the Action Packed Expenser cout America's Fabulous Freelance insurance Investigators.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Truly Johnny Dollar.
Speaker 4 (00:57):
From Special Investigator Johnny Dollar location in New Orleans to
the Home Office Universal Adjustment Bureau, Hertford, Connecticut. Assignment the
Phantom Chase matter expense account continued Item twelve A dollar
twenty cav Fair from my hotel to police headquarters were
(01:17):
Detective Lieutenant Lefevre was waiting for me.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
All right, don't know what's it all about?
Speaker 4 (01:22):
Well, Tenant, it's mainly about Tom Chase alias Tom James
Chase James who's he former junior partner in the investment
firm of Everson and Chase in New York City. Chase
and Vessel one hundred and twenty thousand dollars from the firm.
It's not very easy to do, I know, but he
was real smart about it. George Jeffson, the senior partner,
explained how Chase had done it. You see, he specialized
(01:45):
in long term investments. People are buying hold on h Yeah,
that's right. Chase juggled the accounts and over what must
have been a period of many months, he signed off
a total of one hundred and twenty thousand Hawtaverson found
out about oh, one of their clients suddenly decided to
sell out.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Count wasn't as fat as it should have been, now,
that's right.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
Everson immediately ordered an audits. The total shortage was discovered
in the DA's office moved in.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Did Chase make any kind of statement, No, no, none
at all.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
He just clammed up.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
Everson tried to get him to explain, and so to
Chase his wife, Lola, but he wouldn't say anything. Everson
raised bail for him, and Chase promptly jumped bail and disappeared.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
You know, I've heard stars like this before. Yeah, sure,
open and shut himbezzlement. Anybody find the moodium.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
Well, we're just guessing at that could be any one
of the standard ones.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
I guess gambling. Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
As far as we can determine, Chase didn't do any gambling.
Of course, you never really know what about a woman,
and that's probably closer to it. Although I'm like George Everson,
if it was a woman, I don't get it.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
You should see Chase his.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Wife low oh black banning like that still woods a
full of men who run out on good wife.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
Well, there was something wrong in the happy home, all right,
but I guess it was all on Chase's part. Lula
told me he'd been moody, intense for some time before
the inmbestment became known.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
He was away from home a lot at night, told
her he'd been working late. That too, sounds for me.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
She asked George Everson about it, and George told her
wasn't so. And there was the matter of the vacation. Vacation, Yeah,
the last moment Tom Chase told lollly he couldn't get away,
but insisted she go anyway, So she went to Marfas
Venue alone.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Well, certainly he has all the emoks. Another one I know.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
I asked George Effson if he knew of any other woman.
He said, No, I haven't had the heart to ask
a little Chase that yet. Part I got a hunch
that's what she's afraid it is, too.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Well, it's all very interesting, Donald, But what's he got
to do with Freddy Quintana's murder here in Knowlans.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
Yeah, here's a New York newspaper well last week.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Take a look at it, article on New Orleans jazz.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
Yeah, that's a picture of Asis Castle down on the quarter.
George Jefferson spotted this picture. The fellow in the background
sitting at the bar looked at him like Tom Chase.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
And Chase was crazy about jazz, and.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
That's why you've come down here to Norleans.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Freddy Quintenna contacted me night before last and told me
Tom Chase was in New Orleans under the name of
Tom James.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
You have any proof to show you?
Speaker 2 (04:23):
A letter Chase had started to Lola and then threw away.
Quintana stole it from Chase's room. The handwriting genuine mm hmm.
I checked it against the sample of Chases writing that
I'd brought with me.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Yeah, it's his all right.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
Well, Quintana told me to meet him in his room
at midnight, he'd have Chase there. Apparently he was pretending
to negotiate with Chase for passage out of the country.
Oh so all and I went to Quintana's room at midnight,
but he didn't show and I took it back to
a hotel that I met you, and you showed me
Freddy Quintana's body in the alley. It sure looks like
(04:57):
Tom Chase didn't want to get found.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
So now if we get Tom Chase, we got Freddy
Quintanna's kill. That's about the size of Lieutenant I don't
know what do you mean? Dollar quarter has been my
beat for a long time now, So Freddy Quintanna was
a real bad boy's When a bad boy gets himself killed,
isn't always easy to tag the man who did it,
(05:22):
Meaning there are a lot of them whould like to
have done it. Huh Freddy's case, a long line of him.
I don't tell it. Well, we give it a whor
Tom Chase had as Tom James, I get out bulleting
on him. He's the one, though we probably skipped time by.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Now, what's your.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Next movie, Jenny? One that I don't look forward to,
believe me, O breaking the news.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
To lower Chase.
Speaker 5 (05:51):
Like I just won't believe it, Johnny. I know it
was hard enough to think that Tom was in Bezler.
He is killer, Johnny.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
He couldn't be a nice guy. I can get twisted up.
Then when he's on the run, he sometimes acts like
an animal. He'll destroy anything or anyone who's between him
and his freedom.
Speaker 5 (06:11):
What kind of freedom can a man have? Who's I
guess you were right, Johnny?
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (06:18):
What about you said I shouldn't have come down here
from New York, that there was nothing I could do
except get hurt more.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Oh, I can understand your feeling you had to come.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
But well, Johnny, I wish you were working for me
right now. This investigation, I mean, I just call it off, afraid.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
It isn't that simple. Your husband's still a fugitive. He's
got to be found. That one hundred and twenty thousand
dollars or what's left of it has to be recovered.
And if he is responsible for Quintana's murder, I.
Speaker 5 (06:49):
Know it was just a wish. Excuse me? Hello? Oh
yes Roman, Johnny?
Speaker 4 (07:02):
Oh, thanks, Johnny Dollar, I find you there anything new,
Lieutenant Yes.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Tom James Alis he gives Tom Chase paid off.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Oh, just located his room where the rooming house in
the quarter. A couple of dollars from where I'll meet
you there in ten minutes.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Expencer, Count Adham thirteen three dollars cab fare from Lalla's
Hotel to the rooming House in the Quarter. Two dollars
for the fair, a dollar extra for speed the driver
earned it. Eight minutes later, I met Lieutenant Lefevre at
the rooming house, a dilapidated two story building. He took
me to a room at the end of the hall
in the first floor. There's it, Jenny, no sign of chasing.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Now. I'm keeping a stake out on the room, Jess
in case, but I doubt if it's the bay it's closed.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Ago looks like he left in a hurry. Yeah, thick.
Look over here.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
On some sharp pieces of paper with fishermount of the
waste basket.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Had some mistake.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Amateurs usually make burning stuff in the waste basket.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
No draft, that's right.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Some of it's not completely burnt se if any it
makes sense to you, Well.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
This one looks like part of a letter. That's one.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Yeah, yeah, this one pegs Chase all right, looks like
a little piece of an envelope.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
Could be he brought part of the money down here
or there? You see you can still read part of
the letter had in the upper corner. Everson and the
full name is Everson and Chase. That's the name of
the farm. Chase was the junior partner.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Well, that makes it pretty clear that Tom James and
Tom Chase are one the same.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Did he rent the Rome under the name of Tom James?
That's right. I haven't got any of the details yet.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
There's no manager here, vacancy is a handle out rental
agent on the street. Here's another child fragment.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
I can't figure ye.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Take look it's writing here.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
And just a numbers looks like a twelve and twenty
three mean anything to you? Twelve twenty three.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
A dress? Maybe?
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Possibly doesn't that much help?
Speaker 1 (09:13):
What a dress? Well?
Speaker 4 (09:15):
If I g any bright ideas, I'll call you. I'm
going to pay a visit to that rental agent. Yes,
what can I do for you?
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Are you the Asian for that running house down the street?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
And that's right, Sair Collars, there's a name Morothri callus
you'd like a room?
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Maybe?
Speaker 2 (09:40):
No?
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Thanks? I want some information. What about Well, you wanted a.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Room sometime ago to a man named Tom James, I believe.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Well, let me see.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
I'll have to look it up to keep all the
rentals in this year book and read off.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
Yeah, here it is. Oh yeah, what do you mean?
Oh yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Was there something special about that rattle?
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Indeed there was my friend a little over a week
ago at love Yeah, that was figure and the months
paid in advance.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Is that what was so special about it? Oh no, no,
that's happened before. It was who rented it was so special? Well,
I thought, Tom James.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
It was rented for mister James by a friend of
the Oh I sure wish I.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Had a friend like that. Oh man, what a woman
the motive? But Tom chases somemvestments.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
It was a woman after all, probably stayed under cover
while she rented the room for him. I thought of
his wife, Lola. I didn't want to see you get
hurt anymore. Expencer count had him fourteen care fed all
all this hotel?
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Is this something new?
Speaker 5 (10:51):
Johnny? You left in such a hurry.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Well, do yourself of me a favor.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
What is it?
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Go back to New York? Now?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Why?
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Well, I just think it'd be better all around. That's all.
Speaker 5 (11:03):
Something's happened. You found out something, Johnny. Please don't hold anything.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Back for me. It is I have a right to know.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Yeah, I guess you do. Okay, I'm sorry to tell
you this, but it looks like Tom isn't traveling alone.
Speaker 5 (11:29):
Oh. I guess I always knew that was it. It
had to be.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 5 (11:40):
You're right, Johnny. The only thing for me to do
now is go back to New York and forget. Try
to forget. Thanks for everything, Johnny.
Speaker 4 (11:53):
I did him fifteen three dollars, even drinks for me,
but they didn't take the bad time sed out of
my mouth.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
He lowlane heading drank.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
To New York along and Chase hitting who knew where
with one hundred and twenty grand and not alone.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
I thought of that scrap of charred paper.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
With the numbers on it, the one we'd found in
his room, twelve twenty three.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
They can mean anything or nothing.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
Finally I gave up trying to make sense out of
it and picked up the evening paper news section, not
much of interest, sports comics, the weather, harbornews, that harbornews
ship arrivals, and departures twelve twenty three. Could that be
the time of departure of a ship and the peer
number from peer twenty three to twelve.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Maybe?
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Sure, it sounded like a long shut, but I had
a strong hunch the trail might not be as cold
as I'd thought.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
Now here's our star to tell you about the next
intriguing episode of this story.

Speaker 3 (10:19):
It was rented for mister James by a friend of
the Oh I sure wish I.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Had a friend like that. Oh man, what a woman
the motive? But Tom chases somemvestments.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
It was a woman after all, probably stayed under cover

To New York along and Chase hitting who knew where
with one hundred and twenty grand and not alone.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
I thought of that scrap of charred paper.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
With the numbers on it, the one we'd found in
his room, twelve twenty three.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
They can mean anything or nothing.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
Finally I gave up trying to make sense out of
it and picked up the evening paper news section, not
much of interest, sports comics, the weather, harbornews, that harbornews
ship arrivals, and departures twelve twenty three. Could that be
the time of departure of a ship and the peer
number from peer twenty three to twelve.
