C SUNDAY MORNING, JANUARY 7. 1912 PRICE: 5 CENTS Lost THE CIllIQfTE y lEtfil ' " - i- I Have Suffered The Tortwes of Damned S ay s Riches on Boston Minister Makes Clean Breast of Eis Black Crime Driven to Confession by the Remorseless Lashings of a Conscience. Wanted to Do Justice to An Innocent Girl- Will Probably te Sentenced to Death His A ttorney Makes State ment. Boston, Mass., Jan. 6. Urged by r?zies.ce and remorse, the Rev. Clar ice V. T. Richesoir; in a remarkable statement made today, confesses that I:e caused the death of Avis Linnell, the r'etty little Hyannis choir singer, to whom he was engaged to be mar ried before he became the finance of Miss Violet Edmands. The confession came as a surprise to District Attorney Pelletier, who said Richeson probably would be arraigned on Monday. Faces Death Sentence. It tras stated tonight that Richeson vro-ild plead guilty of murder in the trst degree and would be sentenced to d?ath in the electric chair by Judge Sanderson, the law providing r;0 other alternative. The defense nfil rely upon a commutation of the sentence to imprisonment for life by Governor Foss and the executive coun cil. The Confession. The confession which was written ty Richeson In his cell in the Charles street jail last Wednesday is addressed to Lis counsel and reads as follows: Boston, January 3, 1912. John L. Lee. Esq., "William. A. Morse, Esq., Philip R- Dunbar, Esq., Gentlemen: Deeply penitent for my fin and honestly desiring, as far as in hit power lays, to make atonement, I hereby confess that I am guilty of the cfense of which I stand indicted. I am moved to this course by no in c' ioement of self benefit or leniency. Henious as is my crime, God has rat wholly abandoned me, and my conscience and manhood, however de praved or blighted, will not admit of in? etfll further wronging by a public trial her whose pure, 'young life I have destroyed. . Under the lashings of remorse, I live suffered and am suffering the tor tires of the damned. In this I find a measure of comfort, la my mental anguish I recognize that there is still the mercy of the Mas ter, some remnant of the Divine spark of goodness still lingering with me. I could wish to live only because, within prison walls, I might in some f nail measure redeem my sinful past, help some other despairing soul, and at last find favor with my God. You are instructed to deliver this to the district attorney or to the judge o? the court. Sincerely yours, (Signed) CLARENCE V. T. RICHESON'. Not Insane. After the publication of the con fession District Attorney Pelletier an nounced that he would not accept any modified plea. ' Do you consider Richeson insane?" "No. he is no more insane than you tr T." ' ' Then you do not consider the de fense will take the confession as the railings of an insane man and base i'. defense on insanity." "f do not think reputable counsel In a case of this importance would give out a statement that Richeson had ton fussed he is guilty if they consider td him insane." Attorney Makes Statement. Attorney John L. Lee of counsel to KirheiTn, following the issuance pi iho confession today, said: "This confession' was voluntary. It as not the result of inducements or ey expectation of clemency. The fcan unburdens himself as he did be cause it dlj him good. He has thrown 1-lmseif upon the mercy of the court, lie feels sorry for what he has done. The confession was written by himself and in his own hand. He wrote it on a table in his cell with a fountain pen daring the visit of myself and Attor ney William A. Morse. "The confession was inevitable. I 'ave had more than 150 murder cases, but this caee was different from any them. It was a singular state of f-ffairs. I think this is the best solu tion.1' Mr. Lee refused to say what further Esps might be taken to save the young clergyman from the death penalty. Shocking Crime. -o crime in a decade has attracted Ksore general attention than that of the Rev. Mr. Richeson, who gave to the beautiful young choir singer cyan ide with which she ended her life, go ing to her death firm in the belief that "hat he had given er was a remedy hat would keep her secret from the i hp :.ers cf ths confession flashed V"-'ei- h-3ion with electric swiftness, 't came as a thrilling climax in this wonderful murder mystery. Among the Members 0f the Immanuel Baptist inurch of Cambridge, of which Riche son was pastor when he committed the heinous crime, It proved shocking, in credible. Some of the women who had placed '"sir fatih in the Inocence of the hand some young preacher and were stead iest in the belief that he would be treed by the courts, wept when they "tard the news, saying that they could t,Jt believe it. Telegrams were sent to RIcheson's father, Variant Richeson, at Amherst, Va. He had expressed his belief in the innocence of his son, based on the accused man's personal assurances. He is an old man and the blow, it is feared, will shorten his life. The news of. the confession war ephoned to the family of Moses ' t Edmands at their home in Brc c) ie by Richeson's counsel. . Members of the family denie em selves " to all visitors this e ig. Miss; Violet Edmands, t hom Richeson was to have bee arried eleven days after the dea ,t Miss Avis Linnell, is in hiding another state. She left, it is r imed, to avoid being called as itness at the trial of Richeson wiiuh was to have started a week from Monday next. She was sought during the past few' days at Yonkers, N. Y., by sub poenae servers but was not lo cated. Talk of Lunacy Commission. It is hinted tonight taht Richeson's counsel plan to apply for a commis sion in lunacy to examine into the mental condition of the minister. Ani application will be based on his recent self-mutilation in the cell .at the Charles street jail and the wordina (of his confession in which he asserts that he is "suffering the tortures of the damned." If a lunacy commission should find Richeson sane then the lawyers for the defense will put their hopes in Governor Foss and the executive coun cil. A plea will be made for commuta tion of the sentence to imprisonment for life. Rebels Suffer Crushing Dejeat Tientsin, Jan. 6. The last of the rebels have evacuated Lanchow after a crushing defeat by the three thous and imperial troops who . were sent there to suppress the mutiny. The tracks to the northern railroad have been repaired and all traffic is now moving. A Japanese detachment is guarding the Japanese section of the road and a British force has been dis patched to guard the British section.

LaFollette Scoies Roosevelt ' Danville, 111., Jan. 6. Senator R M. LaFollette vigorously scored Theo dore -Roosevelt today for permitting himself to be bluffed by the Wall Street financiers during the panic of 1907 . . "This much talked of . panic of 1907 was ' simply a manufactured panic," said the Wisconsin Senator. "There was no excuse for it. Do you know what I would have done had I been president then? Well, I would have called ' the bluff and told every one of them I'd appoint a receiver for their banks if they did not stop. Deposits in all the banks in 1907 were upward of $13,000,000,000. Every thing indicated financial soundness and business prosperity. "Wall Street is full of men doing the same things that Morse did," con tinued Senator LaFollette as he went into a discussion of the trusts. "The little fellow, Morse, the banker, is ' in the penitentiary. That is .what usu ally happens they always get the" lit tle fellow." ' . ;' ...

A movement expected to be of ' far-reaching im portance to the South, was inaugurated in this city when at the invitation of Governor . Crowthers, of Maryland, a conference of Southern governbrs and presidents of the railways of the South washeld for the consideration of im migration into the South. The matter was discussed in all its bearings. Practical addresses were made by Governors Mann, of Virginia; and by Presidents Finley, of the South ern Railway; Johnson, of the Norfolk Blease, of South Carolina; Noel, of Missisippi, and Hadley, of Missouri; & Western; White, of the Richmond, Fredericksburg & Potomac Railroad, and others.

Louisiana, Mary land, Mississippi, Missouri, North .Car olina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tenn essee, Texas, Virginia, and West Vir ginia, to be appointed by the govern ors of the respective states ; a repre sentative of each transportation com pany operating in the same' territory, to be appointed by the presidents of such companies the governors of the states and the presidents of the trans portation companies to be, ex-officio, members of this committee, and the chairman of the conference to name as not to exceed one man from eacn or the states. This committee is charged with the duty of formulating and arranging for the execution of a plan by which all . of , the agencies working for increased immigration into the South may be able to cooperate and so to co-relate' their respective ef forts as to secure the best results. TO REVOLUTIONIZE BUSINESS METHODS OE COMMENT Washington, Jan. 6. A plan prac tically revolutionizing the f business methods of the entire federal govern ment and placing all of its half mil lion employes, with the exception of heads of important bureaus under the classified civil service is recommended by the commission on economy and efficiency now in possession of Presi dent Taft. If the cdviL service recom mendation: is. carried out it will have the effect of taking nearly all federal OMces out of politics and-remove from the leaders their present great control of political organizations held through patronage. - - It is the purpose of the president to send the report to the senate accom panied by a message giving his ap- f proval to the recommendations it will make. The message is now practical ly complete. It will be taken up by the cabinet on Tuesday and submitted to congress a week from that date. In its report the committee shows that the .work of different bureaus overlap each other and produce dupli cation of effort that will amaze con gress when the concrete facts are laid before it. . . As a basis for its labors- the commis sion has made a map of the business affairs of the government in every de partment showing even down to the individual, the amount of work he does, how It is done and what it costs. N Congress Took a Rest Saturday WBtehington, Jan. 6. There was no session of either branch of congress today, the senate having adjourned to Monday and the house to tomorrow at noon when tributes to the memory of former Senator Stephen B.

Aside from . the aBove rec he has been . mayor of Hickory Grove for twelve years. This is a record of which 'Squire Newell may be justly proud, for it is doubtful if any one in North Carolina has "such a record of X service to his credit. ' Democrats Keject Bry art's Suggestion E TALK OF TEBVEiTIO C H Paris, Jan. 6. Possibility of inter-, vention in China is- an absorbing topic here but there is a general feeling nevertheless that nothing of a con crete nature has developed to justify in terference by the powers. Among international banking circles the point has been raised that finan cial groups and the powers might ; join in a movement aiming at conser- vation r i China's interests. One fea- f ture of this probably, would include the offer of substantial loans! Trial of Packers Drags Along Chicago, Jan. 6. Practically the en tire court session in the hearing of the beef trust cases today was de voted to an attempt on the part of the defense to induce Jerome H. Pratt to change his opinion as to the au thenticity of the handwriting of J. Og den Armour on correspondence touch ing "pool" operations of the beef trust in 1904. The court allowed Attorney W. M. Borders to cross-examine , Pratt, Ar mour's former, confidential employe, before the direct examination was com pleted. Pratt was finally prepared to say that he could not swear that the notes were made by J. Ogden Armour, although the handwriting resembled that of the beef taron, and the letter on which the marginal notes appeared had been sent to him personally. Attorneys for the Swift group mov ed that the letter be stricken from the evidence on the ground that even if it were evidnc of crim it implicated. only Armour and did not support the contention of a close: conspiracy among all the defendants. ; In ruling ou thepoint Judge ,arr penter laid dovn a definite measure to which the governmentm ust apply it case and indicated that : a world of proof must be presented to support the charges. The court said: "The government is obliged .'and will have to show in this case a com bination or effort on thep art of some of the . defendants or all of them be fore they succeed and unless they do so that is an end to this case. And it they show the concerted action or in dividual action, if you please, of each party arid then show a general situa tion toward which each one of these parties has been working, it is for the jury to say whether, considering the result obtained and considering what the individuals did, there was an un lawful combination. FUNERAL OF ALFRED . TENNYSON DICKENS. New York, Jan. 6. Funeral services for Alfred Tennyson Dickens, son of the late Charles Dickens, took place in Trinity church this afternoon.

Criticism of Biyan By Woodi ow W ilson v Washington, Jan. 6. A letter" said in contain caustic criticism of W. J.' Bryan, written by Woodrow Wilson,. while he was president of Princeton University, to A. H. joiine, oi xsew ork aroused more than a little in terest among the -democratic visitors to Washington this afternoon. The letter, it is stated, feu into the hands of a member of the Prince ton faculty unfriendly to Mr. Wilson and was photographed before it went on its way. This photograph; has now materialized, it is asserted to worry Mr. Wilson.. T Mr. Bryan Js reported to . have heard of -Mr. Wilson's criticism -no less than eight- months ago. In com menting on the letter at that time he said: . "The opinion of Woodrow Wilson as president of Princeton College is one thing, and the pinin of Wood row Wilson, candidate for' the presi dential nomination, is another. I do not believe he would say now what he is reported to have said then, and the letter; does not matter." Vuginia Radicals Endorse Roosevelt " : . Harrisonburg, Va., Jan. 6. At a con ference of representative republicans from the seventh district of Virginia held1 in Harrisonburg this- afternoon, Colonel- Theodore Roosevelt was ; en-" dorsed for the republican candidate for president and a movement inaug urated to send the delegates from Virginia to the national convention pledged for Roosevelt. SOI I IP! Vote was Overwhel m in gly Against Plan 1 hat All Pat iy Councils of Democratic Party be Open to Press And Public 103 to 2. Harrison Led Fight For Re, y solution Compromise Mea sure Adopted Providing jor Journal 0 Caucus Proceed ingsSlap at Bryan. '.Washington, Jan. 6. The suggestion of William Jennings Bryan that all party, councils of the democratic party should be open to the press and pub lic was overwhelmingly rejected to night by the democrats of the house in caucus. The caucus, by, a vote of 103 to 2,, adopted, a compromise, plan which'merely provides that a "journal' of caucus proceedings shall be kept. Representative Harrison, of Missis sippi, led : the fight for an open cau cus, but his resolution was voted down without ceremony. Then the compro mise resolution, prepared by Repre sentatives Palmer, Underwood, and Hardy, a committee named to inquire into the advisability of the public cau ous, was presented and "adopted. The democrats discussed the caucus rule for three hours. AL few ' demo crats were opposed altogether to cau cus publicity. It was ordained from the beginning, however, that the plan agreed upon by the house leaders should . go through and the rank and file fell into line, nicely for the final vote. The resolution adopted reads '. "Resolved that thecauus shall keep , a journal . of its proceedings, which shall be published after each meeting, and the yeas and. nays on any question shall, at the desire of one-fifth of those present, be entered on the journal." The "journal" plan is something ntw in , the caucus line and memhers of th press are unable to see where it will prove of any material use, since It i not provided that the v journal shall contain a recdrd of the speeches made or of any factional ' difference that sometimes enliven party councils. Again Slap Bryan. . ' After again slapping Mr. Bryan in the face the democratic caucus ad journed without taking up the tariff or other party problems. : The caucus confirmed " the nominations of the "steering committee", assignments : Representative Stephens, Of Ne braska, to the committee on accounts and committee on Indian affairs; Rep resentative 'Taggart, of Kansas, to the committee on agriculture and the com-, mittee on expenditures in the treasury ; Representative , McKellar, of Tennes see, to the committee on military af fairs and the committee on railways and canals.. The foregoing ar all new members of the house, elected to fill vacancies caused by death. Representa tive Redfield, of New York, already a member of two committees, was given a place also on Invalid pensions. James J. O'Brien of Jersey City, was named as journal clerk for future caucuses.- . ' ' '- Burns Released on Habeas Corpus Indianapolis, Ind.; Jan. 6. Federal Judge A. B. Anderson today issued a writ of, habeas - corpus releasing De tective William J. Burns from the custody of the county authorities. His bondsmen had surrendered him to the county criminal court, where he stands indicted on the charge of kid napping J. - J. McNamara. The writ is returnable on Janu ary 11 when the case will.be argued before Judge Anderson. Burns will offer the plea that in removing J. J.
