Partridge, are frankly of any srounds for holding any Jone, but the District Attorney said he wanted to hear all the known fact# after whioh he would decide whether any detention shall te made. Mr, Partridge, who made an investi- gatian, has reported in writing and by t@ephone that there is nothing to show that Mrs. Hemming was tn any way fo blame. Mr. Young said: “1 fhall be glad to co-operate with Shergft Kelly, and if there is any- thing to show that Mrs. Hemming had any feriminal connection with the mu r of her husband, we vill take sem¢ action, 1 shall hear a that the dheriff has to say about the case, and {shalt probe the mumer fully. “Ith may be, as Sheriff Kelly as- seria that everything has not been expldined and that Mrs. Hemming shouli be questioned more in detail. But @8 far as facts alt present known are concerned, I don't know of pason to hold her. “Ifhshe had lured him to her home, that $vould have ‘been another mat- ter,” fe said, “but she again and again bege@l her husband not to go there. |* it was be who was insistent, ugainst all hg wife's warnings and pleadings. ‘The Hct of Eberhardt in shooting Hemfhing was that.of an insane man, in mg opinion.” SHERIFF 1S DETERMINED TO PRESS THE INVESTIGATION. “1 bm not going to let this Hem- ming} case drop,” said Sheriff Kelly | to-d “T do not intend to let Suffalk County become another Nas- #au Gounty. Women cannot be per- mittefi to shoot their husbands here.” 'Th@ Sheriff apparently referred to the §illing in Westbury of Jacques Lebady by his wife. The latter was acquitted. “Agd for the sake of the community at! labge they are not going to be al- lowe@ to have their husbands killed in S@ffolk County,” the Sheriff con- tinu oy exa fore case hink Mrs. Hemming ahould be net very thoroughly and be to clear up every point in the instead of being permitted to answer only such questions as she ehooges.

It was hom ave her Quty to have prevented the pos- sibli@y of the shooting which she know was so likely to happen if Hem. ming went home with her, “Hperhardt had no right merely as @ deputy sheriff, which ts not a} peace officer's Job, to carry a revolver. | 1 ang going to see if he had obtained ; Ming from attending the funeral father Hele p Newspapers concerning his Sen toward me and litt 2 told him 1 could not do so truthtully and I would not sign such a state ment.
