mother that his homo was being watched,
so ha did not k there.
Couwny Is llttlo. known here, as he vis.
Ited tho city only occasionally.
Key to the Sltuallon-Bec Advertllnsr.
LIMA, O., Nov. J. Two dotoctlves from
Chlcngn who arrived, hero today lo take
charge ot Mr." and Mrs. Churlea Conway,
arrested hern lu connection with the mur
der ot Sophia (I. Blnger In n Chicago
rooming Iiouro Monday night, decided to.
defer their departure to that city until
tomorrow.
This decision was reached after hear
ing of a long statement from Mrs, Con
way, who recited In detail their actions
on the night of the murder and their
movements thereafter. She declared trial
Miss Singer had told her she was tired
of her fiance, William Worthrn, and was
to meet a man whom Mrs. Conway be
lieved to bo Claude Ktlllman. She ald
Miss Singer exhibited to Conway nn Iron
do6r knob, wrapped up In a handker
chief and said Hhe would get tho man
whom she wuh to meet In a lonely place
and wanted Conway to hit hint with It
ho that Bho could get his roll. This
Mrs. Conway said her husband declined
to do and they left Chicago that night
and did not hear of the murder until
later.
Mrs. Conway'H statement to the detec
tives in part follows:
"The last Conway and I saw of Sophia
Singer was about 10:30 o'clock Monday
night. Wo were preparing to leave Chi
cago. Bhe had given us and two
suits of clothes for my husband. Wor
then had left early In the evening. Mlns
Singer, who wuh living with him as his
wife, came In tho house about 8 o'clock.
Met n Svrcll KellaiT.
" 'Oh,' sho said, 'I met the swcllest
fellow named Ktlllman. He Is rather
elderly and has IotB of diamonds. I am
to meet him after 10:30 and wo are going
to a chop suey place.'
"MIbb Blnger asked Conway to go out
with her when she went to meet ptlll
man. 8ho showed him an Iron door knob
covered with ono of Worthen's handkerchiefs.
" 'I'll get him up an alley or soma
place! she said, 'and you rap hint with
this. Wo'll get bis roll.'
"My husband refused. She wanted me
to go out with her, but Conway wouldn't
let mo ana i aian t want to go anyway.
I think she wanted mo to come up to
them with some sympathy 'gag' and
work him for some money. Bhe waa an
gered at us because wo would not go.
"Tho door knob sho showed Conway
was one she had brought from the house
at Indiana avenue. We had moved
Monday from there to S223 Indiana.
"I remember having seen her take the
knob from a door at the first place sev
eral weeks before and put a shoestring
through it. I had forgotten all about
it until I saw her have It again Monday
"We left Sophia about 1 o'clock. Sho
was sitting on our bed talking and
changing from a pair of black shoes to
brown high tops. Wo had been quarel
Ing a little, but she was of changeable
moods and I kissed her good bye.
"Wo went out of the back way and
down an alley. Wo did this because them
waa but one key which Sophia had given
to Worthen. Wo took a street car to
the Interurban station and left for Ham
mond, Ind. I think we got there about
1 o'clock, We stayed ull night in a hotel
there and then went to Rochester, Ind,
The first I knew about the murder waa
Tuesday evening while wo were at Roch
ester waiting for a train."
Mrs. Conway suld they first learned of
Miss Singer's death on the following day,
while riding on a railway train between
Hammond and Rochester, Ind.
Mrs, Conway's story, the pollco say,
differs from the one told by Conway, from
whom she was separated Immediately fol
lowing their arrest.
They declaro Conway admitted he knew
of the murder before leaving Chicago.
After leaving Chicago the couple went
to Hammond, Ind., where they spent the
plsht Tuesday they proceeded to Roch.
