KELLY'S CONFESSION.
1t Turns Out to Be a Tissue of
Lies.
Police Officers Are Confident That
He Is the Murderer of
Sayres.

PORTLAND. Or, Oct. 10.-X. n. Sleeves
and "Bunco" Kelly. under arrest for the
murder of George w. Sayres, whose body
was found floating in the river last Friday,
were indicted to-day by the Grand Jury.
"Bunko" kellY's confession of com plicity
in the murder of Sayres was made in the
form of statement. his allegations being
written when the document was signed by
him. When the statement had been pre-
pared in the office of Chief of Police Mimic
in the presence of the Chief, District At
torney Hum and Kelly's attorney, Kelly
pronounced it the whole truth. He was
not promised immunity from punishment,
but leniency, if he would make a clean
breast of the affair. telling the truth and
all he knew. To this he agreed and it was
with this understanding that he m ade the
statement.
His attorney advised him that if the
statement was not in every respect the
whole truth he must not sign II, as it would
greatly injure his case if shown to be false.
Kelly said he understood that and then
signed the statement. 1t was a tissue of
lies, 80 1t is now claimed, built around
thread of truth. Kelly himself, so the
police authorities maintain, murdered
Oayres.
Kelly's attorneys have withdrawn from
the case, their withdrawal, it is said, being
on account of his signing the statement
which they consider false.
Kelly in his statement says he went to
the engine-h0use at Fulton to meet Sayres
on the night Of the murder. but Sayres did
not meet him. Later in the evening Kelly
Says he saw Sayres, Garthorne and an
other man put off IN boat and he pre-
sumes Garthorne committed the murder.
ihls statement does not agree with the
iacts already established, as Kelly's ap-
pearahce when he arrived in the city OH
lhe night of the murder indicated that he
bad been engaged in struggle.
a. n. Sleeves StoutIy maintains his in
nocepce.
oscar j. Kendall. proprietor of dye
"orKs. was before the Grand Jury to-day
anu the police now believe tina. he acted
as agent for Sleeves in his negotiations
with Kelly for the murder Of Sayres. This
completes the list of suspects in the case.

The bricks and the great beams and
stones lay in one compact mass. To add
TO the horror of 1t there was a constant
cry of the people imprisoned beneath the
mass imploring the men to hurry and get
them out, and in the midst OF these cries
came the voices of children at times. Once
there was a weak voice raised in prayer.
The first body, that of Bertha Karoness.
was taken out just after 4 o'clock. Half
an hour later the fremen came upon eight
year-old Alexander Adams in a cramped
position in ore corner of what had been
his sleeping room. The boy could talk to
the men. and he said, Don't mind nee;
my mother ard father are back of me
somewhere" But the men worked on,
and in ten minutes they had the little fel-
low free and carried him into the school
house. Ae did not seem to be injured in
the slightest particular.
The second corpse recovered was taken
from the rear of what had been the two
story building. It was that of Mr.. Stein
man, aged 81. Then the body Of Abraham
Karoness, 9 years old, was taken out, and

their experience. Louis said he went to
bed half hour before the building fell.
He had just fallen asleep. and suddenly
the crash came. He felt something strike
him and he tainted. When he regalned
consciousness he found himself pinioned
in his bed. A heavy piece of timber was
over his breast. His brother was lying by
his side and was also pinione down. They
talked together until rescued by the fire.
