Protected Policeman.

During the course Of the investigation
Tucker was asked If he did not place
his hand over HOwes mouth, but he
declared that he did not. Later he
was asked II he did not put his arm
around Howe's shoulder and hold him.
He denied holding Howe, but said that
he might have put his arm on his
shoulder when he thought the police
man was In danger Of being assaulted
by the mob. He said he was still In
the hospital when Chief Of Police UNI
sted arrived and took Howe aside TO
question him. The chief took Howe
away from the building and asked him
to remain over night with the nurses,
as they were badly frightened.
Much excitement was caused when

left the police headquarters. where
the investigation is being held, without
guard. Mr. Gawthrop said that he had
questioned the chief as to what he

MORE ARRESTS
Five Held as Witnesses of
Gainesville LynChing.
STATE POLICE IN PROBE
District Attorney Declares the Pris-
oners Were Close to Colored
Man When He Wss Hurled
Into the Fire.

Coatesville, Pa, Aug. 19.-Five men
were held by District Attorney Robert
Gawthrop as witnesses in connection
with the lynching of Zach Walker
The Ave men are:
Richard Tucker. assistant manager
OF an insurance company and sub
stitute policeman.
William A. Gilbert, a Philadelphia
& Reading railway engineer.
Chester Bostwick, nineteen years OF
age. employed at Worth Brothers
steel plant
Dale Hadley, driver of an ice cream
wagon.
Cap" L. c. Perry, parachute
jumper. who gave exhibitions during
the recent harvest home celebration.
Although all Of these men have been
held under $1,000 bail as witnesses
against the men arrested in connection
with the lynching, District Attorney
Gawthrop said that some OF them
might be charged later with having
been implicated in instigating the
crime. He said that all five OF the
witnesses were within a few feet oil
the colored man when he was thrown
upon the fire and burned alive.
Hadley, according to the district at
torney. was so near the fire that he
said he might have been burned by the
flames. Hadley said he went right up
to the fire and cut OF a piece OF the
rope as a souvenir. This rope was IN
evidence.
Perry was near the mob throughout
the trip from the hospital, and the Oh
hcials say Bostick was in the hallway
when the colored man was taken from
the bed and placed on the foot piece
Of the iron bedstead.
Tucker, who is a member OF tue
Brandywine Fire company, and a
brother-in-law Of Stanley Howe, the
policeman who was on guard over the
colored man when he was taken from
the hospital, testified that he was In
the hospital before the prisoner was
taken out, but that he went there to
see that Howe was not foully dealt
with.
