Bien d Director, 11/16/39 Im regard to the O'Hare gang killing, it might interest you te note thet the comnon belief of the newspaper fraternity here in Chicago is that the killing repulted from the fact b 4 thet O'Hare was attempting to jilt wio has been 2 ?C his paramour for the last seven years. It appears that O'Hare was extremely active in the operation of dog tracks and race tracks here in the vicinity of Chicago, as well as in Mismi, Florida. Recently, an article appeared in the paper to the effect that a young hoodlum by the name of Stoddard was found in Los Angeles, California, sufferi. from knife wounds in the abdomen and in the a £72 confidentially advised me on November 15th tha ddard was definitely eliminated as being in any way connected with the O'Hare killing and it develops that Stoddard wrote the note supposed to have been found on his person by the Los Angeles Police Department himself. Stoddard previously was « horse exercise boy at the Sportaman's track here in Chicago. Very truly yours WSDrLAT Ww. S. DEVEREAIX 7 Special Agent in Charge 2.
