to guess at the countless hours the

was in bed. Langdon said NO,
I was watching her
II then said to Langdon,
I've been told you went in one
morning while she was in bed.
Didn't you tell her then that
you had been arrested several
years before for having q couple
Of kegs of liquor in your auto
mobile?' Langdon said he had
not made the statement to her
but she had asked him If he
was the same man. I then told
Langdon that / had information
that he had told her he had
once killed a girl on the row.,
and he denied this.
asked Langdon II he had
gone in the house and on one
occasion asked Beulah not to tell
that he had been there. Lang
don admitted that he had, and
when I asked him why he had
done this, he said that he knew
she had written down the names
Of a lot Of police officers and de-
tectives and had their cards and
he didn't want other people in
the department to know his bust
ness.
RECEIVED VISITOR IN BED
Langdon said that once when
he went into the house Beulah
was in bed and Q man was sit
ting in the room. I asked him to
describe this man and he said
that the man was about SIS years
old, tall, dark, thin, wore pince
nez glasses, was well dressed and
appeared to be Jewish.
Odd there come time
when you interviewed LAngdon
along these lines again?
Al interviewed Langdon
again that night and asked him
about the same questions, and
he gave the same answers until
I asked him about this man he
had seen in Beulah'S room and
whom he had said was a man
named Edwards; and said
to him, "Langdon, since I saw
you this morning we have
found this man Edwards and
have questioned him, but his
description that you gave this
morning is sort of haZy in our
minds. VIII you give it to us
again?"
STORY DIFFERS
Langdon then described the
man as being about 30 or IS
years old, blonde and stout, and
then turned Langdon over to
Lieutenant Flaherty for uues-
tioning, and Flaherty said,
'Langdon, isn't it possible that
you were in Beulah's house the
night she was killed, and while
she was lying in bed you were
twirling your pistol in your
hand telling her what a tough
man you are; and the gun acct
dentally exploded; and the
bullet struck her; and you
fixed her up the way she was
found because, being a police
officer, YOU could not afford to
let the circumstances of your
visit there be known"
Langdon said, mo, I would
have stayed and faced it,"
A prolonged huddle. at the
bench followed, and Defense
Attorney Kelly took up the
cross-examination.
Q.-InSpector, referring again
to the question Lieutenant Fla
herty asked Langdon, in which
he reconstructed the details of
a possible crime, were not these
the exact words?
Attorney Kelly then read
from a typewriter paper long
hypothetical question contain
ing more details and concluded:
ITO which Langdon replied,
that is a foolish question"
MORE ACCURATE

the stenographic record of the
inquest at the Morgue seven

ahlV more accurate.

Ayes, sir. While we were

man leave the house that morn
ing between / and 2 O'Clock, he
said around 4 o'clock he went
, up to the doorway and flashed
his light in the front room and
saw Beulah on the bed appar-
emily asleep. When we arrived
at headquarters I asked him to
describe the man who left.
Langdon said he heard a door
slam and saw a tall slender
man with Sideburns and wear.
ing a derby hat leave the place.
Langdon said there had been dis
order in the house from time to
time and he followed the man
thinking he was going to get a
jar Of whiskey, but that the
man went to BANDS lunch
room.
Odd you question Lang
don further.
Ayes. I questioned Lang

said her cot was pulled up near
the stove. The fire was burn.
ing in the stove and her bare
feet were near the freight.
He said he could tell by the
glow on her feet that she was
alive.
"UNDER OBSERVATION"
I asked him why he had gone
to the house on that particular
night and he said he had had
the house under observation for
some time and just stopped by
to see what was going on there.
He said that on two previous
occasions after residents in the
neighborhod had complained he
had investigated the house and
had noted obscene conduct tax
ing place in the kitchen. I
asked him why he had not made
an arrest and he said that it
would have been necessary to
call the neighboring residents
to witness the conduct, and then
take them to court to make a
case and that he was awaiting
a better opportunity.
II then said to Langdon:

house this morning Beulah's
