Detroit, Mich. Oct. 12.-Cereni Ear.

Casimir Wrobleska, his room mate,
was with him at the time. Wroblcska

that given by Wrobleska and On the
strength of his statement John
Szecselocrsky and John Martin were
locked up on suspicion. They Tailed
with the description given by Wrobles-
ka, who was also detained at tie Wy
ondotte Jail pending investigation Of
the murder.
There were no witnesses to the mur-
der except Wrobleska and the alleged
hold-up men. People who live in the
neighborhood heard four shots fired
but no one ventured out until Wrob-
leska called for help at nearby sa-
loon.
Sheriff Dickson looks upon Wrob-
leska's story with suspicion and thinks
the young man knows more about the
murder than he cares to tell.
Zaremba was about 40 years Of age.
He came to this country from Rus.
.sia about eight months ago. His wifi,
and children are still there They
live in the city of Jablonka.
There was wild excitement in Ford
