 Hopewell, N. J., May 10- (UP) a--The confessed bindbergh falcr, arralgncd in the home pf the grleving parents he vlctlmized. was prisoner No. 13 In Remington jaH today as police tried to clear up puzzling charges concerning .hls rc- lations with other "negotiatofs and request for q s25, 900 deposit.
 John II. Curtis. the hoaxlng boat builder from Norfolk. wanted t0 drop all Llndbergh "negotintions'' March l5. he charge q last night juSt before arralgnnont, Out car- rIed on because had been urged by Dean II. Dobson- Peacock who was enjoying the publicity"
 And Colonel II. Norman Schwartzkopf of the state police announced soon after tho dean re- fused to come 10 New Jersey for questioning, that the minister had asked Colonel Llndbcrgh to de- posit $25,000 in n Norfolk bank as "earnest money"
 | In Norfolk statements yestcrda y | Dean DObson- Peacock has denied that he asked for such n deposit ; he has denied that he urged Curtis on ln the cruelest deception on the records of American crime. The dean cited the fact that their negotiations" did not get under way until March 23.
 Other puzzllpg dlscrepancies, charges, contradictory statements. and theories also are to be inves- tigatod. including the theory held | by Norfolk police that Curtis has l .,.t t,.l1 al ls, .s.a als.af there has been no major develop ment in the hunt for the real kid- napers and murderers of Charles A. I.indbergh. Jr, with whom Dr John r. Condon Jafsle) Is be- licvcd to have dealt
 Among the puzzllng statements unanswered questions and odd theories checked we're these:
 Colonel Schwarzkopf announced that detectives sent to Norfolk could not verify the original story 'of the negotiations told by Curtis
 Dean Dobson-P Peacock told DO. lice of his reported mysterious trip to New York when he said hf was interviewed by well dressed gangsters in A hotel there who sug. gested a down payment of $50t and S50.000 C. 0. D. He "WOult do the same thing again under tho same circumstances" he told tho detectives. Curtis was in New York at the time. and phone calli from "gangsters" were traced tt Curtis.
 Schwarzkopf told Of the reported trip to HopewelI April 28 durint which Dobson-Peacock suggested the $25.000 "earnest money" b' deposited in a Norfolk bank in hi name. The dean did not recal such suggestion. Norfolk re ported.
 Police were checking movements of Curtis the night of March when the baby was kidnapped. anf the night of April when Jafsie pr John r. condon. paid $50.00( ransom money to alleged kidnap. CTS, Mrs Curtis said her husband was at home the night of March He was supposed to have been ir q navy seaplane with Lieutenant | George l.. Richard. April 2.

It is understood that Mir Curtis has a brother, George, who, however, lives in or near Norfolk, and nowhere in the vicinity of New York.
 At no time did Mir Curtis sec any of the actual ransom notes or the signature on them. In fact, it was the re- quest of Colonel Lindbergh for actual proof of his con- tacts with the kidnapers that was based upon the desire to have Mir Curtis bring from his alleged kidnapers a letter or communication bearing the signature known to be that of the kidnapers.
 DIR CONDON AIDS
 Dr C0nd0n has been most cooperative with the police authorities at this point and has volunteered to come to Hopewell at any time or to go anywhere else with any of the investigators on the case. A message received from his daughter this morning, indi. cates that Dr Condon's physi. clan has ordered that he rest for several days before his activities are resumed. As soon as Dr Condon is rested we will continue taking him around.

LONDON PRESS
AROUSED BY
KIDNAPPING

LONDON, March 8 QN.S0.
Few crimes in other lands has
stirred Great Britain as much as
the kidnapping of the baby son Of
Colonel Lindbergh, regarded here
as Americas Prince of Wales.
The British press today saw in
The crime an open challenge to
American law and order. The
Daily Telegraph said:
Few more open challenges to
q civilized government have
ever been ventured. Every citi-
zen in America who is able to
do so feels he has a part in
rescuing the baby. The whole
world will enter into the acute
anxiety of his parents"
The Daily Express said:
I'VE are much mistaken If
this brutal kidnapping does not
bring all American women into
the front line Of a war upon
gangSters and stamp out the
cOnfederacy of crime which has
clutched America by the throat"
The Daily Mail said:
"The kidnapping of the Lind
bergh baby is a crime that will
stir the whole world with hOr-
rOr. 1t is something startling,
arresting, and shocking, since
a sudden light is thrown ON the
dreadful possibility in every
home where there are chill
dren."
