bag containing five cartridges sound in a deserted taxicab following thè shooting. The pollce at first believed thè bag belonged to Josephine Coleman, one of five persons being held In connection with thè investigation.

As a result of his statement, R. J. Johnson, who had formerly said he gave Watson thè gun on thè night of thè shooting, admitted that he had not done so.

A complete report of thè case was made by Patholman Frank Reilly aster thè arrest of Watson as a suspect and thè subsequent arrest of four others. John Coueh, 47, was arrested last night, making thè fifth to be held. Arrests Premature "I knew all that Patrolman Reilly stated In his report, and much more,” Detective Fossatti said. "I was not ready for arrests to be made untll we had made more of an Investigation and had more Information. I was surprised when teporters carne to me for Information conceming thè arrests, as I knew nothing of Patrolman Reilly’s report.” Couch, thè last man arrested, heard thè police wanted to talk with him in connection with thè case and gave himself up. He was thè driver of a taxi which was deserted at thè Union Station following thè shooting and in which a beaded bag containing five large cartridges was sound.

My feet and hands are swollen and I can hardly see.” Trles to Borrow Soda Neighbors said Henderson was around thè neighborhood at 9 o'clock labt night trylng to borrow some soda.
