The very best the police could do last
night after working all day in an effort
to clear up the identity of the slayers
of Barnett Baff, the poultry dealer. who
was shot down near his office in West
Washington Market on Tuesday night,
was to report that they believed they
were on the trail OF man who could
lead them straight to the gunner.
They even went SO far as to say that
they were merely delaying the arrest OF
this man until they can get hands on one
Of his associates who was within reach
several times Yesterday. but always
slipped through the police lines that have
been thrown out IN all directions.
Inspector Faurot left his office early
yesterday morning and did not return
during the day. 1t was said that he was
giving his personal attention to the
search and that he had enlisted the aid
of several squads Of detectives who
ordinarily devote themselves 70 other
branches OF police work..
