Abraham Wilenski today confessed that he was guilty of the death of Jacob Sandlaufer, shot to death last Tuesday in the sports club of the Poale Zion. Wilenski, who was seriously wounded, declared that the accident resulted from his careless handling of a loaded revolver.

At first Wilenski denied all knowledge of the affair. Police sealed the premises of the sport club, but later permitted the club to reopen. Wilenski is under arrest in a hospital where he is recovering from his wound.
