Done Without Detectives

The confession Of Francis Ketcham
of Bennington, covering the shooting
of William Costello, was secured by
Bennington officials without the as
sistance of professional sleuths. In
connection with the extraordinary
story, the Banner says:
Deputy Sheriff Nash and Officer
Hurley ever since the commission of
the crime had urged States Attorney
Archibald not to turn the inyestiga.
ton over TO men from a detective
agency. These two officers insisted
that the slayer OF Costello would
eventually be captured without out
side assistance and their conviction
has been realized. Both men have pre-
yiously demonstrated that they posses
that peculiar instinct necessary in a
successful trailer OF criminals and to
them is due the larger amount Of cred
1t in fixing the crime upon Ketcham.
In discussing the question of employ
ing detectives at great expense to the
state, The Herald made the statement
that in many cases local officers were
capable of detecting and apprehend-
ing criminals as we'll as the costly OPP
eratives of city agencies, and at a
much less cost.
This has not only been proven true
| in the Ketcham case, but in perhaps a
dozen other cases in the past two
years. In fact. it is probably true
! that in no major case has the state
suffered from the strictest economy in
| the employment of detectives which
has been insisted on by Attorney Gen
= eral II. G. Barber.
| In one or two counties, where sher-
| ifs have fallen into an easy-going rut,
| there have been some escapes which
| were not at all creditable to the
states officers, but in general local
deputies have done exceptionally good
work and have made very little noise
about it.
