Willie those held refused to | discuss the crime further, Prose-1 cutor Herbert E. Wilson said he | was arranging his case rapidly | to ask grand jury indictment of I tile three on murder charges. Mrs. Mauel lialke, Wabash J nurse of Mrs. Saunders and in whose home the fatal weapon and 'personal articles of the slain man wire destroyed, was freed late yesterday under SS.(M)O bond. She had beeu held on a vagrancy charge as an accessory after the fact.

Reports that Mathers had ciaim- ' ed he did no wrong in slaying the pastor were discounted by chief of detectives Fred Simon. “The only thing he would tell us was that he was ’sorry' he killed Mr. Saunders,” Simon said. "The prisoners have closed up like clams and won't tell us anything. Even Mrs. Balke refused to talk." Mathers talked with his attorney, Judson L. Stark, former Marion county prosecutor, for nearly two hours yesterday, the detective chief said.
