SEGREGATION PLANS
PUSHED AT LORT0N
Construction of New Group of
Buildings Will Help,
Hazen SAYS.

Better segregation of prisoners at
the District reformatory at Lorton,
Va, will be accomplished when con-
struction of the walled group" of
buildings is finished, welfare officials
said yesterday. Work has been re-
sumed on the high inclosure wall.
The wall itself now is about half
finished. Two cell blocks have been
built and there are three shops in
the inclosure.
Commissioner Hazen hopes to re-
turn the place to its former standing
as a real reformatory, rather than
prison for hardened criminals. He
hopes there may be made possible
segregation of youthful first offenders
from the older men with repeated
offenses, this to be in addition to
segregation of those who are trouble
makers from those with good deport-
ment.
Originally the reformatory was de-
veloped as an honor institution, with
out wall, but in those days the
tough" prisoners all were sent away
to Federal prisons. In recent years
these prisons have been crowded and
the District was required to confine
its hardened prisoners at Lorton along
with the first offenders.

The marital rift between William j.
Nolan and his wife Alice, which re-

Those arrested were Frank Johnson,

1907 Sixth street. They were arrested
last Saturday and today warrants were
issued charging them with false pre-
lenses.
Detective Sergt. Richard Cox said
Nolan sent some money to certain

offering the information. When ar
rested, johnson and Barrot are alleged
to have admitted writing the notes,

holes in the attic beams from which
the board was reputedly cut.
THE nail holes, the extra ones, "
said Reilly, were deliberately placed
in the board, more than likely by some
investigating agent"
The defense regarded Hudson's s
testimony, both as to the nail holes
and fingerprints on the ladder, as
strengthening Hauptmann's fight
against the charge of Staying the
Lindbergh baby.
"Hauptmann will be virtually free
at the conclusion of today's testi-
mony," said Reilly.
IT have only 10 witnesses left, and
I expect that they will have finished
their testimony by tomorrow, about
noon"
Attorney General WilentZ, however,
held Koehler ready to attack the de-
fense claim of deliberate attempts to
frame" Hauptmann.
To meet the accusation, the prosecu-
ton produced the report which
Koehler submitted in March, 1888, a
year and a half before Hauptmann
was arrested. In it the wood expert
noted the presence OF four nail holes,
and recorded the measurements OF
distances between them.
If the holes had been made as
charged, the prosecution counsel sug-
gested the supposition would be Inat
the State knew of missing attic
floorboard in the Hauptmann house
a year and half before HauptnlaEn
was connected with the case
Hudson'S testimony, the prosecu-
tion asserted, confirmed the conten-
tion the attic floor" upright was part
of the ladder when Hudson examined
it the night of the kidnapping, although
GuStave Miller plumber and an
other defense witness. testified he saw
no board missing in the attic =
month before Hauptmann's arrest
Hudson testified he developed 500
f1ngerprints on the ladder, despite
State police claims only smudges were
found, and made the assertion that
unless the kidnaper wore gloves kiS
fngerprints could have been identi-
fed as long as six months afterWard.
None of the prints was Hauptmann's,
he said.
The expert voiced his belief in
Hauptmann'S innocence for two rea-
sons, expressed out of court.
The first was that both Mrs. Lind
bergh and Betty Cow hardled the
nursery window when they put the
baby to bed, yet five hours later State
troopers found no prints on the win
dow. Therefore. Dr. Hudson thought
the window must have been washed.

interior were displayed amid further
argument.
Through the members of the State
police force the defense brought out
that Hauptmann's fingerprint was not
found on the kidnap ladder.
SjoStrom, an investigator OF the
State police, said 68 photos had been
taken Of the kidnap ladder sections,
revealing 125 finger and palm prints,
of which had been identified.
Prints Not Hauptmann's.
Did, at any time, you identify the
fingerprints of this defendant, Rich
ard Hauptmann?" Fisher asked him.
His answer was NO"
Sjostrom said the State police used
the Hudson process to find finger
prints on the ladder after 1t had been
handled by several hundred persons,
including the crime experts from all
over the country who were invited
by former Gov. A Harry Moore to
join his Crime Commission.
Kubler testified to DR.. HudSon's
visit to the Lindbergh estate, March
II or IA, after the kidnapping, and his
use of the process DR.. Hudson DEM
onstrated.
Kelly testified he had been unable
to find readable prints in the Lind
bergh nursery by using a "black
powder" method.

standees and when he told the camera
men yesterday that they might no
longer enter the court room, was
charged with the painful knowledge
that human beings could sink so low
as to make Roman holiday of this
affair.
He is a quiet, simple man, and a
man of wisdom as well as learning.
He is an industrious scholar, who likes
nothing better than to retire to his
library and devote his leisure hours
to the accumulation of knowledge.
But, for all his erudition, there is a
lovable homely quality about him as
he weighs the problems before him,
and drawls out a mild colloquialism
with his judgments. He is never i'm
patient save when he feels that the
court is being belittled, and he looks
like a benign Santa Claus without
whiskers. If I were wrongfully ac-
cused of a crime, should like to go
on trial before Judge Trenchard, for
I feel that he would unmistakably
know my innocence. If ! were guilty
should prefer trusting my fate to
the vagaries of II jurors rather than
to this man who seems able to read
into the human heart.
Entertainment by Miller.
Reilly's troup of odd witnesses
occupied the stage again yesterday
coming one by one to the stand tc
reveal their bizarre selves, until We
could scarcely believe our eyes an6
ears. Gus Miller. the plumber who
wouldn't testify the day before "be-
cause it was to hot" gave US slightly
hysterical half-hour when he re-
counted in hard-boiled slang his
plumbing activities in the Hauptmanr
home mo, he didn't see no blankets
in the attics. he wasn't lookin' for nc
boards or blankets. he was just lookin
for pipes, see." Wilentz starts to ash
him question, and before the words
are framed, the genial Miller says re-
assuringly, shoot" Shoot" queries
Wilentz politely. with his usual sly
manner of getting unfavorable i'm
presSions across to the jury.
Sure, shoot, go ahead, you know,
says the witness helpfully. and
Wilentz bows and takes up the cross
examination while the audience tit
ters. Gus says he always carries 6
candle and a box of matches because
he is always looking for something
and apparently he never sees any
thing except what he is looking for
which is usually leaky pipes. Called
in from the street by Mrs. Haupt-
mann. he seems to have examined
the broom closet, supposed depository
of the ransom money, with profes-
sional zeal, although in his testimony
he places the fateful pipe in quite
the wrong side of the closet Any
way he saw the dampness, and, like
any good plumber hot on the trai
of leaky pipe, he, according to hi:
own words, shot up to the attic,
complete with candle and matches
Here he groped around busily unit
he found the offending drain, at which
point he discovered that he had tc
go back for more tools, which latter
admission tended greatly to confirm
his credibility as plumber, if not as
witness. He seems to have solved

the whole messy business by leaving
some material behind so that some
body else could repair it.
Both Hauptmanns Smile.
Both the Hauptmanns smiled dur
ing his testimony, and you can't help
wondering how natural their smiles
can be, in spite of Miller's absurd
antics. For he certainly did little
to help their cause.
A taxi driver who testified to ac-
cepting "yelloW-back" bill from
FiSch, and who apparently did not
realize that all the ransom bills were
greenbacks, and a former inmate of
insane asylums, who, when asked If
he had been committed to institutions
eight times, said with pathetic resig-
nation, Lets make 1t five," were
among the other defense witnesses.
A ripple of excited interest ran
through the court room when Gerta
Henkel took the stand. We have all
been wondering what this girl was like,
and how she would differ from the
phlegmatic, patient wife of Haupt-
manns bosom. Well, she is different.
there is no doubt of that. In fact,
she appears to be everything that
Mrs. Hauptmann is not. Trim, saucy,
very cock-Sure of herself, she tripped
to the witness stand, chewed gum as
she took her oath upon the Bible, and
seated herself in the chair still chew
ing gum, as though she were about
to attend an interesting matinee. She
winked once or twice in the direction
of the Hauptmanns, she seemed at
one point to be attempting to vamp
Justice Trenchard, she was sprightly
in all her words and actions, and COM
pletely nonchalant in her casual
"uh-huhs" and "yops" and "yeps."
WiIentz Is Baked.
Hauptmann had coffee with her
often, because as she cheerfully ex-
planned, IT like my coffee" Appar-
emily she liked her Hauptmann, too,
or else Hauptmann liked her coffee,
and anyway, she didn't mind telling
the world that they often had coffee
together, Sure, you said it," so that
even the willy Wilentz was unable to
cast a slur upon these innocent break
fasts. Still chewing gum, she almost
danced off the witness stand, dainty
and inconSequential bit of thistledown
blown unaccountably into this dark
room.
At least she was another friend to
Hauptmann, who presumably had
nothing to gain by taking the stand in
his defense, and if ever he needed
friends he needs them now. His wife
knows this. and all jealousy laid aside
for the time, she smiled approvingIy
at Gerta's words, and as her former
rival left the stand, and Hauptmann
leaned beamingly toward his wife and
said shes still just the same, isn't
she?" She glowed in response and
said with real feeling, "Yes, she is
cute, isn't she?"
Among all the strange juxtapositions
OF the trial, the Transformation of rival
into bosom friend and defender is not
the least strange.

ladder with his silver nitrate method

prints after several hundred people
had handled the ladder.
WilentZ insisted that Col Charles
A. Lindbergh, father of the slain child,
and two State troopers had handled
the ladder without gloves and that DR..
Hudson had found no prints of these.
The witness said he believed the troop
ers used gloves He didn't know that
Col Lindbergh had handled the
ladder.
He said he did not identify the
prints he found
WilentZ could not get him to say
that Hauptmann's fingerprints, had
they been on the ladder, would have
been obliterated by others superim-
posed later.
"Supposing that Mr.. Hauptmann
had his hands on this rail and then
this ladder was taken down to Gov
ernor'S crime conference and officials
from all over the country started ex-
amining the ladder and one fellow
happened to put his fingers just about
where the other fingers were, that

Hauptmann's fingerprints, wouldn' t

tigation as rail 16," to Dr. Hudson,
asked:
And if it was a part of the piece
of wood that was in the attic. then
it came from Hauptmanns' attic"
"YeS, sir" the witness agreed.
He explained he obtained no finger
prints from the Lindbergh nursery
window because his method did not
work on painted surfaces.
Uncertain About Notes.
DR.. Hudson at first said he made
notes on nail holes in the ladder, but
later testified he didn't know if he did.
The attorney general showed him
a ladder upright, pointed to nail holes.
do you remember that nail hole
when you saw it?" he asked.
mo, sir" said DR.. Hudson, that
nail hole wasn't there" He pointed
to another. "Those two nail holes
were not there when I saw the lad

Are you sure about that?"
"Yes, sir"
A third nail hole was shown to him
Il will say to the best of my knowl-
edge and belief" he testified, that
hole was not there"
TO the best of your knowledge and
belief? Will you swear it wasn't there,
or don't you know?"
I can say"
How near is that?"
THAT the hole wasn't there"
The celebrated Lindbergh kidnap
ladder was back in its controversial
place in the trial of Hauptmann as
the basis for charge of frame up
by defense attorneys against investi-
gators in the case.
DR.. Hudson, who was called back
to the witness stand, told the jury he
had noticed only one nail hole in the
ladder upright which the State asserts
was cut from a board in Hauptmann'S s
attic.
His testimony was in opposition to
that given by Arthur j. Koehler,
Federal wood expert, and other State
witnesses, that the upright was
pierced by four nail holes matching
