Police Grill Steve HOrvath Two
Hours But Fail to Get Details
in Shooting of John HOrvath
Monday Morning.
DETECTIVES SAY MEN
WERE BREAKING SEALS
EIkhart Officers Contend That
SaWed-Off Shot Gun Was
Use by Gang-AIIOWed to 90
After Telling Story.

Members of the local police depart
ment spent a fruitless two hours
Monday morning in quizzing Steve
Horvath. brother of John Horvath. of
Kentucky st. who was shot and killed
at Winkler's crossing on the New York
Central railroad shortly after mid
night Monday by two railroad detec-
tives from Elkhart. Ind.
Il was thought that Steve HOrvath
might be able to tell the authorities
who the other members of the gang
were, since he was alleged TO have
been one of the four who broke sew
eral car seals in tie railroad yards.
According 10 the police, however, little
was learned. He is being held at the
city iail to be examined further Mon
day night and Tuesday morning.
Detectives Released.
The two detectives Fred Gardiner
and Charles \. Ray who were arrest
ed and held pending investigation by
the local police. were released Monday
morning by order of Coroner L. j.
Swantz. who held that their act of
shooting HOrVath was justified, ac-
cording to the little evidence that has
been turned up.
Ray and Gardiner dropped off
freight train in the local yards when
they discovered the four men wander
y
concealment they claimed TO have seen
them break several car seals. In the
effort to arrest them, the car breakers
are alleged to have fired upon their
pursuers with a saWedoff shotgun
When the detectives returned the fire,
Horvath was hit on the left side. The
bullet took an upward course and
lodged under the skin in his right
breast.
Mrs. Susie Horvath. wife of the
slain man, was questioned closely
Monday morning by Sergt. of Detec-
tives Barnhart. other than TO say
that her husband had left home at
o'clock, she was unable to aid the
authorities in their search for the
other members of the gang.
Left Home Sunday.
Steve Horvath lives at his brothers s
home, but according TO Mrs Horvath
the two left at different hours Sunday
evening.
Coroner T. ]. Swantz will hold the
inquest in the case at 4 o'clock Mon
day evening. At that time Mrs. Hor-
vath and Steve Horvath will be call
ed upon to tell what they know of the
occurrence.
A theory of possible truth which
has been taken up by the police de
partment is that the four men might
have been the same who recently
shot a brakeman in the knee in the
local yards when they were ordered
off the train by the crew. However,
other members of the department dis
credit this theory.
Arrangements for the funeral have
not been completed as yet but it is
probable that the burial will be in the
Hungarian cemetery on w. Division st.
Horvath was 3 years old and leaves
a wife. Susanna and four small chill
dren. He was born in Hungary.

WASHINGTON, July 12-The at
tention Of officials and diplomats in
Washington today is centered on the
summer white house where PreSt
Wilson begins consideration of his re-
PLY TO the second unsatisfactory Ger
man answer TO the protest of this
government to the sinking Of the Lu-
sitania
Indications today are that the third
note of this government will be dis
patched probably within a week and
il viii be brief, pOintedly reiterating
the former views of this government
and rejecting the counter-proposals
OF Germany.
Sec'y Lansing is scheduled TO go to
Cornish by the middle Of the week.
Before his departure he is likely to
have a lengthy conference with Count
Won Bernstorff. the German ambas-
sadOr, who is anxious TO be of aSsis-
tance if possible in strengthening out
the present badly tangled situation.
Wilson Cannot AcCedc.
IT is accepted by most as a matter
of course here tlat Pres't Wilson can

German reply but as to the principles

many and the United States apparent

weeks ago. This causes officials to
become apprehensive lest the patience
OF the American people become ex-
hausted and the situation assume the
critical nature It possessed immedi-
ately following the destruction OF the
Lusitania
The impression here is that the
presidents third communication re-
garding the protection Of American
travellers at sea Will be a document re-
markable for its brevity and direct

Crnment will enter into a lengthy ar
gument through diplomatic channels,
