Family parties and excursions were ar
| ranged SO that he would be more with his
younger brother and sister, but these gradu-
ally palled upon the youth, whose appetite
for liquor had become deep-rooted.
He continued to work for the elevator
| company, but his nights were spent with
the old crowd. His father was frequently
compelled to call him to account for shirk-
ing his work, and they had several dis
agreements over this matter.
Last Saturday night Frank, as usual, was
one of a 'beer-canning'' crowd and did not
return home until II o'clock Sunday morning.
T. ,s said that earlier in the morning he
attempted to commit suicide by drowning,
but this he denies.
The fact remains, however, that he came
home wet from head to foot. His cold
plunge had apparently temporarily cleared
his brain from the effects of the liquor, and
his mother says that he was in good spirits.
Two hours later he left the house. carry

He made other statements of a similar
character when he was locked UP in the
East ST. Louis Jail. but yesterday he gave
an entirely different version of the affair.
He said that his father and he were look
ing for rats under wood pile near the
elevator. when a shell became jammed in

shell 1t exploded.

him.
Il was crossing the street when was ar
rested. 1 don't remember saying anything
about my fathers mistreating my mother
and I don't remember saying anything in
the East St. Louis police station"
The boy tells his story In a rather in
coherent manner. Fishing parties. frog
hunting expeditions and rats are jumbled
together to form a theory Of accidental
shooting.
Charles Fields. who accompanied Gregory
to East st. Louis. is held as an accomplice
to the murder. Fields Is % years old and
There is nothing remarkable in Frank
GregOryS features, unless an occasional ex-
preston of rather low order of cunning
can be regarded in that light. His normal
expression is that of a bright boy, a proto-
type of hundreds that may be seen daily on
the streets.
His voice is well modulated and hs only
occasionally lapses into the slang of the
streets. His eyes. however, shift rapidly
while talking, which detracts from an
otherwise honest countenance.

Senator Depew is something of a phil
osopher as well as a politician and cor
poratiOn lawyer.
He said recently that the narrOwest es-
cape Of his life was when he refused,
some thirty years ago. to advance $1,000
to help Alexander Graham Bell and his
father-in-law. the late Gardiner Hubbard
to develop the new talking telegraph,
now so commonly known as the tele-
phone. At that time Mr.. DepeW was
counsel for Vanderbilt's Harlem rail-
road. and Mr.. Hubbard was a railway
mail inspector.
