ments regarding fight he had with
DuVall at the scene where he was
found but in every case he has later
contradicted these statements.
He talks in a rambling manner and
may be sent to the Washington Asy-
lum Hospital for observation. Police
are convinced that he had a part in
the killing.
He told the detectives of hitting
DuVall on the head with a stick
and of being frightened away by
the approach of a negro. Later he
told them that he had heard a shot
when he was some distf.nce from
the place where he had struck
DuVali.
Though the police are convinced
that Betz is the guilty party. they
also have under arrest Robert L. Haw-
kins. colored. IS years old. anc
Charles Ross. 80 years old. who are
ais" cT"nloyes Of the Trinity Col.

While the police were at a los,
to explain the motive for the kill,
ing the fact that young DuVall hac
with him nearly $50 has given i'm

was the motive.
