BARE DETAILS
IM0WITZ KILLING
As the result of secret hearings
held during the past month before
United States Commissioner Alexan
der Gilchrist, in the joint bankruptcy
proceedings instituted against "Nicky"
Arnstein, fugitive from justice, and
David M. Sullivan, head of the brok
erage house of Sullivan & Co., of New
York and Washington, D. C, it has
developed that associates of Arnstein
and "Nicky" Cohen, another fugitive,
were directly concerned with the
murder of Benjamin Binkowitz, which
occurred last August on the Post road
