A STORY OF MURDER
Jones Gives the Details of the
Killing of William
Rice.
(By the Associated Press.)

New York, Feb. 20.-A very dramatic
part In the trial of Lawyer Albert I.
Patrick for the murder of the Texas
millionaire, William Marsh Rice, was
reached this afternoon. Charles z
Jones. the valet, had been relating th3
circumstances leading up to the some
what sudden death of Mr.. Rice i'll Sep
tember. Then plunging at once into the
details he held the attention of his audi
ence to tie end of this recital
Freed of minor points, his story fol-
lows:
I'm August Patrick grew impatient
Mr.. Rice, though an invalid, was living
too long to suit the lawyers purposes
Patrick said he would come to the house
and kill him himself if necessary. He
suggested chloroform and Jones said he
would get some. The idea of chlorofornl
as means was suggested by magazine
article. 1t was determined on after
Jones talked with a physician, who said
person whose heart was affected, as
was Mr.. Rice's. could be most easily
killed with it, and that little trace OF
the drug would be left. Jones got two
ounce vial of 1t by writing TO his brother
in Texas
Jones then branched off into the al
legged plan adopted to weaken the al
ready sick man. This was by giving
him mercury and iron pills. The bills
brought on debilitating diarrhoea. Then
unwittingIy friend brought Mr. Rice
a present of bananas. OF these the OLD
man ate nine. The fruit made him eX-
ccedingly i'll and yet the weakening
doses of mercury were kept up. By Sat
urday. being about the eighth day Of
the last Illness, Mr.. Rice became deli
ricuS. This testimony brought the
Ievents up to Sunday, the day Of death.
and the witness had said that during
these ten days of illness he had kept
Patrick informed of the details person
ally and by telephone.
William Marsh Rice's uick death. de-
clared the witness, was decided at q
conference between Patrick and Jones
held Saturday night. Jones had told
the lawyer of the arrival of a draft for
700. Patrick told him it was time to
apply the chloroform now that the draft
had come and Captain Baker was COM
ing, or they would lose all. Jones
agreed.
Jones here told his story of the actual
killing. He made cone out of a towel,
the small end of which was chloro-
form soaked sponge. Going into the
room where Mr.. Rice lay sleeping he
uickly covered the sleeper's face with
the large end of the cone. Jones rushed
out Of the room. In half an hour he
came back. He removed the cone. Mr..
Rice was dead. Jones swore he tele-
phoned to Patrick the words: "Mr.
Rice is very Ill., the agreed signal be-
tween the two of death. Jones story of
the END was concluded by the statement
that Patrick came to the house and re-
moved all of Mr.. Rices papers.

ON TO CHARLESTON
Merger of Mills and Carolina
and Northern Roads.
Conference 10 Raleigh Yesterday Looking 10
Connecting Raleigh With Marion, S. {.
-. -. Via Fayetteville and Lumbsrton.


There is probability of a merger Of
the Raleigh and Cape Fear Railroad, now
running from Raleigh to Fuquay Springs,
with the Carolina and Northern now run
ring from Marion, S, c., to Lumberton-
or if not merger, an extension of each
to form connection.
Yesterday there was a conference here
between Nj. J. A. Mills, president of the
Raleigh and Cape Fear and Mr.. f. X.
Proctor, j., representing the Carolina
and Northern. None of the parties de-
sired to talk for publication. 1t may be
that these, roads will not merge or have
any connection, but it looks like it VIII
work out this way:
Mr.. Mills has recently arranged TO
place bonds to extend his road further
South. 1t it believed that he is going to
Fayetteville via Ellington, though 1t Is
probable that he has not himself yet de-
ternined upon the destination. One thing
is determined on: a Southern extension.
The Can DINA and Northern are getting
ready to extend their road Northward,
and the Manufacturers Record says that
they will build north to Fayetteville and
southeast to Charleston. What more
natural than that they should build north
TO Fayetteville as MIR. Mills builds south
to Fayetteville, making traffic arrange
monts, if there is no closer alliance? The
Carolina and Northern is also planning
to extend their road from Marion S. c.,
to Charleston, 5. c. Ii thoy do this, and
Mr. Mills builds TO Fayetteville, there is
direct line from Charleston to Raleigh
"a consummation to be deyoutly wished.
