DEEP MOTIVE IN ADAlR CASE

Suspicion that Minister Deliberately
Made False statements Under
Theory he wOuId he

CARTHAGE. Ill, Jan. 12-when police
and other officers attracted to this place
by the suicide OF Rev. John Havilsnd Car
michael. confessed slayer OF Gideon Brown
ing at Rattle Run. Mich. have fully salts
fled themselves as to the circumstances
attending the last act in the tragedy, II Is
expected that inquiry will turn to a posi-
bic motive for the initial crime.
It Is a curious fact that dispatches from
~Iaichigan reveal an unwillingness on the
part Of officials and others TO accept the
theory Of Carmichaers insanity as evolved
from his strange confession. one Of the
first to voice this skepticism was Prosecu-
tor Brown OF Adair, Mich, who rejected
the idea that Browning had used hypnotic
influence. II shall alweys believe" said
Mr.. Brown, that there was a deep motive
behind the crime
Similarly Under Sheriff Petit Of Port
Huron asserts his belief that Carmichaers
last letter was not intended for a death
bed confession, but wa9 written with the
idea that he would he brought back to
stand trial. Internal evidence, also, It IL
said. points TO the suspicion that the
preached deliberately made false state
mcnts. As an example, II IL indicated that
he must have known, while writing Of a
wedding ceremony for Browning. that the
latter had q wife. a fact well known In
the community. A failure to verify other
points in the confession also deepens the
prevailing suspicion.
Sheriff wegensel who started for
Carthage as soon as the fact of the sui
eide became known. and IL today taking
the lead in the investigation, was con-
WINGED that there was a woman in the case
and expressed regret that Carmichael could
not have been taken home alive.
In the face of these doubts, however, the
general tendency seems to be to accept the
theory OF meptsl irresponslbility until tan
gible Development tend to overthrow IL.
