GANGSTER’S WIDOW IS HELD

Mrs. Arthur (Dutch Schultz) Flegeneimer

The former night club hostess wept bitterly as she left the hospital after bidding final good-by to her dying husband. Mrs. Flegeneimer was held as a material witness after she admitted to police she was the woman who visited Schultz shortly before he was shot.

WAS SCHULTZ SHOT BY ONE OF HIS OWN MEN?

This reconstruction pf the scene of the Newark massacre shows how Ditch Schultz came into the direct line of fire of his own bodyguards as he left the washroom and started to return to his table. A .45 slug killed him; the raiding gunmen are belived to have used a shotgun and a machine gun. Schultz’s men toted .45s.

RACKET OVERLOAD FIGHTS FOR HIS LIFE

Arthur (Dutch Schultz) Flegenheimer

The sometime king of the racketeers as he lay in Newark City Hospital today, fighting against death. The bullet wound in his left breast is plainly visible. A mixture of fear and bewilderment is painted on his face and indicated by his fluttering hands.
