Chicago Investigator Says Suspect

Talking About"
b. the discounted Press.


CHARLESTON, w. Va, January a.
Belief that a suspect held here in
connection with the Valentine day gang
ster killings in Chicago did not know
what he is talking about" was ex-
pressed last night by John Egan, Chi
cago detective chief, after he had ques-
toned the man for two hours. Egan
'aid the questioning developed numerous
discrepancies between the story of the
suspect and the facts of the slayings
OF the seven gangsters that are now
in possession of authorities.
One of them, the detective stated. was
that the suspect said enc machine gun
was used in the killing. while authorities
knew more than one was involved. His
description of buildings and other de-
tails also varied from the facts, the de-
tective said.
Egan said he would not take the man
to Chicago on the basis of what had
already transpired, but it was planned
to resume the questioning later.
The identity of the suspect has not
been divulged by local authorities.
The detective chief arrived here late
yesterday afternoon in response to a
telegram from Dale G. Casio, investiga-
or for the Kanawha County prosecutors
ONCE. saying that the man in jail would
furnish signed confession and deliver
to you the perpetrators of the Valen-
tine day massacre"
