SENSATIONAL DEVELOPMENTS
IN WIRE TAPPING CASE
The arrest last night of A. A. Nordskog, a private detective, on a charge of tapping
a telephone wire leading to the Burns National Detective office, in the Hinckley block,
promises to develop into a sensational case involving certain higher-ups. The evidence
against Nordskog and involving others was gathered by the Burns agency and the warrant
for the arrest was issued by Prosecutor Murphy, who announced today that he would push
the prosecution of all involved to the limit.
Nordskog;, it appears, was employed by the Burns agency during the Hanford investi
gation but was discharged ju>t before the congressional investigation of Hartford wan be
gun. It is alleged that soon after his discharge he was employed by person* interested
in saving Ifanford, and sensational charges of attempts to tamper with witnesses in the
Ifanford case are made in this connection.
PICTURES SHOW WIRE TAPPING
PROSECUTOR MURPHY DOESN'T
PROMISE DETECTIVE IMMUNITY
According to Prosecuting Attor
ney Murphy, Detective Nordskog.
while not broaching the subject In
definite terms, put a number of
suggestive questions to him relut
ing to the prosecuting attorney's
policy with regard to promising Im
munity when he made his state
ment about the wire tapping Satur
day.
"I told him that the prosecuting
attorney's office was not in the
habit of promising Immunity. 1
told him that the truth ought to be
told whether It Involved no one
else or Involved a dor.cn of the
moat prominent people in Seattle.
Nordskog came up to iti> office
with Deputy Prosecutor White,
whom 1 sent after him. We out
lined the cfcae against lilui Nords
kog tried to remain unmoved for
while.
"He told me that he whs not con
scious of any law breaking., when
I charged him with not only tap
ping Ihe wires but using the Infor
mation to aid In the obstruction of
Justice by selling valuable items
he thus learned so that certain
people got away from th« authori
ties In important cases. Nordskog
paled perceptibly when I turned to
him. saying:
" 'I know that you have In your
pocket at this very minute a little
