PULLAR & NIVEN WIFE CONF KILLING HUSBAND New Haven Woman Jealous of His Good Looks New York, Aug. 2—Mrs. Alexandria Sokolowsky, twenty-eight, widow of Frank Sokolowsky. representative of the American Federation of Labor, who died of carbolic acid poisoning in their home at New Haven on June 26, was arrested last night at 124th street and Eighth® avenue by Detec- tives Repetto and Petrizzo of In- spector Gray's staff,and locked up in police headquarters, charged with murder. The detectives say she confessed she threw acid on her husband as he slept, because she had found love letters in his clothing and wanted to spoil his good looks. Fell Dead on Porch. The Sokolowskys lived at No. 25 Beers street, New Haven. At about 3:30 o’clock on the morning of June 26 Sokolowsky, blinded, seared and choking, ran from his first floor apartment shouting: “Doctor! Po- lice!” He fell dead upon the porch. Immediately afterward his wife sped to Fridgeport ifi a taxicab, paid the drivar $15 from a roll of bills and vanished She took $700 with her the police learned. Sokolowsky was one of the leaders in a strike of brass workers at Waterbury, and his death was at once suspected to have been caused by strikers opposed to the conciliatory attitude he had adopted during the strike Sokolowsky was able to address the foeign strikers in several languages and upon one occasion spoke as though he had lost heart in the strike. He was strongly rebuked for his attitude. The police worked on the theory he was murdered by per- sons opposed to his leadership until Mre. Sokolowsky's absenge became prolonged. Then a country-wide | search for her was begun. Her photo- "‘"‘ fHout the eountry. _ Detectives Repetto and Petrizzo were assigned to “hunt for her in New York. Several days ago they Jearned that several women of Rus- sian birth were employed as servants in Harlem. Mrs. Sokolowsky was born in Russia. They learned and be- lieved ‘that she might be one of these servants. Admits She Is Fugitive, Last night they were at the 124th street corner when a diminutive woman approached. She was simply dressed and wore large tortoise shell glasses. The detectives waited until they had consulted the photograph and then questioned the woman. She at first dented she was Mrs. Soko- lowsky, but when confronted with the photograph admitted she was the woman sought. After severe questioning at head- quarters Mrs. Sokolowsky, with tears streaming down her cheeks, signed a confession of guilt, the detectives say, the confession as given out by the police was worded thus: “I ‘married Frank Sokolowsky in Canada in January, 1914. We went to live in New Haven. We lived hap- pily for three years, and then he began to stay away. He told me he had business to attend to. He would stay away two weeks at a time. On June 4, I found two letters written in English—a language I could not read very well. “I took them to a girl friend, and after reading them she told me they were love letters. On June 5, my husband wemtito Brooklyn, but came back later idithe night. I wondered whether I d spoll his handsome looks. 1 thguaght “0f carbolic acid. The next day he wanted to gzo to Brooklyn, so I went with him. I saw the woman and saw that she was very much in love with him. A few days later at the Grand Central sta- tion he told me he had to go to Jer- sey City. On June 24 I found an- other letter and on June 25 my hus- band began looking among some of his papers and I felt he was looking for the letter. He went out and came home about 1:30 the next morning. Denies She Meant to Kill. “During his absence vi man, who said, ‘It's too bad; your husband is going to divorce you so he can marry another woman. At about 3 o'clock on the morning of June 26, I went to the medicine chest and filled a glass with car- bolic acid) I threw it on my hus- him and when I did not hear him cry out I spoke to him. Then I ran to the street, where I met a doctor. He came to the house and said, ‘He is dead.’ a “I went to Canada, New Haven, city.” During an investigation of the murder it was learned that Sokolow- | sky, while a pair agent of the Amer- ican Federation of Labor, New Haven branch, and a daily worker in the in- terests of that organization at Water- bury, where he addressed the striking brass workers, was a sccret agent for an organization financed by the fac- tory owners. Left with friends in New Haven is a pretty five-year-old daughter. Mrs. Sokolowsky did not dare write to these friends, fearing her hiding place here would be divulged. At headquarters, after she had signed the confession, Mrs. Sokolow- went back to sky broke down once more and was led away to a cell. The police expect extradition papers will be speedily sent here from New Haven. wResinol at the first sign of skin eruption ‘You don’t know how far that itching spot of eczema, or bit of rash might develop, and it'sbest to check it at once by using RESINOL OINTMENT.
