CHIC?AOO, Nov. II Further action In
the case of Miss Mae Otla, arrested here
laat night charged with plotting to bring
about the murder of her mother, will de
pend, upon the result of an examination to
determine the prisoner's mental condition.
This statement was made today by Chief
of Detective O'Brien after he had seen
Miss Otla, who was pale and hysterical,
calling constantly for her mother.
Mrs. Sarah Otla. Miss Otis' mother, was
Interviewed by telephone at Mauaton, Wis., mother for a consideration of tlOO to bind
today. With reference to the statement
made by detectives who made th arrest
that Mrs. Otla was to be murdered by hired
thugs upon her return to Chicago Saturday
night 'Mrs. Otis declared that she had not
Intended to oome to Chicago on that day,
had made no plans. In fact, and had not
been urged by her daughter to come.
"Mae's last letter," said Mrs. Otis, "was
quite as usual, and made no reference to
my coming home. She wa a cheerful,
normal girl and I am. sure that she la the
victim of some preposterous mistake. I
gave her some money at times, but she
seldom seemed to need It. She was sick a
great deal last summer and I wanted her
to stop work, but she didn't care to follow
my advice. We never had any trouble, for
she waa a good girl and a loving daughter."
It waa In thla Interview that Mrs. Otis
learned of her daughter's arrest and she
expressed her Intention of coming at once
to Chicago to the girl's aid.
Plots with Detective.
. Miss Otis la alleged to have approached
Robert C. Btolpman, a private detective,
with a proposition to do away with her
the bargain end $2,400 when the deed had
been accomplished. Btolpman Informed
the city police and Detective Mackay was
detailed to assume the role of a thug will
ing and competent to "do a Job" which
would have no hospital prelude. Every
arrangement had been completed with the
"thugs" last night and Miss Otla Is said to
have paid over the $100 to bind the bar
gain. The following receipt was taken
from her after her arrest:
Received of Mae L. Otis, M0 East Forty
Sixth Place, lo: balance due, 2.400.
(Signed) ROBERT C. BTOLPMAN.
It Is also alleged that Miss Otis gave
Btolpman a promissory note for the 12,400.
payable after she had collected her moth
er's small fortune. Following the delivery
of this note the "thugs" made known their
true Identity and the arrest waa made.
The prisoner's first visitor today was
Miss Anna Stuvlnga, cashier of a res
taurant near the Rock Island station. 'She
declared that she had persuaded her em
ployer to loan toJUlss Otis the 1100 said to
have been paid over by the latter to the
dectectlves.

ertr brought to his office, where Lieu
tenant Cudmore lecognlsed her as a woman
who four days ago carf.e to the station and
complained somewhat angrily that her
mother thought more cf her money, than
she did of her daughter. Bhe told tha
lieutenant that her mother had several
thousand dollars left by her husband anl
that she refused to share It. with her
daughter.
"I went to Detective Stolpman's office
for advice," said Miss Otis. "I wanted to
look Into my mother's financial affairs and
I told him that my mother thought more
of her money than she did of me. 1
thought I would be happier if I had con
trol of the money. Btolpman promised nie,
that .my mother should 'mysteriously dis
appear.' When I asked what he meant he
said he would get my mother out of the
way and keep her away If 1 were willing
to pay -the price. He suggested various
methods and finally I agreed. I don't
know why. We quarreled, my mother and
I, but 1 loved her and certainly wojild not
want her killed, although she has no,
treated me right."
During the Interview Captain O'Brien
sent for the city physician to resolve
doubts arising from the prisoner's manner
and story as to her sanity.
It was his custom to come to New York
dally to transact business and he was re
turning from such a trip today when Bhot.
