CHICAGO, May 3O.-Melvin H.
Purvis, head of the local bureau of
the Federal Department of Investi-
cation, has added his name to the list
of those expressing the opinion that
John Dillinger is dead.
A day or so ago Attorney General
Homer S. Cummings murmured: II
wonder if Dillinger isn't dead"
Last night-only a few hours after
four girl companions of Dillinger gang
sters repeatedly were questioned about
the mob's activities-Purvis said he
was convinced" that the No. / bad
man of America was dead
In fact, he added, some of his
agents were looking for Dillinger's
supposed grave" in a lonely field
somewhere in Southern Indiana"
Fatal Wounds.
Investigators revealed they had
talked" to an Indiana doctor, name
and home unrevealed, who told them
that Dillinger, week after the time
he shot his way out of a Federal
trap in Wisconsin, appeared at his
Office in company of three men who
forced him to dress three wounds, any
"one OF which might have proved
fatal"
This, added to the reports that
Dillinger has been buried in Southern
Indiana has convinced u.s." Purvis
said, that he really is dead"
Although Purvis declined to confirm
the report that four woman COM
panions of the mob had been ques-
TONED by his aides. it was learned
authoratively they were in the city, or
had been here.
Admit Woman i'm Town.
One of the women is Mrs. Bess
Green, widow of Eddie Green, slain
by Federal agents at St. Paul. Fed
eral men admitted she was here last
week while en- route to prison at
Anderson, w. Va. Other sources indi-
Gated she was still in this city.
The other three were those seized
in the little Bohemian resort in
Northern Wisconsin after Dillinger
and his male companions shot their
way to safety. They are under sus-
pended sentences imposed by Federal
Judge Patrick T. Stone at Madison

FRANKFORT, KY, May 30.-The
administrators per cent gross re-
ceipts tax bill failed of passage in an
other test in the House of the State
Legislature yesterday, but was kept

Administration leaders indicated an
other effort would be made to pass the

engineers before a low bidder can be
ascertained.
Alexander HOWE, Inc, of Cleveland,
wants $61 900 for erecting the scaf-
folding and this was the only firm to
submit bids for the cleaning and
pointing work as well. The American
Tubular Elevator Co. of Pittsburgh Of

It was possible to verify all
Of these statements, and Sidney
and his friends were promptly
accused, tried, and sentenced to
life imprisonment for the crime.
This story had made a consid-
cradle impression in the under
world, so had been told, and
it was now becoming fashionable
for a criminal, If innocent, to
clamor long and loudly for the
truth serum.
Either Tim Stokes was really
innocent or he was counting
upon the strength of his will
power and mentalits' to beat the
test. However, I doubted the
ability of anyone to react dis
honestly to the injection. I had
seen it tried out several times.
Consequently I was sure in my
own mind that Tim Stokes, II
guilty, would confess under the
influence Of scopolamin.
Anyway wouldn't have

It had been arranged that the
examination should take place
in one of the small private
rooms at headquarters. DR.. Ar

had agreed to come down and
take charge.
At the corner Of Fayette and
Charles Streets, Kirk Judson
said goodbye to me. I did my
best to persuade him to come
along with me. but he protested
that he felt too i'll for the ordeal.
"I've already arranged with
one of my men to represent us"
he told me again.
"IIl be seeing you again soon.
I suppoSe?"
"Oh, by all means.
Stokes may tell something
which will close the case, but
personally I don't think the
fellow is going to confess. I
haven't any faith in this sort
of thing"

Tragic Eyes
"Ah, yes"
For some reason she was
never able afterwards to ex-
plain, Chickie glanced up and
found her eyes laid full on the
eyes of Barry Dunno. They
were the most tragic eyes she
had ever beheld. His face was
thin, more aquiline than ever:
the hair still thick and still
red, but the mouth, once so
fun cut, so reckless and sweet,
was drawn and grim.
With her glance, q flood Of
color swept to his temples.
Quickly he raised his hand and
swept it back over his hair. He
said hastily and without SEEM
ing to know the words that
dropped from his lips:
els the boy, Jon. your son?"
ayes, he is my oldest son."
A silence loud with unSpoken

thinking? That Chickie was
compensated? She could look
at a boy like Jon and laugh
forever, let the hurt Of the
past be what it would?. Was
Barry Dunno thinking this?

Barry Dunno looked as
though he would collapse. There
was a harsh thin line about his
mouth. He and David had not
met since that dinner when
someone jeered at Chickle Bryce
someone asked, as David de-
Tended her:
"If she is so fine would you
recommend her as a wife for
your best friend. or better,
as a wife for yourself?"
And David answered:
IT can think Of no greater
good fortune for my best friend
no dearer honor for myself
than to be chosen as the hus-
band of Helena Bryce!"
Few at that party knew Barry
Dunno was the man responsible
for Chickie's fate.
David knew it. When Barry's
hand shook so that the wine
spilled from his glass, David
reached across the table and
mopped up the red trickle.
In the minds Of both men
the incident was reenacted.
But David remembered a twi-
light in the forest when he
said:
II have told the world I love
you. So you must take me,

and was glad.

FOURTH DEGREE
BY K. S. DAIGER

Dr.. Dandy had already arrived
and had donned his white
apron. Inspector Anderson was
there with his arm in q sling,
SO white and drawn that I was
shocked. Hurley and Katz, and
the commissioner, several other
detectives, and a representative
from each Of the newspapers
and press services. Also two
other dignified professional gen.
tlemen, whom I correctly sur
missed were physicians, inter-
eSted in seeing an application
Of the drug. And, to my sur
prise, Randolph Paige and the
lawyer, Robert Cleveland. I
watched the two men curiously.
The center of the picture was
Tim Stokes. He sat on the edge
Of a single cot which haC been
set up in the center of the room.
He had removed his coat and
vest, collar and tie, and had
rolled up his shirt sleeves.
The whole thing struck me as
very informal, not your typical
operating room.
A few minutes later DR..
Dandy pulled out his watch.
"I see it's now after two" he
said to Anderson. "Shall we
start? I have to get back to
Philadelphia this afternoon. Are
you ready, StokeS?"
"Okay, Doc" he said.
DR.. Dandy stepped forward
with a hypodermic needle . his
hand. "I'l, put it in the arm,
Tim" he aid. "Now there's
nothing to be afraid of. It won't
hur' a bit. lou may feel slightly
nauseated. If you do, just drop
your head ON the pillow here.
After a little while, we're going
to ask you some questions. Don't
try to think the answers-just
say anything that happens to
occur to you. Don't try to re-
member anything"
In ~eply, Tim silently ex-
tended his right arm and the
doctor inserted the needle. For
q few minutes, there was
dead silence in the room.

Pippin, with a group Of girls,
came trouping by. The girl
stopped with an eager:
Mother! When did you ar

Then Pippin saw Barry
Dunno and instantly recog-
nized the man who had spoken
on the beach. She gave happy
laugh.
$50, you're old friends, are
you? Isn't that exciting! What
do you think, Helena? Mr..
Dunno saw me and thought I
was you. He said 'Chickie.' I
felt so proud"
Barry Dunno, standing and
taking all this from Pippin,
grew white. His face looked
like powdered ash. AS the girls
moved away, he gave a little
tug at his collar and said:
Warm, isn't it?"
Chickie felt like weeping. But
Barry Dunno dropped back to
the stiff chair with a grim,
blanched look and his eyes fast
ened on his plate. He showed
it from him with a low,
strained:
"The resemblance is startling.
You seem scarcely to have
changed at ALL"
Chickie Shocked
Chickie felt a shock-a queer,
Shivering chill. Not changed?
But there had been q time
when she poured herself out
like a wine for this man to

She looked clear into his face
and said with quiet. deep tran
