TELLS HIS STORY.
On Trial for. Murder, George Wood
- Knows Nothing Of the Crime.

Somerville. n. j., May 17.-George
Wood the young New York man. who
is on trial here, charged with the mur-
der of George Williams of Watching,
today, told his story to the jury. He
said he knew nothing Of what occurred
after "a little black man began to
drill a lesson into my mind" when he
was on his way to Searsdale. Penn.
until several days later when he found
himself in the Tombs prison in New
York, charged with murder. Wood
said he started for Searsdale with Hen
ry Wolf and man named Mack to
get $1,000 from Mack's father. They left
the train at a junction where they had
dinner and drank glass OF beer. Ac-
cording to Woods attorney, Wolf has
no existence except in Woods imag-
matiOn.
while sitting in the cafe said
Wood. "a little dark man came in and
about the same time Wolf and Mack
disappeared. The little black man and
Wolf afterward took a train. All this
time l felt queer and the black man
seemed to be drilling lesson into my
mind. That queer sensation continued
until the Sunday found myself in the
Tombs in New York.
Wood denied that he had ever known
Williams or that he had ever seen him
to his knowledge. When the direct
question: Did you kill George Will
liams?' was put to him by his coun-
sci. he replied. "NO, positively, I did
hot
Wood said that Wolf had always
been his evil genius and has made
much trouble for him. "When Wolf or
dered me to do certain thing I had
to do it, said he. 81 could not DISC
hey him." He said that Wolf claimed
a secret relationship with him and that
II WAS by threats against his (WOod's)
father that Wolf exercised his strange
influence.

This could be done without delay be-
cause NehoSatoff's ships had been

out that the cleaning and coaling were
done in the Indian ocean. but this may
have been asserted to avoid explaining

was doing so long in British territorial

MARX HANeED.
Murderer Executed At
Wethefsfield, CT.
Convicted Of killing RedsekI
at Colchester, in 1904 !
Weat 10 DeaA WhAeut a Trenof or Even
Asserting His laaeeanse.

Hartford, CT, May 1S.-For one of
the most horrible murders ever brought
to light in this state, Dershom Marx.
the 1S-year-old farmer Of Colchester,
was executed. this morning. at the
state prison in Wethersfield.
The execution of Marx was one of
me most successful ever carried out
at the state prison. there being no re-
hlohstrance by the prisoner and no
hitch in any of the arrangements by
the prison officials. The slayer of Pa
vol Rodeck1 his farm hand, was led
to the chamber by Deputy Warden
baisden and an assistant, at 1907, the
moose was adjusted with slight groan
from the murderer, and. at lo.12. he
was declared dead after the examina-
ton Of the body by DR.. Fox. the pris-
on physician.
Marx would make no mention Of the
crime of which he was convicted and
he failed even TO proclaim his inno-
cence of the brutal murder. When he
reached the execution chamber, Marx
stepped to the small platform without
finch. The trap was sprung by War
den Garvin. in the presence of w. o.
Burr Thomas Dudley Wells and A. E.
Fuller Of the State Prison Board, the
deputy warden and his assistant, Dr.
Fox and representatives of the press.
The murder for which Marx was con-
dcmned to death was one of the most
horrible that has been committed in
this state for years and the only rea-
son for it was the fact that Marx did
rot want to pay Rodecki a small sum
Of money agreed upon when Rodecki
went to work for him. Rodecki, who
was Russian. took work on Marks
farm for six months and it was a few
days before the expiration of thai
period that he disappeared. When Marx
w?s asked concerning his farm hand his
reply was that he had paid him $53 and
that he had gone away.
One day in the latter part of April
last year. another farm hand discovered
the body Of ROdecki in an abandoned
cellar on Marks farm. The body was
chopped in many pieces. the head
which was cut off, was crushed in and
the several portions Of the body were
thrown together in a cloth bag, which
was half buried under a pile Of dirt
and stones. Marx had killed Rodecki
as he lay asleep in the formers house.
Immediately after the finding of the
body Marx was missing, but was locat-'
ed after q long search in New York.
where it was said he was about to sail
for Europe. He had shaved his beard
SO that his appearance was greatly al
tered After his capture and return to
New London county the officers in
searching about the Marx farm, came
upon another body similarly dismem-
bered and buried in an out-of the way
place. The skull of this body was also
crushed in. There vas theory tina.
this was the body of another man who
had formerly worked for Marx. Paul
Parker. and who disappeared suddenly
as Rodecki did. Marx said that Parker
had been paid off and gone to Pennsyl-
vania to work in the coal mines.
The supreme court recently denied an
application for new trial for Marx
and afterward his effort to get his SEN
tcnce changed to Imprisonment for life
was unsuccessful.
