FAILS TO RECALL MOVEMENTS ON NIGHT GIRL WAS KILLED Defiant, Prisoner Maintains Iron Com- : posure as Officers Fire Barrage of Queries at Him. BY REX COLLIER, Staff Correspondent of The Star. EN ROUTE TO WASHINGTON FROM MONTREAL, July 18.— Pro!esshg amazement that any one should accuse him .of the brutal murder of Mary Baker, Hermann Henry Barrere, long-sought suspect in the case, remained defiant today as officers returned him by train to face his accusers in Washington and Arlington County, Va. Attired in a pair of travel-worn linen knickers, golf hose and a eream-tinted shirt, the former World war veteran, Washington fire- man and itinerant painter was being grilled relentlessly this- morn- ing as the train sped southward toward New York and the Capital. The questioning, begun last night at police headquarters in Montreal and resumed this morning in the compartment in which he is under custody of Commonwealth’s Attorney William C. Gloth, Detective Lieut. Edward J. Kelly and Federal Agent Samuel W. Hardy, appeared to be as wearing on his inquisitors as on the prisoner. Denies He Ever Knew Baker Girl. Barrere not only denied any connection with the slaying, but steadfastly maintained he never knew the Baker girl. Never saw the gun used to slay her, knew but few details of the murder case from meager newspaper accounts he had read and had no idea he was the objective of an.international police dragnet. “It's all a big mystery to me why you should think I had any- thing to do with the Baker case,” Barrere declared again and again. “I don’t understand it at all.” § “How do you expect us to believe you didn’t even know we weére looking for you?” th demanded angrily, “Why, we even had your description sent out over the radio, and thousands of circulars were sent in every tion.” “I'm telling you the fruth, Mr. Gloth,” the prisoner replied with 'm & square-shooter warmth. “I'm not lying to you about anything. with ever{body.” “You lied to those Montreal officers when you said I Had arrested you and questioned you in connection with the Baker case in Arlington County,” the prosecutor shot back. “Well, there must have been a misunderstanding about that, I probably was not entirely responsible for all my statements when I was arrested,” Barrere explained. According to the €anadian authorities, Barrere was under the influence of liquor when he was taken into custody, and on being quizzed about the Baker case he said he had been jailed once as-a suspect and released. Apparently Barrere referred to his arrest several days after the death of Mary. Baker on theft charges pre- ferred by Herbert M. Campbell, whose house in Oakcrest Barrere had contracted to paint. At the time Barrere was not regarded as @ suspect in the murder case. Manner Becomes Belll;ere'nt. Efforts of Gloth and Kelly to gain from the prisoner an hour- by-hour account of his movements on the evening of the killing met with little co-operation on the part of Barrere. Quick-witted and smooth of gue, Barrere replied readily and emphatically to most of the questions hurled at him, but his manner became belligerent when the questioning carried implications of serious import. He declared he could not remember clearly what he did or where he was on the night of the tragedy, but added he could find out by talking with some of his friends. ‘The man maintained an iron composure in the face of the never- ending barrage of queries fired at him, although it seemed at times he was hard put to restrain himself from losing his temper or his nerve, A scrubby growth of beard did not hide the smiles of irony or of incredulity that alternately played across his features. ‘Willingly Surrenders to Officers. Having waived extradition in court proceedings yesterday, Bar- rere wiilingly surrendered himself to the trio of officers who had come for him and seemed in a light-hearted mood as he climbed aboard the train in Montreal at 10" o’clock this morning. Entraining with him was the Philadelphia woman with whom he had arrived in Montreal last Sunday night. The woman was not under arrest, but was to be questioned before leaving the train at an upstate city in New York. Barrere may be held overnight in New York. Gloth, Kelly and Hardy were closeted with Barrere for hours last night in the office of Inspector of Detectives Victor Foucault of the Montreal police department. While the Montreal officer sat by the trio of visiting officers plied the prisoner with hundreds of questions until early in the morning. When Gloth emerged from the room | several times he was mopping perspira- tion from his forehead. used to kill Mary Baker,” Gloth burst out. Gloth Complains of Evasion. “He hasn’t told us a thing we wanted to know,” the prosecutor*declared with a shake of his head. “He's evading too many of our questions, His memory is bad at times. He will need a lot of uestioning.” Gloth said that about all ere could remember about his movements on April 11, the day of the murder, was that he signed a contract with Mr, Campbell to paint the latter's house, the agreement being negotiated about 2 or 3 o'clock in the afternoon. end that afterward he “drank some coffee with a woman friend.” He gave the name of a. woman who, he declared, probably could aid in de- termining where he was on the evening of the tragedy. This woman’s name al- ready was known to police. When Gloth sought'to draw out the prisoner as to his knowledge of cir- cumstances attending the crime, Bar- rere impatiently declared he knew noth- ing about it beyond what he had read in the TS, "Andp.lp;llven‘l read a newspaper for a whole month.” The prisoner re- marked with a laugh. t's oue of the reasons I didn't know you were after Assisting the trio from Washington in illing the suspect last night were A. .

Barrere had jbeen drinking, according to his ‘own admission and he created & disturbance outside the office of the detective chief. | Inspector Foucault took him in hand and, learning he wes from Washington, recalled the Barrere “Lookout” circu- lars and soon convinced himself he had Barrere before him.

Unjess there is rain within the next 10 days 50,000 residents of nearby Maryland, served by the Washington Suburban’ Sanitary Commission, will be.| compelled to curtail tHeir water con- sumption by half. This was made known today with the announcement by Robert B. Morse, chief engineer of ,the commission, that but 10 days' supply of water remains in the reservoir at Burnt Mills, and when this is exhausted the metropoli- tan areas of Montgomery and Prince Georges Counties must rely on the water that can be pumped from the Northwest Branch and the 1,000,000 gallons a day that can be furnished the commission by the District of Columblia.

Reservoir Recently Finished. ‘The Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission serves practically all- sec- tions of Montgomery and Prince Georges Counties adjacent to Washington. Its water is taken from the Northwestern Branch and until February was pumped directly from the stream. Last February a reservoir at Burnt Mills, in Montgomery County, was com- pleted and put in operation. At that time its use was urgent because of four or five thousand more persons sup- plied by the commission than last year. Without it, even with help from the District's mains, the consumption of from five to six million gallons daily of Pel;b{( Maryland would have to be cut n_half. It is this curtailment that is faced. ‘The level in the reservoir is 31, feet below the crest of the dam, Mr. Morse declared today, leaving only approxi- mately 16,000,000 gallons. It is esti- mated that the 16,000,000 gallons, sup- plemented by water pumped directly from the stream and from the District’s mains, will last 10 days unless rains afford rellef. May Regulate Use. Several showers or a day's steady rain would relieve the situation to & considerable extent, Mr. Morse said. It was intimated that if there is no rain within the next few days, the com- mission probably will meet and pass regulations for sprinkling lawns and similar uses of water, Meanwhile, Mr. Morse declared, residents of the section could help materially by exercising care in conserving the water supply. ‘The unpleasant taste of the water supplied by the commission recently, which brought a flood of complaints, has been removed through treatment with copper sulphate, Mr. Morse sald, explaining that it was due to the pres- ence in the water of algae, which muiltiply rapidly in warm weather, but have no harmful effect. The copper sulphate does not affect the taste of the water. Large Number Served. . ‘There are more than 11,000 connecs tions the mains in Montgomery and Prince Georges Counties.

GERMAN REIGHSTAG ENDED BY BRUENING Dissolution Nullifies Revoca- tion of Chancellor’s Revised | Tax Program. By 'lh- Assoclated Press. BERLIN, July 18.—The Reichstag today was dissolved by presidential de- cree to safeguard enforcement of the German tax measures made law by proclamation under article 48 of the eonstitution. Knowing that Chancellor Bruening l-: had President Hindenburg’s authoriza- tion to send them home if they revoked his revised program, which earlier in the week he had pushed through under article 48 of the constitution, the Reich- tag members nevertheless today passed by 236 to 221, a motion revoking the cabinet’s measures. Dissolution Nullifies Action. Chancellor Bruening thereupon de- clared the Reichstag dissolved, nully- fying their action amid the howls of the opposition. New Reichstag elections, according to the constitution, must be held not later than Seggeember 14, this year. Until election, the Bruening cabi- net will continue in office, ruling under the emergency powers conferred by article 48.

GOULD LINCOLN. The die-hards opposing the London naval treaty, under the leadership of Senator Hiram Johnson of California, -determined at a conference this morn- ing “to die fighting.” The opponents of the treaty in the | Senate flatly declined to agree to any time for limiting debate on the treaty or reaching a vote, it was said after the conference. ‘The supporters of the treaty imme- | diately prepared ‘to go ahead with sessions of the Senate tonight and tomorrow and possibly tomorrow night in order to bring the debate to an end and to get action. Senator Watson of Indiana, the Republican leader, said that if it is impossible to bring to an end the debate in a reasonable time by holding day and night sessions the sup- porters of the treaty then probably would bring in a petition to invoke the cloture rule. The petition has already been signed by 38 Senators, which is far more than enough to propose that the cloture rule be invoked. Senator Watson took issue with statements made by the opponents of the treaty that they were not filibuster- ing. He added that after a night ses- sion or two has been held “it will be obvious to the whole country that a filibuster is on to prevent action on the naval treaty.” Night Sessions May Speed Action. In some quarters today the predic- tion was made that b{ Tholding night sessions the Senate will really dispose of the treaty more quickly than if an agreement were made to limit debate and to vote the middle of next week. It 1s true that a number of reservations and others will be offered which must be acted upon. There is a limit, how- ever, to the length of time which the opponents of the treaty, a mere hand- ful, will be able to talk. Senator .George H. Moses of New Hampshire, one of the leaders in the fight against the treaty, returned to ‘Washington today and delivered an ad- dress at the opening of the session to- day, attacking the measure.

Charged with making false pretenses in the sale of a house to & Govern« ment employe, Jacob Shapiro, president of the Joseph Shapiro Co., Inc., into whose real estate operations the Sen=~ ate District subcommittee has started investigations, surrendered voluntarily to the United States attorney today and was released on $10,000 bond. Shapiro presented himself earlier in the day to Mr. Rover when the United States attorney, acting on the complaint of Walter S. Prisbie of 1718 Itving sireet, had a warrant sworn gt before Commissioner Needham C. Turnage. Refuses to Waive ¥mmunity. The real estate operator, when called as a witness ‘before Senator Blaine’s subcommittee yesterday, had refused to z!ver of immunity from prose- cution court. He declined on the Senator Blaine excused him, being un- willing to let him testify under the cir- cumstances. “There may be another department of the Government which will intervene in this matter,” he said, “and it may be defeated in its purmse if we permitted you to testify without waiver of im- munity.” District Aftorney Rover said today that the transaction which Mr. Frishie had with Shapiro, about two years ago, was practically identical with that al- leged in testimony by various complain- ants before the Senate subcommittee TO DE FRTING' E552 5 mortgage” on p: T Shapiro, without a certificate of title. in Frisbie's case, the trust amounted to approximately $4,000, Mr. Rover, said. Expects More Complaints. ‘The district attorney stated that Frisbie's was the only complaint of this nature his office had received in- | volving the Shapiro firm or any other real estate firm in the city. “But I anticipate a flood of similar complaints tomorrow.” he added. For this reason, Mr. Rover explained, he deemed it advisable to ask for bond in the amount of $10,000. Commissioner Turnage set Shapiro's hearing for August 5. The real estate operator appeared at the Commission- er’s office in the company of his at- torney, Alvin L. Newmyer, when it was known that the warrant had been is- sued. It was sworn out R. F. Cam- alier, an assistant United States at- torney, at the direction of Rover. Shapiro at once furnished bond through Milton S. Kronheim, professional bonds- man. The warrant charges that Shapiro falsely represented to Prisbie, purchaser of the house at 1718 Irving street, that the property was clear of all encum- brances except $10,000. He concealed, it was charged, the existence of a sec- ond lien of approximately $4.000. Rover charges that Shapiro had been making payments on this second lien, and, consequently, the amount of the false pretense as charged in the war- rant, involved only about $500. Frisbie Not Senate Witness. ‘The District Attorney revealed that Frisble, who is employed in the De- partment of Agriculture, had made the complaint several days before the Sen- ate District subcommittee met yester- day. The complainant was not one of the witnesses before the committee, however. “We have had rumors of the exist- ence of such cases,” Rover said, “but (Continued on Page 2, Column 5.)
