SLEUTH PLAYED BOTH ENDS
Chicago Detective Lived With Woman
He Had Been Hired by Husband
to Find.

Chicago-The story of a detective
living with the wife of man who had
sent him out to find her was told by
DR.. Sebastian Becker of Chicago, who
says the sleuth presented expense ac-
counts which supported the couple
when they were paid. A warrant has
been sworn out for the arrest Of Ray
w. Smedley, the detective.
Becker's wife disappeared several
weeks ago, her husband says, and
Smedley came to him offering to find
the missing woman. There began then,
the doctor says, what he thought was
a nationwide search. Bills were re-
ceived from all parts of the country.
Becker became disguised when he
had spent 5000 in the hunt, he says,
and put another detective on the job.
This man found the detective and
Becker's wife living together in Chi
cago. They had been forcing Becker
to support them. Smedley has disap-
peared.
