Deer Sir:
In confirmation of my telegram to the Division dated October
25, 1954, in the above case, attention is directed to my letter to the
New Orleans office under date of September 13, 1934, wherein certain
information is furnished concerning the possible location of Richard T.
OGalatas at New Orleans. This information was received from the Chatta-
nooga police, through one of their informants, on September 15th, and
on the same date it was transmitted to the New Orleans office.
I discussed this matter over the telephone with Special Agent
D. Y5. klagee, who stated that it is probable that had this lead been
developed previous to receipt of information furnished to the New Orleans
office through an informant of the U. S. Attorney at New Orleans, that
it undoubtedly would have resulted in the location and apprehension of
hire and I'|'lI'Be Galatae.
I am now in receipt-of a letter frcm Mr. W. H ef
of Detectives, Chattanooga, Tennessee, advising that
signal 1-iountain, Tennessee, was the infomant who furn e atts
nooga police with the nation which I transmitted to the Nashvilleoffice, and that bothand the Chattanooga police are interested

Dear Sir: V h;7[>
.d v Orleans, Le. was reading a LibertyLngaz ne and fee s t at he has seen one Richard Tellmen Galstas
alias Dickosherdian who is wanted in connection with the Kansas
City murder as advertised in the Liberty.
Young-says e nan using name of E. W.0Lee who has
stopped at the Carroll Apartment Hotel, the Ponehstrain Hotel and
at 406 Stearns Building, New Orleans resembles the photo of Galatas
as given in the Liberty. Says Lee is representing some psdnt concern
out of Loe Angeles.
The photo of Gelatas in the Liberty does in no way com-
pare with the photo of subject sent out by your department dated
August l, 1933.
This infonnation passed on to your department as one
can never tell until proper investigation has been made.
Respectfully
Signed! E. R. Hyatt
Acting Chief of Detectives.

Dear Si r:
Yiith reference t letter of the 13th inst. relativeto name and address of young who gave information as to Galatas
alias eridan as suspect being New Orleans, La., beg to adviseyoungbiao made report did not want his name used and therefore
did not ge his name and address, only that of his father. boy
making report was not the brother that actually saw the suspec , ut
another brother had told him and he said this brother was now in Florida
but would not give his address.
It seems that this hofy"s father who is in New Orleans, La
and the suspect in question visit with each other and they are afraid
the father might be lured into a trap if this should be the prisoner in
qsesti on.
Resp ec tfully

Hr. R. B. Nathan telephoned and advised that two or three '
days ago, on Mr. Cowley's instructions, they brought up to the office
the supposed leaders of the Lazia outfit in §ansas City and told them
definitely how we stood and asked them to tell us if the got anyinformation; that today they received a call from Tonykizzo; that Andersen
and Trainor talked to him at his home and Charlieyorolla was there at the
time; that Corolla told the agents that yesterday somebody approached him
and told him that Floyd wanted to make an appointment to see him down in_
,Eighits and_§alked about comingIHto_Kan§g§_§ity; that this person's
name is Chapman and is supposed to represent an attorney named Brady -
in Kansas City, Kansas or Oklahoma City; that Corolla stated he was willing4}e meet Floyd and show us where he was; that he made another appointment with
Chapman and met him at the Democratic Club; that later Corolla called the
agents and stated that he had arranged with this fellow tgigo to ichita
tomorrow to a hotel there} that he will then tell us about it and we will
place Floyd on the spd at that time. Igtold r. Nathan that this sounds~
good an asked if he has enough men. Mr. Nathan stated that he was figuring
on taking about four men. I told Mr. Nathan that I did not think we should
have anybody in it outside of our own men. Mr. Nathan stated that Wichita
has a pretty good police force and it might be a good idea to get in touch
with the Chief of Detectives and tell them that they have something hot on
so that they will lay off. I told Mr. Nathan that this was 0.K. Mr. Nathan
stated that he will ask the Chief of Detectives to stand by. I told Mr.
Nathan that he should take an extra man or two. Hr. Nathan stated that hewill take Andersen, Trainer, Reed, dimly-ad himself. I told Mr. Nathan
to take plenty of men and plenty of artil ry. Mr. Nathan stated that they
will have somebody in the office but nobody much.

Dear Sir:
O
RE: CHARLES ARTHUR "PRETTY BOY FLOYD, with
aliases, ET AL
CONSPIRACY T0 DELIVER FEDERAL PRISONER
Reference is made to the Division's letter of October 24,
1934, with reference to the identity of "slivers" McBride, which
was also mentioned in letter from the Division d ed September 21,
1954 . ,9 ho
Please be advised that the McBride whose criminal record
was furnished with your letter of September 21st is evidently
identical with the party now residing at Kansas City, Missouri.
This individual was interviewed by Special Agent Trainor, who
will identify the photograph.
This office is leaving to the discretion of the Division
any action which seems desirable with reference to notifying State
authorities regarding the location of McBride-

' Government would be interested unless it was the kidnaping of the sheriff
at Bolivar, Missouri. In this connection Richetti stated that he and
Charles Arthur Floyd were in a garage at Bolivar, Missouri, when Sheriff
Killingsworth of Bcliverappeared a.nd_ that he and Floyd covered SheriffKillingsworthwith guns and forced him to accompany them to Ines Sus|nit,'?i"

A After securing the information relative to the identification

composed of Special Agent IL B, Purvis and Agents D. E. Hell, W. E.
Hopto and S. K. Boxes began patrolling Eighway'No. 7 and adjoining .
roads in an effort to locate the fugitive. At about 5:00 P,M, this '4
squad met an_§§§i,Liverpool,_Qhio,~Polics_ner, which was occupied by *
Chief of Police Hugh I. Hcbernott, Herman_H. Roth, Chester C. Smith,
and Glen C. Hontgomry. these'two cars Joined forces following a f
ocnfersnce between special Agent in Charge Purvie and Chief HbDermott,
the reason for operating together being_that the territory to be,
covered was well known to the men in the Police oar; *!he various »
men occupying these two cars were armed with revolvers, two ehot_guns,
at 4:10 P.H, these two care were proceeding in a southerly
direction on Spruceville road, approximately two miles south of -
.Clarkson, Ohio, when a farm home, which was later learned to be the.j .
residence of He, Ellen Conkle, was approached, Situated approzinately,
50 yards from the road, which was a narrow country road, was a corn
crib, This_corn crib was about 25 yards north of the dwelling. yin
autmobile containing two ween, a men in farm clothes and a second
men wearing a navy blue suit and no hat, was seen to back away-from v
a position behind the corn crib." he the Agents and Police Officers T
had been questioning everyone with whom they came in contact for pee-_
sible information_ss_to Subject Floyd, the two care stopped for the '
purpose of interrogating these people. g - _
The cars had no sooner stopped than the automobile which had '
backed away from the corn crib was driven to its former poeitio behind_
the earn crib, j_man was seen to leave this car and one glance at him .
was sufficient to indicate that he was Subject Floyd. he wore_a net?
blue suit, did not heve_on a hat, and had an sutonatic pistol in his; .
right hand."~-_ M-_;-.3 -- ~ '1

under his belt on his left side. AB soon as agents reached him, '-he
said, "I'm done for, you've hit me twice". 'He was asked his name and

He was then aekedto do the decent thing and tell what he knew about the -

if it were not true that he, Adam Richetti, and Verne Miller had done B119
shooting at the Union Station, to which he replied,_ I ain't telling you

appeared to lapse into a condition of semi-consciousness. hL
