KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON January IS, 103(1 I - IPTII'S 1 115 OPEN FINAL FIGHT (Continued From Paso One) ' "might" have Information loading to some of the ransom' money. Prisoner Hiipplird Detail Lamb said Colonel H. Norman Bchwarikopf, head of the stale police, wrote Flnnlgan two days later, and asked that he supply additional details, so the matter could be Investigated, ?but no re ply was roceived. The Chicago attorney had first reported the matter to the bureau of investigation of the department of Justice In New York and Wash ington, Lamb eald. Flnnlgan got the Information, he explained, from a prisoner In a Chicago Jail, who said' his con science had been torturing him. The prisoner asserted, Flnnlgan eald, that he paid 12.000 toward purchasing ransom bills at 40 cents on the dollar, but he did not get. the money' because he could not raise tbe rest of the price before bis own arrest on a worthless check charge. Flnnlgan decided to come here after Governor Hoffman said he was Interested. On arriving at the Camden. N. J., airport, the lawyer talked by telephone with C. Lloyd Fisher, chief of Haupt mann' counsel. Anna Offers Prayers Fisher said any new evidence was welcome, but he added: "I'd rather see the ransom money." Hoffman, Informed ot the law yer's arrival, said: "It's always been my under atandlng that all the money was recovered." While lawyers drafted their last minute plans, Anna Hauptmann knelt In the Trinity Lutheran church here and, scarcely noticed, prayed that the life of her hus band be spared.' We will fight on,"' she said. "to tbe end of the road." Governor Hoffman, who once visited Hauptmann In the death cell, and who has said he does not believe Hauptmann's execution will solve the Lindbergh case, was asked In New York yesterday it he Intended to halt the execution, set for 8 p. m., Friday. "I don't yet know what I am going to do about it," he said. He reiterated that there were "plenty of precedents" under the New Jersey 80-day reprieve. Governor's Power Discussed There were reports that the governor told the court of par dons he could, If he desired, rc priove Hauptiuailn for as long as he (the governor) held office, but from other, sunroof close to the court those reports were denied. Attorney (lunornl David T. Wll enti, who directed the prosecu tion ot Hnuptniann, Indicated to day that If the governor should grant a reprieve ho would, not challenge its legality. Jnfxln at Sea No word has been roceived from Dr. John F. Condon, the "Jafsle" of the ransom negotia tion, who sailed Friday night on a southern cruise. He will land at Cristobal, c. Z.. on the day set for HuuptniaiinV execution. Governor Hoffman declared that !.. saying Saturday he bc- lleved Dr. Condon "should have been taken into custody for ques tioning," he was merely express ing an opinion. Saturday s announcement re garding Condon, made through the governor's press aide, William S. Conklin, was that the governor would order" the attorney gen eral to have Condon taken Into custody. On Sunday in New York the governor &afd he meant that Condon "should have been taken Into custody for questioning." r deny that I ordered any ot- flclnl to request the arrest of Con don." he said. The governor explained, how ever, that he believed the aged Bronx schoolmaster should have been questioned becanse of his statement that he had been offer ed $250,000 to change his testi mony and because of his, letter to the New York Times indicating that more than one pen-on was guilty.

There is some belief that It would be Clifton Richmond, present police judge. There has also been talk that Richmond might run for county clerk.
