01:25I'm convinced that this man was not murdered in this room.
01:45Have you any idea who's responsible for this, Chief?
01:47I haven't got the slightest clue to work on this yet.
01:50Say, Bill, take a look around, see what you can pick up.
03:08Now listen, I know where this guy's hideout is.
03:12If I could capture him, it'd mean a scoop for the paper and a raise for me.
03:16There's only one thing that might interfere.
03:18Who, Mabel?
03:20Yeah.
03:20No, you fool, the police.
03:23If I could keep him off the trail long enough.
03:27It's a cinch.
03:28Get your head.
03:29Get your head.
03:59The body of a dead man is here.
04:12But he was not murdered in this room.
04:14Come on.
04:28Come on.
04:28Perfect.
04:37The man was murdered here, and his body dragged downstairs.
04:40Come on.
04:41Let's get to work.
04:41Now lie down.
04:59Why?
05:02Well, I have to drag the body downstairs.
05:04I don't want the body dragged downstairs.
05:06Wait a minute.
05:07I'll explain.
05:08As soon as we leave here, I want you to go out and get yourself arrested.
05:11Confess to the murder.
05:12They'll think they have the real murder and stop looking for him.
05:15In the meantime, I'll catch a plane for Arizona where the real murder is hiding out.
05:19I'll capture him, bring him back, and have you released.
05:22Oh, be a pal.
05:27Think what it means to the paper.
05:28It's the biggest scoop there is, and for me, think...
05:31Oh, please, just this little thing for me, won't you?
05:33I'll even split the reward with you.
05:37Reward?
05:37Yeah.
05:38Would my share amount to $98?
05:41Well, sure.
05:42I guess so.
05:42If it doesn't, I'll make up the difference.
05:45Then you sure you'll bring the real guy back and get me out?
05:48Just as sure as you're living.
06:08Hey, come back up here.
06:18Now, here's the gun with an empty shell in it.
06:20They'll find this on you.
06:22Now, lie down so I can drag you downstairs.
06:25But I've already been down.
06:26That's no good.
06:28We've got to leave tracks that look like the body was dragged downstairs.
06:38Now, do you understand?
06:45Go right downtown and get yourself arrested.
06:47I'll do it the first thing in the morning.
06:49Well, that's all right, but don't forget.
06:52I don't like the number of this plane.
06:55I'm not superstitious.
06:57So long.
06:58So long.
07:08Stop, thief!
07:21Yes.
07:24Well, yes.
07:28Yes.
07:32Yes.
07:33Yes.
07:38Yes.
07:41Yes.
07:45Yes.
07:52Yes.
07:57Yes.
08:08Yes.
08:09Yes.
08:10Yes.
08:15Yes.
08:20Yes.
08:29Yes.
08:34You can see what the sign says, can't you?
08:41Well, I'm going to teach you a lot.
08:44Sergeant, I just caught this culprit deliberately tramping on our front lawn, causing great damage to city property.
08:55I didn't deliberately do it, sir. The wind blew my hat off and I went to get it.
08:59Is this your first offense?
09:01Yes, sir.
09:02And I'll let you off this time.
09:18I've come back to tell the truth, sir.
09:20Well?
09:21I deliberately walked on the grass.
09:23I always do, every chance I get.
09:25My boy, you shouldn't do that. But I admire you for being man enough to tell the truth. We need citizens like you, and for that reason I shan't punish you. Now run along.
09:37But I'm a murderer.
09:38Well, well. And who did you murder?
09:40The man I kidnapped, Sam Gordon.
09:45If you shot him, where'd you do it?
09:50I shot him in the attic, and dragged him downstairs.
09:53Lock him up.
09:54We'll go out and investigate.
09:56The prisoner will rise and receive sentence.
10:02It is the judgment of this court that you be delivered to the warden of the state penitentiary, and on the first day of May, hang by the neck until you are dead.
10:12The court dismissed.
10:43Hey, guard!
10:44Oh, guard!
10:45Oh, guard!
10:46Well, what do you want?
10:47I want my window fixed. There's a draft in here.
11:04Is that today's paper?
11:06No, this paper's over two weeks old. I'm just working the crossword puzzle.
11:10Can I see it when you're through with it?
11:14Here, I'm through with that part.
11:16Thanks.
11:40Guard!
11:41Guard!
11:42Guard!
11:43Where is it?
11:44Take me to the warden. I have a confession to make.
11:47Oh, guard.
12:00Oh, no, no.
12:04Guard!
12:06Guard!
12:08Who are you, guard?
12:14That's distracting me to the warden. Where is it?
12:15Give me the warden's office.
12:20All right.
12:22Quick, get your notebooks ready.
12:2414093 is going to confess.
12:32Come in.
12:38Well?
12:40I'm innocent.
12:45I'm innocent.
13:15I'm innocent.

16:45We've been waiting for you.
16:58We spotted them over there in that shack.
17:00Okay, come on, boys.
17:04Ready.
17:05Aim.
17:07Quiet.
17:08We're spotted.
17:11Everybody got guns?

18:07Let's go.
18:08Let's go.
18:09Well, I've checked every lead. That sap never murdered anybody. Why, he's an office boy in a downtown newspaper.
18:16And if he didn't kill him, who did?
18:19Sawed off Madison.
18:21And where is he?
18:23Right here.
18:27Why, that's sawed off Madison.
18:29Grab him, men! Lock him up!
18:35Say, what did you confess for?
18:37For ninety-eight dollars?
18:39Ninety-eight dollars?
18:40Don't make sense, fella. But congratulations.
