MYSTERY MAN
TO NE|CHBORS
Hauptmann Known as ReIi-
able, Steady Person; Wife
Also German.
By United Press


NEW YORK, Sept 21-Bruno
Richard Hauptmann until today was
known to his neighbors as a steady,
reliable man whose son bore vague
resemblance to the kidnapped child
of Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh.
When he played cards, the stakes
never were high. :
Hauptmann also had his mysteri-'
GUS side, neighbors said, but this
was passed off as due to taciturnity
and, as far as money was concerned,
to a bit of luck in Wall Street.
The baby clothes of the Haupt-.
mann child were hanging on line
in the back yard when curious per-
sons first began assembling at the
house upon word that the owner had
been arrested for possessing the
Lindbergh ransom money. The To-
months-old boys name is Manfred.
Mrs. Anne Hauptmann, who be-
fore her marriage was a waitress at
a place on the Boston Post road, is
a native German, like her husband.
She is blond, buxom and pleasant
appearing.
"Hauptmann never did much
talking" one neighbor said. "Usu-
ally, when you met him, he'd just
say, hello and let it go at that.
He was an enthusiastic hunter, often
going to Canada, and played good
hand of pinochle.

Old, White Haired Man Is

By United Press
NEW YORK, Sept. 21-An old,
White-haired man-victim of a
heart breaking swindle with the life
of baby at stake-returned to his
home today after trying to decide
according to his own conscience If
Bruno Richard Hauptmann was the
John" to whom he paid $4,000 for
the return to Charles A. Lindbergh
Jr.
DR.. John F. Condor, the amiable
"Jafsie" whom authorities are con-
WINGED paid Lindberghs money to
the actual kidnaper, partly identi-
fed Hauptmann.
But there still was q possibility
of doubt in his mind, and he went
home to consult his conscience.
MY lips are sealed" he said.
DR.. Condor felt that he was near
his vindication when he was led into
a room at Greenwich street police
station last night. There had been
inuendos at the time he paid the
ransom, and he had dedicated his
life to indicating himself.
Twenty men were lined up in the
rom, all staring at him. Inspector
John J. Lyons invited him to pick
John" out.
May I proceed by elimination"
he asked.
"Of course"
Condor walked straight up to
Hauptmann. He then picked out
three detectives. These four he
lined up and questioned individually,
particularly about the spelling and
pronunciation of their names. He
listened intently as each man
spoke.
He then sat down and wrote
two notes. The first he handed to
Hauptmann.
Read aloud" he said.
Hauptmann read:
II always keep my word. If the
baby is returned in good health,
will do everything to help you"
Hauptmann was nervous, inclined
to tremble. Condor ignored the
other three men, handing Haupt-
mann the second note. Hauptmann
read:
Are you ready to act? We can

SUNDAY BEST ON JOB
AFTER RANSOM TIP
BY United Press

BY United Press
NEW YORK, Sept. 21.-The
man who trapped the Lindbergh
ransom recipient didn't wear his
overalls to work today.
Walter Lyle usually wears his
overalls when cranking out gaSo-
line at a filling station in the
Bronx, but today he was dressed
in a fresh shirt and neat trousers.
Mr.. Lyle was the man out of
many who handled thousands of
dollars in ransom money who was
quick enough to suspect its source
and who had presence of mind to
jot down a clew to the identity of
the man who passed it.
Part of the reward money for
information leading to the Lind
bergh kidnapers may go to him if
the case against Bruno r. Haupt-
mann is success.

Going back to the car DR.. Condor
gave the package of $4,000 to
Colonel Lindbergh. They drove to
DR.. Condon's house and did not
open the letter for three hours fol-
lowing instructions.
When they did, they found the
following message:
The boy is on boat Nelly. 1t is
a small. boat twenty-eight feet long.
Two persons are on board. They
are innocent. You will find the
boat between Horseneck beach and
Gay Head near Elizabeth Island"
Colonel Lindbergh few to the Gay
Head, Mass, address and spent two
days looking for the boat that

By UH4ted Press
NEW YORK, Sept. 21.-One of
the busiest gasolite filling stations
in the city today was the one where
the $40 gold certificate in the Lind
bergh case was passed.
More than a dozen policemen
were kept busy keeping lanes clear
for customers who wanted to buy
gasoline from Walter Lyle, the man
ager, whose suspicion prompted him
to mark down the license number
of the automobile owned by Bruno
Richard Hauptmann. Lyle's nota-
ton finally broke" the Lindbergh
case.
It was about 10 a. m. last Sat-
urday that a tall, heavy-set man
wearing a gray felt hat drove up
in Dodge sedan and asked for
five gallons of gasoline.
In payment, he handed Lyle a
$40 goldback.
Are you sure it's legal to accept
this?" the manager asked.
"Of course" the customer assured
him. tits perfectly good. I've got
hundreds Of EN-"
AS the patron drove off, Lyle
scrubbed the license number across
the face of the bill
Later, he and his assistants, John
Lyons and Joseph Mccarthy, went
to the nearby branch of the Corn
Exchange Bank and Trust Com
pany. Their suspicion that it was
one of the Lindbergh ransom bills
was confirmed.
Police were notified and the three
men were sworn to secrecy.

told them IF the case breaks" they

Proof that he was dealing
with the actual kidnapers

parents. With it was a note

no false clewS and to be pre-
pared to pay without seeing
the child first.

the demand to 100000 unless paid
