r SPEAKS.
COLUMBUS, March 30.-Berner said to q
press reporter that he was induced to make
his confession Of deliberate murder by parties
around the jail, who told him II he confessed
he might get free. This was before he had
engaged a lawyer. Afterward he had four
attorneys. Their chief aim in the trial was
to destroy the effect of the confession he had
made. They were successful in this, and by
technicalities succeeded In practically keep
ing the confession out of the evidence in the
case. Tom Campbell, of Cincinnati, was the
leading lawyer of the four. To his efforts
was due the fact that Berner was convicted
only of manslaughter instead of murder in
the first degree. Caricatures of Campbell, of
a nature to arouse prejudices and incite in
dignation against him, were circulated in
Cincinnati yesterday, and have beeu posted
in Columbus to-day. Berner's associate in
the crime, the negro who has not been tried,
is one of the prisoners in the Hamilton
county Jail,

Lieutenant Rigget has been wounded in the

The troops are insuficiently supplied with
ammunition. No sign yet of the Fourth
