Mr. Runge stopped at the Swanke residence shortly before 8 o'clock to take him to a Knights of Columbus meeting to be held that evening.

READY | POR FINISH FIGHT Says He ‘Went Down With Ship’ When Depression Proved Too Much for Him ; Chicago, May 14.—(7)—From a room in St. Luke’s hospital Samuel Insull has sent his version of the col- lapse of his utilities empire. “I went down with my ship,” he said. “The depression was too much for me. You will be convinced that although my judgment was bad, I was | not dishonest.” | The 74-year-old ex-financier who lonce had $200,000,000, was talking at the invitation of sound motion pic- {ture men. They visited Insull in the | hospital where he is recuperating from the strain of his recent conflict with federal authorities, who allege he used the mails to defraud and vio- lated the national bankruptcy law. “I have been fighting since boy- hood,” he said. “When I first arrived in this country 53 years ago all I had in the world was $200 and the prom- ise of a job as secretary to Mr. Thomas A. Edison. Today I've got the biggest battle of my life on my hands and I’m ready for it.” While Insull was talking, the gov- ernment, through United States Dis- trict Attorney Dwight H. Green, an- nounced that “Insull is here and here to stay.” The former utility magnate contends he was brought to America | from Turkey illegally. Insull’s preliminary hearing is set for Tuesday, but Green said it prob- ably would not be necessary for In- sull to appear'in person. Jamestown Defeats Devils Lake Squad Devils Lake, N.

PAUL TRIAL | | Woman Who Was to Have Tes- tified Against Dillinger Aides Disappears (Copyright 1934, The Associated Press) St. Paul, Minn, May 14—(#)—An important government witness in the case of three defendants charged with harboring John Dillinger, has disap- peared and Monday, 24 hours before the scheduled opening of the trial, the department of justice was frantically searching for her. Object of the extended search is Mrs. Dolores Smart, attractive 22- year-old Minneapolis blonde who was released on her own recognizance to appear at the trial of Evelyn Frech- ette, half-breed Indian sweetheart of the notorious killer, Dr. Clayton May of Minneapolis and tis nurse, Mrs. Augusta Salt. George F. Sullivan, United States district attorney, said “I feel confi- dent that she will be located in time to testify at the trial. Of course, we are anxious to find her.” The government, it was learned from _a reliable source, had “banked” on Mrs. Smart's testimony as one of the strong links in its chain of evi- dence against Dr. May and Mrs. Balt. Was Friend of Doctor Mrs. Smart was @ patient and friend of Dr. May. to infor- mation in possession of the depart- ment of justice, the young woman accompanied Dr. May to the apart- ment at 3300 Freemont Avenue, Min- neapolis, on at least one occasion when the physician treated Dillinger for a bullet wound. The desperado was wounded in the leg when he shot his ‘way out of a St. Paul apartment house on March 31. A few days after Dr. May and Mrs. Salt were arrested, federal agents took Mrs. Smart in custody. She was ques- tioned about her association with the defendants and then released with the understanding that she was to appear as @ government witness at the trial, It was learned that the government will attempt to show that Dr. May was with Mrs. Smart several times dur- ing the four days that Dillinger lay wounded in, Mrs. Salt’s home and at 3300 Fremont avenue, the apartment of Mrs. Beth Green, thereby refuting his claims that he was “in fear of his life.” Mrs. Green, also. charged with conspiracy to conceal and harbor the Indiana killer, has pleaded guilty and was expected to be the government's star witness in the trial, slated to open at 10 a. m. Tuesday. Claimed Compulsion In a recent interview Dr. May and Mrs. Salt said they were forced to treat Dillinger and were warned they would be killed if they refused. Dr, May claimed he was trailed by Eugene Green, slain Dillinger gangster, dur- ing the time that the desperado was under his treatment. A few days ago several federal agents left for unannounced destina- tions and it was believed they were running down clues that might lead to the woman's whereabouts. Up to noon Monday these agents had not re- turned to St. Paul. Meanwhile, George F. Sullivan, United States district attorney, con- tinued preparations of his case in which he will attempt to prove that Miss Frechette was the woman who slammed the door of a St. Paul apart- ment in the face of a St. Paul police- man and a federal agent a few minutes before Dillinger and Homer Van Meter engaged in a gunfight with them March 31. Sullivan also will endeavor to prove that Miss Frechette, named in the indictment under the alias of “Mrs. John Dillinger,” is the legal wife of George Sparks, now serving a term in Leavenworth prison.
