4798 | Buffalo NY Courier Express - 8/31/1929 Dramatically selecting a story In a cheap magazine entitled The Scum jof the Tenements on which to place his farewell note reading, "I meet the end of the trail-forgive a fool. Dutch," John Weiss, one-legged and ' about 29-years-old, 190 Walnut street, last night slew Julia Binga, 33 years j old, by slashing her Jugular vein with a razor and then attempted suicide. He is in the Emergency hospital under police surveillance and will recover. Weiss, an ex-convict, is believed $o have murdered his companion, and then, realizing the enormity of his crime, wrote two notes and then attempted to take his own life. One Addressed to Father The "end of the trail note" was not addressed to anyone. The second note-both incidentally were written in an excellent hand-was addressed to the father of Weiss. It read. 'My last request. Bury me and Julia, my first love, together. My government insurance will cover expenses." Weiss, apparently drunk for several days, carefully searched through several lurid magazines, police say, until he found the two titles fittingly dramatic enough for murder and suicide. The second one was Danger Rides. Find Woman Dead A dark, squalid room, Uttered with bottles and papers, on the second floor of the apartment house at 181 Swan street was the scene of the murder. Thoaty mutterings from which only the word "George" could be distinguished brought the proprietress and her husband, Mrs. Anna Miller and Joseph Miller, and an acquaintance of Weiss, George Lee, 288 South Division street, running to the second floor. Inside they found the victim and Weiss on a bed. In one corner was Weiss's wooden leg, which he had removed and carefully placed upright before the slaying. Hurried examination of the woman showed she was dead, a deep gash in her neck completely severing her jugular vein. Find Liquor ln Room Weiss was in a state of coma. A doctor was summoned from Emergency Hospital and first aid was given. Captain John Driscoll of the 8outh Division street precinct. Lieutenant Alfred Gardner Patrolmen Nolan and O'Mara and Acting Chief Detectlvt Sergeant John Whalen Investigated. Available information last night indicate Weiss had been rooming at the Swan street house about a month. The dead woman lived at 186 Cedar street, but for the past week had stayed frequently with Weiss ln his room. The slaying was committed shortly before 8 o'clock. A half-pint bottle which had contained moonshine liquor was found near the bed while a drawer of a ramshackle bureau near by contained numerous empty whisky bottles. Both Have Police Records Lee, one of the trio who found them, had gone to the house to see Weiss. Before going upstairs he stopped to talk to the Millers. While doing so the groans were heard and the investigation made. The razor used in the slaying was found on the floor. The note, scrawled on a piece of cardboard, had been meticulously laid on the open magazine from which stared the lurid title. Weiss, Bertillon records show, has been arrested several times and has served one term in Auburn prison and another in the Erie County penitentiary. He was released from Auburn prison, where he served two years for robbery, in 1922, and has not been arrested since. Julia Binga is also known to police, through eight arrests for intoxi- cation and other misdemeanors. She served one 60-day and two three-day terms in the penitentiary. | BINGA, Julia (I146186)
