Death and doctors bent over the
cot in Manhattan Eye, Ear and
Throat hospital last night The semi
conscious man was mumbling in
delirium. Occasional phrases were
ineligible. These were:
yes. Governor we'll, Cover
nor,
Mr.. Woodin always called Mr.
Roosevelt Governor" When life
left him he was talking with his
beloved friend, who, though not
physically present, was an image in
his mind
The nation mourned the wistful
little man today and mis- many
friends we're sure that devotion to
his friend and leader and his coun-
try had shortened his life. ImmedI-
ately following his death, the White
House issued a statement, saying:
mo man in time of war showed
greater devotion or made greater
sacrifices than Secretary Woodin."
Entered in Banking Crisis
When Mr.. Roosevelt became
President and Mr.. Woodin became
his secretary of the treasury in
March. 1888. the country was in
the midst of an ominous banking
crisis. Mr., Woodin worked day and
night for. weeks, though he already
was marked by the persistent infec-
ton of the throat which was to
cause his death.
With Mr.. Woodin when he died
were his wife and his daughter, Mrs
Mary Minor. He also is survived oy
his son, William H. Woodin Jr,, now
in Tucson, Ariz., for his health, and
two other daughters, Mrs. o. F.
Harvey, New York, and Mrs. Wal
lace w. Rowe. Cincinnati.
Mr.. Roosevelt, when told in
washington, was deeply affected.
Il am very deeply shocked and
distressed by the passing of my dear
friend he said.
He is expected to attend the
funeral, arrangements for which
will be announced today. Mr..
Woodin would have been 66. May D..
A lifelong Republican, he became
a Democrat to support his friend
Alfred E. Smith in 1923 and when
his friend, Franklin D. Roosevelt
became the Democratic nominee in
1882 he was the largest contributor
to his campaign fund.
President Roosevelt called Mr..
Woodin to direct the treasury when
it faced it's darkest days since the
Civil war.
Strain Proves Too Much
The strain was too much. After
eight months in Office, on Oct. 81,
he withdrew from active work. In
December he went to Tucson.

First intimation Of the alleged eX-

While the detective waited near
the flag all Tuesday and part of

might be regarded as suspicious.

detective went to Paragon where
they found that the white flag hung
on the tree as signal had been

In the note demanding the money
detectives said that the Indianapolis
man had been instructed to drop
"25 cents" which according to the
detectives actually meant $4,000.

DILLINGER, PAL
HOLD Up BANK,
SHOOT OFFICER
HooSier Outlaw Identified
Positively in $4,000
Ohio Raid.

By United Press
CHICAGO, May Am army of
10000 police and federal agents
swarmed over roads leading from
northern Ohio and Indiana today as
the result of Identification of hunted
John Dillinger as one of two bandits
who robbed a Fostoria co. bank of
$4,000 and kidnapped two bank
employees.
Diverted from the concentrated
search which swept through Chicago
gang haunts after discovery here of
a bloodsoaked automobile stolen by
Dillinger gangsters near st Paul,
the man-hunters bent every effort
toward intercepting the outlaw lead
er if he doubles back to Chicago
from the scene of the latest crime
attributed to him.
Ralph Barbour, assistant cashier
Of the robbed First National bank,
was positive in identifying the lead
er of the two bandits as Dillinger.
1T was him, without any queS-
ton" Barbour said. only he wore
no mustache."
Miss Ruth Harris, bookkeeper,
who was used by the bandits as a
living shield against bullets of a
posse and police, also believed one
of her captors was the much
wanted outlaw.
Ohio and Indiana police we're
modified by radio to blockade roads
after the bandits shot their way
past police who attempted to lock
them into the bank. Chief of Po-
lice Frank P. CUP, SO, was critical
ly wounded in the battle. More
than 100 shots we're exchanged.
Fleeing the bank through store
opening off the lobby, the bandits
held Miss Harris and William G.
Daub, assistant cashier, in front OF
them as shields. Mr.. Daub was
forced to carry bag of bonds and
currency snatched from tillS.
Federal agents leading the search
for Dillinger here did not abandon
a belief that the outlaw may be
hiding on Chicago's south side
nursing three serious bullet wounds,
although they concentrated their
efforts toward preventing his re-
entry to the city if he participated
in the Fostoria raid.
