in the b st of health on account of
recurring attacks of appendicitis,
with the recent attacks he has been
compelled to go to the hospital, which
he did at Lincoln early last week j or

its correction. He rallied nicely fol
lowing the operation and has been
showing good improvement since.
Archie M. "Buddy"' Jenkins of
Houston, Tex., said by police to have
admitted ownership of a pistol which
has been identified by ballistics ex
perts as the weapon used to kill An
gelo Sivigliano, will be taken to
Glenwood, la., today. Ho will be
charged with slaying Sivigliano, de
clared County Attorney W. W. Gil
lilland of Glenw'ood, who conferred
with Omaha officials Friday after
noon. Two other Texans arrested with
Jenkins at a local hotel Thursday,
Ralph Arnold of Dallas and C. J.
Hester of Houston, also will be taken
to Glenwood. Gillilland said. The
county attorney and Sheriff DeMoss
of Glenwood will come to Omaha for
the three prisoners this morning.
"Tho findings of the Omaha police
ballistics expert are sufficiently con
clusive to warrant filing charges
against Jenkins," Gillilland said Fri
day night. "There seems to bo no
doubt that the gun found in his pos
session was the one used to kill
Sivigliano."
To Check Up All Three.
More than one man probably took
part in the killing, Gillilland pointed
out. For that reason Jenkins com-
panions will be taken to Glenwood
as suspects.
Iowa officials will check up the
ipplaue. When we came away i movements of the trio on last Satur-
the score had not been counted, but (day night, when the Sivigliano nur
it was confidently expected that thejder was committed, in an effort to
count would be completed by next
Saturday.

Jenkins rnd two other Texans
were arrested here Thursday in a
general roundup of strangers follow
in? the Whitey Petty murder. Guns
were found in the possession of all
three, but only Jenkins gun fires
bullets that correspond with the ones
that killed Sivigliano, police say.
SoagLt for Texas JIurder.
Police are now checking any con
nections Jenkins and Sivigliano may
have had in Houston. Sivigliano
was wanted in Houston for murder,
and is Faid to have operated there
for some time.
Sivieliano was wanted for the
murder of W. L. Edwards in Hous
ton in May, 1930. It was Houston's
first "ride murder." One suspect,
John Belois, turned state's evidence
and named Sivigliano and Sam Per
retta as the killers. Both vanished.
Bolois testified against one other
man, accused as an accomplice, but
that man was acquitted.
Key Witness Slain.
Eight months ago, in Kansas City,
Belcis was murdered. Sivigliano and
Perretta were sought as suspects but
no trace was found of either until
Sivigliano was found murdered.
Jenkins, too was questioned con
cerning the Edwards murder, It is
said, but soon released. A year ago
Jenkins was again questioned as a
murder suspect, this time for the kill
ing of Chester A. "Keggy" Jones.
Again he was released.
Jenkins denies ho knew Sivigliano.
"Ccmpariseope" Tells Story.
Friday morning tho guns taken
from the three men were fired once
The bullet from Jenkins' gun was
put into the "compariscope," oppos
ite one of the bullets from Sivig
liano's bory.
Magnified by powerful lenses, the
riflings on the two bullets stood out
plainly. According to Detective Ron
ald McDonald, the police ballistics
expert, these bullet "fingerprints"
are as accurate as human finger
prints; no two guns leave exactly
tho same markings.
The riflings cn the bullet from
Jenkins' g'in and the b.illet from
Sivigliano's body correspond exactly.
MacDonald and Inspector Danbaum
