IDENTIFIED AS
MYSTERY MAN

CHICAGO, Aug. 3. U.P)-Mande-
vile w. Zenge was identified today
as the mysterious stranger in Smok-
ed glasses who disappeared from
Ann Arbor simultaneously with the
abduction and mutilation murder of
Dr. Walter j. Bauer.
The Identification was made by
Oren Guiett of Flint, Mich, who
was an out-patient at the univerSi-
ty hospital and who occupied
hotel room adjoining that of the
mysterious stranger who was regis
tered as G. S. Jones but who police
believe was zenge.
zenge maintained his composure
under the additional discriminating
evidence supplied by identification.
Earlier he sought his freedom on
a writ of habeas corpus but the
hearing on the writ was delayed
until Monday.
Guiett was brought here today
from Michigan to aid investigators
in the case and explained to them
that he had seen Jones several
times but never without his smoked
glasses.
Accordingly police made zenge
don a pair of smoked glasses and
dressed him as Guiett said Jones"
was dressed when last he saw him.
Guiett was then led into the room.
Il want 10 see him walk" he
told Investigators
zenge got up out of his chair,
turned his back on Guiett and
started to walk across the room.
"Yes sir, that's the man, there, "
Guiett said
The Identification came after
police had questioned zenge for "a
hours without breaking his calm
denials that he had anything to do
with the abduction and subsequent
mutilation Of DR.. Bauer The vic
tim had been married only three
weeks prior to his death to a pretty
Kirksville. Mo, nurse who had gone
with zenge seven years.
Meanwhile t the Investigation
took a new turn with the an
nouncement that William Leinert, a
cab driver had been seized and
was held incommunicado. Leinert
was the driver in whose cab zenge
was cruising on the west side when
he was arrested yesterday.

ment" would make itself felt in

tive" thus enhancing President
Roosevelt's chances for reelection.

executive secretary, Ambrose o.
Connell, motored into Los Angeles.

night.

ers, including Postmaster H. B. r.

Customs Al Cohn, and U. S. Dis
trict Attorney Pierson Hall, greet
ed him at the boat

MOSCOW, Aug. 3. Three in
trepid Russian aviators, stalking
their lives on a single motored mon
oplane. flew over Arctic wastes to-
day on a $500 mile flight from
Moscow to San Francisco via the
North Pole.
They took off at 6:03 a. m. 7:30
p. m. Friday PSTO from Sholsho-
vski airport with Sigismund Levan-
eVsky, one of the worlds air heroes,
as chief pilot; Victor Levchenko,
co-pilot and navigator; and Boris
Baichukov, radio operator.
Their course was up through the
Arctic and Barent seas, between
Franz Josef Land and Spitzbergern
to the pole and southwark roughly
along the 120th meridian of longi-
tude-over the Canadian Arctic Is
lands. down the wastes Of MacKen-
zie province. then across the lofty,
dangerous Rockies and. down the
coast to Vancouver and San Fran
cisco.
They hoped, averaging a little
better than 80 miles an hour, to
reach San Francisco in 10 hours
by about p. m. Monday, (EST).
There will not be mile nor a
moment during which the three
flyers will not be in danger until
they strike the Pacific coost at a
time when they should be nearing
exhaustion.

waters, barren wastes Of ice, the
deserted stretch of northern Can

Rocky mountains. they had been
preparing for months to face.
For days. all across the top of
the world, Russian, Canadian, Alas
kan and American weather stations
had been flashing messages of the
weather.

last all was ready for the flight.

messages that conditions were good
