Director,
Idvision of Investigation,

Washington, L. C.
Dear Sir;
Reference is made to my lett to you dated June 25,/~_I
3.1. 5%- giureztu of Qilnhesfigation
i ,_
1934, with which was enclosed a copy of a notice and petition en-
titled WILLIAM E.¥v1nLm vs. v;~:Lvn Puavls, etc., et al., the said
petition praying for the deliverance of the sun of $460.00 of the
money which was recovered from Vidler at the time of his arrest in
con ection with the Bremer kidnaping case.
I am now in receipt of a letter from Er. George F. Sullivan,
United States Attorney at St. Paul, Minnesota, with which he enclosed
a copy of a letter addressed by him to Mr. Ilight H. Green, United
5t:1tes Attorney at Chicago, Illinois, dated June 25, 1954. I 8.21
tranbtdtting herewith copies of both of these letters for your in-
formation. It will be noted in Mr. Sullivan's letter that he states
that his office is not interested in this money and makes no claim
to have it held as evidence since the information that he has
it is unidentifiable as any of the Bremer ransom money.is that
I have communicated with Mr. Leo J. Hassenauer, Assistant
United States Attorney at Chicago, and he has stated that he will re-
quest the attorneys for the petitioner to ontinue the matter over in-definitely until Speciel Agent A! A. Hlyéowl returns to Chicago.
I have informed Mr. Hassenauer that Mr Crowl was the Special
who counted this money and who has labeled and sealed it, and
order to preserve the continuity and to prevent the necessity
than one Special Agent appearing at the trial for the purpose
troducing the evidence, I desire that Mr. Crowl be the one toAgent
that in
of more
of in-
open
this money if it is determined that the $460.00 is to be returned.
Unless otherwise instructed, I will be guided by the deci-
sion of the United States Attorney as to whether thi- money will be _
returned. " t

Personal Attention
Mr.J.Edgar Hoover,
Director,
Division of Investigation,
U.S.Department of Justice,
Washington,D.C.
Dear Mr .Hoover:
I refer to your letter dated June l9,l934, in which
you make inquiry as to when it will be possible for me to be
T9l19V@¢ °T EV Bsignment at St.Paul in order to return to Wash-
in gton 0
In confirmation of my recent conversation with you
by telephone, during the coming week I am scheduled to be in
Hibbing, Minnesota, to appear before the Minnesota Peace Officers
Association and this is the only definite commitment, at present,
for which arrangements have been made.
In a recent conversation with Mr.Bremer, however, I
have obtained from him an agreement to meet with all the agents
on the special assignment here in informal session so that he can
discuss with them, orally, and portray his ideas as to the descrip-
tion of the hideout in s manner which may be more impressive than
reading of reports by the individual agents. I have discussed
this arrangement, subsequently, with Mr.Ladd and I believe it would
be possible for practically all the agents, both those assigned to
the St.Paul Office and those on special assignment, to be in St.Paul
over the week-end of June 30-July 1,1934. Following this meeting
which, frankly, I would like to attend, I know of no particular
reason which would make it necessary for me to remain here as I
find that Mr.Ladd, who had already closely studied all serials in
the Bremer and Dillinger files which had been transmitted to St.
Louis, has likewise taken time to make a personal study of the
'»i>;w1w in
Special Agent D.L.Nicholson, the-nunher one man-at the 2
St,Paul Office perhaps has a more intima e knowled8° of the_variqus I
details of these two files than anyone e se in§t.Paul and I have. s

intentionally been routing copies of all correspondence to Agent Nich-
olson so that, if circumstances warranted, he could be of inestimable
value to Mr,Ladd due to his knowledge of these cases.
I feel that perhaps the most important consideration, in the
handling of these cases at St.Paul, is to avoid assignment of the agents
to collateral issues of minor importance when, in their enthusiasm,
they learn of some contingent circumstance having no direct bearing on
the case and offering but little possibility of being helpful in the
investigation of the cases. The further investigation of these cases,
particularly the Bremer case, it appears to me, is to haw as closely
as circumstances will permit to the line of the program that has been
arranged for the systematic search for the hideout and efforts to lo-
cate the suspects. I do think that it would be advisable for someone
to drop into St.Paul for perhaps a day at a time, about once each month,
primarily for the purpose of determining that a proper program is ar-
ranged and is being consistently followed. I think, however, that such
visit might Just as well be made, let us say, to St.Paul by either Mr.
Purvis or Lir.Cowley from Chicago, and to Chicago by Mr.Ladd or Ln.
Connelley. In other words, by having someone from another office come
into the St.Paul Office or the Chicago Office for a period of one day
only it will help the Agent in Charge, or Supervisor, keep his feet
on the ground and prevent his going off on wild and unnecessary tangents.
At the present time, those working on special assignment out
of the St.Paul Office are largely absent from the office looking for
the Brener hideout as the result of telephone calls made from Madison
to all points in Southern Wisconein,covered by the St.Paul Office,
south of a line drawn from Fountain City to Green Bay,Wisconsin. We
have been able to locate twenty-three places where a siren and whistle
sound simultaneously at noon, or earlier. Investigation should be
concentrated in these places. If the investigations there are not
successful in locating the hideout, I believe that it would be wise
to next concentrate in the State of Iowa, dastern Nebraska, and South-
ern Minnesota, The same program, which is the one presently being
carried forward in Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin, could,
of.course, be followed in those territories. with the knowledge a1-
ready acquired by Special Agent in Charge Ladd and the assistance which
Special Agent Nicholson is able to offer, I feel that they will be
able to continue this or any other suggested program just as well
without my presence here, In the event my rmaining here for the week-
end of June 30-July 1,1934, for the conference with Hr.Braner and the

Joseph Calder, a real estate and insurance agent, known to
Agent for 40 years, stated he was well acquainted with the informant who was
past 40 years of age and considered very intell1gent._ That she formerly
worked in the Hays Bank at Aberdeen, Washington now defunct! and recently
had been trying to sell life insurance with no success. Recently she
returned to her father, Dan Gleeson, a widower, and was assisting in keeping
house. ' '
No crhninal record of Frentzel could be found at the office of
the Sheriff of Greys Harbor County uontesanol or at the office of the
Aberdeen Police. It appearing that informant has nothing of interest to
the Division and her letter is founded on a hysteria this matter will be
deemed closed. .'

a lon; time ago, but is not married now; that Laura Campbell is be-
tween 25 and 30 years of age; that about two or two and a half years
ago she saw Subject Harry Campbell at Tulsa, Oklahoma, shortly before

Dear Sir:
aft-r a review of the above captioned file, I havebeen informed
by Special agent J. L. Fallon that in the letter of the It. Paul
Livision office, dated a_rril 16, 19554, on page two, paragraph three,
there is a copy of a letter, apparentl? written from the Hotel
Connor, Joplin, Llissouri, dated tiunday, Februa:y 4, 1934, add"essed
to hear l-Iyrtle. The substance of this letter advised that he saw
uelloss.m:_;er;t Fallon informs me he is well acquainted with AMrey.l/amass,
who was formerly a United States deputy marshal at Tulsa, 92Oklahom,
with headguzrters at Vinita ,-Oklahorfa, which is practically thirty
eiqht to fifty miles from Joplin, Ijissouri; further, that I71. Delloss
is well acquainted with the Barker liarpis gang and might be able to give
some very definite information as to their whereabouts.
Agent Fallon, on a previous occasion, informed me t Earl ardner,
of the City of Tulsa Police Department, and 1Tac_ ohzznn, the
.~;heriii"s office at Tulsa, Oklahoma, might be a e to give some
excellent information as to the Barker-liarpis gang.

TO THE JUDGES OF THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE
UNITED STATES FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS,
Gentlemen:
The undersigned, being the committee to whom was referred
the letter from the Assistant to the Attorney General of the
United States to Judge Wilkerson, wherein the attention of the
judges was called to the proceedings before United States
Commissioner Walker in the McLaughlin cases, beg leave to report
as follows:
First. One of the matters of which complaint was made in
said letter was the allowance by the Commissioner of alleged
improper cross-examination. We have examined the transcripts of
the proceedings in the cases referred to, which were filed as part
of the returns to writs of certiorari issued in said cases, and ~
upon such examination find that the Commissioner was exceedingly
careful in his rulings on evidence, and, in our opinion, properly
limited the cross-examination of witnesses who identified the _
defendants.
Sscond. The second matter of which complaint was wade
was unnecessary delay of the proceedings. We have looked into
that matter, and do not believe that there was unreasonable delay,
or any delay which was not reasonably necessary to the due and
orderly administration of Justice.
Third. The other matter of vhich complaint was made was
the alleged intoxication of one of the attorneys who appeared for
one or more of the defendants. The transcripts above referred to,
which we have examined, indicate that the defendant or defendants
in question were represented by other couseias well as by the
attorney who is said to have been intoxicated. Accordingly, we
assume that the rights of the defendants were not prejudiced.
We do not find in the transcripts any protests by counsel for the
Government, and therefore assume that the rights of the Government
were not prejudiced by the intoxication of the attorney in question,
if he was intoxicated.
In conclusion, your committee has to report that no
facts have come to its attention which in the opinion of the
committee warrants any disciplinary action by the judges.

sister, Mildred Davis, and for that reason Mr. Bdggs could identify Volney
Davis at sight. Mr. Biggs further stated that John Iilliams is absent for
considerable periods of time during which he is understood to be working for
some oil company in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and sending money by mail to his wife at

she has stated that her brother in Oklahoma furnished her money from time to
time and also furnished money to her parents, She received some money about
Christmas, 1933, but has received very little money since that time and has
indicated that this is due to the fact that her brother has not had very
much employment during that time, Mr. Hodgden further stated that shortly
after_the Davis family came to this community a Chevrolet Coach, about 1932
model, with Oklahoma license tags, suddenly appeared in the possession of
Mildred Davis, who stated that the car was given to her by her brother, who
worked in Tulsa, Oklahoma, name of employer not being stated. Sometime
during the preceding week Mildred Davis was married to John Harness, who
makes his home with his mother, Mrs. Ethel Wyatt and his grandfather, Isaac

Haworth, Bouts #2, Stella, Missouri. !his family is regarded ss being_.
somewhat shiftless and it is not deeed sdvisbls to attempt to secue I
information from that source st this time. Ir. Hodgdsn advised, however,
that Lee Collier, the Postmaster at Stella, Missouri, and Charlie Hinton,
the carrier on Bouts I2, Stella, Missouri, ere both reliable and are in

difficulty in making an identification as Volney Davis bears a very close
resemblance to his sister Mildred, "

home of John Harness and would be e reliable source of information.
Ihile endeavoring to locate the residence of Al Atkinson,
Constable Box made inquiry st the home of John Harness and et that time r
observed two strange young men in the house, neither of these parties,
however, resebled photograph of Volney Davis, Hr. Box ale: noted that the
Chevrolet Coach,_1932 Model, wi: black body and wire wheels, which was
in the yard bears l934 Missouri licese #575-592. Ibis presusbly is the
car which Mildred Davis has been using and which she has stated was given
to her by her brother in Oklahoma. Inquiry of the office of the Secretary
of State, Kansas City, Missouri, disclosed that office has no record of

secretary of State, Jefferson City, Missouri, in order to obtain full
information concerning the name of the party to whom this license was

visit much in the home of John Harness, but Mr. Atkinson's grandson, Wincel
Poague, is frequently around the Harness home. Wincel was questioned and
stated that about one week ego two strange young men appeared at the Harnee
hone in a car bearing Arkansas license plates and he understood that these
men were cousins of John Harness, Upon seeing photograph of Volney Davis,

Division office in order that he might promptly report any information of

Dear Sir,
With ref ence to your letter of June 29th, 1934, re-
que;tin; that an estima be obtained on the cost of manufacturing
an additional supply o wall paper #515 from Sears, Roebuck & Company,
please be advised that tr. H. A. Hauptle, Department 653, Sears, Roebuck
& Company, 1017 South Homan avenue, Chicago, Illinois, today advised
Special Ajent J. J. Metcelfe of this Office as follows.
The cost of manufacturing 1931 wall paper #515 would
be from $40.00 to $50.00 for 200 rolls of 8 yards each, or a total
quantity of 16;; yards. This cost includes everything such as labor,
overhead and materials, and is what is termed a "sampling charge,"
or in other words, a charge for producing samples. The "sampling
charge" is the most reasonable charge available at Sears, Roebuck &
Company.
The cost is figured on a basis of $10.00 per hour and
it is estimated that four hours or slightly more would be required to
manufacture 200 rolls, thich is the minimum quantity that could be
ordered under the circumstances. After 200 rolls have been manufactured,
the cost of this paper would be approximately 6¢ per roll and could be
ordered in any quantity. Mr. Hauptle stated that he is confident that
the cost of producing 200 rolls mould not exceed $50.00.
Mr. Hauptle further advised that the particular design
and the necessary materials for the manufacture of 1931 wall paper #515
8T6_tlll availatle at Sears, Roebuck & Company, and that the identical
paper and colors could be produced. He also stated that this particular
design of'tal1 pcpzr is not available at any other place_than_§§ars

City officials, as it is noted some confusion has been made in the motor 1'
number, as to the second digit. This motor nuber has not been r981lt°T°5_
in Missouri. _ _l _A
Hr. Dan Btler, in charge of the Lutmobile Registration
'Records, Springfield, Illinois, advised the St. Louis'Dffice by long dis-
tance telephone that his records do not contain a registration for this
automobile in the year 1928; that this ear was registered in Illinois in
1929 under license {765027 by Era. Alice Carter, 109a Collinsville Axsnue,
East St. Louis, Illinois; that in 1930 this same automobile was registered
by Hrs. Carter, who gave the same address, under license f628l58, issued
February 6, 1930; that in 1931 this automobile was registered by Mrs.
Carter, who gave the same residence address, under license #l,OC5,5l3,
issued March 25, 1931; that in 1932 this automobile was not registered in
Illinois; that in 1933 Hrs. Carter secured Illinois license tags for this
car, #l,229,l9l, issued September 8, 1933, which were six months tags
for the price of $6.00. On the 1933 applicaticn'fcr license, Mrs. Carter
stated that this automobile was not registered in Illinois in 1952 and on
this application, she gave her address as General Delivery Dupo, St. Clair
County. On this same application, Ere. Carter stated that this automobile
w-s bcurht on July 14, 193? frcm the Schnure Enter Company in St. Iouia
and she gave the motor number as 2177659. This will
to the second dieit in the motor number, which error
made by Lbs. Carter when she put the license number on thespplication" explain the error ll
appears to have been
blank in 1933; Kr. Butler stated that in 1934 Mrs. Carter registered this
automobile under Illinois license #l,l45,222, issued April 12, 193$. 0 __
that application Mrs. Carter gave the same residence, 109a Collinsville '
Avenue, Eaat St. Louis, Illinois, and again made thepame error in the
motor number, due to the fact that erroneous motor number 177639! appears
on the certificate of registration. The Illinois Sta
not reflect that this automobile has been transferredte License Records dc
by Hrs. Carter.
The writer communicated with the Detective Bureau, Police
Department, East St. Louis, Illinois, and was advised
they are well acéuainted with ns Alice Carter, whose
very close to the Pclice Station. They informed that
waitress and is employed in the Thisser Restaurant inby the office that
residence address is
Mrs. Carter is a union
the two hundred block
on Collinsville Avenue, where she has worked for the past two yearsiand '
before that she worked at the Fairmount Bace Track, near East St--Louis,
They infonmed that_sha is a tall blond, about 35 yeers'of age, ugly, has -~
large bcnes, and is shard worker who has never been in any trouble. The
officers further infonmed that they are personally aware of the fact that
Mrs. Carter, who apparently does not have any husband
has maa a number of trips to St. Clair County, whereat the present time,
she has a sweetheart,
and that she stated a restsrant for her gentleman friend somewhere in
thst ccrntv. ?is will probably account for Hrs. Carter having give; her
a-;re s as G>:e:c_ Delivery Dupe, Illinois, in 1933»

Mrs. Carter and looked at the license number and later celled the ~
Iriter by telephone and reed off the license, which he gave as 1,145,222.
