SOLDIER TESTIFIES ~BUSSIE HUMAN WAS AT KLIN Saw Her With Garbe, Victim of Labasci, Who Now Is in Sing Sing. | i Gussie Humann, charged with per- dury in regard to the murder of her former sweetheart, Harry Dewey Garbe, sat smilingly in the Supreme Court at Long Island City to-day | while witness after witness testified against her. She seemed to be some- what amused, and the saucy blue (pom on top of her hat bobbed up and down as she leaned forward for whis- j Pered consultations with her lawyer. The first witness was Mrs. Mary Bhuttleworth, who lives at Wood- Baven Boulevard and Old South Road H @he declared that she saw Gussie at i H 1.80 o'clock on the night of Oct. 27 Bear the button factory (this is ap- Proximately the time and place of the murder of Garbe). The testimony of Gussie herself, in which she is accused of perjury, was that she did not go near that place that night. So Mrs. Shuttleworth’s testimony was a direct contradiction. Maurice L. Bloom, No. 2433 93d Street, Woodhaven, was the next wit- Bess. He said he saw a man alight from a bicycle at the same time and j Place and talk to a girl—which fits ; the story that the State originally i tried to prove when Gussie herself ‘was tried and acquitted of the murder Mrs. Mabel Bieling, No. 2529 93¢ Street, a sister of Garbe, said she saw Gussie with two men walking toward the scene of the murder be- tween 7.20 and 7.40 o'clock in the evening. But the strongest testimony against the girl was given by Harry Her mann, a prisoner at Fort Hamilton, for being A. W. O. L. from the army “On the night of Oct. 27," he sail, “I met Gussie and Joseph Libasci We went to a drug store, and I waited outside while Joe and Gussie went in. She went to a telephone booth, Then they both came out and we walked down the boulevard. Gussie went ahead alone and presently a man passed us on a bicycle. He got off and began to talk to Gussie. Joe and I followed. When we caught up Joe took out @ gun and shot the man who was talking to Gussie. She stepped aside, out of the Ine of fire. Then she came to us and Joe gave her the gun. Later he got it back from her and gave it to me to dispose of."* It was said that the State may de- cide not to call Libasci, who still wants to marry Gussie in spite of the fact that he is serving a twenty year term for the murder. The defense, however, will call him if the State { i Goes not. } ee —e pe dd ch FORMER MISS DE JONGH SUING FOR ANNULMENT Gays Dr. Rettenberg Misrepre- sented His Position.
