had been taken to the district attor-
ney's Office and the subsequent rumor
that he had made a confession to the
authorities. Before the public had
time to learn If the report OF con-
fesslon was true came the more start
ling news that during the night Jones
had in his cell in the Tombs attempted
suicide by cutting his throat with a
penl1nife, given him, he says, by At
torney Patrick, also confined in the
Tombs, and for the purpose of getting
rid of a witness to Patrick's alleged
crime.
His crime, according to the confess
sion OF Jones, parts Of which the dis
trict attorneys Office gave out, was
nothing less than the murder of the
millionaire by Attorney Patrick and
the purloining of valuable papers re-
iating to the estate. The taking on OF
Mr. Rice, says Jones, was done by the
internal administration Of some poison,
supposedly mercury, and the final ap-
plication Of a towel saturated with
some anaesthetic, presumably chloro-
form. That portion Of the confession
which has to do with the last moments
OF the old man is the following scene
taking place in the apartments Of the
millionaire and he lying sick in bed:
Rice said: II am very nervous, Mr..
Patrick. / wish you wouldn't trouble
me. Please go away"
Patrick replied: Il have some salts
here, Mr.. Rice, that will cure your
nervousness"
He produced bottle and uncorked
It. The contents smelled to me like
some very strong liniment.
Then Patrick said to me: Get me a
towel and a sponge" l got him both.
Then Patrick said:
Jones, you have to leave" 1 left.
As / was leaving Patrick said: "Tu
remain here until Mr.. Rice gets to
sleep" He closed the door behind me

utes, and soon l heard Mr.. Rice

pushed open the door. I saw Mr.. Rice
lying on his back in bed.
The towel that had given Patrick
was wrapped around the sponge in q
cone shape. This cone was lying d.
rectly over Mr.. Rice's eyes and nose.
Patrick was pressing it down with
his right hand. Patrick did not see
