"Thank God you got me. I’ll un-
bosom myself and lighten my suf-

mysterious force that makes me set

I never had any desire-to injure any
one. It was the furthest thought
from my mind. That‘s why I set
fire to unoccupied buildings or to
empty loft buildings or to the up-

body was in the building he could
make his way out by the roof.
“I am not alone thofollow who

Homicide Court oyster-day after wit—

shooting of Vincent Fishers. alleged
motor car thief. which. .dlffered
sharply from McAlllster'l story of
the event. » .
McAlllster was first held on a
short ‘aflidavit. After the murder
charge was drawn up he was re-
mnnded to the Tombs without bail
to,a.wa.it. the action of the Grand
Jury.

Later. he testified. McAlllster said
he wished hq had killed him as well
u Fishers. and that the “flying
cop." with another policeman. at-
tempted to'rub the powder marks
from the coat. .
The patrolman in the first story of
the shooting said that the two men
were acting suspiciously near an
automobile parked at the intersec-
lion.
. Damdro’s version was substantiat-
Cd in In” by Morris Friedman, a
real estate operator of 312 Manhat-
fan Avenue. who said he witnessed
the shooting and that the twa men
approached McAlllller as Dmdro
had" said. He said he was talking
with McAlister when the two came
up and that he turned and walked
away. He had gone fifteen feet. he
said, when he heard a. shot and
turned to see. one or the men lying
on the sidewalk.
"One of them tried to make a pass
at me.” McAllister said then, the real
estate man testified.
”Counsel for McAllister tried from
this statement to snow that the po-
llcemon fired in self defense. The
Magistrate held, however, that a
policeman is Justified in taking life
only when his own is in danger
and that. while McAlltster would
have been within his rights in using
the fist: he had no right'to resort to
his revolver.
Damdro denied that either he or
the slain man had a revolver. “We
had only money in our pockets." he
said. He explained that they had
gone to 115th street and Manhat-
tan Avenue to visit a. woman living
at 312 Manhattan Avenue.

McAlllstor apparently was

WILLILIANTIC, Conn. Aug. 21
-—Becn.use it is as cheap to tear
down the forty foot spire of file
Methodist Church as to paint it
with the present high cost of
labor and paint. the trustees of
the church have decided to raze
the spire. A. .cross over the bel-
fry to be electrically lighted at
night will replace the spire. The
church was built in 1850
ment as he was led into an antcroom
on his way to 1:23 Tombs. and he
buried his head on his wife's sould-
er. Then he recovered his spirits and
smiled.
(‘Take gpod care of her and don't
let her work," he. told a friend with
her.
His attorney expressed confidence
that McAlltster will be cleared and
also was unable to see why a. "po—
lice officer in the performance of his
duty" should be held sponaible "if
he recognizes a felon Wt puts his
hand to his hip at is to draw a gun

about. a. raid on the wine Cellar of

That case was dismissed in Gen-
