Amy A WOMAN IS IN THE NET Supposed to be Concerned In Little Girl's Murder 1 The Police Subject Hit to Every Known "Degreo" to Make Hit Re veal What She; Knows of the Strangling of the Child. (By Leased Wire to The Times.) New York, Aug. 2 Anna Meszer, suspected of having had a part in the murder of little Kate Tietschler, the child who war. . found strangled to death and her body mutilated in the basement oi the tenement at No. 20:'. First avenue, was held without bail for the coroner when arraigned in the night court at Jefferson 'Market at 2 a. m. today. The woman was taken to police headquarters at once, and the detec tives began to question her. All through the morning hours the wo man was subjected to every "degree" known to the police in efforts to get her to reveal what she is believed to know of the crime. The woman is of the stolid sort, bleary-eyed, coarse-featured and of an expressionless face. She looks neither cunning nor revengeful, but heavy and stupid. The detectives, however, are work ing on the theory that the little child was lured from her home, and after horrible mistreatment, strangled to death in revenge because of a wrong the woman Imagined she had suffered at the hands of the girl's parents. The detectives learned that the wo man has been known under several names. She readily admitted that ehe had been on intimate terms with Gaetano RIppolene, the cobbler, who has a shop adjoining the building In which the murdered girl lived, and also with Giuseppe Banfanta, one of the cobbler's employes. The.e two men are both held without bail on suspicion of connection with the mur der.' The woman denied positively that Bhe knew of the murder, or that she had lured the child from home. She made other statements, which, after Investigation, proved untrue. That an Italian answering the description of one of the prisoners had met Kate In Gramercy Square and given her candy and then kissed her, was learned by the detectives. The chi'd's father was suspicious of the Meszer woman from the mo ment his daughter was missed from home. POLICE IN QUEST OF ANARMENIAN (By Leased Wire to The Times,) New York, Aug. 2.

Shaw A Strange Story Has Been Brought Out liy an Attempt to Have the Estate of Catherine Ann Ten Eyck Partitioned. (By Leased Wire to Tho Times.) Nev York, Aup. 2. .Lawyer Alfred I', flowen In a brief submitted -in the courts here, questions the validity of Jhe charter of Hooker T. Washington's institution' nf Tuskogee; The Farmers '.Loan . & . Trust Company, trustees un der t lie will of .Catherine Ann Ten Kyrk. Is seeking to have the estate partitioned. Lawyer Cowon is oppos ing on 'behalf of the eight defendants, who contest the will of Mary K. Shaw, one of the legatees under the Ten Kyek will. The contest has 'brought" out a strange story. Catherine Ten Eyck was a, mulatto, whose husband was a servant in the home of the old Dutch Ten Eyck. He amassed a fortune and was known as the richest negro In tho north. Among Catherine Ecn Eyek'. servants was Mary E. Shaw, for whom she developed , a. strong affection. She made her residuary legatee, ' with au thority to dispose of it by' will, to such "persons" or "person" as she saw fit. In possession of the property, Mary Shaw went to Europe, where she spent $100,000 trying to break into society. She failed and returned here broken in health. She was accompanied by a West Indian negro for whom she left her husband. She made a will be queathing $30. to her husband and the remainder of the trust estate to friends, relatives, the Tuskege Insti tute and other Institutions. Lawyer Cowen cites authorities to show that a "person" is not a corpor ation; that the Shaw woman's will did not comply with the provisions of the Ten Eyck will. He then refers to the charter of the Tuskegee Institute, which he attacks. SWANNANOA HERMIT DEAD, -SELF-POISONED, (Special to The Evening Times.) Asheville, N.

"It is a dismal fact," said he, "that the Increased expense of. bringing up children In cities, where people either choose or are compelled to live, is largely responsible for the decrease in the birth rate. "I have estimated It carefully that among the middle classes In our cities each child will cost his parents $25,000 from his birth until he reaches eco nomic independence." Mr. Brooks declared that for each case of insanity or suicide there were ten sources of . degeneration which many ascribe to the rapid pace of mod- era me. HER HOME MISSISSIPPI SHORT TALKS BY L. T.
