Dutch Schultz Victim Of Rival Mobsters, Who Shot and Killed Two Of His Hench- men.
(A. P. By Guardian's Special Wire)
NEWARK, N. .1., Oct. 24.—Arthur Flegenheimer, the “Dutch Schultz" oi prohibition racketeering fame, died tonight in City Hospital from the bullet wound he received in the raking gunfire oi rival mobsters who shot and killed two of his henchmen and wounded another in a raid on a downtown cafe.
Schultz died st 8:35 P. M. auth- orities at the hospital said.
Otto Barman and Leo Frank, two of the gang chief's lieutenants died earlier today.
The Rev. Cornelius J. Mcfnerney, Roman Catholic priest whom Sch-
ultz had called to the hospital this afternoon was at his bedside with Schultz's wife, mother and sbter, Mrs. Helen Ursprung.
Father Mclnerney. who had known Schultz for i5 years. had baptised him, heard his confession, and as surgeons prepared for the second blood transfusion, had sd- ministered the Sacrament of Ex- treme Unction.
The two gangsters killed in the Newark gunfire were identified us Otto Bielierman and Abraham Lan- dau. The former known i-.iso'iis Barman, was 4c, and acted as a track handicapper. Landau, 40, first gave the name of Leo Frank. After his death police identified him from fingerprints as Landau and said he was a power in the Mumbers racket in New York.
His association with Schultz strengthened the police theory that Schultz and his aides were attacked in a continuation of the warfare over control of the policy racket in New Yoyk and Brooklyn whichhad taken seven lives in the metropolis before the assault on Schultz. ~
New ‘York police concentrated on a search for Albert Stern, 21, alias Stein, described as a killer as ruth- less as the late Vincent Coll. Stern, they said. was also wanted for ques- tioning about the hatchet killing wlednesda of "Pretty Louie" Am- berg, Brooklyn gangster-
Poiice also turned to Central New York State after Martin Krompier. Schultz henchmen who dropped 1n the New York shooting, admitted he had telephoned to I‘roy, NIL. five minutes before he fell seriously wounded. Samuel Gold, a book- maker, who was with K-ompier in the barber shop, was hit three times.
A mysterious "Ethel." who sent Bchultl a telegram from Syracuse. N.Y., was also sousht.
A stolen sedan, believed to have been used by the mobsters who tried to kill Bchults, was found abandon-

ADDIS ABABA, Oct. 23-(0. P.-Havas)—-A battle was raging tonight on the southeast front, with Ethiopian forces outnumbering the Italian troops two to one, according to reports received here.
Unconfirmed messages from the area north of that sector stated that a muddled Italian detachment had entered British Somaliiand in the mistaken belle! that it was operating in Ogaden P. ~‘
Empero Hallie Selanle sent word to Ru Desta Dcmtu. his son-in- law in command oi the troops in the Wcbbe Shibeli Valley, that strat- egic Gorrahel must be held at all costs. Rae Desta was reported to have 300,000 warriors in the field to match the 140,000 trained native and white troops and the superior equipment of Gen. Rodolfo Graziani.
Departure of Count Luigi Vincio- Gigliuccl, head of the now-dis- banded Itslian Legation here will be delayed further because the Italian Consul at Mskaio, whom -the Count aiwaits. has fallen ill on his way to this city, it was learned.
Tribal fighters in the armies of m Data Demtu and Rsis Nassibu are advancing toward Gorrahei in forced marches. Anxiety was ex- pressed here when it was learned that oniy,l,000 Ethiopian warriors are nolw stationed at the settle- ment.
The Webbo Shibeli Valley battle was believed to be the prelude to a major engagement along the iI-‘afan River. whose navillhle length Gorrahel commands. Re- ports received here said Res Desta Demtu had swung his forces into a counter-offensive against native troops under emnmand of General Graziani in a drive to recapture tactically important points taken by the Italians several days ago.
Military experts predicted Ras Desta would move his troops north-

Res Nassibu, co-ccmmander in the southeast, arrived at Harar to- day while his msinarmy was ad- vancing toward Gorrahei. It was believed in some quarters that he was seeking reinforcements.
Troops from Harar were expected to arrive at Jijige. in northern Ogaden Province, tomorrow. From that point they will move due south to protect Res Desta Demtu's left wing, it wasysaid.
The Ethiopian government today received a message from Italian Legation members who left here Oct. 12, expressing appreciation for the protect-ion afforded them in their trip to French Somaliland.

One Division Will Be Sent Home As A Goodwill I Gesture To Britain- Duce Seeks Legalisat- ion Of Ethiopian Conquests.
(By John Evans Associated Pram Foreign Staff)
ROME. Oct. 34-July made a definite gesture of good will to- ward Great Britain tonight by ordering the withdrawal oi one division of soldiers from Libya but at the same time a llwkflmlh l!- serted settlement oi the Ethiopian war would be difficult "as long as the saneticnist machine works at Geneva."
Discussing the removal ci the troops, which have been concen- trated upon the border of Egypt. a fact Britain regarded as a threat. the spokesman said:
“Our actions have been taken on our own initiative. Italy’ hopes the move will be interpreted as a friendly gesture."
But vestiges of nail-British feel- ing lingered in official circles. These described the speech to Parliament yesterday oi Anthony Eden. British Minister for league Affairs, as "much more rigid and less conciliatory" than the ad- dress Tuesday of Bir Samuel Hours, Foreign Secretary-

A Government spokesman said Mussolinfs gesture in Libya rep- resents “a major contribution" to the solution of the problem of peace, not only in Europe but also in East Africa.
The matter, of course, does not dispose of the Itale-Ethiopian dis- pute. But in informed quarters be- lief was expressed that it lays a foundation for a solution, impos- sible a0 long as tension existed be- tween Italy and Britain.
The men to be withdrawn are members of the Metauro division. the "dark horse" among Itch"! colonial tfoope. Their departure from Italy was never officially an- bounced and they sailed after Britain had reinforced her Medit- erranean fleet.
