POLICE QUESTION
 DETECTIVES WIFE
Woman Held in Connection With
 Child'S Mother >.

Denver, Colo, Oct. 20 R - Mrs. Pearl O'Loughlin, wife of a city de- tective, was held for questioning to- day by police investigators who have established that her 10 year old stepdaughter Leona O'Loughlin, was the victim of brutal murder.
 Mrs. O'Loughlin was arrested yes- terday when an autopsy on the child's body revealed, physicians said. that she had been fed ground glass, beaten unconscious and hurled into the lake to drown. Her body was found in the lake last Friday.
 The stepmother of the youthful victim asserted during hours of ques- tioning yesterday that she knew nothing about the staying or the presence of glass in Leona's stom- ach. She remained overnight in the matron's quarters with no charge lodged against her.
 The slain girls father Leo O'Loughlin, is in a hospital appar- ently recovering from eating ground glass. When questioned by police Mrs. OLoughlin. said she had been i'll, as also had her son by a previ- ous marriage, Douglas Millican. 8. She said she believed the illness was induced by eating glass. Physicians conducted an eXamina- tion, but said they could find no symptoms other than that the wom- an was weak from a 4S-hour fast. Find Bloody Towel
 Officers said they had found a l blood stained tire iron, wisps of the childs hair and bloody towel in the O'Loughlin automobile which Mrs. O'Loughlin used twice the night her stepdaughter disappeared.
 Mrs. O'Loughlin explained the towel had been used to stop a nose bleed suffered by her son.
 Physicians said the slain girls body had enough glass in the viscera to have caused death within five or six hours, but cling to the belief that she died from drowning after hav- ing been knocked unconscious with two blows on the head.
 Frank OLoughlin. who lives at the home of his brother Leo, volun- tarily went to the police station for questioning and subsequently was released.

ACCIDENT VICTIM
 IDENTIFIED BY SON
Andrew KatauskaS in Critical Condition at Hospital

Identification of the man who was struck by an automobile driven by John Bruzas of 77 West street at an early hour Saturday, morning was made yesterday by his son, John Katauskas. who stated that a description of the victim which he read yesterday afternoon in a Sat- urday afternoon paper tallied with that of hiss father and in view of the fact that his parent had not been home since Friday night he went to the hospital to see if the victim might not be his father His fears proved true, for on ar rival at the hospital he was shown the man and immediately identified him as his father. The man proved to be Andrew Katauskas of 792 Stanley street. He is an employe of Landers, Frary & Clark.
 Katauskas has been unconscious since the accident and had not re- covered his senses at ? o'clock this afternoon, according to advice re- ceived from hospital attaches. His case is still regarded as critical.
 Several witnesses to the accident have been discovered by Sergeant Patrick J. O'Mara, who is conduct ing the police Investigation of the accident. The stories of these wit nesses vary in detail.
 Versions of Mishap Differ According to Bruzas' account of the affair, Katauskas walked into the left rear part of his automobile, while Matthew Mcclure. who is all legged to have been driving just be- hind Bruzas, stated that it was the right front fender of Bruzas' car that struck the man. McG uire claims that he saw Katauskas before the other mans car struck him and says that he was practically across the intersection before he was knocked down.
 After getting the various versions of the accident from the several witnesses, the sergeant turned the matter over to the detective bureau for further Investigation.
 Police reported today that no ac- ton would be taken by them unless Katauskas' injuries should prove fatal.

Ca bot street, he said, was certainly in need of repairs and he had no ob- jection to gra ing york there, but this is not the time of year to lay nacadam and furthermore, he said, 60 per cent of the cost of macadam is represented in materials, while 100 per cent of the cost of grading is labor. Therefore, grading work provides way out of the unemploy- ment situation and the bulk of the $100,O00 will be spent that way.
 The council will also act on a proposed issue of s150,00O sewer bonds.
