CHICAGO, Aug. 7-Arthur c. Burch, taken in custody at Las Vegas, Nev. last night in connection with the slaying of John B. Kennedy is tie son of w. A. Burch of Evanston. and was sued for divorce last November by his wife, who is a daughter of Bishop W. A. Qualye of St. Louis.
 Attorneys in the case said the suit had not been concluded. Burch, who is 2S years old. was a track athlete at Northwestern university at the time Mrs. Obenchain and her hus- band attended school there. Friends in Evanston said they understood he recently went to the Pacific coast on a vacation, but asserted their belief that he was in no way connected with the death of Kennedy.
 Rev. William A. Burch. father of Arthur c. Burch wept when advised that his son had been taken into GUS tody.
 Of course my son could have had nothing to do with that terrible tragedy" he said. Tt is true he did go to Los Angeles about two weeks ago and he was a college friend of Mir. and Mrs. Obenchain, but that would not have anything to do with ita
 Dr. Burch, who was for years if nancial agent of Northwestern uni- versity, said he had expected his sons return at this time, and that his departure from Los Angeles should not arouse any suspicion of con- nection with crime of which he was wholly incapable.

KELLER 1T TACKS ADMINISTRATION
 TkX AND TARIFF REVISION POLICY
[RepubIIcan A. P. Leased Wire]

-
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 7--An attack on the administration generally and on the house ways and means com mittee particularly for it's handling of the tariff and tax questions is made in a statement issued today by Representative Keller, independent Republican of St. Paul. Minn., author of four tax revision bills, which have been endorsed by organizations oi farmers and others.
 Mir. Keller charges that the ma chinery of government has been com mandeered by little clique, ignorant of the A. B. C's of economies, whose blind obedience to Wall street is re- sponsible for the stupid, selfish short sighted policy that is retard- 1 ing our prosperity and creating pro- found distrust and discomfort among the people"
 Declaring that most members q the house want 10 carry out tht peoples wishes with. regard to tax ation and other economic questions MT Keller says, little dominan minority has tied down the safety valve of free discussion until an eX- plosion impends which will scatter the Republicans from Maine to Cali fornia."
 "The president has assumed more power than any of his predecessors, MT. Keller, continues. "and tells con- gress what bills to pass and what no to pass. Bills concocted at secret conferences are introduced without being referred to a responsible com mittee. The presidents advisers seem to think it possible for thi: country to lift itself by it's economic boot straps and vaguely promise tha' fs half billion dollar gift to the rail- roads-which in some mysteriou: manner is not to increase taxes-wil restore prosperity" They would dC better to busy themselves with lower ing rates taking off the transporta ton tax and seeing to 1t that the rail roads are run efficiently. with mini mum of waste. But that is not like ly so long as railroad executives car depend upon the administration fo lavish gifts.

Murder Suspect
 T els Officers
 He's Wrong Man


 LAS VEGAS, New, Aug. 7.-When Burch, neatly attired in Palm Beach suit and straw hat, stepped from the observation platform of an east bound train here last night, he was approached by Sheriff Sam Gay and Chief of Police T. A. McCarter.
 Are you Arthur c. Burch?" asked the chief.
 Yes" was the answer.
 Without another word the chief slipped a pair of handcuffs on Burch's wrists. The prisoner did not raise his voice, but said converse tionally, What's it all about?"
 You are wanted for the murder of John B. Kennedy at Los Angeles" :" said the sheriff.
 That's very interesting" was the response, but you've got the wrong man. With that Burch became un- communicative, but not surly.
 He laughed and chatted with his captors, asked and received permis- sion to send a telegram to his parents at Evanston. Ills, and told the of ficers that he wanted to return and could readily explain his actions He repeated the statement, You've got the wrong man. and then declined to discuss the case further.
 When Burch left the train he was accompanied by three fellow pas sengers, another man and two wom- en. They told the officers. following the arrest, that he was a casual travelling acquaintance. and that he had been the life of the party all the way from Los Angeles, and had kept them amused with jokes and conversation He was held in the little jail here, pending the arrival of officers from Los Angeles, and a group of newspaper men, who came by automobile and arrived several hours ahead of the train bearing the deputy sheriff, were permitted to see him, but were requested to refrain from discussing the charge with him until the officer could see him.

 Fein Prisoner
 Denied Release

DUBLIN. Aug. 7.-All the Sim Fein members Of the Irish republi- can parliament now in prison will have been released by tomorrow, ex, cept John J. McKeown, whS is under conviction for having murdered Dis trict Inspector McGrath.
 The general impression expressed by the newspapers is to the effect that the governments action in free ing the prisoners has been marred by making an exception in the case of McKeoHn.
 McKeown was the. commandant of the Irish republican army in his dis trict and hss acts were endorsed by his chiefs. Hence, his detention in prison, while others gre permitted their freedom, is regarded by the newspapers as indefensibie. All the men are to be released unconditional ly. No paroles have been asked or given.
