Ten-Year-Old Max Rogoff Fired Pis- tol He Didn't Know Was Loaded— On Farm In Montville. Seven-year-old Julius Rogof was shot and instantly killed Friday af- ternoon by his cousin, Max Rogof, ten Max Rogof confessed on Saturday to Coroner Brown and Med- ical Examiner Fox. The coroner de- termined that the case was an_acoci- dent and did not hold young Rogof, who_shot the revolver at his cousin, thinking it was not_loaded. The first version' that Medical Bx- aminer Fox got of the death of the little boy was to the effect that he had been playing unobserved with a re- volver that lay in a bureau drawer This version was related to the med- icalexaminer and coroner, but there were suspicions that this was not the truth and after an exhaustive inves- tigation Saturday, the facts were made known. Dr, Fox was notified late Friday af- terncon that & boy had accidentally shot himself at the farm of Harry Rogof at Chapel hill. He informed Coroner Brown and the two officials went there. The body of little Julius, son of Mr. and Mrs. Reuben Rogof of The Bronx, New York, was shown to the coroner and medical examiner and the story of his suicide while inno- cently playing with a loaded cartridge was told. Dr. Fox examined the wound, which showed that the bullet.had ploughed out the right eve and passed through the floor of the brain chamber.

The shooting occurred at 2.30 in the afternoon and before the investigators had arrived both the revolver and a window screen had been hidden. The Rogofs could not be made to produce either. A search was started and the revolver was found d Saturday | morning when the investigation was resumed the screen was found. This had a bullet hole thriugh it and frag- ments of wirehad dropped on the ve- randa as the bullet passed through. One of the women admitted after close questioning that an attempt was being made to shield Max Rogof be- cause they were afraid he would be put in prison and the shooting was entirely accidental.

Half way over the road the bov. believing he was being taken to jall, broke down and con- fessed. To the coroner Max Rogof told the story of soing into the house to play and getting the revolver. He did not think it was loaded and when little Julius climbed up to look in the win- dow, Max, pretending to take Julius for a burglar, pulled the trigger of the revolver and shouted, Julius Rogof arrived at the farm of his uncle in company. with his mother a few days ago.
