terview given to a local paper denies
l hut he took the odd lltNJU with which

package, and states that his object in
going to ltridgcport, Conn., was to ob
tain employment on one of the oyster
Imats of the iridgcioit fleet, but that
the plan wa frustrated by the fact that
the boat are not working on account
of some laWr trouble.
He indignantly denied that he fur
nished a Ilridgi'iort woman money to
rent a flat, saying that he spent hi
time in reading about and listening to
comment on the robliery instead of
rovsterng around the tenderlon dstrict.
II shipped iMO.iioo in suit case to
Bristol, he said in care of the Expres
Company, figuring on that as the most
unlikely place the detectives would
search and when questioned a to the
ll.iMK) still missing he evaded a reply
by railing against the fate which led to
the discovery of the W0,000.

he put it. Eisenman, to whom he en
trusted a bundle containin $0500 also
came in for a scoring from Cunliffe, who
concluded, "well they cant hang me."
For the first day in 20 yeare Cun
liffe has not smoked a cigarette and he
is very nervous tonight. The rules of
Allegheny County jail forbid the ue of
cigarettes.
