tion of the Technical Laboratory a .45 caliber Colt&#39;s automatic ¢ T
pistol, Government model, serial number 0133826. ibis pistol was  3 
brought to the Kansas.City Office by one B. H. Kirsch, Eight Hatch-
man for the Bankers Petrol, who resides at 1412 Central Street,
Apartment 20?, Kansas City, hiseouri. he related that the gun in
question was turned_over to him by e woman acquaintance, whose name
he did not recollect. In that connection, however, he advised that
should the Division desire he is in a position to locate this wman
for an interview. -92
According to I-.Zr. Kirsch this woman left the gun with him
in order that he might sell same to one or the members or the Bankers
Patrol. Es expressed himself as hesitant to take any action Iith _-.
reference to the weapon until it had been definitely ascertained
whether it was stolen Government property.
An examination of this pistol reveals that while it is a
Government model it is not the property or the Uni ted States, and
consequently it is being transmitted to the Division in order that
a testlbullet may be fired and compared with the ballistic specimens
I101! on file at the Division with reference to this case. It is re-
quested that this pistol be returned to the Kansas City Office after

I am transmitting herewith copies or a msmrandum pre-
pared by concerning an interview had I1 th Chief of DetectivesThomas Jilziggins, oi"&#39;the4Ka.nsae City, Missouri Police Department,concerni ~ the recent kil ing in Kansas City of Johiylazia.
You are advised that this information was volunteered
to ms by Kr. Higgins and the information is set down as he gave
it to me. I did not consider it desirable to closely question
him during this interview and there are, consequently, certain items
which should be more fully developed. It is also noted that the
spelling of certain proper names in the memorandum are phonetic and
possibly inaccurate. -- , = _ .. ,
I-Iy hesitancy to further question Chief Higgins is due
to the identification which the Division&#39;s laboratory has made of
ballistic specimens from the slaying of Iszia with ballistic speci-
mens in the Union Station massacre. I am of the opinion that the
pinformation furnished by Higgins is important to this case and 
should be fully developed. It occurs to me that hare is s strongpossibility that the individual referred to as Ar0&#39;Brien_may beidentical with liomer-..&#39;Iilson»P:X ;§ / -mL§L:L_m*,_Q

oi e "cut-in" of the money obtained by Gelates from confidence games
and gambling concessions in and around Hot Springs, Arkansas.
Special Agent Clifford is well acquainted Iith Herbert
"Dutch" Akers and states that Akere Iould double-cross Galatee ii
properly approached. He is, in the opinion of Special Agent Clifford,
unscrupulous in his dealings. _1t_ia_Blso the opinion of Special Agenj
Cligbrd that JQe_L&#39;akelin,_chief-of--Police-a~t-Hot-Spri.gs,_lnimiisa.s,F.-cl-Fhas had a "cut-_in"_gn* the _gp_e_r§t1ons oil s,ub
It is the further opinion of Special Agent Clifford
that Akere is in a position at this time to put his finger on subject
Galatas if discreetly approached.

Hr. Brantley telephoned to report something that happened IE8? &#39;
night and stated that there may be a newspaper headline on it some time today.
Hr. Brantley advised that at about ten o&#39;clock Paul Hanson called from Tulsa
and advised that the City Marshal at Jennings, Oklahomsi about 100 and somemiles from Oklahoma City and about 65 miles from Tulsa? lhsnson advised that
this Marshal told him that he had received some information from some stool
over there indicating that Floyd had been or might be there. Hr. Brantley
stated that Henson has gone out on this a d he, Brantley, sent some agentsfrom there and they got e man named Jsszimlingham; that Cunningham has .
admitted harboring Floyd within recent eeks, definite date unknown; that
been
a drug
chargeCunningham claims he bought some medicine to treat Floyd; that this has
checked and it has been found that this man did buy certain things from
store used for treating wounds; that they ere going to file e harboring
against Cunningham and are taking him to Tulsa naich is in the northern judicia
district. Hr. Brantley has instructed them to continue their investigation and
get as much evidence as they can concerning Cunningham and all others and it
looks like Cunningham actually harbored Floyd and all indications are to that
effect. Hr. Brantley stated that Cunningham admits harboring Floyd but the
date has not been fixed as yet. I asked M. Brantley if there was an reason
to believe that Floyd would be back there and Hr. Brantley stated there was
no reason to believe he would return within the immediate future; that this
place is a smell village and it is impossible to maintain surveillance.
 Br. Brantley advised that he is leaving this afternoon and will he
in Washington on Monday. I told Er. Brantley, with regard to this Flqydsituatio, that we want to get as much life and enthusiasm into this investiga- -f
tion as possible; that the Director is virtually disgusted with the facts
that we have been looking for this fellow for months and months and we do not
know whether he is in Alaska or Florida. Er. Brantley stated this is true and
he admits all of this and he wishes he knew where they were but this seems to
indicate that Floyd has been in Oklahoma recently. I told Mr. Brantley that
we sent this investigation conducted vigorously and he should do everything0

Reference is made to letter franithis office dated July 16, 1934,fad to Division letters oi August 7 and 23, 1934, referring to four test
bullets and cartridge cases transmitted to the Divisicn. Laboratory from
this office, which specimens were secured by Special Agent R. H. Simone

Lieutenant Gordon advi on August 27, 1934, that these specimenswere fired from two .736 calibe;fCo1t Super-sutclnatic pistols, serial . H
nuubers respectively being 3323 and 136. &#39; &#39;
, The pistols were recovered from the home of Jo,LsscuQ_la, alias
Joeigchool of Kansas City, Missouri, in an investigation mde by the
Kansas City Police Department in connection with the killing ct John
Qklazia which occurred on July 10, 19254.

that pistol bearing serial number 3323 was shipped by the Colt Fireanas -

and the records of that company show that it was subsequently sold to one
J. 927.§£.dams, who gave his address as Red River, New Mexico, care oi theRed River Supply Company. However, s further check by the Police

1.15. Fey further states that Daniel Corbett, who is the rental agent
for 294 Pacific St., and who lives on the second floor above these
women, told Peter Ocogan  en ex-convict!, Ibo resides at 293 Pacific
St., that these women were from the South; that they were e mother
and two daughters who had come up to take jobs in Brooklyn; however,
that these parties do not work. Mr. Fey states that neithu Coogan
nor Corbett can be trusted. He states he overheard Corbett giving
this information to Coogan.
He states that ohe of the above cars is a Ford V-8 black Sedan,
with N.Y.license plates number 9-K-5646, and that the occupants of
this car used to visit these women regularly up until the night
newspapers reported Dillinger was killed in Chicago; that up until
that time two men always sat in the rear seat of the car and a wcman
sat in the front mat with s man who, he,states, resembles Fred
Barker. He states this nun was about 32&#39; to 35 years old; 6&#39;4
tall; that the wcman always carried a anall paper mrket bag into
the house when going to call on the women and would always bring
this same narlnet bag out when leaving the house -  may have had
pistol in bag!. He stated the women always followed her out and the
two men stayed in the oar, until the evening of Dillinger&#39;s killing,
when one of the party bought a newspaper carrying the item about
Dillingers death and showed it to the two men in the rear of the
car, whereupon all. four occupants went into the apartment where the
women lived. He cannot give any description of the women or the men
who cams to call on the occupants at 2.92 Pacific Street.
The New York Office is mking investigation to determine the identity
of the parties driving the automobiles carrying license plates
as given above, and will make appropriate investigatl on to detennine
the identity of the occupants at 294 Iacific Street to ascertain
whether they are connected with the Barker-Kai-pie gang. ~
L-Ir. Fey&#39;s hens is directly across the street frcm these women and
he has offered to allow his front room to be used for purposes of
observing the parties at 294 Pacific Street, if this is deemed desirable.
The New York Office will report later on further developments on
this matter.
