Investigate Market Investments
Following HauptmannS assertion IN
the police lineup that he had played
the stock market in 1882, police and
federal investigators turned to Wall
Street for an answer to the question
Of what became Of the money not yet
accounted for. One police official was
quoted as saying that Hauptmann
had IA account at one brokerage house
which ran as high at $4,000. Haupt-
mann has told what police call q
fantastic" story to the effect that q
mysterious Isadore Fische gave him
$4,000, Of which the money found
in his garage was part.
Hauptmann was lodged Saturday
In the Bergen Jail In the Bronx and
faced additional interrogation by
Bronx county authorities. He is be-
ing held without ball on the extor-
ton charge, but the district attorney
Is uncertain whether he will press
the extortion charge when he appears
before the grand jury on Monday to
seek an indictment.
There were, however, reports that
Hauptmann had an accomplice, and
federal officials admitted that such
might be the case.
The New Jersey investigation, which
now appears to be the most likely to
bring the mystery to final solution,
has disclosed, Col. Schwarzkopf said
at Sea Grit. N. j., that the handwrit-
ing Of Hauptmann has been positive
"" identified as the same as appeared
on the several ransom notes resulting
in the payment Of the $4,000 by Dr..
John F. "Jafsie" Condor In q Bronx
cemetery . little more than q month
after the kidnapping.
In linking Hauptmann with the kid
nap ladder, Schwarzkopf said that the
lumber had been traced to the yard
Of the National Millwork and Lum-
Der company In the Bronx and that In
vestigators had learned Hauptmann
had worked there on odd Jobs prior to
the kidnapping.
schwarzkopf said the Investigation
had not disclosed that Hauptmann
had been employed as q carpenter in
the construction Of the Lindbergh
home in Hopewell or about the house
hold Of either Of Col. and Mrs. Lind
bergh or that Of Mrs. Lindbergh's
mother, Mrs. Dwight w. Morrow in
Englewood, N. J.
