to you for your examination. The detectives were evidently
perfectly well satisfied with what they had seen there, and
of course they left without any further remarks with Mr. Haas.
I went downstairs and conversed with my folks down thereuntil
dinner time, which was served to my father-in-law and my
mother-in-law and my wife and myself by Minola McKnight.
About that time, Mr. and Mrs. Wolfsheimer came in and conversed
with us, Mr. Wolfsheimer telling me that he would take me
downtown that afternoon in his automobile. After dinner, I
telephoned down to the office and telephoned to Mr. Schiff, and
told him to get Mr. Montag's permission for the Pencil Company
to put on a detective, preferably a Pinkerton detective, to
work with and assist the city detectives in ferreting out the
crime, as an evidence of the interest in this matter which the
National Pencil Company was taking. I thought it was no more
than we ought to do, and I also told Mr. Schiff I would be
downtown between half past two and three. After conversing
with my folks, I went around the corner to Wolfsheimer's
house and got in his automobile, and he took me down town
to his place of business, which is situated on Whitehall Street
near Mitchell, and I got out of the automobile there and walked
over to the Forsyth Street plant of the Pencil Factory and
on going into the office, I saw the following men there: Mr.
Herbert Schiff, Mr. Wade Campbell, Mr. Darley-Mr. Holloway
was out in his place in the hall, and Mr. Spiker and Mr.
Quinn and Mr. Zirsanke, these foremen were sitting around there
because we had shut down there, as they told me, due to the
fact that the plant was wholly demoralized, the girls were
running into hysterics, they couldn't stick at their work,
they were crying and going on over what had happened there
