Sentenced to Die.
Hauptmann is under sentence to die
the week of March 80, and Gov Hoff-

Zone was barely 48 hours before the
time limit in which the Governor has
said he would be able to reprieve
Hauptmann.
Attorney General David T. Wilentz,
who prosecuted Hauptmann, said at
the time of Condon's sailing for
Panama, that the State had interposed
no objections.
Col. Mark o. Kimberling. warden OF
the New Jersey Prison. will send out
his invitations to the execution about
March 81. Hauptmann will go to the
chair probably on March 81 or April 8.
Kimberling declined to disclose the
exact date.

tective agency" in pursuing his Haurt-
mann inquiry.
Col Kimberling said Hauptmann
and Charles Zeid, Philadelphia gang
ster. will go to the chair the same night
Zeid was convicted last April of killing
