POLICE LOCATE 1 LAIR OF FIEND Where to Hunt (Continued lion page 1) yesterday Identified Hickman positively as the robbir. Locate Lair. Although they were unable to run to earth the man whom they accuse of being "The Fox" in the atrocious murder case, the police yesterday definitely lo cated his lair, which he bad occupied during the diys that tittle Marian was kidnaped and nntll Sunday morning, several ' hours after the child's dlsmem bered body had been exchanged for her father's $1500. ' . By finger print and photo graph identification the police have determined that during those days, Hickman' occupied an apartment nnder the name of Donald Evans. Led by an iden tification mark found on a towel left with the body of the slain child, a hundred police officers descended npon the apartment nrase Sunday. Failed To Return. ' According to the landlady .Mis. Ethel Broderick, soon after the raid Hickman strolled by her In a hallway, dropped a ca sual remark and left tbe build ing. He did not return. But t he "of fleers, having identified Hickman as the hunted "Fox" returned to his apartment yes terday. There they found' the very necktie which Hickman had worn while his picture was taken for police Identification last summer at the time of his arrest on for gery charges. It wa,s that ar rest which resulted In his, dis charge from the bank of which Parker la an officer and which is believed to have provided the vengeance motive which . drove Hickman to the fiendish crime of which he is accused. On this second, more minute search, the officers found stains which, they ordered analyxed to determine whether they might have been caused by the slaying of little Marian In that apart ment. They also found a shirt bearing tbe initials H. B. O. Tbe name H. B. Gerber bad been found inked in tbe neckband of a piece of a shirt used to tie the bundle that was part of the slain school girl's body. Thread Located. Articles found there had come from Kansas City, the former home of Hickman. A crudely made pair of mittens was dis covered. They were made of - black oilcloth and the thread , with which they had been stitch ed was said by the officers to be the same as that with which " little Marian's eyelids had been " pierced. The mittens, according L to the officers, might hive been 1 m ten. netting a winner's and los er har of the mouey, amount ing to something like 110.000 (!'

The other side of the dual character presented by tbe po lice investigations wis presented by the boy's Sunday school teach er and the woman at whose boarding house he lived for some time. "The Hickman boy seemed a gentleman," slid Pervy Peek, his Sunday school teacher. "He had occasional fits of melan cholia, though." Orderly and Quiet. "He was such a neat, quiet, orderly boy," declared Mrs. M. C. Driskel. the manager of the boarding house in Alhambra. a suburb, where Hickman lived for four months. "He went to church and Sun day school. He never stayed out late at night. He was always carefully groomed, extremely po lite, used good grammar and oth erwise was a model boy."

There is no doubt but that Dame Fortune had much to do with shaping the career of Roger Peckinpaugh, newly-appointed manager of the Cleve land Indians. An indignation meeting h 'Id by the New York Yankees, in which Peck, being entirely ignor ant of the event, played no part, caused his passing from the New York Americans at a lima when he wa3 rated the most valuable shortstop in tbe American Leag ue. One of the two Pullmans en gaged to haul the Yankees from New York to St. Louis offered the setting for the Yankees to give "vent to their feelings, give Peckinpaugh the college yell and bring crepe on Miller Hugglns. then managing tbe Yankees. That was during tbe season of 1921. Despite the fact that New York won the pennant that sea son, all was not well within the ranks of the Yankees. There seemed to be a lack of discipline and few of the players seemed to have the proper respect for Man ager Hugglns. Peckinpaugh was one of those who did. So tense was the feeling against Hugglns that a group of players, more than half of the squad, met in tbe. Pullman, other than tbe one in which Peckinpaugh haf his berth, to take action to over throw the Hugglns dynasty, The consensus of the red shirts was that Hugglns must go and that Peckinpaugh should succeed him. It was decided that on the return of tha Yankees to New York, the matter would he taken up with Colonel Jake Ruppcrt. owner of the club, and if he didn't accede to their wishes the team would go out on a strike. It is just possible thut Mime of the boys might have been under a stimulating Influence other than aqua. pura. but. re gardless, such action was taken. As is always tho ra' the af fair, supposed to be kept a deep, dark secret, leaked out. Instead of Hugglns walking the planki Peckinpaugh. who had no part in the Insurrection, and who was in nocent of the entire affair, wai the victim. , Without going Into the if and whys of the case, Colonel Jakw Iluppett decided -on quiek action, Although he had nothing against PecklnrauKh. he was strong fo' Hugglns and figured if IlngKlns was o succeed, it was be.it that Peckinpaugh should go. It was this state of affilrs that caused New York to enter into three-cornered trade that brought Scott of Boston to New York and sent Peck to Washington. it wasn't a bad break for Perk at that, since he shared In two world championships In Washing- THE ORPHEUS TODAY A Tempest of Speed and Thrills!
