TELLS STORY CONVINCED FROM PACIK ONE and decided he knew her, came aa the first bls defense eurprtae. Previously the garrulous old gentleman better known a , Jafsie. admitted he hud told nil manner of fantaitlc tales regarding the Lindbergh kidnaping to "outsiders.'’ Under ths roaring cross-examin-ation of Edward J. Reilly, chief defender of Bruno Richard Haupt* maun, he declared he could not recall having said that he "knew’’ the baby's body was "brought back’’ to the spot where it was found 73 days after the kidnaping. But he admitted he “might have.” The picture the astute defense was trying to give the jury was that of a talkative man who hat told many contradictory stories to all -who would listen. At the noon recess Bruno Hauptmann's vigorous counsel had not succeeded in breaking down any essentials of his melodramatic story, but it hud succeeded in

“Jafsie” at Trial i I Star witness for the state, Dr. 1 John F. (Jafsie) Condon, ransom intermediary in the kidnaping of t the Lindbergh baby, is pictured ' on his arrival for the trial of £ Bruno Richard Hauptmann at 1 Flemington, N. J. ■———.— ———— t

showing a conflict in Jafede’s i; stories as told to the prosecution f and to friends. i The first attack on the state's t theory that the child was killed e "instantly” during the abduction, and that his body lay in a hastily scraped grave in the Sourlands from the night of March 1, 1932, until it was discovered, 73 days • later, came when Reilly demanded to know whether Jafsie had ever 1 told a newspaper man that the body had been "brought back” to ' the spot. Jafsie admitted he might have made some such remark. At the time the body was dis- £ covered, ii. was remarked that e telephone linemen had passed 8 within a few feet of the “grave" ■while laying their cables, only a ' few days previously. f Thousands of persons had tramped over the muddy Sourlqnd hills searching for traces of the baby. State troopers and New Jersey police, the constabulary 1 hordes of newspapermen 1

ploughed their way over the hill*. Yet none of them had come upon the grave. i it remained for a negro truck ' driver, who wandered by chance i into the bushes, to make the electrifying discovery. Attorney General David T. Wilentz said at the noon recess that he did not regard JaMe's story, as told on the stand, broken down in any essential. “There were many theories regarding the kidnaping,” he said, "and nearly every major figure i connected with the investigation I developed, at one time or another, his own theory. Dr. Condon undoubtedly told many persons his own beliefs, but they are beliefs which are since proved to be i wrong." He indicated that as soon aa he j put Dr. Cundon under a re-direct examination, he would clear up all doubtful points raised by the defense.
