that prayers are not In vain," Mrs.

afternoon, Arnold and Irene Mrs.
Clegg) told Us they were leaving the
city for a few days"
Mrs NJ, E. Clegg. mother of the
minister, nodded affirmation TO this
statement.
"A short time before Arnold left
he received telephone CALL" she
said. We were dinly aware what
was happening because several de-
partnnt Of justice officers told us
that they would have to remain in
the home for a few hours. They
warned Us not to answer the tele-
phone and 10 tell every one that We
would not be at home until late to-
night.
Every one was tense and excited
until another call near 9 o'clock. We
learned that Mrs. Stoll and Irene
and Arnold had been met"
Pointing TO Mrs. Clegg, motherly
gray-haired Mrs. Printz said, "At
last we can sleep tonight. 1t has
been an ordeal for all Of US. We are
both very proud Of Irene and Ar
mold"

By Times Staff CORRESPONDENT

thanks to The Indianapolis Times

IF the name of the man we think

Alice probably would not be alive
today" the elderly millionaire de-
clared. The editor of The Times
is to be thanked for his service to
us in Withholding the name"
Mr.. Stoll said that the kidnaper
was so desperate that had his name
been in print probably he would
have murdered Mrs. Stoll and fed
from the country.
Mr.. Stolls wife affirmed her hus-
bands statements and said, MY
daughter in-law is safe in her
home. She is being guarded from
any disturbances. She is in need of
rest and nourishment."
Mrs. Stoll said she did not know
Robinson other than that she be-
lieved he had been employed at the
Stou Oil Refining Company, of
which Berry V. Stoll is an official.
Mrs. William ShallcroSs Speed,
mother of the rescued woman, in
telephone conversation with a Times
reporter said, Il am glad to say my
daughter is safe at home. l do not
believe she suffered any injury"
The ransom notes left by the kid
naper indicated that the elder Mr.
Stoll was the original intended vic
tim Of the foul plot and that Mrs.
Stoll was taken as substitute.

THOUSANDS JAM
STOLL HOME ON
VICTIMS RETURN
Estate in Confusion as
Friends Seek Glimpse
of Woman.


LOUISVILLE. Oct. 17.-Friends
and neighbors Of Mrs. Alice Speed
Stoll turned out by the thousands
last night for the homecoming OF
the rescued social leader.
Mrs. Ston, however, was tired and
hungry She was fed a warm din
ner and tenderly put to bed while
the crowd milled about in the warm
Kentucky night outside. impatient
for full details Of the strange case.
They came in automobiles until
the highways were jammed. Hun
dreds thronged the Stou estate on
foot hoping to catch a glimpse Of
the woman just returned safely
home after six days in kidnapers'
hands.
Extra police were summoned to
keep the throng at a distance from
the brick colonial mansion where
the Stoll family rejoiced. The house
was lighted from cellar to garnet.
Husband Is Jubilant
Berry V. Stol the wealthy vice.
president of the Stou Refining Com
pany, tempered his JOY with caution.
Obeying admonitions of the depart
ment Of justice he maintained strict
silence as to any disclosures that
may have been made to him by his
wife
Il haven't a thing to say; it's all
in the hands Of the department OF
justice" he announced in clipped
words.
The lines of worry and fear had
disappeared from his face, however,
and he was freshly shaven-his first
shave in five torturous days.
The men of the family, including
StOll's two brothers and his father
and Frederick Sackett, diplomat and
uncle Of Mrs. Stoll, expected to con-
fer today on their future activities
in the case.
Whether they will press the hunt
for the kidnaper or leave the mat
ter entirely to the government has
not been decided, William Stoll,
brother Of the husband and presi-
dent of the Stoll Oil Refinery Com
pany, said.
Confusion Marks Scene
The confusion about the Stoll
home, which is about six miles
from the business district of Louis
vile in an exclusive residential sec
ton overlooking the Ohio river, was
almost beyond control during the
night.
Harold L. Nathan, head of the
governments manhunters tracking
down the kidnapers, emerged from
the Stoll home two or three hours
after Mrs. Stoll's return and found
himself surrounded by newspaper
men and photographers.
The fashlight bulbs of the cam
ermen splashed in the darkness and
reporters wrote, blindly and hur-
riedly, and Nathan talked.
For an hour after Mrs. Stoll's re-
turn the telephone rang incessant-
ly. 1t finally was disconnected.
Wed like to know more about it
ALL but we can't reach them by tele-
phone and We don't want to fight
our way through that crowd to get
over there" said William Stoll,
whose home is only a short dis
lance.

CLEWS IN STOLL
CASE AIMED AT
NASHVILLE MAN
Robinson Suspected After
FingerprintS Found
by Agents.

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, Oct. II. - The
department Of justice. almost within
a matter OF hours after abduction
OF Mrs. Alice Stoli last Wednesday.
pointed the finger Of accusation to
Thomas II. Robinson Jr., as her kid
naper.
The story OF that Identification.
revealed today. was that Of another
triumph for the departments ever
alert and machine-like division Of
investigation.
Although they named Robinson
as the kidnaper. federal agents had
to act with utmost caution until
Mrs. Stoll was returned. Her safety
was foremost. The authorities we're
dealing with a man who had
threatened 20 kill-a man who once
had been under observation in the
Tennessee insane asylum.
But today. with Mrs. Stoll safe at
her Louisville home, the hunt for
Robinson was on in full cry.
Search Is Pressed
Federal agents believed they were
hot on his trail. 1t apparently led
out Of Indianapolis, Where Mrs
Robinson delivered the ransom
money TO him after receiving It
from the Stoll family in Nashville
on Tuesday. She was taken into
custody when federal agents re-
leased Mrs. Stoll outside Louisville
last night.
Long before that. scientific GRIM
inal identification pointed to Robin
son. Here is how it was done:
The kidnaper's designation in the
ransom note Of T. H. Robinson ST..
Of Nashville as the desired inter
mediary led to immediate inquiry
by Nashville federal agents. They
found his son had a minor police
record.
Meantime. from Louisville a copy
Of the ransom note was rushed to
the justice departments laboratory
here. II was brushed with special
chemical powders. Tell-tale finger
prints appeared.
Then from their file of more than
100000 criminal records, depart
ment agents pulled the card of
young Robinson. He had been ar
rested only twice. on comparatively
minor charges, and never convicted.
But the department had its COM
plete record and his fingerprints.
The prints tailed with those on the
ransom letter.
Lindbergh Case Cited
To strengthen the case experts
pronounced Robinson's writing
identical with fragn1entary speci-
mems on margins of the typewriter
letter.

chances, but at the same time it
was evident officials here looked for |
a speedy roundup of Robinson and
his supDOSed accOmDliceS.

Ransom Note Carried
Threats to Capitalists

nelly, Charles Boetcher, ETC., the
police were called in, the federal
men, too. Yet the families we're
forced to pay the ransom money,
because the police we're unable to
solve the cases in time to prevent
payment.
The police only delayed return
of the victim, and caused more suf-
fering all around. Once you call in
police, you can not get rid of them
when you discover that they can
not bring your father back, and you
would like to go ahead and pay the
ransom as directed, but they won't
let you contact the kidnapers.
You can not deal secretly with
the police. either. There is always
some crooked cop who will tip off a
newspaper reporter for a sum of
money.

the station to look over suspicious
or known criminals. Then it will be
too late for you to save Stoll's life
We can not wait over a week for
our money"
Ransom Plans Laid
Further on in the letter, the kid
naper granted five days, excluding
Sunday, for payment of the $4,000.
The letter gave explicit directions
for shipment Of the ransom money
in $40 and $40 bills by express. At
the bottom was a blank for the
name of the intermediary.
The body of the letter said, This
intermediary's name will be filled in
at the bottom of his page by Stoll.
1t will have to be one of several
business men living in Nashville,
Tenn, who we know to be friend
of Stoll, and who We are prepared
to watch in order to see if you try
to set a trap for U.S."
When the note was left at the
StOll home, however, the blank al
ready had been filled in with the
name of 1T. H. Robinson, 1716 Ash
wood ave-, Nashville, Tenn.
