Kansas City Michael Katz and Mrs. Nell Donnelly Cases Among Most Prominent ‘This fs the last of a series of four articles dealing with kidnap- ‘ing in the United States. By BRUCE CATTON Nowhere has the menace of the ‘well-organized racket of kidnaping been more evident in the past year than in Missouri's two leading cities, St. Louis and Kansas City. Kansas City, perhaps, has furnished the more spectacular cases of the two —and St. Louis is generally believed | to have furnished the more danger- ous kidnapers. The loose but effective organiza- tion by which little groups of desper- adoes in widely-separated cities have transformed kidnaping into a racket of national ramifications seems to have one of its most effective centers in St. Louis. A good many of the| crimes that have stirred Kansas City during the last few months are be- Neved to have been the work of St. Louis hoodlums. Kansas City police estimate that kidnapers have collected fully half a million dollars in that city within re- cent years. As has been the case elsewhere, the bulk of these cases are cases in which underworld characters have been the victims. Almost everywhere, the racketeers have started their opera- tions cautiously, victimizing men who they knew would never complain to the police—gamblers, vice syndicate and St. Louis Prove Hotheds For Kidnaping Ring Plots OR SEA OPINED TL THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 9, 1932 | ouT OUR WAY The boy who was kidnaped was young Adolphus Busch Orthwein, grandson of August A. Busch, of the Anheuser-Busch brewing concern. He was abducted by a negro who seems |to have been playing a lone hand. A {newspaper reporter also brought about his release, and the negro was caught and sentenced to:10 years in prison. Alex Berg, -rich St. Louis fur mer- chant, was kidnaped while he was driving his car along one of the most heavily-traveled streets of the city. He was held captive for five days, while his captors, after demanding | $65,000 in ransom money, scaled their price to a flat $50,000. He eventually was released, and his relatives insist no money was paid. So menacing has the kidnaping racket grown that the St. Louis Cham- ber of Commerce not long ago con- ducted a survey of it, and wound up by recommending strict federal laws to cover the crime. The published findings of their investigators begin | with the following sentences: NEW RACKET “Kidnaping is the feature crime of | today, Big business in the underworld | has turned from bank robbery, train: robbery, hi-jacking and the spectacu- | lar crimes of the past to kidnaping. | Kidnaping offers high returns with little risk—escape and immunity from | prosecution are usually a matter of merely crossing a state boundary.’ The survey covered a total of 285 kidnaping cases in cities all over the} United States. In these cases, 13 of the victims) were murdered. In 46 cases the vic- | tims were transported across state | lines. In 70 cases the kidnapers were | THIS 15 TH PLACE, THAT DOGGONE WORRY WARTS TLL NEVER DOPE HIM OUT.

SPREAD OUT | Recently, however, in Kansas City | ‘as in Detroit and Chicago, they have | broadened .their activities to include | law-abiding citizens, people of wealth | and prominence. i One of the most startling cases in| Kansas City was the kidnaping of Michael Katz, head of the city’s larg- est di firm. Katz was driving alone to his office | ne morning when a large car over- | took him and forced his roadster to | the curb. Four men jumped out and hustled him into their machine. _ ‘There they sealed his eyes shut with ; adhesive tape, hurried him far out into the country and imprisoned him | in a lonely house, while one of the} gang telephoned to Louis Rose, a well- | known “man about town,” ordering | him to act as go-between and to get | from Katz's relatives, for the kidnap- i ers, the sum of $100,000. . Rose got in touch with Isaac Katz, | the victim's brother, who gave him the money. Rese went to a designat- ed spot and paid it over; an hour later Michael Katz, unharmed, wa‘ released in a Kansas City park. with | a warning that he would be killed if he ever helped prosecute his abduc- | tors. TRACE BILLS bd Isaac Katz had had the fore- thought to have the ransom bills marked, and a little later some of the money was traced to Jack Nigro and | “Goggle-eyed” Leonard, of the notor-: fous Egan's Rats gang of St. Louis. ‘They were arrested. Michael Katz, however, at first re- fused even to go to the police station to try to identify them. When he was finally persuaded to do so he said that he “couldn’t be sure” they w members of the gang, and they were; freed. It was considered an open secret that fear of reprisal kept Katz from testifying. More recent was the kidnaping of Mrs, Nell Quinlan Donnelly, founder and head of a prosperous garment- manufacturing company. This case has one or two unusual and instruc- | tive angles. i Mrs. Donnelly was kidnaped as she drove home from her office one night. | and was locked up in a cabin 15 miles ; out of Kansas City for 42 hours, while | @ note was sent to her husband and | her lawyers demanding $75,000 and) announcing that she would be killed | if payment were not made. 1 OUTSIDERS! | Now Mrs. Donnelly was prominent | in a political faction which was pow-/| erful in the Italian section of the city. | And after a little while, Kansas City) underworld leaders — who protested indignantly to the police that “some j rank outsiders pulled this job’—let # be known that the underworld it-! self would go after the kidnapers if | she were not returned unharmed. | That night she was released on a} country road near the city. | Three men and a woman were ar-; rested in this case. One man was! tried and the jury disagreed; the oth- | ers await trial. | Harry Rothman operated a profit- able booze-running line in and about ; Kansas City. Kidnapers took him and tried to force him to pay tribute. He refused. One day his bullet-riddied | body was found in the woods in a Kansas City suburb. i The police said they believed his death was meant chiefly as a warn- ing to other underworld figures that | the kidnaping ring means business. Freddie Strauss, former gambler, made a@ fortune by speculation in Ok- | lJahoma oil lands. He was seized as | he walked down a Kansas City street | and taken to a house on the edge of town where the gangsters tortured him by tearing off bits of his flesh When he was unable to stand this any longer, he consented to telephone and arrange for the payment of $50,- 000, after which he was released. Guy Givens, an influential under- world figure, had to pay the kidnap- ers heavily. He was captured by a gang that came down from Chicago, and before he was turned loose he not to turn over a good deal of caught. The report asserts: “Kidnaping cases ordinarily involve a gang of eight to 12 men. Frequently the actual abduction is perpetrated by criminals brought from other cities, to render their identification difficult. The victim is then transported to an- | other state to delay and hamper the, process of detection and capture,| which permits the kidnapers to hold} their victim safely and negotiate for | ransom.” THE END. Mother and Children Given Help in Fargo) Fargo, N. D., March 9.—()—Faced | with the possibility of being removed | from the county as paupers, a mother and two children are being given, temporary aid in Fargo after being | discovered Sunday in a sad state, | without food or fuel. | Upon investigation, it was learned that the three came to Fargo from alley City, where they had resided | for a number of years.

Temple, state's attorney, said Tuesday that’ ‘steps are to be | taken to determine the legal residence of the family and that possibly they will be returned to Barnes county.

D., March 9.—()— Russell Boesberg of Mobridge, Mil- waukee railway conductor, was killed at his home Tuesday night when a gun held by his 15-year-old son dis- charged accidentally, the charge striking Boesberg.
