Police Chief Searing is invest gating a report that, carty this ‘week, a policeman called to ar- rest a burglar in a Seattle home, was told by the burglar that a mistake had been mado and left, the burglar escaping. ‘The slain gunman was identified as Doyle by Capt. Charles Tennant Thursday. He was killed | carly Thursday morning by Patrolman W. O, Dinsmore, on 57th ave. W., Bal lard. Doyle had a criminal record as a room prowler and forger.

Blake, 2216 W. 68th st., on the night of July 26. A washwoman in the home entered heard a burglar prowling about the fr dining room and immediately called the police and Sergt. M. D. Pence and two patrolmen from the Ballard sta- tion were detailed to investigate, ac cording to a report. The Blakes were not at home that evening. The police officer found the man prowling about the house, but the man, when questioned, said that he ‘was a boarder there. The policemen » ,talked with the man for some time, and threatened to arrest him, but fi- nally left the house, evidently con vinced that he had a perfect right to be there. Ali that was stolen was an auto- matic revolver. Chief Searing has pergonally inter. viewed three eye witnesses, and it is expected he will take immediate ac tion. Pence is said to have been on the police force more than 20 years. Think Aged Seattle Man Was Murdered Altho a coast-wide search is being made for George H. Cole, 74 years old, resident of Seattle, who disap- peared from Los Angeles August 5 with $11,500 on his person, no trace has been found of him to date, He is believed to be a victim of &@ giant swindle. Police fear he has been murdered. He was formerly a contractor, according to L. A. Green, an attorney in Los Angeles, and Cole’s stepson.

SHOT THRU AT BRINK OF GRAVE Hightower had found signa of a grave, but investigated no further. He told a newspaper reporter and last night the searching party went out and unearthed the body of the missing priest. Father Healin had been shot thru the heart, probably at the brink of the grave. Cartridges were acattered near by. ‘There was nothing to indicate how long Father Heslin was held captive by his kidnapers before he was mur- dered. Hightower was detained by the po- lice pending the investigation of the .|case and a search for Dolly Mason was instituted. She was believed to Father Heslin was called away from the little priest house at Colma, on the outskirts of San Francisco, a week ago Tuesday night when a man described as evidently a foreigner, greatly excited, his face half conceal ed by an upturned coat coliar, asked the father to come with him to min- ister to a dying friend,. Father Healin never returned. LETTER RECEIVED DEMANDING RANSOM The following day Archbishop 4. ward J. Hanna, of the San Francisco diocese, received a letter supposedly from the kidnapers, demanding $6,500 ransom, giving instructions for its |payment and saying Father Hestin | would be tortured and killed if the ransom were not paid. Since then scores of men forming posses by the dozens have searched every inch of the country south of San Francisco tor trace of the be loved padre, but until shovels Inst |night tore the earth from his con torted form and showed in the faint light of lanterns the aged priest lying bent and crumpled in the shallow grave, no sign of him had been found This morning officers started for the grave to examine by the light of day the locality and to bring back to San neisco the corpse of the mur dered priest. Father Heslin was aged 58 years, He came to Colma, Cal, from Tur: lock, Cal., only a few days before he was kidnaped. He had been in charge of the Turlock parish for the preceding six years, “I am afraid theyll never find the murderer of Father Heslin,” ‘Hightower told police and reporters today. “Why?” he was asked, “Because the man who mur- dered Father Heslin will kill Dolly Mason because she told me,” was the answer, Hightower today was given « rigid grilling by police detectives under the direction of Chief of Po- lice O'Brien, have left San Francisco for Portland. | Be ee pee ee ! ed into & were among little private beach party given the Walt Rierison, Earl Deaver, Walt/ hustlers in the newspaper business winners at Indianola beach last Sun-| Grenfell, John Hanson, Audre Wells and is trying to for the job of cicula- | THE SEATTLE STAR Star Bunch Picnics at Indianola * * &® Here’s Our Ten Champio There were 10 “champeen” Star carrier, is at the butt end of | hustlers, and they were the guests warts, of Richard Burna, president of the Indianola company.

Vlease come at once, Mada lynne.” BURCH 1 NDED KENNEDY MARRY HER The state will contend that Ken nedy, who waa stronger willed than Burch, attempted to extricate himself from the web Mrs. Oben- chain had woven about him, and was shot by Burch during an alterca- tion when he refused to listen to Burch’s pleadings that be marry Mra, Obenchain. The story, as reconstructed by the state, furnishes one of the most amazing examples of selfless devotion—Burch, alleged to be madly in love with Mra. Obenchain, blindly heeding her beck and call thru the years, and, finally, sacrificing his free- dom and possibly his life to win another man as her hus band. Under Sheriff Manning thus 4+ scribed the preventation that will be made to the grand fury: “Burch has been identified as the man who rented an automo bile, The marks of the tires by the roadside at the Glen correspond with those of the machine he rented. “We belleve he was waiting at the Glen for Mra.

I would not want to cause her any trouble—1 don't mean regarding this case—but mental trouble.” DENY STORY OF UNBORN BABE Numerous denials were made to day of the theory that Mra, Oben- chain was attempting to force Ken- nedy to marry her to give a name to an unborn child. According to matrons at the jal, there is no knowledge that Mra Obenchain was about to become a mother. The district attorney's office de- clared it would not follow out such @ theory. Madalynne at 11a, m. sent this telegram to her former husband, Ralph BR. Obapehain, in Chicago: “Dear ph; Wire mo im mediately county Jail if you can leave at once. Will be indicted in the morning.
