OF TRIPLE SLAYING Maimed Youth Admits Cicero _| Murders, Seeking to Kill . . Employer’s Son. By the Assodlated Press. § CHICAGO, July’ 14.— The biind ‘quest of revenge by an immigrant of & year ago who had lost a thumb in & lathe was revealed today as the indirect cause of the latest triple slaying in Cicero. ‘Three persons shot. to death in the West Side suburb early Monday were innotent wictims of his search for ret- | * ribution, according to the confession © of James Crucius, allas Granite, who was captured last might. Cruclus was arrested within a few ~ blocks of the scene of the killings when he Yreturned in. search of a fourth, and his intended, victim. , The 21-year-old immigrant - had _ " marked the life of Sol Schwartz, son of the owner of the American Flange & Manufacturing Co. Young | Bchwartz, he said, made him work at I maimed hand. | a defective lathe, which' four weeks fea ;‘o severed the thumb from his left « hand. " Shortly afterward, Crucius said, he ‘was discharged and-was unable to ob- " tain employment because of his He plotted to kill Schwartz. Foreseeing that he would need money for his defense, he start- ed out to obtain funds. He got an automatic pistol, and last week in a ‘West Side “flop house” met Tommy | McWalne, 20, just in from Muskegon, Mich, and also destitute. They loitered together for a . time and agreed to become partner robbers. First they robbed 'an insurance . agent, next a woman and her escort, end then on Sunday night, Crucius said, they set out on another foray. They halted a taxicab, overpowered the chauffeur, took his uniform and | trussed him with tire chains. Proceeding a block they stopped to ¥ob Marie Blang, 23, and Frederick Heln, her escort, who had just driven to Miss Blang’s home from ,church. He made a gesture ‘of.:protést and & fusillade of shots killed both. Then Ludwig Rose, the chauffeur, attempt- ed to escape and was shot down as he fled up the street. Crucius and McWaine fled in the stolen cab, and wrecked it when they crashed through a-railroad crossing gate, Crucius escaping, while Mec- ‘Waine was caught. All day Tuesday L he hid on a roof near the scene of the shooting, appeared at an apart- ment house that night and disappear- ) ed after leaving a suicide note. Last night a patrolman noticed a furtive passer-by with ‘a missing left thumb and arrested him. An hour ~ Jater Crucius had made his incoherent confession. - Crucius sald he shot | Rose and Hein, but not Miss Blang. * SULTAN 1§ JEERED, 50 JAILED IN VIVID BASTILLE DAY FETE (Continued from Flnt Page) * navaf attaches' representing all the ' great powers. Hundreds of thousands of spec. tators packed the Champs Elysees and other avel leading to. the Place de I'Etolle; sité of the Arc a4 Triomphe and Tomb of the Un=+ known Poilu. Marshal Petain and Primb Rivera arrived at the reviewing stand early, ras did the American - Ambassador, Myron Herrick, and others. Crowds glready were massed in the Champs Elysees to see the cars of the officials pass, and the Communists and other radical elements were set for a demonstration against Primo de Rivera and the Sultan. They were disappointed in the case of the Spanish dictator, as he * was at the Arc de Triomphe, but de- risive whistles greeted - the ' Sultan when he passed up the avenue at [ “the side. of President Doumergue in’ an open automobile, with the wusual presidential guard. 3 The whistling and cheering was #bout even, but the President, by con- tinually bowing and doffing his hat, gave the impression to the Sultan that the crowd was acocrding him a warm treception. Scene Is of Brilliance. The gathering of officials at the Arc fle Triomphe presented a scene of color and brilliance. There were a hundred Moroccans in white burnouses, French -generals in blue “and gold, French naval officers in black and ®£old, and foreign ambassadors and at- taches in the glittering uniformsof . their various countries. One striking figure was the Maharajah of Kapur- phala in native robes, wearing his in- ‘signia as a_grand commander of the lm Honor, ' ng the ceremony, President Doumergue decorated several generals with the military medal or the Legion of Honor. N Every branch of the French army ‘was represented in the review, which _ 'was headed by the students of the ‘Polytechnic School and St."Cyr (the French West Point). High lights among the passing troops were native ° tirailleurs “of Tunis, Algeria and Morocco; Senegalese Infantry zou- aves in wide pantaloon« and red hats, Moroccan cavalry of the French army, the personal guard of the Sultan, and ® company of the foreign legion. Artillery Display Made. Infantry, mounted and dismounted cavalry, and artillery from 75 milli- meter” guns up to '256's. gave .a demonstration of - France's military strength on the day devoted-to cele- bration of the fall of the Bastille. Except for the whistling at the Sul- tan, the huge crowds were good na- tured and cheered frequently, shout- ing “Vive '’Armee!” some especial historic battalion paseed. « After the review President Dou- mergue, Gen. Rivera, Sultan Youseff gnd others drove down the Champs Ylysees in automobiles. . Each was nuarded by a squadron of cavalry to jrevent any chance of hostile demon- ¢tration, but the crowd by that tim¢ #eemed entimely good humored. Gen.
