He gave three names within a few minutes when the chief of police was questioning him. Officers from Fort Wayne who took part in the arrest of Cohn were: Pete Junk, Joe Brennan and Fred Fug, detective sergeants, W. L. McCormick, motorcycle officer. Richmond police who were with the Fort Wayne officers at the Westcott were Chief Eversman, Officers Batez, Cully, Graham, Lawler and Hennigar.

In addition to this fact, It was impossible to convict Cohn on the evidence at hand, as it was simplyhis word againsi Ehle's. The fact that Ehle had no money with him and had not lost any through his dealings with Cohn, also made Cohn's conviction difficult. The only crime for which the authorities can refuse to accept bail, when it is offered, is that of ' murder. On the other hand, the state gained SI, 000 at practically no expense.
