Chester Special to Columbia Stat Oct. 2.?Attorneys here of Biss? Bigham and John Frazer, Jr., arres ed one week ago on a charge of coi plicity in the robbery at Parr Shoe September 5, when a paymaster the J. G. White Construction Coi pnny was held up and robbed of $lt 000, tonight gave out a stateme saying the two young men were sei and recognized in Chester during t time in which they were alleged have been at Parr Shoals. The stat ment opens by saying that it h been deemed advisable to reply view of the lengthy and inconsiste statements which have appeared fro Burns detectives and J. T. McLella superintendent of the John G. Whi Construction Company. It goes on: "The arrest of the two men is farcical and humiliatii and the charge of this crime to the preposterous. The repetition ai publication of the fabrications of tl alleged evidence against them is on adding insult to injury, falsehood wrong, and injustice to malignit The positive proof by many of Che ter's best citizens shows conclusive that both men were in Chester eat and every day of the time of the ro bery, when they are charged wii being elsewhere. Neither of the was away from Chester at this tim and both were seen, talked to. assi ciated with and known and recoi nized on frequent and separate oce; sions during this time by men wt have been in Chester a life time an are above reproach or impeach men "As to the alleged identification I seven men as first claimed and lati by only two, it is sufficient to si that no fear is felt on this scor Mayor William J. Simpson made t investigation of the alleged pa taken by Chief of Police J. L. Sai ders in the identification. The muy< had Mr. McLellan called over tl long distance 'phone on Mondi night, September 29, and Chief i Police J. L. Sanders talked with M McLellan. The chief requested copy of the only letter he ever wro on the subject and it is set forth i follows: " 'Chester, S. C., Sept. llf '13. " 'John G. White Construction Co., " 'Peak, S. C. " 'Gentleman: " 'If you have a man who thinl he could identify one or all of tl men who committed the robbery c the 5th. I would like very much have him pay Chester a visit and r his arrival look me up. If you hm such a man. confine him to the u most secrecy as this matter will hai to he handled with considerable car nease auvise me ny reiurn ma If I may expect your man and who and by all means keep this lettor 1 absolntp secrecy. " 'Yours very respectfully, " 'J. L. SANDERS. " 'Chief of PoUpp.' "Chief Sandprs statps absolutpl and positivplv that npvpr at any tirr did Hancock, in a restaurant or an; where else, or did anybody else, poll out and identify John Frazer, Ji to him. or in his presence. In fac the letter written by Thief Sandei was sent before he had any inform; tion that either Frazer or Righai were suspected. The chief was the and is now ready and willing to aid 1 finding the guilty man. hut did n< write any letters implicating thes boys. If Mr. McLellan has any lettei from any other Chester citizens t any tips by a well known Chest* man, which seeks to implicate thei men, he may rest assured that th aforesaid well known citizen can n< go upon the witness stand and sul stantiate such letters. "The theory that these men le Chester Wednesday night precedin the robbery and did not return unt Sunday night or the Monday mori mg following in an automobile, is ui founded and eliminated by the ur successful efforts of the detectives t loui uir nm ll I-VIUCII1C Here I Till several mpn whom they are known t have approached after the arrest f( this purpose."
