Folks Identify Body.
Before Asmus body was found,
buried under two feet of earth,
River Forest and May wood police j
had conducted a thorough search of 1
the river where Daughcrty's body. '
manacled and mutilated, was found.
The bodv lay on its left side, the
wrist bound to the ankles, with the
knees against the chest.
The identification was made by
Mr. and Mrs. Richard R. Asmus,
parents of the dead man, who came
here from Bloomington, 111., last
night.
Harvey V. Church, 20 years old,
who bought an automobile from
Daughcrty for $5,400, was in custody
and enroutc back to Chicago from
Adams, Wis., today to be questioned
by the police. In the basement of
his home the police found two hits
bearing the initials of the two auto
mobile salesmen and a base ball bat
and a hatchet alt stained red.
- Suspect Denies Crime.
With Church when he was arrest
ed was his white-haired mother. He
declared he had no knowledge of
how Daugherty met his death and
said he knew nothing of Ausmus.
He insisted he had paid Daugherty
$5,400 for the automobile.
Daugherty, a graduate of Harvard
university and a former resident of
St. Paul, came to Chicago a, short
time ago from Philadelphia. Aus
mus's home was in Bloomington,
111. Both were former service men
and Daugherty was said to have hld
a captain's commission in the tank
corps.

man, appeared at tnc sales agency
Thursday morning and said he want
ed to purchase a car for his father,
who resides at Eagle River, Wis. ,
He arranged for delivery that aflcw,
noon and said he would have a Cer
tified check for $5,400 ready it thai
time at a west side bank. '
The salesmen departed'" with the
machine as arranged, for and it was
not until Friday , that any trace of,
them was obtained. That was when
"the-body of Daugherty was found in
the river j
Detectives- then learned oi the au-.
tomobile purchase by Chureh and
went to, his home. The discovery of
the stained hats, bat and hatchet in
the basement followed. From neigh
bors it was learned that Church had;
taken his mother for a triy into Wis-
! consin and authorities in that state
were asked to arrest him.
