New York, Sept. 12.—There is one | T important thing about the new sn’t the fact that the sil houette has suffered a severe change. | That, of course, is very important— | but even more 80 is the joyous news that the price is about a third lower | than last year Yes, fur, which went soaring way beyond the reach of just ordinary pocketbooks, has now descended again into our midst For instance, squirrel cost $1250 last year ma ed for $860 this year. Caracul coats that Iu-l year for 5 sell this year tor § The more ex Coats, sables and such, have descend ed in price accordingly There is one comforting thought— the woman who pald a high price last yoear and has discovered a new sil- houette this year may be consiled. Al- most cvery silhouette is good in fur. To be sure the voluminous kimono- sleeved, envelope wrap isn't the der- nier crl, but it may be worn. The smart fur coats have the waist- line sleeve, as is shown in the taupe squirrel and Scotch mvole Franklin Si- mon model. A jeweled girdle catches this rtonning wrap which has the bloused back of squirrel while the skirt and front are of moleskin. The nipped-in waist line and the flare skirt is also shown in the cara- cul model with extra large squirrel collar from Franklin Simon. CONFESSES MURDER OF AUTO SALESMEN Gmcago Youth Beat Out Their Brains With Ball Bat Chicago, Sept. 12.—Harvey W. Church, frail and 23, after eight hours of questioning has confessed that he killed Bernard J. Daugherty, a Pack- ard motor salesman, and Carl J Ausmus, demonstrator, merely to get the $5,400 car he had proposed to purchase. Church killed both men single hand- od, one at a time. The terrible beat- ings shown on the bodles and the trussing of both were merely “to ba sure they wero dead.” Daugherty, whose handcuffed body with throat slashed, was found in the Desplaines River, near River Forest, last Friday, was the first victim. While Ausmus waited in the car outside Church’s home, Church took Daugherty inside. Immediately in- sidethedoor he turned and pressed a revolver against Daugherty's side, forced him to hold up his hands while he handcuffe dthesalesman and forced _bim into the basement of the house. There, while the helpless man tried vainly to fight back with his manacled nands, the boy swung terrific blows again and again on his head with a baseball bat After Daugherty fell Church slashed his throat, ‘to make sure he was dead,” and pulled the body to one side. Then he returned to the parlor. Handcuffs Second Vietim A few seconds later Ausmus came i, Inquiring as to the delay. Church drew his revolver again and command- er Ausmus to precede him to the base- ment. At the point of the weapon Ausmus submitted to having his hands tied. With the revolver still menacing the demonstrator, the boy seized the ball by again. “Ausmus was in the car at the sald Church, “while I went ineide with Daugherty. I told Daugh- erty I would get him themoney in the parlor. He seemed satisfied and unus- picious. When we got to the parlor I drew a revolver. I don't think Daugh- erty had ahy idea of what I was going to do. He just held up his hands. I guess he thought I was going to roh him. “I pulled out the handcuffs with one hand and told him to hold out nis hands one at a time. All the time I kept the gun levelled at him. He look- ed llke a powerful man and I was not going to give him a chance. “After I snapped one bracelet on I made him hold out the other hand He seemed calm enough. T guess he thought I was going to leave him there while I ran away with the car. “Then I told him the way to the basement stairs and told him to walk that way. I told him I'd kill him if ho ade a break. He walked right along and down the basement atairs. Maybe he thought I was just going to lock him in. When we got to the bottom I told Then 1 took the baseball bat in one hand, but I kept him covered with the gun so that he could not move. Used Bat, Hatchet and Knife ““Purn again,’ I said. He started to turn. I guess he had an idea of what was coming then, but it was too late I swung the bat with all my might, and it caught him right across thas head, he went down, but kept wrig- gling and tried to strike back with his two hands together. ‘I kept beating him over the head until he did not move any more. I hit him with the bat and the hatchet Then I cut his throat. I was afraid he might have come to while I was ong upstairs to get Ausmus. ““Then I went upstairs and waited. I knew Ausmus would come in. He did, & fow moments later. H» wanted to know what the delay was about “ "Where's Daugherty? he asked. I puled the revolver again and told him to hold his hands up quick or I'd blow his brains out “He held them up. I went through the same thing as I did with the other tellow. Daugherty was the only man I knew at that time, but I knew that his fellow Ausmus, as you say his name is, was with the Packard com- pany. “1 tied his hands up, too, and then forced him down the stairs. 1 don't know whether he suspected anything ornot. T bad hauled Daugherty’s body out of the way and I don't think he noticed the apots on the floor. “Before he knew what it was all about I had the bat and was swingiag at him. He tried to fight back, but ft didn't do any good. After he fell in- sonsible I hit him a lot more times wa the head, and then bound him— coats that be purchas nsive tied his hands to his legs and draw them up s0 that I could run the same string around his neck. Buried Omne in Garage “After I had both of them killed, I went to work. I dug a hole under my old car in the garage. 1 didn’t think anybody would look there. I dug up about six inches of cinder. I guess and then took up a row of brick ths was underneath. I kept on digging until 'T thought I had made a hole big enough to put both of them in. “I dragged Ausmus in first. He doubled up so he wouldn't take up s much room. After I got them in the hole I saw that Daugherty would not fit in the same place. I didn't know what to do for a while. I guess 1 was so nervous I forgot to get rid of the rags and clothes and that stuff t you found. “Well, you know what happened to Daugherty. I had to wait until after dark; it was pretty late. I took him in the big Packard. He was all bound up with gunny sacks so there wouid not be any stains in on the car. “I dumped him in the river, right over the bridge, there, where he was found floating. “I had a lot of trouble with that body. Kind of hard for one fellow 1o handle a body that way: you know, it fiipfliops around. I was afraid it was going to make a big splash and draw attention. There didn’t seem to be any- body around at the time, but I didn't take any chances and kept my motor running. 1 was prepared to dash away it anybody showed up, but it was all right “I lifted Daugherty's body up to the railing. 1 guess the body hadn't any more than hit the water before I was In the car, starting away. No- body heard it though, and I took my time getting back ““That certainly was a beautiful car, and I guess I should have gone back and cleaned up the basement right away instead of riding around. It didn’t seem so terribelto me. I wanted the car and I thought I'd get caught if Daugherty or the other fellow got away.” Makes Another Confession This alleged confession characteriz- ed as a “tissue of lies” by Coroner Peter Hoffman, was followed, accord- ing to the police by a second alleged confession in whch Church said he had aoccomplices. In this confession he is sald to have admitted cutting Daugh- erty’s throat with an axe. Investigators today pointed out that Church himself could hardly have handled the body of Daugherty, weighing 220 pounds when he weighed but 135, that Church in his first con- fession referred scveral times to “we" that there has as yet been no ex- planation of how Ausmus’ neck was broken or how Daugherty’s head and face were bruised and beaten to a pulp.
