Arr-nForcr) matl tribune. mt;dfoki. oregon. ftjedat. February is. inns. PAGE THREE FEDERAL AGENTS LINDBERGH CASE (Continued from page one.) X ftould have made It months ago and saved my wife and child all this worry. "I told everything, on my word of hdnor. That Is, I mean I have not tried to cover up anybody." But the New York Dally News said in a copyright article today that not tmly were two men Involved in the $50,000 ransom fraud Hauptmann i was Identified as the actual recipi ent but that police knew the lden- tlty of the second and sought to trap him. This man, the News said, was the one who hid his face with a hand kerchief and peered into Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh's automobile while the father of the slain baby awaited his ransom emissary, Dr. J. P. Condon. The mystery man moved on and dropped his handkerchief, ap parently as a signal to the ransom collector. Initial efforts to reach District At torney Foley of the Bronx and other officers for confirmation of the ar ticle were fruitless. Police Close Ftle At New York police headquarters, however, the Lindbergh file, filling four large cabinets, was closed and stored away In the basement. Hauptmann. volubly protesting his innocence, told newspapermen: "If I have to go to the electric chair. I go like a man." Today was his last In the county Jail. From there he goes to the state prison at Trenton, where a cell In the death house has been prepared for him. To his attorneys he delegated the ta?k of obtaining funds for an ap peal. They questioned him In vain hoping to learn of friends or frater nal organizations which might help him, and then expressed hope the public would aid. $4 Only Possession Hauptmann said two $2 bills were all the money he had had since his arrest. They came from an uniden tified contributor. The prisoner said he turned them over to his wife, Anna, "because she needed them." Edward J. Reilly, chief of defense counsel, estimated the cost of car rying the fight through higher courts at i 5. 000. In a death conviction, however, the defense Is permitted to ask the court to have the county pay legal costs. Including preparation of the record. Egbert Rosecrant. assistant defense counsel, said such an order probably would be sought next week. The financing of other appeal ex penses was what worried the defense j attorneys. Reilly estimated, the' amount needed at W500 and C Fisher fixed It at 11. 000. Left Worn Out Hauptmann, pale and restless, paced his brightly lighted cell while he talked. The trial had left htm worn out, he said. But he felt "all right." "Absolutely, I am innocent," he said. "Otherwise I would have said so in the beginning. If they were to come to me in my cell .now and say, 'you would go free If you would tell the whole truth.' I would say, I told you everything I know on the witness stand'." 'The state," he complained, "tried to show only the bad things about me. the state wants to take my life for nothing." The most ridiculous thing in the whole mal," he declared, "was the board In the attic. Wiiy should I go up In the attic for a board when I had a whole pile of lumber in my garage?" State witnesses testified that an upright in the kidnaper's home-made ladder once had been part of the flooring in Hauptmann's attic. Llndy's Influence Felt Hauptmenn was asked whether he thought the presence of Colonel Lindbergh had any influence on the Jury. . "Naturally," he replied. - The New York News in its article said the second man's part in the crime "was not mentioned at the Hauptmann trial because of the anx lety of the prosecution that nothing should be allowed to becloud the is sue of the ex -German machine gun ner's guilt." "But," it continued, "the fact that Hauptmann had an accomplice has long been known to the department of Justice, the New York police and District Attorney Foley of the Bronx. "The handkerchief was recovered from the street and chemical analysis of the linen revealed that the man who had carried It was a sufferer from sinus infection. "Hauptmann denied that either he or anyone he knew was so afflicted." Lincoln s Birthday High Spot in Trade for Week NEW YORK. Feb. .5.
