The Majors Murder iaI-Confession of
Jewell.
SAN JOSE. May 22d.-In the trial of Ma.
jors, for the murder of Renowden, Jewell
was placed on the stand for the prosecution
to-day. and confessed the whole business.
According to his testimony, the job was en-
gineered by Majors, who prevailed upon
him (Jewell) to commit the deed, furnishing
him everything necessary to its success.
Jewell made a clean breast of the whole
transaction, describing to the minutest de-
tail the manner in which the murder was ac-
complished and his subsequent actions.
During the recital of JEWELS testimony
Majors dandled his child on his knee, his wife
sitting behind him. He did not appear the
least concerned. Jewell looks several years
older than when he was convicted, and has
evidently suffered intense mental torture.
Everyone that heard him credits JEWELS
story as being the only true one. and it seems
certain that Majors cannot escape conviction.
