Jail on suspicion that 1t was he who yes
terday beat Mrs. Barnes and Asabel Dun

Barnes family. Dunton is still uncop-
scious from his injuries. The fact devel-
oped to-day that there had been frequent
quarrels between Barnes and Dunton, the
former being jealous of the latter
Mrs. Barnes first gave Sheriff Tuttle to
understand that the house had been visit
ed by tramp who committed the dou-
BILE assault. To-day, however, she made
a formal statement to the Sheriff. which
the latter said justified him in taking
Barnes into custody. Afterward the
Sheriff went to the Barnes house and in
the yard discovered what is believed to
have been the weapon with which the
bloody work was done-a bark peeler
having a blade two feet in length and a
wooden handle of the same length On
the blade Of the bark peeler were blood
stains and human hair. He discovered
absolutely no evidence of a tramp hay-
ing been in the vicinity last night or
yesterday.
The principals in the case are aged per

De BRAY
CONFESSES CRIME
Acknowledges Writing
Letter to Mintzners
Demanding Coin.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
Ills Broadway, Sept. 20.


Pierre de Bray. the young French
house servant arrested two months ago
on a charge of attempted extortion from
William Mintzner the manager of the
Tewksbury estate at Richmond, made
confession to-day to Sheriff Veale of Con-
ira Costa County at the County Jail in
Martinez De Bray's confession was made
through Max Blum. a Martinez merchant.
acting interpreter, who assisted the
Sheriff and Constable John e. Bouquet
Of San Pablo in the long effort to un-
cover the mystery. De Bray made his
statement in writing. AS well. he wrote
letter to his former employers, Mr.. and
Mrs. Mintzner, acknowledging that he
had written the letter in which he threat
ened to kill the Mintzner family unless
the head Of the family produced $1,000. The
letter notified Mintzner to put the money
at a designated place on the residence
grounds, which are in the foothills east
of Richmond.
A trap was set at night, but owing to
fog the seeker for the money was not
caught until later. The night the letter
was left pistol shot was fired into the
house, and a month before that occur
renee an attempt was made to burn the
Mintzner residence.
Although De Bray denies that he set
the fire or discharged the pistol, Sheriff
Veale is satisfied that his prisoner was
guilty of both crimes, as well rs the one
which he has confessed.
The Sheriff said:
De Bray came to the conclusion that his en-
ployer was rich and that he could force him
TO Weld l am satisfied that he the fire,
and failing worked out the scheme of the pis-
tol shooting and the threatening letter. De
Bray is an educated man and clever enough to
have given US a great deal of effort to uncover
the truth His confession is complete so far
az his admissions about the letter writing are
concerned, and that is the material thing in
the case. He will plead guilty Tomorrow be-
fore the Superior Court.
Mintzner offered $4,000 reward for the ar
rest and conviction of the incendiary,
and. according to Sheriff Veale, the Rich
mond capitalist is satisfied that De Bray
is the man.
