MAY HELD IN HOSPITAL HERE Officers Fail to Connect Unionville Shooting With Heath’s Injury. John G. May. 39, 937 West ThirtyThird street, Is In the detention ward at the city hospital today suffering a hnllet wound in the left side of his face, said to hare been received during an attack made early in the morning of April 12, on the family of Dr. Joseph Fitch,, at Unionrille, near Bloomington. May was arrested yesterday at the home of a relative on a farm near Bedford. Sheriff William Owens of Bedford brought him to Indianapolis last night, and he was questioned by Inspector of Detectives Herbert Fletcher, and Lieutenant Henry Askins. "IH talk when the time comes. I'll talk in court,” was about all the answer the detectives received from May, who, they said, admitted that he was at the home of Dr. Fitch, but denied that he took any part in the attack or the shooting there. Inspector of Detectives Fletcher said May, after much questioning, told him that five men in an automobile took him to Dr. Fitch's home at Unionville and that two of them went to the door and that the shooting started. May said he was in the yard some distance from the house when the bullet hit him in the face. He denied that he took part in the fight. Fletcher said that to the questions used in an effort to connect Heath with the affair that May would only answer that he did not know Heath. HEATH SHOOTING INVESTIGATED. Detectives Hynes and Rugenstein have been investigating the mysterious shooting of Ray Heath, 29, 2154 North Capitol avenue, and admit they are attempting to connect Heath with the Unionvllle affair, but that so far they have been unable to do so. . Dr. G. F. Hobbs, 3083 Northwestern avenue, yas called to the Heath home at 5 a. m. April 12. He found that Heath had been shot in the back, probably with a ,3S-caliber bullet, which passed through a lung and lodged near his heart. After leaving the Heath home the physician notified the police, who investigated Heath’s story that he was accidentally shot while on a fishing trip at Clco creek, north of Noblesvilie. The police allege this tale is untrue. They say that Heath, in company with another man. appeared at a garage at Dearborn and Michigan streets, and told the garage man that Heath was sick. A taxi was called and the driver took Heath and his companion to Massachusetts avenue, where the man got out and ordered the taxi driver to take Heath to the North Capitol avenue address. The detectives have tried vainly to find the man who was with Heath Tuesday morning. Mr. May, a real estate dealer of Indianapolis, is the son-in-law of Dr. Fitch. Between 1 a. m. and 2 a. m. Tuesday Dr. Fitch was attracted by a knock at his door and when he opened it he was hit a stunning blow on the head and a man exclaimed. “We have come to kill the whole damn family.” As the physician fell to the floor unconscious his daughter, Mrs. John G,

English women fixed the height at eight Inches, he said, because they are not “constructed for a becoming or advantageous exposure.

May. secured a revolver and fired five shots nt the attackers. Two shots, she declared, struck two of the men. Tha firing was returned and a bullet hit Ethel May, 11, grunddaugbter of Dr. Fitch, in the hand. George Davis, 20, also fired at the men as'they ran from the house. Near the door was found a bloodstained handkerchief with a bullet bole in it. The handkerchief had been used as a mask. The front of the house was riddled with shot. The telephone wires of the Fitch home were cut. The men escaped in an automobile before Sheriff Walter I'eterson of Bloomington could find them. May filed suit against Dr. Fitch, it is said, charging alienation of the affection of May's wife. Affidavits were sworn out against May at Bloomington. May told the detectives in this city last night that he did not know Heath. Heath, later in the night, when May was placed at the other end of the detention ward at the hospital, declared he did not know May and all knowledge of the Fnlonville affair.
