Chicago police said they believed lhe letter was aulheutc but said they had not definitely established that fact. While that Investigation was underway. la.s Angele* police announced they were convinced that I a letter found on the person of Russell Stoddard. 31, purporting to link him with the slaying, had | been written by Stoddard himself. Stoddard represented himself as having been a bodyguard for O’- ' Hate. He was suffering from sis stab wounds when he told hi* glory ito police. He said two men had alia, ked him ill an alley. His letter, which police said he had iiad his moi her mail to him from Little Rock, Ark., suggested that the Capone gang knew who killed o'Hare. The letter carried a return address of lhe Paddock Lounge, which apparently prompted lhe raid by Kelly's men last night.
