F (Special from a Staff Correspondent of The Evening World.) BOSTON, Oct. 23.—For the first time since his arrest for the sim gularly heartless slaying of nineteen-year-old Avis Linnell, the Rev. Clas ence V. T. Richeson broke silence to-day and cried his innocence, “1 am innocent and will prove it when the time comes,” he pro» claimed, asking that the statement be made public, to set at rest certain reports that he had made a confession in his cell ia the C Charles street jail. The Rev. George Holt, the young Rhode Island Baptist clergyman, who is engaged to Rose Edmands, sister of Richeson’s fiancee, carried the accused man’s declaration of innocence from his cell, It has been rumored before the Linnell tragedy that the Rev. Mr. Holt had objected when his flancee's sister had engaged herselt to "Richeson. It was gossiped among friends of the Edmandses that the two young men frankly disliked each other, But to- day the Rev. Mr. Holt journeyed from the Edmands mansion In Brookline to the Charles Street Jail and had a long conference with the nei cused man. Coming out of the jail he gave out the prisoner's declaration without comment. PRESENT CASE TO GRAND JURY THURSDAY. In order to forestall an attempt by the defense to get at the nature of the prosecution's evidence in a judicial hearing, the murder charge agalneg the Rev. Mr. Richeson will go before @ special term of the Grand Jury om ‘Thursday. It wil! be presen dd, the prosecutors assert, without “a guess OF ‘a surmise” In the fabric of the Commonwealth's complaint. District-Attorney Joseph C, Pelletler indorsed the work of the poltes, this afternoon as having absolutely clinched the case for murder. He, @8 * well as Chief Inspector Dugan, se offed at the alleged theory of the defense) that a hitherto unheard-of suitor had provided the pretty singer with the © deadly cyanide and deceived her into the bellef that it was “medicine” that would bring about a desired change in her physical condition. “In the whole case so far there is not a guess or a surmise,” declared Inspector Dugan, “but that does not mean that we are going to let up im our work of investigation.” While the pollce say tnat they have positive proof that the clergymuaty met Avis Linnell tn Bosten on the day she died, they have not yet secured the sort of evidence that Prosecutor Pelletier desires to produce on trial, XPERT CHEMIST TO IDENTIFY POISON, Prof. Whitney of the Harvard Medical School 18 making a full analysla of the stomach of the dead girl, so that the polson found in the stomach may be compared with the cyanide of potassium kept in stock at Druggist William H, Hahn of Newton Centre. It 18 expected that the result of this analysis will be placed before the Grand Jury, It was polnted out by medical experts to-day that {f the chem{sts should find that the stomach of the dead girl contained a very much larger quan- tity of poison than was sold to Rev, Mr. Richeson, or more than the fifteen grains specified in the complaint, a new complication would arise whieh might add much to the hopes of the defense. A representative of the law office of Dunbar & Rachemann, counsel for the accused minister, visited the jail to-day and had an extended conference with Richeson. The declaration to- that counsel for Richeson have discovered the psistence of another euitor of the murdered Avis Linnell, and that they will ek to prove that this unknown man hao as strong a motive to slay ag tld the accused pastor has awakened indignation among the host of friends yf the little Hyannis singer, who died after taking cyanide of potassium, This injection of a mysterious third person into the case has also stirred the police to denial and to Increased activities along new lines of Inv stigation Neither den-haired at Hyannis nor In the little clrele in Boston, which knew gol- Avis Linnell intimately, had a second suitor ever made his existence known, During the months that the young girl lived at the Young Women's Christian Association here, while studying at the New England Conservatory of Music, she divided her tlme almost exclusively hb tween her temporary home and the conservatory. She made several close friends at the ¥. W, C. A. to all of whom she mentioned the name of Richeson as her friend. She never spoke of another suitor and was never seen in the company of another man by any of her girl companions. SOUNSEL FAILS TO SHOW “OTHER MAN,” It 1s true that the attractive little singer had many male admirers In Hyannis and that when Richeson began to monopolize her attention }e e
