Wendt, Former Buffalo Iron
King" Also Had 100000
in Hotel: Insanity AIleocd

Los ANGELES. Feb William
Wendt, Los Angeles millionaire, who
could not be found at his hotel to-day
when officers sought to take him into
custody on a warrant and complaint
charging insanity. was a prisoner to-
night in the psychopathic ward of the
Los Angeles County Hospital.
Detectives found him at a railroad
station, where, it was believed. he was
planning to board a train for FL Paso.
In his pockets they said they found
bonds and stocks valued at S350,O00 and
in hotel other than that where he
lived an additional 100000 in cur
rency. He was said to have Carried
both in a small grip when he left his
hotel this morning.
Courts at Buffalo recently declared
Wendt incompetent. He said the rul-
ing made no difference to him, as he
was not in their jurisdiction. Then
his daughter, Miss Margaret L. Wendt,
brought charges OF insanity against
him here.
Wendt was known as "thc iron king
in Buffalo, where he lived until late in

Man Who Makes Charges
Says He Got 5000: Has

Speclal D4spotoh 10 rhc Tr,bune

DETROIT, Feb. 22.-Accordng TO q
statement made to-day to Sheriff COT
fin, of this city, by Harry H. Fields.
thirty-sever years old, with numerous
prison records in California and Wash
ington state two men and woman,
whose names were to-day wired to the
police OF Los Angeles. were directly
implicated in the murder of William
Desmond Taylor.
Fields, who is being held here Oh a
charge of forgery, informed Sheriff
Coffin that he himself drove the slay-
ers to and from the Taylor home in
an automobile, for which he received
q roll of bills amounting to 5000.
Upon completion Of the job, Ssail
Fields, the quartet Immediately fed
from Hollywood
If Fields's story Is confirmed. it will
be the first information the police have
received with direct bearing on the
murder.
Fields is said by Sheriff Coffin to
have stated that the man who paid
him the 5000 changed $1,000 bill in
order to get the money.
The prisoner told Emory Brooks,
turnkey, the story and later repeated
II to Sheriff Coffin, who tclegraphed it
almost verbatim to Los Angeles. The
police there asked Sheriff Coffin to
hold Fields.
Later the Sheriff asked Fields a num-
Der Of questions, at the request Of the
Los Angeles police. He telegraphed the
answers and was waiting tonight for
a report from there on the result Of
the investigation of the mans state
ments.
Field declared that on the night Of
the murder he drove two men and a
woman to Taylor's home in Hollywood.
The trio went into the Taylor place
and returned in few noments, where
upon he drove them away. He told
Turnkey Brooks and Sheriff Coffin that
the plan to Kill Taylor was conceived
in drug resort insLos Angeles.
He said he did not know the motive
behind the Staying and did not know
whether the men and the woman were
paid for their part in it. He gave
Sheriff Coffin the names Of the trio.
which were transmitted to Los An
geles.
Special Dispatch to The Tribune
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 22.-While
waiting further particulars from De
troit regarding the statement Of Harry
Fields in connection with the Taylor
murder mystery, the sheriff's Office is
checking up on Ficlds's connections
here.
Under Sheriff Eugene Biscaluz and
Deputy Frank Dewar have information
that Fields, also known as Cohan and
as Harry the Ch;nk," has been mem
Der of narcotic ring and is con-
victed forger.
The fact that Fields was picked up
with q Chinese and two women is re-
garded as extremely significant, mas
much as Chinese of this city already
has said he had supplied opium for q
"love cult" OF which Taylor was a
disciple.
That is a strong indication, say in
vestigators, that Fields is telling the
truth Some Of the questions in the
telegraphic third degree" are said to
