William HOller, who lives just across
the Wayne county line in Cnlon cOun-
ty. twice confined in the Eastern In
diana Hospital for the Insane, is the
man suspected OF having placed blue
vitriol in the spring which furnishes
Abingdon with its water supply
Up to noon today HOller had not
been taken into custody because OF
legal complications resulting from the
fact that the Wayne county author
tiles wanted to arrest HIM without
swearing out a warrant for his ar
rest. 1t was their desire to take hlm
into custody as a paroled inmate of
state insane hospital, who. for the safe
ty Of the community in which he lived,
should no longer be permitted to re-
