Canton, O., July 30. Detective Ora
Sinter, who heads the investigation
here into the murder of Don R. Mel
lett, publisher of the Canton News,
went to YoungstowiiThursday after
noon with a mysterious witness to
confront Mike Contos, held there at
Slater's reauest. in connection with
the Investigation.
Slater acted on information sent
Prosecutor C. M. McClintock by De
tective Peter Connors, Pittsburgh,
that Contos and George Pailias,
known as "George the Greek," have
been 'identified by John Ritz a Som
ersett (Pa.) miner, as the two men
who urged him and another man to
do "a job" in Canton about the time
of the Mellett murder. The two men
were promised $1,500 for the "job"
Ritz told Connors, according to the
telegram to the prosecutor.
After the mysterious Canton wit
ness has seen Contos, Slater may go to
Pittsburgh, declaring he is being
"framed" in the -murder investigation
and that he is not safe outside the
jail. A Canton witness failed to ident
ify Psilias a week ago as a man seen
near the Mellett home shortly before
the murder.
In reply to Connors telesram Mc
Clintock wired that Slater is working
on another promising lead which
"looks good."
The services of Joseph Roach,
Chicago criminal lawyer, have been
sought in an effort to uncover the
murderers and to drive out commer
cialied vice. Roach had a record of
having "cleaned up" situations some
what similar in Terre Haute and In
dianapolis, the investigators said.
