took the spotlight in the probe of
the past activities of George RemuS,
colorful millionaire bootleg king,
who will go on trial in Cincinnati in
few weeks for the Staying of his
wife Imogene.
With prosecutors charging that
Remus murdered Sheriff William
Van Camp near Rockville, Ind, in
1928, State -and defense attorneys
completed taking of dispositions in
st. Louis and were expected here
late today or Monday to take depo-
sitions from Indianapolis persons
who knew the bootleg king and his
wife.

charge that Remus murdered Sher-
if Van Camp some time ago, but
declared he knew of no evidence to
support it.
Prosecutor Charles P. Taft, II, of
Cincinnati indicated at st. Louis
that the State will contend Remus
killed his wife on the eve of the
opening of her divorce suit against
him, to prevent her from barring the
murder of Van Camp at the trial.

Making public dispositions from
John T. Rogers, st. Louis reporter,
Defense Attorney Charles Elston in
dicated the defense would attempt
to show that Mrs. Remus had plot
ted against her husband as an ex-
tenuating circumstances to his
shooting of her.
Rogers testified that "Jew John"
Marcus, one of the Jack Daniel
liquor conspiracy defendants, twice
told him Mrs. Remus sought to
have him arrange for Remus' death.
Tells Of CIaypOol Meeting
Rogers also told of a meeting
with Franklin Dodge, former Fed
eral dry agent, in the Claypool here,
at which he said Dodge revealed
two revolvers and led him to be-
lieve they were "for Remus."
This incident occurred presumably
at the time Remus was chief gov
ernment witness against Jack Daniel
liquor conspirators in Federal Court
here. Mrs. Remus was one of those
under indictment, but charges
against her were nolled so her hus-
band might testify.
1t was at about this time that
Remus fought with Dodge on the
street here and was indicted for as
sault and battery.
The charge never was pressed.
Two Charged With Death
Three or four local persons who
heard Mrs. Remus threaten her
husband at that time and heard her
declare her husband was extreme
ly jealous, will give dispositions for
the defense, according to Maholm.
Whether the attorneys will go to
Rockville to take dispositions on
Sheriff Van Camps death is not
known.
Rockville authorities always have
believed Van Camp was killed by
two men wanted in Ohio for bank
robbery whom he had learned were
camping in the woods near there.
The two they charge with the muir
