GIRL’S CRIME
WEALTHY BUSINESS MAN SHOT. (By Telegraph—Press Assn. —Copyright). (Australian and N.Z. Cable Association.) NEW YORK, June 6. The Chicago police are seeking a dainty girl who startled the city by an act of banditry and murder. Barely out of her teens, the girl, aided by a male accomplice, held up R. C. Tesmer, a wealthy and prominent business man who was riding with his wife, forcing them to descend from their automobile at the revolver point. As the male robber, under the girl’s instructions, forced the rings from Mrs Tesmer’s fingers, Tesmer moved, whereupon the girl shot and killed him, escaping in the dead man’s car.
