Serious doubts regarding the guilt
of Mr.. and Mrs. Lo Sey Of Ajo, held
for Investigation in connection with
the mysterious death Thursday night
of A. J. w. Born, partner in the Ari-
zona Packing Products company, who
was found drowned in the old city
pumping plants well before the
warmth Of life had left it. Subse-
quent investigation showed that he
had been struck a powerful blow
across the face. His nose was broken
and other injuries which the authori-
ties were unable to explain inflicted.
LO Sey's Story.
Following the arrest Of the pair, Lo
Sey asserted that his wife had been
employed as a cook in one of the state
highway construction camps near Ajo,
and that he had been driving a cement
wagon for the same outfit. Later, he
accounted for the presence of himself
and wife in the vicinity of the tragedy
by saying they together with man
-4..l. eG B,ns, lad feft the conStruc-
lion crew for a hunting trip in the
{hite Mountains. At Tucson, his
wife, who is morphine addict, found
herself short of the drug, and, leav-
ing Burns in charge of their para
ohernalla, they headed for Nogales,
hoping to be able to cross the line and
procure fresh supply, according to a
story told the authorities. Whether
o rnot they were able to smuggle the
morphine across the line into the
United States and were on their way
back when discovered at the scene of
the Born death has not been deter
mined.
Statements Verified.
Statements made by the man and
woman have been Investigated, it is
said, and verified in the most minute
detail. 1t also is stated that they will
be freed within a few hours unless in
eliminating evidence is produced.
Shortly after the arrest of the Lo
Sey spair, the man Burns came from
Tucson, bringing their suitcases and
other belongings left, as they had
said. These effects are now in the
hands of the sheriff's office.
