GARY, Ind. Aug. 26.-The frst sus-
pect in the Rev. Edmund H. A. Kayscr
snurder mystery was released this af-
ternoon by the police after telling q
Straightforward story.
According to the police, George
Schneider. a member Of the Gary Saxon
yerien, who was arrested early this
morning, told relatives he had been in
= fight Tuesday night. There were
Bruises and scratches on Schneider's
face when he was taken to police head

Of the minister and German propaganda
ist, were uncovered today. The police
said kaysers enemies were not con-
fined to the hundreds Of Slavs and Ii
thuanians Of Gary. but were among his
own congregation.
Sold Lots To Practitioners.
He had shown Chief Heintz letters he
received from members of his German
colony whom he had brought here from
the Fatherland and to whom he had

the alleged woman in the case"
Federal inspectors. It became known
today, have for some time been investi-
eating the source OF letters threaten
ing Kayser bodily harm II he continued
visiting q Mrs. Mary Krause. one OF
his parishioners. The woman was ques-
toned at headquarters by Chief Heintz
and Federal Investigators. The latter
had been called into the case by the
postmaster.
More details also Of Kayser's recent
business activities were unearthed to-
day. Kayser founded his Independent
Lutheran Church eight years ago. 1t
was not subject to rule of the Central
Lutheran bodies.
Bought Up Many Acres.
The minister bought up many acres
of land surrounding his church. divided
them into lots, and then sold them to
Germans whom he persuaded to come
here from tho old country. and to DER
mans whom he interested on trips to
New Jersey. Pennsylvania, Maryland,
New York and Missouri.
Kayser received $50 monthly as pastor
Of his church. He lived handsomely,
however. presumably. the police say.
on the profits Of his lot sales. He had
personal friend. that he had frequently
been threatened for charging one set
tier more than another for a lot.
1t has been variously estimated that
he profited to the extent Of $4,000 on
his land sales.
