Notice of funeral hereafter. DR. WILKINS BREAKS DOWN IN HIS CELL AND WEEPS BITTERLY Says He Is Innocent and Jury Has Made a Great Mistake. Sentence Tuesday. (Special to The Eagle.) Mineola, L.

June 28-For the first time since he has been accused of the murder of his wife, Mrs. Julia Krauss Wilkins, Dr. Walter Keene Wilkins broke down and wept bitterly in his cell in the Nassau County Jail last night. When he awakened after what had seemed to his guards to a peaceful, dreamless sleep, he collapsed again, repeating again and again: "They have made a great mistake." After the doctor was taken from the courtroom where he had maintained calm. undisturbed attitude even when he heard the jury bring in verdict of guilty of murder in the first degree, he was taken to a cell, No.

1, on the lower tier. where was kept under double guard. Sheriff Seaman took all of his clothes and belongings and everything in the cell with which the prisoner might do himself an injury. Only box containing three harmless pills were left with him. The jail authorities took special pains to see that the doctor could not hurt himself any way.

Then Dr. Wilkins broke down and began to sob and cry aloud. Soon afterward he fell asleep and slept well until he woke up early this morning and began to cry again. He had appetite and ate only a roll and a cup of coffee. To the prison authorities, he said: "Gentlemen, I can only say that am innocent.

I loved that women death." He thanked the keepers for their kindness and then told Charles Wysong, his attorney, that he believed that he was the victim of a frame- -up on the part of the detectives. He said that he did not blame District Attorney Weeks for his work in prosecuting him, for, he said, he realized that that was Weeks' duty. Then the doctor became quiet and kept staring out at the sky, the only thing visible from the cell window. After Dr. Wilkins is sentenced by Judge David F.

Manning he will he taken directly to the Sing Sing Prison in an automobile. The auto will be driven by Carmen Plant, the Nassau County detective, and Sheriff Phineas Seaman. and Keeper Edward Lewis will be in the tonneau with Wilkins. Dr. Wilkins was found guilty of murder in the first degree by a jury before Justice Manning in the Supreme Court yesterday afternoon.

after more than 23 hours of deliberation. By this verdict the jury affirmed that it was he who killed his wife. Mrs. Julia Krauss Wilkins. She was the victim of a most atrocious murder.

She was beaten to death with a machinist's hammer wrapped in paper at her home on Olive Long Beach, on the night of February 27. And it was just four months later that Dr. Wilkins was convicted of the crime. He maintained his innocence and still insists he is the victim of "a mistake." in face of his absolutely unbelievable story that his wife was done to death by "Dick." one of three burglars discovered in the Long Beach cottage when Dr. and Mrs.

Wilkins returned from their daily visit to their Manhattan home. Dr. Wilking will be sentenced on Tuesday morning, when Justice Man. ning will set a date for his execution at Sing Sing under the first degree verdict. This proceeding, however, does not mean that the doctor will be electrocuted on the date originally fixed.

for the conviction must be reviewed by the Court of Appeals, and even if that court should sustain the conviction it would mean a delay of six or seven months at least, and then the Court of Appeals will fix a new date for the infliction of the death penalty. Of all the persons who were directly interested. for various reasons. in the outcome of trial, Dr. Wilkins himself was only person the whose emotions were not stirred by the announcement of the verdict that meant the death penalty.

It was delivered at 3:34 p.m., according to Court Clerk Seeley's watch. A few moments before Dr. Wilkins, who had been sitting in the lawyers' consultation room, guarded by a sleepy, hollow court tendant, was summoned to the courtroom. "The jury is ready to whispered the attendant who brought the summons. Dr.

Wilkins Bears Up. Dr. Wilkins, who had not slept a wink since Thursday morning and bore the strain of the long vigil seemingly better than most of the youngsters, walked briskly into the courtroom. The jurors were noticeably nervous. Oscar Paries looked straight at Dr.

Wilkins, standing erect, and in a tone that betrayed nervousness, he said: "We find the defendant guilty as charged." "We want-" stammered another juror: and after a second Paries continued: "We recommend the mercy of the court." The vast throng in the courtroom was stirred by emotional excitement. The jurors fidgeted. Women's faces DEATHS SNYDER- -On Friday, June 27, 1919. WARREN SNYDER. Funeral services will be held at his home, 282 St.

EDWIN BAYEA. FUNERAL DAN SCTOR, 219 ATLANTIC AV. 1 TELEPHONE 609 FLATBUSH 1259 MAIN In Case of Death, Call "Columbus 8200" FRANK E. CAMPBELL "THE FUNERAL CHURCH" B'way at 66th Manhattan Downtown Office, 214 8th Ay turned white and men's faces got tense. Dr.

Wilkins alone seemed unruffled. "It pains me that I cannot accede to your request," said Justice Manning, "for your verdict carries with prescribed by law. and clemency that is extended can be exercised only by the Governor." In 8 hoarse whisper, Charles N. Wysong. Dr.

Wilkins' chief counsel, asked that the Jury be polled. Each of the twelve said "It is" in answer to the clerk's question, "Is that your verdict?" move that the verdict be set aside as contrary to the weight of said Mr. Wysong. The court denied the motion. Dr.

Wilkins, in the same, smooth, high-pitched voice, gave his pedigree to Clerk Seeley. He said he was born in Gorham, was 67 years old, a physician, an Episcopalian, and that he had not learned any mechanical trade. He said he had never before been convicted of a crime. He was not asked whether he WAS married and Mr. Seeley entered him on the record as a widower.

His Finger Prints Taken. After he had been "booked." he was taken to the laboratory of Charles W. Hanson, the county finger print expert and photographer, a few doors from the courtroom. He was photographed, finger printed and weighed. He tipped the scales at 190 pounds.

"I am absolutely innocent." said Dr. Wilkins to the reporters in a note transmitted by Mr. Wysong. "I never injured a hair in my wife's head. I who was universally 60 generous to never could have, Injured a woman me.

We never had a steak that she did not insist that I have the tenderloin. "There was never anything but love in our house. There has been an awful mistake. The jury could not have understood the law when they rendered a verdict of murder in the first degree and then recommended mercy. I am stunned." Lawyer Wysong expressed the opinion for himself that the jury did not know was doing when it rendered a verdict and then haeath recommended mercy, am still convinced of his innocence.

Of course. the case will have to go to the Court of Appeals. but I will go beyond that -to the Governor, if necessary. I don't believe the doctor will live to be electrocuted." Oscar W. Paries.

foreman of the jury, and some of his associates who were worn out and bedraggled from their long and animated discussion of the evidence, told reporters that they meant the first degree verdict and knew its significance. "It is no easy task to stand up in a crowded courtroom and announce such a sig. nificent verdict." said Paries. "and guess we all were a bit nervous. What we really meant to do was to ask the court to not interpose any plea for action by the Governor.

We considered it our duty to bring in the first degree verdict. We were convinced that he did the killing, and having come to that conclusion such an atrocious crime could not be called anything less than murder in the first degree. for there was every evidence that some plans had been made to bring about the death of the deceased."

TO MAKE FOREIGNERS PAY HIGH FOR PIERS. Beroizheimer Says American Firms Should Get Preference From City. City Chamberlain Philip Berolzheimer, as a member of the Sinking Fund Commission, which has exclusive control over all waterfront improvements and the leasing of City piers, today sent a letter to Dock Commissioner Murray Hulbert advocating the policy of compelling foreign shipping companies pay a higher price for dock space than that charged to American companies.

Mr. Berolzheimer makes special reference to the Japanese Steamship Company, now negotiating with the City for the lease of new docks to be erected in Staten Island, at a cost of $15.000,000, at a rental equal to 1 per cent. of the cost.

NO. 51 THIS COUPON With Two Others of Different Numbers From the BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE Entitles Reader to a Copy of THE NEW UNIVERSITIES DICTIONARY LUSTRATID Upon Payment of 98 Cents at Eagle Maia Office and Branches. By Parcel Post, $1.05 NO COLLEEN ROLES FOR 200-LB. WOMEN Democrats Here Seek to Raise From $3,000 to $15,000 for De Valera Cause.

A fund of anywhere $3.000 and $15.000 for the Irish between, freedom as represented by Eamonn De Valera, President of the unrecognized Irish Republic, is the aim of the special committee headed by Public Works Commissioner Joseph A. Guider and appointed by the Kings Democratic Executive Committee to consider the matter. The committee held its first meeting yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Mary O'Malley and Superintendent of Sewers James J.

Browne was appointed to sound out theater managers as to terms. The two went to Coney Island this afternoon to take up the matter with the managers of the Brighton Beach Theater and other sort managers, and have been instructed to report back at another meeting of the larger committee to be held Monday afternoon. Many suggestions were made at the meeting yesterday, but no definite program was mapped out. Most of the committee are in favor of raising as large a sum as possible and it was suggested that if the plan took the form of a benefit performance, big charges would be made for admissions. One suggestion was that box seats be sold for $5 each, orchestra seats for $3 and balcony and gallery seuts for $2.

The session of the committee was held behind closed doors, but news leaked out that some interesting talk was heard. One woman member suggested that all the women of the county committee dress up as colleens and sell souvenirs, the proceeds from which would gO to the Irish cause. This plan, so it is said, was "killed" by one of the woman memhers of the county committee who tips the scales. at about 200 pounds. and asked how she could effect the role of a colleen without converting herself into a comedienne.

It was also suggested that if a theater party was held the program should be interrupted at various points by speakers who would talk on the Irish cause, and this, a it was stated, would be an ideal way to stage a speech by De Valera himself. It was announced at the WaldorfAstoria today shortly before the departure of De Valera for Boston that David I. Walsh, United States Senator for Massachusetts, had left Washington for Boston and will speak with the Irish President at the big meeting in Fenway Baseball Park at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. De Valera will speak on "Ireland and the League of Nations."

The police began a widespread investigation today to establish the identity of the man whose body was found hacked to pieces in a suit case among some unclaimed baggage at the Mills Hotel, 36th st. and Seventh Manhattan, yesterday. Files in the Missing Persons Bureau are to be searched as far back as 1914 in the hope of finding on one of the identification cards a description approximating that pieced together from fragments of the dead man's body.

Practically the only workable. clue the police have. with exception of suit case, is the dental work in the victim's mouth.

An examination of the suitcase was made at the Morgue today.

The suitcase is of a good quality, as are also three Turkish towels found in it. Two sets of initials were found on the suitcase, one end showing the initials N. while on one of the other sides are scratched the initials An examination of the bones revealed that the skull is well shaped and shows high cheek bones. partly covered with dry flesh. There is also some dry flesh on the arm bones.

BAR TOURISTS TO FRANCE Washington, June 28--Tourist travel to France from this country will not be permitted before next year, the State Department announces. Business men will be permitted to send agents to any European country following the signing of the Peace Treaty, it was said, but restrictions as to the return trip will continue in force because of the needs of space for soldiers and civilian War Department employees.

MAYREVOKECHARTER OF RAND SCHOOL FOR URGING REVOLUTION Deputy Attorney General Prepares Papers in Supreme Court Action. Deputy Attorney General Samuel A. Berger announced today that he was preparing papers in an action to be commenced in the Supreme Court within the next few days for the purpose of revoking the charter under which the Rand School of Social Science, at 7 East 15th Manhattan, has been operating.

This action was directed by the Lusk Committee which is probing sedition and Bolshevism, following the disclosures at hearing yesterday lathe when it was shown that the school had sent out letters urging people to "take over the "be ready to meet the militia." and asking: "Are you arming yourselves so that when the clashes come your organization will be strong enough to resist and overthrow them'-referring to the "camps of the capitalists." Mr. Berger stated his papers were not ready and that it had not been decided yet what would be the exact legal grounds upon which the action would be based. He said it would, however, undoubtedly be based on a charge of violating the General Corporations Law. although he did not know, he added, what specific violation would be charged. The Rand School has no charter of its own.

It operates under a charter granted in 1901 by former Supreme Court Justice James A. O'Gorman, later U. S. Senator, to the American Socialist Society, the incorporators being Leonard D. Abbott, William Mailly, Professor George D.

Herron, Carrie Rand Herron. Henry Slobodin, Algernon Lee, Job Harriman. Morris Hillquit and Benjamin Hanford. Mr. Berger he expected to be ready to go into court with the case early next week.

A curious situation was pointed out today in the fact that while Mr. O'Gorman is a strong anti- Bolshevist he had, as a Justice of the Supreme Court, granted the charter under which the Rand School now operates, while his son-in-law. Dudley Field Malone, has been brought into the testimony as having correspondence with the Bolshevists, and his law partner, George Gordon Battle. is attorney for L. C.

A. K. Martens, head of the Soviet Bureau, In addition to the legal move against the Rand School as an institution, Clayton R. Lusk, 'chairman of the committee. indicated today that if it were possible to identify the actual writers of the letters urging people to "be ready to meet the militia." arrest and prosecution of those persons inwere signed only "Correspondence dividually would follow.

The letters Department" and were carbon copies of typewritten originals. In connection with this it was pointed out that Assistant District Attorney Alexander Rorke. from District Attorney Swann's office. had listened to the testimony taken yesterday. Some of this testimony showed that lecturers who had been talking on the social problem for the Rand School recently had been paid big money for their services.

Lusk pointed out that Scott Nearing had received from April 28 to May 29, 1919, the sum of $555 for his work. Others on the list were paid in fees for separate lectures. Benjamin Glassberg, who was recently dismissed from the faculty of Commercial High School in Brook for Bolshevistic teachings, the test. mony showed had received $5 for locturing on American politics and general Socialistic topics.
