Negro Suspect Arrested.

LOS ANGELES, Calf, Sept. Pr
Robert Askey, negro. was taken In
to custody by the police tonight in
connection with the murder of Mrs.
Rebecca Gay. The negro who is ap-
rarently mentally unbalaneeS, was ar
rested on account of his peculiar
actions. Askey is said to have made
a number of contradictory statements
to the police but talks SO incoherent-
ly that they are unable to decide
whether he has knowledge of the
crime or not, He Is being held for
investigation.
Late tonight Mrs. Curry, a resident
of the fashionable district Of Los An
geles, positively identified Askey as
the negro who was in Mrs. Gray's
office when she called for treatment.
She said that Askey was the only
person remaining with Mrs. Gray when
she left her office at o'clock Friday
afternoon. Mrs. Iona Forester, anoth-
er of Mrs. Gray's patients, also iden-
titled Askey as being the negro last
seen with Mrs. Gray. The negro was
picked up while trying to dash out
his brains against brick wall. He
told the police that he had been a
chauffeur in San Diego for John H.
Gay, the divorced husband of the
murdered woman. but was recently
discharged. When arrested Askey's
coat and pants were spotted with what
appeared to be dry blood.

phoned?" Mrs. Gay asked As the door
closed.
1t is known Mrs. Gay lived in daily
fear of persons she believed to be
white slavers who had operated under
| the cloak of Christian Science, pos.
/ ing as practitioners. She always slept
with revolver beneath her pillow,
| the result of threats received from
the gang which she was largely In
strumental in breaking up. Mean.
while finger print experts are pouring
over their files seeking to identify
the bloody marks found about the
death chamber. From the location of
Mrs. Gays wounds and the position
of the chairs which she and her muir.
derer evidently sat, the police and
other Christian Science practitioners
are firm in the belief that the muir
derer struck the fatal blow when he
was receiving treatment and Mrs.
Gay sat facing him. her head bent in
prayer Across the victims breast
and stained by blood was found a.
text card" bearing the Psalm quota
ton. The Lord is my Shepherd; l

TO tell whether 1t fell when the MUIR
derer swept from the table pile OF
papers and magazines to cover the
body or he gave way to impulse and
placed 1t there. The little private
Office where the crime occurred was
blood spattered from wall to wall |
even the pictures of Mary Baker Eddy |
and certain biblical pictures on the
wall being spattered Because the
woman's eyes. in spite of the awful
beating she received, remained closed
detectives who are working upon the
case believe Mrs. Gay must have had /
her eyes closed In prayer for the
patient when the first blow was
struck. All the wounds were on the
left side Of the head and face. The
fifth floor Of the building where the
murder was committed is given over
almost entirely to Christian Science /
practitioners.
