Bremer, Ray

Ray Bremer, who as stated last week is serving a 60 day sentence in the county jail, is also being held as a suspect of being the Chili bank robber.  Considerable evidence has been secured by the district attorney and the sheriff who tends to indicate that Bremer is a bad customer for he is wanted in various places for minor crimes and the statements that he has made regarding his past actions and occupations are conflicting in may ways.  When Bremer was at Chili he was seen by two or three persons who saw the Chili bank robber, and they are all quite positive that he looks remarkably like the bank robber, if he is not that gentleman himself.  Without having any intimation that he is being held as a suspect,  Bremer has given evidence that he is fully aware of the supposition and while the efforts of the (unreadable) be of no avail, yet they are working quietly and securing evidence that is damaging.  The Chili bank robber has been considerable of a mystery in many ways and it is to be hoped that the right man has been nabbed.
