haider Larsen was Sunday
found dead a few yards from the
Boston art museum, on the banka of
a river.
Larsen had drunk poison from the
very vial he haa wrenched from the
beauty's hand Thursday morning
after she had killed herself in her
apartment, following a gay party.
Before joining the beautiful woman
in death, Larsen wrote a complete
confession of how he gave her the
poison which ended her life.
Would Have Been Murder Trial.
By his dramatic self-destruction,
he cheated the law, for had Larsen
lived, he would have been tried for
the murder of the girl. He killed her
as the Rev. Clarence V. T. Richeson
killed pretty Avis Linnell and for the
same reason. Richeson’s life was
ended in the electric chair.
According to stories from friends,
Miss Clark quarreled with her broker
sweetheart over Larsen and decided
to be loyal to the student and lover
rather than the broker and luxury.
Then, according to Larsen's friends,
the student was unable to provide
even a modest home for her as his
sweetheart or his wife. This made
him desperate.
The Startling Confession,
Larsen s conression roiiows:
“In order that the disgraceful
comment upon the death of Miss
Clark may be given h. chance to
come to a completion, l take the
liberty in this way to tell what I
know about the tragedy.
“I met Miss Clark about six weeks
ago in her apartment. She was al
ready at that time excessively de
pressed and told me incidents of her
life of such character that at times
1 wondered how she resisted the
temptation to learn what death in
reality is.
“Despite what others may say,
Miss Clark’s parties were given to
kill the moroseness her life had pre
cipitated in her. Defiant of society,
tto strong to ask for help or sym
pathy, she had long ago decided how
the end should be when her many
devoted friends no longer could di
vorce her from the misery of her
own thoughts.
She Asked Him for Poison.
“Knowing me to be a chemist,
Miss Clark asked me to get her
some poison. I agreed, extracting
from her the promise that she would
not use it until her mother came
back. She gave her promise and I
prepared for her a solution of dead
ly poison. No other men or women
ha£ any part in Miss Clark’s sui
cide.
“Last Wednesday night I called
Miss Clark on the telephone about
6 o’clock, she asking me to join her
and her friends as soon as I •a'ould.
I arrived at her apartment where I
met two men, neither of whom I had
ever met before. Another woman,
a friend of Miss Clark’s from Wor
cester. was also present. The two
gentlemen *left shortly after my ar
rival to get a pint of whisky, with
which they appeared a half hour or
so later. Music was played and wo
conversed gayly. I was not feel
ing well, not having any dinner, and
therefore asked permissiQn to go to
cinner. Miss Clark, however, per
sonally made up some sandwicher
and ate with me.
When Larsen Took Vial.
“Around 1:30 Miss Clark and one
of her gentlemen friends were talk
ing quietly together. They were
seated on a couch. I had a suspi
cion that Miss Clark had told her
friend about the poison and also that
she contemplated breaking her prom
ise. I took the vial, but Miss Clark
sa wit and tried to regain it. I
gave it willingly back to her after
having maoe her affirm her promise
not to use it until her mother came
back. A few minutes later, while
I was in the hall, I heard Mr.
cry out for me. Rushing into the
parlor I found Miss Clark dying in
a chair. I tried to make her throw
up the poison, but neither mine nor
Mr.-’s efforts succeeded. It was
then I, knowing of the effects of the
poison, notified phyvsleians by tele
phone and left the apartment, it is
unnecessary to say, to avoid ques
tioning by non-understanding police
men. I preferred to wait until my
testimony would be of value, then
give it and take the rest of the cy
anide as I intended to do already be
fore I had the privilege of meeting
Miss Clark whom I truly estimate to
be one of the world’s most wonderful
women.”
Names of All Arc Obtained.
The police here have the names of
all thos£ at the “suicide party,” but
they are not made public tonight.
Miss Clark’s mother is on her way
here from Point Antoine, Jamaica,
and has asked the Boston authorities
to hold up the disposition of the body
until she arrives.
Larsen’s parents, according to
young Norwegian’s hero, are well to
do but not wealthy. Larson won his
trip to America as a government stu
dent, solely by scholarship.

FOD CONVICTION
ON ALLS VOTES
Beautiful Madalynne Is Amaz
ed but Says She's Going to
Show World She's Not Guilty
Of Kennedy Murder.
BY CHESTER Q. HANSON,
Los Angeles, March 20.—After be
ing out 53 hours, during which time a
steady vote oj 9 to 3 for conviction
was cast on the only five ballots tak
en, the jury that tried Mrs. Madalynne
C. Obenchain on the charge of mur
dering J. Belton Konnedy was dis
missed by Superior Judge Sidney N.
Reeve at 7:45 o’clock Sunday night.
Of the three women on the Jury,
two of them stood with Foreman
Frank W. Crockett, an attorney, for
the acquittal of the former college
beauty.
Deputy District Attorney Asa
Kayes, who led the fight for the
prosecution in the trial, announced
that Mrs. Obenchaln would be re
tried until she was convicted or ac
quitted.
' Burch’s Second Trial Starts 27th.
The second trial of Arthur C. Burch.
Mrs. Obenchatn’s co-defendant, will
open March 27. Hts Jury was dis
missed by Judge Reeve two months
ago after they had failed to agree
following 72 hours of deliberation.
The dismissal of Mrs. Obenclialn’s
Jury came after a long day of ap
parent Inactivity In the jury room.
Judgo Reeve appeared in the court
room and ordered Mrs. Obenchaln
brought in. She entered dressed in
her usual black suit and hat, taking
her seat between Jutl Rush, chief
counsel for the defense, and W. B.
Beirne, associate defense counsel.
In response to the request of the
court, Foreman Crockett announced
the jury was hopelessly disagreed and
that the vote stood 9 to 3. Judge
Reeve then asked each member In
turn for his individual opinion of the
possibility of reaching a verdict. In
each instance the answer was em
phatically "no chance.”
After the usual laudttory words to
the jury for Its work, the court dis
missed them.
Madalynno “Eyes” Jury.
Mrs. Obenchaln, whose cheeks were
slightly flushed, sat at the table with
eyes on each member of the jury as
he rose to state his,opinion.
When she left the room to return
to her cell she carried with her the
Impression that the nine jurymen
were voting for her acquittal. When
Universal Service’s correspondent
talked to her in the office of the Jail
matron, Mrs. Obenchaln had already
prepared to retire, and was clad In a
rose colored velvet dressing gown.
"Nino to three for conviction!” she
exclaimed when told how the vote had
stood. She thought she was being
made the butt of a Joke. "Why, I am
amazed. It is incredible to me. How
could it be so? Do you really mean .
it?”
When given the full details and the
names of the three who had stood by ,
her throughout the balloting, she I I
said:
"All I can say, then, Is that I
am deeply disappointed. I didn’t
expect this.”
She Won’t Turn Cynic.
She thought for a minute as she 1
rested her chin on her clasped hands 1
and gazed at the carpet, and then
continued:
disappointment turn me to a cyn
ic. I still have faith In the power
of the truth to conquer I'm—
well. I'm—going to show the
world that I am Innocent.”
From comment dropped by the
Jurymen as they left the hall of Jus
tice the three who held out for ac
quittal did so on the ground that
whether Arthur Burch killed Ken
nedy or not, they believed she had
nothing to do with It. One of the three
remarked “it Is immaterial whether
he killed Kennedy. Tho state failed
to show that she had the least thing
to do with it." » ,
Mrs. Ohenchain’s trial began on
February G and was interrupted sev
eral times by illness of jurors or wit
nesses.

than one-third of a cent, Germany, It
was stated In banking circles, Is fad

In the devastation crisis and on the
other hand, a still further Inflation.
The report of the Itelchsbank
shows 122,000,000,000 of paper marks
Issued. Financial men view Mon
day’s decline of the mark to S06 to
the dollar with mingled apnthy and
nervousness. Nearly all the evening
papers featured the fact that the
mark is now within five points of Its
lowest record.
To the question as to whether It
may be expected that the devalua

change make a new low record, all
the bankers with whom I talked,
without exception, replied:
"That lies In the hands of our
former enemies.’’
Some of the papers Monday night
expressed fear that Germany Is ap
proaching a new phase of devalua

approaching Austrian conditions. One
of the leading bankers summed up the
situation by saying:
"The full of the mark and the
further Inflation which must In
evitably follow Is evidence of the
Inability of Germany to pay the
super-human burden of repara

As the progressive devaluation of

Warning for People to Flee
From Homes as Mississippi
Rampage Becomes Alarming.
Memphis, Tenn., March 21. — The
Mississippi river flood assumed more
alarming proportions Monday. The
water rose steadily and stood at 35.9
feet Monday night. A stage of 36
feet was expected by daylight.
The indications Monday night were
that the flood would prove more dis
astrous than that of 1916 when many
lives were lost and heavy property
damage resulted from it break in the
levees.
Battle to Strengthen Levees.
Government engineers after review
ing reports of rainfall to tho north
said a stage of 43 feet might bo ex
pected. The Memphis weather bu
reau issued a general flood warning
Monday night. The warning wffs
spread to small towns up and down
ihe river with instructions to send
warnings to isolated plantations. The
people are being told to move to
places of safety.
A battle to strengthen the levees
igainst. the onrush flood was begun
Monday. Harry N. Pharr, chief en
iineer of the St. Francis levee dis
trict, announced that patrols had been
ordered out. Tho levees have been
iivided into 20 mile sections with ex
perienced men In charge of the pa
trols.
"Our levees are stronger than they
were in 1916," Mr. Pharr said Monday
sight. “If we should get a 43 foot •
stage at Memphis it will still leave
hree feet of the levees from the Mis
souri state line south to Memphis
ibove water.
Weakest Point on St. Frances.
The weakest point in tho levee Is
tear the mouth of tho St. Francis

IV>w York, March 21.—How a Swiss
butler “has a soul thar no one un
derstands,” which permitted him to
parade the grounds of an exclusive
Pittsburgh club in his underwear,
how he claimed to have wooed the

Miss McKay’s Statement.
jmiss aicivay sain:
"I have heard that this man
is Insane. Whether his curious
story is a result of insanity or an
attempt to blackmail certain
members of the club I cannot say.
I have only been to the Rolling
Rock club twice and I did not even
know the last name of the butler
until I learned of his wild story.
“Miss Mellon and 1 must not
bo drawn into this affair. I am
sure that no young woman con
nected with any family enjoying
membership in the club ever had
anything to do with this man.
“It seems to me that I heard
he Was mixed up in some scan
dal involving a maid. Whether
this was tho cause of his dis
missal 1 don’t know.”
Probst’s Story.
The story told by I*rob3t follows:
"When 1 worked at the Rolling
Rock club I fell in love with a
young girl of wealth and social
position. She loved me and we
planned to be married. A Pitts
burgh man of means was con
stantly in tho company of my
sweetheart. He was very jeal
ous. He glowered at me and once
laid a revolver on the table I was
serving when it was rumored
around the club that I was court
ing the wealthy young woman.
Then things began to happen.
The day following Washington’s
birthday I was awakened by the
superintendent of the club. He
ordered me to dress at once and
get out of the club.
“I was marched to a train at the
point of a pistol and put aboard
a train for New York where I was
seized by detectives.”
No Attempt to Kidnap.
Tho commissioner of immigration
