Alice Mitchell CooiIy Relates the Brutal
Murder of Freda ward.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, July 2S.-Thc ninth
days proceedings in the Alice Mitchell
insanity inquiry found the defense's
ease closed.
Miss Mitchell, the defendant, was
placed upon the stand and there was n
great ~craning of nccks by the audience
to obtain a view of her. She suffered
no embarrassment, but answered all
questions coolly and nationally. She
said she had known Freda ever since
she could remember. The defendant
told of her following Freda and of
the latter winking at her with her
right eye which signifed II love YOU"
She told this coolly enough, but when
she came 60 following Freda down the
hill saying "shc wanted to see her once
more" she burst into tears.
Then followed a most remarkable
scene, unparalleled in court annals per-
haps. This young girl, without dis
playing the slightest remorsc or even
of manner, told down to
the most trivial detail the story of how
and why she murdered Freda Ward.
She said:
II took the razor out while going down
the hill toward the boat. When 1
reached Freda l cut her with the razor.
AS cut her throat she tried to say some
thing. l intended to cut Freda's throat
and then mine, but her sister, 10, made
me mad by striking me with an UNI
brclla, so, after slashing at 10, / fol-
lowed Freda and cut her again. All
wanted to do was to cut her so as to
kill loved her better than anyone in
the world"
She expressed n desire to die, now
that Freda was no more.

TRAGEDY IN PHILADELPHIA

A Banker Murdered In His ONCE By .
Customer, Who Then Kills Himself
Losses In specuistioa the Cause.
PHILADELPHIA, July 2s.-Stock gam
bling brought about a tragedy yester-
| day as a result of which Charles II.
Page, a well known broker, lies dead al
his home, as~sassinated by q customer.
Ronald Kennedy, who has closed his
own account with the same weapon that
ended the brokers career. No n wit
messed the murder and suicide. The
only one who could have thrown any
light upon the encounter left the Office
| where 1t occurred as the murderer en-
tered, and half a minute later oil was
over.
The scene of the double crime was In
| the Offices Of Il. d. Page & Brother,
bankers and brokers at 1872 South Fourth
street, one OF tho busiest portions of the
city. The senior member of the firm,
Mr.. II. ID. Page, was absent and in addi-
ton to the junior members of the firm
there was a clerk, Ed Hallowc1l. The
Inter was leaving the offices by
a real door at 11:15 q. m, and
observed n man coming in by
the front entrance. The clerk
recognized the newcomer as a former
customer, Ronald Kennedy, and con-
tinued or his way. He had rome but q
few PAGES when he heard two shots
fired in succession. With othcrs he
rushed in just in time to see Broker
Page gasp his last breath. lie had
been shot In the back while attempting
to escape and had reached the rear
doorway, where he fell and died almost
instantly.
Into the front of the Office the crowd
ncdy, dead upon his face in front Of the
ticker, a bullet wound in his head and
his revolver lying beneath. Nothing
could be done but inform the coroner,
who took charge of the place and en-
deavorcd TO ascertain the cause of the
assassin's act
Tho brokers' wife and child were alb
sent ut Cape May and other of the fami-
ly were also out ofreach. lIallowell, the
clerk who has been eight years with
the firm, was the only person who knew
anything of the transactions of the two
dead men. He says that it is two
years since Kennedy first came to
the Office and began dealing on 10
and IL per cent. margins, chiefly
in Atchison. For several months
his transactions were profitable and he
made from $1,000 to eco, 900. Then the
tables turned and Kennedy lost as much
as he had made In u short time. Halo
well declares that the firm only bought
and sold as directed by Kennedy, who
deposited Pennsylvania railroad stock
as collateral. When the Spectator lost,
this was sold to cover the margin. The
dead broker always kept Kennedy's ac-
counts according To the clerk and gen.
orally had some difficulty in making his
customer understand them even when
they were in his favor.
Hallowell decla res that Kennedy
came out about even on his ventures.
For n year past he has dropped into the
office occasionally, sometimes without
speaking to anyone and generally cx-
aiming the ticker. He was re garded
as n crank of the harmless variety and
had never made any threats.
