logger. He said he had no idea there
was money in the envelope and declared
neither he nor Bauer had made any
attempt to secure money from Milton
or Dudley.
Police officials previously had testi-
fed that when they approached Bauer
at Eighth and L streets he invited them
to search him and denied any knowledge
of the envelope. Schleichert said this
