Xo steps have yet bcn taken lo arrest Paul It.o3 who is charged by his Amoricau wife, known as Glacia Calla, with the murder of her brother. George A. Oarkius. at Ncw-inglon, Ncw-inglon, jSF. It., on January if. The report re-port current yesterday that a warrant had been received in "Paris for the arrest ar-rest of Hoy was incorrect. Neither through the State department at Washington Wash-ington nor the New 'York police have tho French authorities been notified of tho commission of this alleged crime. M. llamard, chief of the surety depart-incut, depart-incut, says that when the papers arrive here, a French magistrate will make an investigation, the result of which will determine the subsequent proceedings under, the French law. Tt is now evident that Roy l'ully expected ex-pected he would have to answer a charge In connection with the death of Carkjns, as it vrns learned today that .M. Goron, a defective, was engaged by Roy to collect testimony, and has been working on the case for scvcrnl weeks. Goron said today that Glacia Cnlla on the -4 tli of January, two days aftor the killing, gave his agent in America a version of Ihc occurrence identical with that nw set forth by Roy. Placos Blame on Wife. "She 1ms since changed her tactics." Gorou continued, "and her solo object now seems to be to implicate .Roy as much as possible." Roy rofnscG to make any further statement in the matter, but Goron, sneaking on behalf of his client, said there was no doubt that Carkins was Glacia Calla 's brother and not l;cr husband. hus-band. Ho says the mistake of Col. Henry Mnpleson, who says the woman admitted to. him that the name of her first husband was Carkins. could have arisen out of Glacia Calla 's habit of using, false names wheu she traveled. As nn instance of this, he says she still called herself Southern after her divorce from Southern, or Murray.' The case is attracting much attention in the French press, and there is much public sympalhy for Roy's father, who is one of the most prominent dealers in blooded horses in Paris. Detective Goron and members of Roy's family are contesting every damaging statement telegraphed lo Paris from America. They insist that the killing was a legitimate act of self-defense. The family fam-ily plainly seeks, to represent that R03' was tho victim of Miss Calla 's wiles, stress being laid upon the family's efforts ef-forts to break off his relations with her. |
