00:00:00The End
00:00:30The End
00:01:00Yes, Mr. Prescott. I know. You're the king of the jungle.
00:01:18Oh, everybody knows me. Can't have any fun around here.
00:01:22What'll it be?
00:01:24Bourbon. Straight bourbon for everybody.
00:01:26I'm king of the jungle.
00:01:35That'll be a dollar, Mr. Prescott. And it's closing time.
00:01:38Don't rush me.
00:01:41That's a lot of money to be carrying around, Mr. Prescott.
00:01:44Only ten grand. I'll tell you ten times more than that without losing a dime.
00:01:49I don't believe them, Banks. I tried them, see?
00:01:51I'm going to paint the towel red tonight. Yes, sir.
00:01:58And when Sam Prescott paints the towel...
00:02:00Much of right.
00:02:01And when Sam Prescott paints the towel red, he won't get home until morning.
00:02:06I won't get home until morning.
00:02:18Maybe I won't get home at all.
00:02:23Here's your chance, mister. Ask him.
00:02:26Well, what is it, friend? What's on your mind?
00:02:28The town's full of conventions. The guy can't get a room.
00:02:31Well, who says he can't? He can use mine.
00:02:34Any friend of Sam Prescott's is a friend of mine.
00:02:37Follow me, friend. Just follow me.
00:02:41I'm kidding you, the jungle!
00:02:50That's right.
00:02:52Now take a deep breath.
00:02:53Ready?
00:02:54Now, no fair cheating.
00:02:56A deep breath, I said.
00:02:57That's right.
00:02:58Inhale.
00:02:59Exhale.

00:03:26Look, now, I've got 26 rooms to clean and I can't upset my schedule.
00:03:34Please, Mr. Prescott, don't be difficult.
00:03:37Mr. Prescott.
00:03:38Pardon me. Excuse me sir. Come in. Excuse me folks. Train's crowded. I wonder if a young
00:03:58lady could sit here for a spell. Oh I guess so. Thank you sir.
00:04:08Are you married? You see this is my first trip to New York. I was just married too. I mean you folks know what I mean.
00:04:33Yeah. So you were just married. Uh-huh. I guess it's pretty obvious. Well go on. Tell us all about it. When did you first meet him?
00:04:47Well I was working in a little restaurant in Grantsville, Ohio. That's where I live. One day he just came in.
00:04:55Love at first sight eh? No. No I didn't even pay much attention to him. You're strange.
00:05:03I remember our first date. I didn't want to go. But somehow that night I just found myself waiting for him.
00:05:11We just walked. He didn't say much. It's hard to explain. But I felt that same strangeness.
00:05:19You mean you only met this man three times and then married him.
00:05:31Uh-huh. What's he do for a living? Uh he sells something or other. I really don't know.
00:05:38And he left you right after you were married? He was called away on business.
00:05:43It's almost as if you had married a stranger, isn't it?
00:05:45Call for Mr. King.

00:07:30What's the matter, Millie?
00:07:34I just don't know how to tell you.
00:07:37Tell me what?
00:07:39What are you doing here? You got my letter.
00:07:43What letter?
00:07:44Well, why are you here?
00:07:48My husband sent for me.
00:07:50Your husband?
00:07:55I'm married, Freda.
00:07:57I didn't...
00:08:01Do I know him?
00:08:03I don't think so.
00:08:05His name is Paul Baxter.
00:08:08When were you married?
00:08:10A month ago, in Grantsville.
00:08:13What are you doing here at the Sherwin? This is a salesman's hotel.
00:08:16Paul's a salesman.
00:08:18So am I, remember? That's the reason you wouldn't marry me.
00:08:30Paul apparently was a better salesman.
00:08:33Congratulations.
00:08:37Fred, what did you write in that letter?
00:08:40Oh, it doesn't matter now.
00:08:54Yes?
00:08:56Yes, Mrs. Baxter.
00:08:58No, Mrs. Baxter.
00:09:00Yes, I'll put all calls through, no matter how late.
00:09:03Anything for me, Charlie?
00:09:06Oh.
00:09:08No, sorry, not a thing.
00:09:10Hey, Charlie, take a look at this, will you?
00:09:12Take a look at this, will you?
00:09:42Oh, oh, my goodness.
00:09:43Yes, sir.
00:09:45No, you, Billy.
00:09:46Yes, sir.
00:09:50No, that's enough.
00:09:51You saw you so.
00:09:53That,รขn.
00:09:54No.
00:09:56Yes, sir.
00:09:58A few times before you time in...
00:10:02Yes, sir.

00:12:04Oh, no, Fred, please, I couldn't eat
00:12:06Oh, come on, have some coffee or something
00:12:08Nothing
00:12:10I'm terribly worried about Paul
00:12:16You're sure he knew you were coming?
00:12:18Well, he sent me this telegram
00:12:22I've been making calls all morning
00:12:24I even checked the hospitals
00:12:26Well, it's sent from Philadelphia
00:12:28It's only a couple of hours from here by train
00:12:30I know
00:12:32I wish there was something I could do
00:12:34Well, there's the police
00:12:36Police?
00:12:38Well, the Bureau of Missing Persons
00:12:40How do I get there?
00:12:42Come on
00:12:44Oh, but I don't want to take you from your work, Fred
00:12:46Oh, that'll keep

00:12:56Homicide Squad
00:12:57Yeah?
00:12:58He hired me to meet him here yesterday morning
00:12:59And he hasn't shown up
00:13:00No, you've got the wrong department
00:13:01This is homicide
00:13:02The Missing Persons Bureau is down the hall to your left
00:13:04Well, can't you help us?
00:13:16All right, I'll take the information
00:13:19Bill
00:13:21Your name?
00:13:22Mildred Baxter
00:13:23Husband's name?
00:13:24Paul Baxter
00:13:25And your address?
00:13:26The Sherwin Hotel
00:13:28When was the last time you saw your husband?
00:13:30The day we were married, a month and four days ago
00:13:33Where was this?
00:13:34In Grantsville, Ohio
00:13:35Under what circumstances did he leave you?
00:13:37Well, he had to come back to New York on business
00:13:40Well, who does he work for?
00:13:42I don't know
00:13:44Well, do you know what sort of business he's in?
00:13:46Oh, yes, he's a salesman
00:13:48How'd you meet him?
00:13:49We used to come into the restaurant where I worked
00:13:52How long did you know him before you got married?
00:13:54Four months
00:13:55And how many times during these four months did you actually see him?
00:14:01Three times
00:14:02You mean you only saw this man three times then married him?
00:14:05Yes
00:14:07Do you have a photo?
00:14:09No
00:14:10Can you describe him?
00:14:11Oh, yes, he's 34
00:14:13About six feet tall with dark hair and dark eyes
00:14:17Any distinguishing marks such as scars, moles, birthmarks?
00:14:22I don't know
00:14:23I don't think so
00:14:24How was he dressed the last time you saw him?
00:14:26Oh, he was wearing a dark suit with a white shirt and sort of a dark tie
00:14:32Anything else you can tell me?
00:14:34You will find him, won't you?
00:14:37We'll do our best
00:14:39But you've practically married a stranger
00:14:41Thank you, Lieutenant
00:14:43Thank you, Lieutenant
00:14:53You want me to turn this over to the Missing Persons Bureau?
00:14:55I'll handle
00:14:56You?
00:14:57A telegram was sent from Philadelphia
00:14:58The night of the convention murder
00:14:59You think maybe that's
00:15:00I don't think anything
00:15:01Chuck Western Union, Philadelphia
00:15:02Chuck Western Union, Philadelphia
00:15:19Excuse me
00:15:21You can go, Fred
00:15:23Go on, go ahead
00:15:24You don't have to stay here with me
00:15:25I have no place to go
00:15:27I know you better
00:15:29Ah, this is like old times back in Grantsville
00:15:34I don't know what I'm gonna do, Fred
00:15:38I can't go back to Grantsville
00:15:40You don't have to, Millie
00:15:41New York's a big place
00:15:42I can't stay here
00:15:43I'd be looking for him every place I go
00:15:46The places are all alike, Millie
00:15:48You can't run away from yourself
00:15:50Hello?
00:16:01Oh, Paul
00:16:04Oh, darling
00:16:05It's so good to hear your voice
00:16:08Where are you?
00:16:09What's happened?
00:16:11Oh, come right over, darling
00:16:12Right away
00:16:16But why?
00:16:18Why?
00:16:20Why?

00:16:26I'll come to you, darling
00:16:27Tell me where, please
00:16:28Please, Paul
00:16:33Go on a seventh and bleaker
00:16:36I'm leaving right away
00:16:40Bye, darling
00:16:46Why don't they come here?
00:16:47I don't know, I don't care
00:16:50I don't care
00:16:52Seventh and bleaker
00:16:53Isn't a very healthy neighborhood
00:16:54I'd better come along
00:16:55No, thanks, Fred
00:17:20Oh, Fred
00:17:34I couldn't let you come along
00:17:35I couldn't let you come along
00:17:37He's in there... in there
00:17:39In there.
00:17:43He's gone.
00:17:47Who's gone?
00:17:48It's a different man.
00:17:52You're sure you saw him?
00:17:54Well, he was sitting right in that chair.
00:17:59Come on, we'll get a cab.
00:18:09Good morning.
00:18:11Mr. Graham, you're looking for Mrs. Baxter. She just checked out.
00:18:14That's right, just about five minutes ago.
00:18:16Did she leave any forwarding address?
00:18:18No.
00:18:19Did anyone come for her?
00:18:20No.
00:18:21There was a telephone call, though, just a few minutes before she checked out.
00:18:25Thanks.
00:18:39No.
00:18:40Hello, Milly.
00:18:41Yes, you're here.
00:18:43Hello, Mellie.
00:19:08Paul!
00:19:13Paul, I've been so worried, so upset.
00:19:29Why didn't you meet me last night?
00:19:30Now, now, baby.
00:19:32There's nothing to be worried and upset about.
00:19:40Everything is all right.
00:19:43Sure.
00:19:49Why didn't you meet me last night?
00:19:52Well, I asked you to come by yourself last night, Mellie.
00:19:56Oh, that was Fred.
00:19:58He's staying at the show, and I used to know him in Grantsville.
00:20:01I think I told you about him.
00:20:02He used to go through there on business.
00:20:04Does he know where you are now?
00:20:05I, I, you told me not to tell anyone.
00:20:15Why don't you let the sun in?
00:20:17Do you know something?
00:20:36I haven't had a thing to eat since night before last.
00:20:39I'm starving.
00:20:40Well, I'm sorry there isn't a thing in a place to eat.
00:20:43Well, I'll tell you what we'll do.
00:20:44I know.
00:20:44I'll go out and buy something.
00:20:46I'll be right back.
00:20:46I'll be right back.
00:20:57I'll be right back.
00:21:00I'll be right back.
00:21:02Paul!
00:21:27Paul!
00:21:32Paul!
00:21:32I thought you were out.
00:21:41No.
00:21:42You look nice.
00:21:51Oh, Paul, the person who lived here before left his card in our mailbox.
00:21:55No, he didn't.
00:21:56But the name is more on our box.
00:21:58Well, I use that name sometimes.
00:22:01Well, why?
00:22:02Huh?
00:22:03Why?
00:22:05What business reasons?
00:22:09Who's that?
00:22:12I don't know who was here when I moved in.
00:22:24Well, let's go.
00:22:26Go?
00:22:27Go where?
00:22:28I just got the groceries.
00:22:29We're going to eat.
00:22:29The groceries will keep.
00:22:30I've decided to take you out and feed you.
00:22:32But...
00:22:33And then you, Hick.
00:22:34I'm going to show you the city of New York.
00:22:37Oh, that's wonderful.
00:22:39I want to see all of New York.
00:22:41And do you know what I'd like to do after that?
00:22:45What?
00:22:45I'd like to see Coney Island.
00:22:48Coney Island?
00:22:49All right.
00:22:52Then we will see Coney Island, too.
00:22:54Hello?
00:23:04Yeah, look.
00:23:07See you.
00:23:08Oh, Dad.
00:23:08Oh, Dad.
00:23:09Oh, Dad.

00:23:45Don't only be educated, but amused also.
00:23:49Now, ladies and gentlemen, step right up and come in a little closer, please.
00:23:52Each and every one of you.
00:23:54For ten cents, one thin dime, the tenth part of the dollar,
00:23:58I'll tell you who you are and what you do in three guesses.
00:24:03Nothing embarrassing.
00:24:05I'll try it.
00:24:06Thank you, madam. Thank you.
00:24:08Step right up.
00:24:11Now, I'll tell you what I'll do.
00:24:14If I don't guess in three guesses,
00:24:17this beautiful prize is yours absolutely free of charge.
00:24:24Ah, let me see. Let me see.
00:24:28She's a pianist, right?
00:24:30No.
00:24:31She's a stenographer, right?
00:24:41No.
00:24:41I've got it. She's a nurse, right?
00:24:52That's right.
00:24:53I've got it. I've got it.
00:24:56Now, who's next? Don't be bashful. Don't be bashful.
00:24:59Remember, folks, it's entertainment and it's also education.
00:25:03I want to try.
00:25:04Thank you so much.
00:25:08You were just married. Next.
00:25:10As a wedding present to this young couple,
00:25:17I am going to guess what this young man does absolutely free of charge.
00:25:23Step right up, brother.
00:25:24Come on.
00:25:27It's just a little entertainment.
00:25:29Hugo won't hurt you.
00:25:30He's a reporter, right?
00:25:34No.
00:25:36He's a lawyer, right?
00:25:39Nope.
00:25:41He works in a bank, right?
00:25:44No.
00:25:47I can't guess what you do.
00:25:50It's the first time I've ever missed, stranger.
00:25:51Here you are.
00:25:52Well, everybody is up to have a miss now and then.
00:26:07Paul.
00:26:09Yeah?
00:26:10I'd like to invite someone to dinner.
00:26:13Who?
00:26:14Fred Graham. I told you about him. He's...
00:26:16Yes, I remember him.
00:26:20Hey, give me my mark.
00:26:21No, it's my marble.
00:26:24No!
00:26:27Kids squabbling over marbles.
00:26:30In 20 years from now, they'll still be squabbling.
00:26:32But over money instead of marbles.
00:26:35People don't change much, do they?
00:26:37Will Tuesday be all right?
00:26:39I'd rather you didn't, Millie.
00:26:41But I owe an awful lot to Fred.
00:26:44Well, maybe you do, but...
00:26:46I don't want him over.
00:26:50I do.
00:26:51I don't.
00:26:57Come on over here.
00:27:01Come on.
00:27:02Come on.
00:27:02I'm mad.
00:27:16You know that, don't you?
00:27:24Your eggs are burning.
00:27:25You know that, don't you?
00:27:26Mm-hmm.
00:27:31You're still mad?
00:27:33A little.
00:27:34The Philadelphia silk-stalking murder...
00:27:37What did you say?
00:27:39Nothing.
00:27:41Jacob Houser, hotel bartender, who can identify the killer, has left Philadelphia for an undisclosed destination.
00:27:47Jacob Houser's sole witness in the meeting of the president's...
00:27:48Jacob Houser's sole witness in the meeting of the president's...
00:27:51Where are you going?
00:27:53I've got to make a call, Millie.
00:27:54I'll see you later.
00:27:55Right.
00:27:55I tell you, he tried to kill me.
00:28:05It only missed me by that much.
00:28:08I tell you, he tried to kill me.
00:28:10It might have been accidental.
00:28:11Did you get a look at the man who was driving the truck?
00:28:13No.
00:28:14But why should anyone want to murder me?
00:28:17Maybe you know too much.
00:28:18You mean...
00:28:19Well, it's a pity that you can't remember the name of the hotel.
00:28:23Like I said, I caught a peek at the guy's suitcase when he left the bar with Prescott.
00:28:29The label said Hotel something or other.
00:28:32New York City.
00:28:33That's what I said.
00:28:34That's what I said.
00:28:36Can't you tell me something more about the man?
00:28:37Well, like I said, he was still a salesman of some kind.
00:28:44He was around six foot tall.
00:28:47He had dark hair, dark eyes, and he had on a dark suit.
00:28:50Dark eyes, dark hair, and a dark suit.
00:28:53There are thousands of men who fit that description here in New York.
00:28:56Yeah, that makes it tough.
00:28:59If you could only remember that hotel label on the killer's suitcase.
00:29:05I can't.
00:29:07Your life may depend on it.
00:29:16I can't.
00:29:19I can't.
00:29:20Your life may depend on it.
00:29:27That's it.
00:29:28Sure, that's it.
00:29:30Are you sure?
00:29:31Sure.
00:29:37She checked out early yesterday morning.
00:29:50Did her husband ever show up?
00:29:51No, not that I know of.
00:29:53Was Mrs. Baxter friendly with anyone in the hotel?
00:29:55Yes, uh, Fred Graham.
00:29:58I, uh, I think you'll find him downstairs in the, uh...
00:30:02Oh, the city's a nice place to live in all right, but I'll take a home in the country any time.
00:30:10Well, no, that depends upon what you call living.
00:30:13Well, you can't raise kids in the city.
00:30:15Why do you know everybody isn't married?
00:30:17Hmm.
00:30:18Everyone should be.
00:30:19Well, sometimes things just don't work out the way you peg it.
00:30:24Well, the whole ball game's coming along.
00:30:26We're playing a doubleheader today.
00:30:28We've still got time to see the second game.
00:30:30Oh, I'd sure like to see it.
00:30:32Let's go.
00:30:33No, I've got to get back to headquarters.
00:30:35You're going to get a rub down?
00:30:37Oh, I might as well.
00:30:38Yeah, come on.
00:30:38I can't promise you anything as exciting as the ball game, Mr. Graham,
00:30:45but I think you'll get a kick out of this.
00:30:46Make yourself at home.
00:30:51This was a case I'd worked on a couple of years ago.
00:30:57Albert Foster.
00:30:58He was a mild little sales clerk who wouldn't harm a soul.
00:31:01He was pulling down 35 a week, and he was happy with it.
00:31:04And then, one day, Albert fell in love.
00:31:08Hmm, cute kid.
00:31:09Albert talked Dolly into marrying him.
00:31:12Promised to the moon, told he was making big money.
00:31:15In order to make good in his promises,
00:31:16Albert stayed late at the store one night
00:31:18when everyone had gone home.
00:31:20Everyone but Albert's employer,
00:31:22Mr. Simmons.
00:31:24And while the boss was figuring up the day's takings,
00:31:26Albert sneaked up behind him
00:31:27and hit him over the head with a fire axe.
00:31:29He hit him three times, Mr. Graham,
00:31:31splitting the skull wide open.
00:31:33And then Albert grabbed the money,
00:31:35left town taking Dolly with him.
00:31:37Did you have a catcher?
00:31:39Yes.
00:31:40We caught him.
00:31:42After he'd killed three more people with the same axe.
00:31:47Robert Fisk.
00:31:49Herbert Keynes.
00:31:51Ernest Boyd.
00:31:56Well, you tell a good story, Lieutenant.
00:31:58I had a good reason, Mr. Graham.
00:32:01I dare say you've read about the silk stocking murder in Philadelphia.
00:32:03Mm-hmm.
00:32:05Killer got away with $10,000.
00:32:08A man who murders once for money will go on murdering for money like Albert Foster.
00:32:12Yes, I suppose.
00:32:15Where's Mrs. Baxter?
00:32:16I don't know.
00:32:21The desk clerk said you were pretty friendly with her.
00:32:24Are you sure you don't know where she is?
00:32:27I told you I didn't.
00:32:29I hadn't finished.
00:32:30Do you mind?
00:32:30There's one more slide.
00:32:36Sidney Johnson.
00:32:38The friend who covered up for Albert Foster.
00:32:42Sidney told us that Albert left the store with him at six o'clock.
00:32:45That held us up long enough for Albert to commit three more murders.
00:32:47Good day, Mr. Graham.
00:32:57Fred!
00:32:57What are you doing here?
00:32:59I thought I'd drop in and tell the lieutenant I found Paul.
00:33:02Let's get out of here.
00:33:06He wanted to know where you were living.
00:33:08But didn't you tell him I found Paul?
00:33:11Well, I think he wants him for another reason.
00:33:13What other reason?
00:33:16What other reason?
00:33:17Well, it was some sort of trouble in Philadelphia.
00:33:21What kind of trouble?
00:33:23He didn't say.
00:33:26Well, whatever it is, I'm sure Paul had nothing to do with it.
00:33:29Of course he didn't.
00:33:33Millie, hasn't Paul told you anything?
00:33:36Well, he's worried about something.
00:33:40He doesn't want to talk about it.
00:33:44Where does Paul work?
00:33:46The Anderson Chirp Company.
00:33:47Oh, Anderson.
00:33:49They're right up the street from us.
00:33:51Listen, I'll check with them and see if I can find anything out.
00:33:53Where can I reach it, Mike?
00:33:56I'll call you.
00:33:57Okay, Millie.
00:33:58Anytime after eight.
00:33:59Do you like it?
00:34:04It was a bargain.
00:34:06I know I shouldn't have, but...
00:34:07Well, I can take it back.
00:34:13Keep it.
00:34:14It's nice.
00:34:15Do you really like it.
00:34:16Do you really like it?
00:34:16Are you sure?
00:34:17I'm sure.
00:34:18I really like it.
00:34:20Certainly took you a long time to find it, though.
00:34:22I spend most of the time window shopping.
00:34:25I ran into Fred Graham.
00:34:26I didn't tell him where we live.
00:34:29Oh, here, let me...
00:34:30When will you be leaving town?
00:34:39Fred can hardly wait, huh?
00:34:41Oh, seriously, Paul.
00:34:43Can't you take me with you?
00:34:45Seriously, I can't take you with me.
00:34:47Why not?
00:34:47Oh, love, sweetie, you know I can't drag you all over the country,
00:34:51eating in one-arm joints and sleeping in third-rate hotels.
00:34:54Can't you take me along when you make the big cities
00:34:56like Pittsburgh, Boston, Philadelphia?
00:34:59That's not my territory.
00:35:01Oh, but that telegram you sent me, wasn't that from Philadelphia?
00:35:04Oh, for sure.
00:35:05I wrote that between trains passing through.
00:35:09Look, let's get out of here.
00:35:11Have dinner and take in a movie.
00:35:13All right, I'm ready.
00:35:14Get your coat.
00:35:17Here we go.
00:35:36That was a good show.
00:35:37Give it a while.
00:35:38I'll, too, please.
00:35:39Oh, thank you.
00:35:43We're getting all right at the finish, you know.
00:35:45Oh, thank you.
00:35:45I'm sure I'll see you.
00:35:47It's a real thing, Mike.
00:35:51I haven't much time to put it over, but I'm not sure I like it.
00:36:11Hello?
00:36:12Oh, Millie?
00:36:13Yeah.
00:36:13I checked with the Anderson Shirt Company.
00:36:16They haven't got a thing against Paul.
00:36:17He was one of their best men.
00:36:23What do you mean, he was?
00:36:25Well, he gave up his job a few days ago.
00:36:28Yeah, that's right.
00:36:30No, they can't understand why.
00:36:31You just mailed them a small bunch of orders from stores
00:36:33they've been trying to get for years.
00:36:35Yeah, I know them myself.
00:36:36They're the best accounts in Philadelphia.
00:36:37They're the best accounts in Philadelphia.
00:36:39Oh, yeah.
00:36:40We're looking for something else.
00:36:41I've always got a little bit of money.
00:36:42They're just going to have a little bit of money.
00:36:43I'm all about to give up all these days.
00:36:43I'm going to have a little bit of money.
00:36:44I've never seen it.
00:36:46Oh, yeah, I've never seen it.
00:36:47I've never seen it.
00:36:48Yeah, I've never seen it.
00:36:49I've never seen it yet.
00:36:50I have never seen it.
00:36:56OK, man.
00:36:59Oh, yeah.
00:37:00Oh, yeah.
00:37:02Oh, yeah.
00:37:02Oh, yeah.
00:37:03Oh, yeah.
00:37:04Do you have a Philadelphia paper?
00:37:30No, we ain't got them.
00:37:31Are you sure?
00:37:32Yeah, pretty sure.
00:37:34Could you look?
00:37:37What date?
00:37:41August 12th.
00:37:43No, we ain't got that one.
00:37:46Would you please look?
00:37:51August 12th.
00:38:04Do you want coffee?
00:38:12What'll it be?
00:38:12Nothing.
00:38:13I'll be right back.
00:38:36Paper, mister?
00:38:45Do you have a Philadelphia paper?
00:38:46August 12th.
00:38:57I got your call, Millie. What's up?
00:39:01Oh, yes. I know about that. Blake told him.
00:39:03What did he...
00:39:04Nothing.
00:39:06I felt there was something wrong, but nothing like this.
00:39:14Hasn't he told you anything?
00:39:16I didn't ask him.
00:39:18You mean to tell me you made up your mind just from reading this paper?
00:39:23I found that.
00:39:26All right.
00:39:27So he is a clothing salesman. So are a million other guys.
00:39:30He told you he wasn't in Philadelphia the other day, and I found out that he was.
00:39:33But he was in the hotel.
00:39:34Yes, but when? I carried match ballers around with me for months.
00:39:38He changed his name. Why should he do that?
00:39:40There could be a hundred reasons.
00:39:42I know you put each one of these little things together and they make it airtight.
00:39:46But you take each one separately.
00:39:47You find a simple answer.
00:39:48You think he's the man they're looking for, don't you?
00:39:59I'm going to find out.
00:40:01Millie, let me have your telephone number. I'll call you in half an hour and see if everything's all right.
00:40:06It's Parkview, 34608.
00:40:10The Windsor Apartments on 12th Street, Apartment C.
00:40:15Millie.
00:40:18That letter I wrote you.
00:40:19What letter?
00:40:21The one I mailed to Grantsville.
00:40:23The one I wrote before I knew you were married.
00:40:28I'll call you in half an hour.
00:40:29I'll call you in half an hour.
00:40:59Murderer!
00:41:07Murderer!
00:41:10I'll tell you what he isn't.
00:41:12He's a murderer!
00:41:23Murderer!
00:41:26Murderer!
00:41:26He's a murderer!
00:41:27He's a murderer!
00:41:27He's a murderer!
00:41:28He's a murderer!
00:41:29A murder!
00:41:36A murder!
00:41:38A murder!
00:41:43A murder!
00:41:59Your headache any better?
00:42:13I couldn't figure out what happened to you.
00:42:16I bought a paper.
00:42:19A Philadelphia paper.
00:42:25Haven't you anything to say?
00:42:30Haven't you anything to say?
00:42:35Just going away.
00:42:38On another business trip.
00:42:41No, for good.
00:42:49Hello.
00:42:51Yes.
00:42:52Yes, I'll do that.
00:42:55The call was for you.
00:43:00He said he'd call back.
00:43:25Home.
00:43:26Where is he?
00:43:27I don't know.
00:43:28I'm trying to keep you out of this, Mrs. Baxter.
00:43:30I'm not asking you to help us, but don't help him.
00:43:32There is something you can do.
00:43:34Thank you, Mrs. Baxter.
00:43:35Thank you, Mrs. Baxter.
00:43:37Thank you, Mrs. Baxter.
00:43:39Thank you, Mrs. Stใ‚ใ‹ะป่€Œir.
00:43:46Thank you, Mrs. Baxter.
00:43:52Thank you, Mrs. Baxter.
00:44:22Why did you come back?
00:44:34I never got out.
00:44:36You can't stay here.
00:44:37Yes, I know.
00:44:39I won't get you into any further trouble.
00:44:41I wasn't thinking of myself.
00:44:45You said that is how you meant it.
00:44:47I don't.
00:44:48Where are you going?
00:44:54What's the difference?
00:44:56I wouldn't ask if I didn't care.
00:44:59Now, they're still out there.
00:45:01You'd better go now.
00:45:03I'll meet you at 7th and Bleecker.
00:45:06Go ahead.
00:45:06They won't stop you.
00:45:18Good evening.
00:45:32He's the guy we want.
00:45:46You can always spot him.
00:45:47Just like this guy, Baxter.
00:45:56Millie.
00:45:57Oh, Paul.
00:45:58Will you follow me?
00:46:03No.
00:46:04You know, they're not so dumb.
00:46:06They figured that it'd be easier to spot us together.
00:46:09Do you want to go on alone?
00:46:12No.
00:46:15How did you know that they wouldn't follow me?
00:46:19When Blake asked for your photograph,
00:46:21I gave him the one on the mantelpiece.
00:46:23What time does the car leave for Dallas?
00:46:47Ain't no car leaving for Dallas tonight.
00:46:49Yes.
00:46:53Is there any car leaving tonight?
00:46:59For where?
00:47:00Anywhere.
00:47:02On the way to Dallas.
00:47:05Well, there's a car leaving for Louisville.
00:47:08Tonight?
00:47:10Should have been here 20 minutes ago.
00:47:12Is there room for two?
00:47:15Two?
00:47:16My husband and I.
00:47:18That'll be $10 a piece.
00:47:19$10 a piece.
00:47:19Don't I get any tickets?
00:47:29No, you know tickets.
00:47:30Just take a seat till the car gets here.
00:47:36That's good.
00:47:38Sit down.
00:47:40Let's go.
00:48:06How many for Louisville?
00:48:06How many for Louisville?
00:48:08Her, him, and them, too.
00:48:15Let's go.
00:48:36Let's go.
00:49:06Oh, boy.
00:49:36I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:50:06I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:50:36I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:51:06I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:51:36I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:52:06I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:52:38I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:52:40Who knows?
00:52:41Your luck can't hold out forever.
00:52:42Yeah, probably what it'll be next time.
00:52:44I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:52:46I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:52:48I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:52:50I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:52:52I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:52:56I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:52:58I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:53:02I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:53:04I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:53:09I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:53:10I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:53:11I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:53:13I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:53:20I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:53:22Hello.
00:53:27I...
00:53:29I... I'm looking for a room.
00:53:36What do you want?
00:53:38I'm looking for a room.
00:53:41You alone?
00:53:43Yes.
00:53:45Right this way.
00:53:58Well?
00:54:04How much is it?
00:54:06Any luggage?
00:54:07My bags are at the depot.
00:54:09Then you'll have to pay a week in advance. That's five dollars.
00:54:17No cooking.
00:54:28No.
00:54:29Well, we'll be safe here overnight, anyway.
00:54:59It's not a pretty story, is it?
00:55:21You better lie down.
00:55:24Get some rest.
00:55:26Mellie, there's something I've got to tell you.
00:55:33Tell me in the morning, darling.
00:55:38No, I've got to tell you now.
00:55:45It's funny how things work out sometimes, isn't it?
00:55:52How everything...
00:55:54Well, sometimes things completely change in a single night.
00:55:59Now, you go along for years batting your brains out for $50 a week.
00:56:06And that $50 seems like, well, just about the most important thing in the world to you.
00:56:12And then suddenly, you meet a guy that carries $10,000.
00:56:17I carry 10 times that much without losing a dime.
00:56:20I don't believe banks, you see?
00:56:22I try to watch it.
00:56:27$10,000, Mellie.
00:56:31$10,000.
00:56:34And there it was, lying on the floor, right in front of me.
00:56:37And I was worried about your coming to New York.
00:56:40I was worried about how I was going to take care of you and how we'd make out together.
00:56:46It didn't seem right that a man like that should have all that money.
00:56:50I may have wanted his money, but I didn't kill him.
00:57:07I didn't, Mellie.
00:57:08I didn't kill him.
00:57:10Why did you hide?
00:57:13Who would believe me?
00:57:18What are they doing to him?
00:57:47I don't know.
00:57:50Will you let me see him?
00:57:54I ain't got no say here.
00:57:56Aren't you a detective?
00:57:58No, I'm only a bartender.
00:58:02You're Jacob Hauser.
00:58:06I'm sorry, Mrs. Baxter.
00:58:08All I did was tell him the truth.
00:58:15I'm not blaming you.
00:58:17You've been married long?
00:58:21Five weeks tomorrow.
00:58:23Mrs. Baxter, you can go.
00:58:27Can't I see him?
00:58:28Not right now.
00:58:29When?
00:58:30Tomorrow, maybe.
00:58:31Excuse me?
00:58:32Oh, good evening.
00:58:33Good evening.
00:58:34Is Mr. Graham in?
00:58:35He's on the roof guard.
00:58:36Shall I connect you?
00:58:37No, no, I'll go up.
00:58:38Oh, Mrs. Baxter.
00:58:39Yes?
00:58:40A letter for you.
00:58:41Letter?
00:58:42Yes.
00:58:43Forwarded from Grantsville.
00:58:44Oh, French letter.
00:58:45French letter.
00:58:46I'm sorry.
00:58:47Come on.
00:58:48Oh, I'll go up.
00:58:49Oh, good evening.
00:58:50Good evening.
00:58:51Is Mr. Graham in?
00:58:52He's on the roof guard.
00:58:53Shall I connect you?
00:58:54No, no, I'll go up.
00:58:55Oh, Mrs. Baxter.
00:58:56Yes?
00:58:57A letter for you.
00:58:58Letter?
00:58:59Yes.
00:59:00Forwarded from Grantsville.
00:59:02French letter.
00:59:05Oh.
00:59:06French letter.
00:59:15Roof garden, please.
00:59:34Well, how'd things go?
00:59:36I couldn't see it.
00:59:38Too windy for you up here?
00:59:45Oh, your letter came.
00:59:49Let me in.
00:59:50Let me read it.
00:59:51No, you don't want to know.
00:59:52No, please.
01:00:15Hotel Philadelphia.
01:00:45That present.
01:00:47It was a pair of silk stockings.
01:00:51You never sent them.
01:00:56You were in the Hotel Philadelphia that night.
01:00:59The night Prescott was...
01:01:02Fred.
01:01:04You.
01:01:09No, I understand.
01:01:11You weren't trying to find Paul for me, but for the police.
01:01:15That's why you took me to Lieutenant Blake instead of the missing persons bureau.
01:01:19Oh, I know.
01:01:20You'd stop me from telling Blake I found Paul.
01:01:22You wanted this letter.
01:01:23You had to get a hold of it before I found out what happened in the hotel.
01:01:29Don't you see?
01:01:30He did it, not Paul.
01:01:32I'd have to have more than your word for it, Mr. Buxton.
01:01:34But... but the stocking, that letter.
01:01:36There's no mention here of any stockings.
01:01:37It just says, uh, that present, I promised you.
01:01:40It doesn't mean a thing.
01:01:42Oh, there must be some way I can prove it.
01:01:43Something.
01:01:44We can do it.
01:01:45We haven't found the money yet.
01:01:47Don't be too hopeful.
01:01:50Have a car ready.
01:01:53There's no use in your waiting.
01:01:54You go on home.
01:01:55If there's anything, I'll call you.
01:02:07Well, come in, Lieutenant. I've been expecting.
01:02:32We're here.
01:02:38Mr. Graham, did you promise Mrs. Baxter a pair of silk stockings?
01:02:42Yes, I did.
01:02:44But I, uh, I couldn't get them.
01:02:46What about your letter?
01:02:48Well, I got her something else instead.
01:02:50It was sort of supposed to be a surprise.
01:02:53May I see it?
01:02:54Sure.
01:02:55You mind if we search the room?
01:03:03Go ahead.
01:03:05If you find $10,000, I'll split everything.
01:03:08Come in, boys.
01:03:09Shall we wait in the hall?
01:03:18I don't like this any more than you, Mr. Graham, but we have to follow up every lead.
01:03:20Oh, I understand.
01:03:21You know, you'd be surprised how much it takes to convict a murderer.
01:03:25You have a jury of twelve ordinary people.
01:03:28They've never even seen a murderer.
01:03:30They expect some wild-eyed maniac with blood in his hands.
01:03:34And when you show them someone who looks the same as they, they just don't believe you.
01:03:37That's why we have to clear up all the loose ends.
01:03:42So it's airtight.
01:03:45Am I keeping you from something?
01:03:46Well, I'd like to catch the 1115. I'm due in Atlanta on Thursday.
01:03:49You'll make it.
01:03:51You take that Albert Foster. I showed you his picture.
01:03:54Why did we have a time convicting him?
01:03:56And with four bodies to show, too.
01:03:58There was one old lady on the jury who tied up the verdict for six days just because she couldn't believe a man with such a sweet smile was a killer.
01:04:04And there was Professor, uh, Professor Standley.
01:04:09You remember him?
01:04:10Sure.
01:04:13Sure?
01:04:15Sure what?
01:04:18You were telling me about Albert Foster.
01:04:20When I finished about Albert Foster, I was talking about Professor Standley.
01:04:24Tell me about him. I'd like to hear.
01:04:25You're not interested.
01:04:27Sure I am. Tell me.
01:04:29Forget it.
01:04:41Say, do you remember that woman who poisoned Sixth Husband for their insurance?
01:04:46What was her name? Goldsmith. Emma Goldsmith.
01:04:49And the man in the case, the chauffeur, wasn't it? They collected over $100,000.
01:04:54They would have gotten away with it, too, if it hadn't been for Emma Goldsmith.
01:04:58Borden? Emma Borden?
01:04:59No, no. You're thinking about somebody else. This was Goldsmith. I remember distinctly I know a buyer in Miami named Goldsmith.
01:05:05Robert Goldsmith. I thought about him as soon as I read about the case.
01:05:09He took me out to his house when I was talking. He's got a beautiful house on the hill, overlooking the ocean.
01:05:12There are no hills in Miami.
01:05:14No, that's right. He didn't live in Miami. He lived just outside.
01:05:16You ought to see that house. That's the most beautiful thing you've ever seen.
01:05:19That thing ruined it. It got closer.
01:05:21Hold it.
01:05:22You have another address to Fred Graham, Atlanta, Georgia? Fred Graham? Fred Graham.
01:05:33Amber Crombie.
01:05:35Johnson.
01:05:37Kerch.
01:05:52Don't you?
01:05:53Don't you?
01:05:57Excuse me, please. Pardon me. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.
01:06:05Come in.
01:06:07Excuse me, folks. The train's crowded. I wonder if a young lady could sit here for a spell.
01:06:14Bring her in.
01:06:16Thank you, sir. This way, please.
01:06:22I was just married, too.
01:06:28Pardon me.
01:06:42Tell us all about it, my dear.
01:06:44Well, I was working in a restaurant, and he came in one day.
01:06:47And so he said he liked me, and that's the way it started.
01:06:52He said...
01:06:53Ha!
01:06:54Ha ha ha ha ha!
01:06:55Ha ha ha!
01:07:01Ha ha ha ha!
01:07:03Ha ha ha!
01:07:06Ha ha ha ha!
01:07:07Ha ha ha!
01:07:12ะ ha ha ha ha!
01:07:14Ha ha ha ha!
01:07:17It's been a long time here.
