Alleged Confession of a SniIor That Seems
TO Fit the Case.
SPRINGFIELD, o., June 19.-Charles r.
Berry, a well-known real estate man ard
politician, is likely to play an important
part in solving the mystery which hangs
over the great Borden murder at New Bed
ford, Mass. Last October stranger came
to this city ard sought Mr. Berry, who
then ran an employment agency for work.
Mr.. Berry's kind treatment gained the
fellows confidence and he confided to him
that he was a criminal and had murder~1
the Bordens for revenge; also that he was a
sailor.
This sustains the theory that the muir
der was committed by sailor for some
wrong inflicted on his father by Mr.. Bor-
den many years ago The fellow wanted
to give himself up but finally disappeared
Mr. Berry had forgotten the incident nm
til he saw an account of mysterious in
dividual wht related a similar story to a
barber in Jersey City, and the description

Mr. Berry.

North York, but no details can be OBJ

Latest advices from the range add Mer-

probably safe, though reports concerning
it are contradictory.
The towns are about seventy miles from

can be obtained until the train from Vir-
