"SteUie Has Talked" Is
HoOsier State RumOr
Especial to Tho Daily Worker,

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 15.-"stevle
has talkedl stevle is back in the
foIdI"
This was the message brought back
today to re-klndIe the dying embers
Of lndians's independent political
house cleaning.
1t was brought here from behind
the grim walls Of the state peniten-
tiary at Michigan City where "Stevie"
I'D. c. Stephenson, ex-klan dragon
who 1t said pulled the wires which
actuated Indiana's alleged puppets OF
state and municipal ofIicialdom-is in
Solitary serving a life sentence for
the death of Madge Oberholtzer al
most a year ago.
And the man who brought the new
life blood to the emaciated investi-
cation was a public official of high
standing-grand jury deputy, William
H. Schaeffer.
sehaeffer Takes Trip.
Schaeffer, accompanied by Earl
Klinck, former ally of Stephenson
and co-defendant with him in the
Oberholtzer trial, left Indianapolis
two days ago, shortly after Stephen
sons dramatic appearance before the
grand jury, empanneled to probe
charges Of corruption in Indiana poll
tics. and his equally sensational re-
fusal to talk before a. civil court be-
fore which he was summoned to give
statement of his assets in a damage
suit.
The trip was compromise ar
rangement. Court Asher was not sat
isled with Stephenson's attitude.
And Asher. devoted pal of "Stevie,'
could not believe the street gossip
that his idol had turned him down
had sold out" to the very men he
had said he would expose in return
for alleged promises of freedom.
They were with Stephenson for three
hours.
He Talks.
Both indicated that Stephenson had
gone over all the vast maze OF
SA0A 6Cb tudL HofO 6A1ldAdLou IIOlll nlul
He discussed and reiterated all Of
them, verbally It is believed, but #
is known that he did not reveal the
location of the documentary evidence
which supports his allegations. This.
he maintained, as he has in the past,
will be produced when the circum-
stances warrant"
Both stood ready to give an ac-
count of the conference TO the grand
jury during the day. Early indica-
lions were that they would be sum-
moned as soon as that body con-
vened.
Tear State TO Pieces.
Thomas r. Adams today said that
he had had no official word from
Senator Reed concerning the COM
mittee meeting but he was vehement
in declaring that he would be on
hand to be heard by them. There
will be others there with him, to cor
roborate his charges and all members
OF the party will leave here with the
expressed determination TO tear the
state into little pieces"

in Dunn's pocket is 6 common type and might fit hundreds Of locks, the lawyer said. It is possible that the police could find many keys of this kind but they could not convict everyone found having them simply because they fit the lock in the East Main street place. Judge Alling said that is true, but Dunn is the only man found with such a key who was also seen in the place.
 MT. Greenstein, arguing for con- viction, contended that the evidence showed that Dunn was the owner of the place. He was there night after night. The fixtures were those that formerly were in the basement pool room where a successful raid was made some time ago. and Of
 flcer Doty testified that the night Dunn slammed the door at him, he admitted he was the proprietor. Furthermore, Mir. Greenstein said, he did not believe any man charged with an offense of this nature. would stand by and take the responsibility if he had the chance 10 clear him. self by telling who the owner is. The key fit the lock and Dunn has been seen locking the outer door al- most every night, he concluded.

NEW HAVEN MAN MISSING
Police Are Asked To Aid In Finding
 August Ruttolo, Aged 30

New Haven, Sept. A P>-Fearing that foul play may have been the cause of his mysterious disappear ance last Monday, friends of August Ruttolo, 30, have asked the police to aid in discovering what has be- come of the man.
 Mrs. May LaRocko at whose home in Columbus avenue Ruttolo lived, brought the case to the attention of the police. She claimed that the last she saw of him was last Mon day when he left to go to a factory where he was employed.
 It was learned by the police that Ruttolo had been friendly with 16- year-old Louise Criscuolo and 1t is thought that perhaps this had something to do with his disappear ance.
 About midnight last Saturday the father of the girl, who formerly lived in the Columbus avenue house but who at present lives in Brook lyn, came to the Columbus avenue house. Mrs. LaRocko told the po- lice. but was refused admittance. Mrs. LaRocko said she feared trou- ble and would not let the man en- ter the house.
