BRAIN CONFESSEs
TO |NCEND|AR|SM
POINTS OUT TO POLICE PLACES
HE FILED
Authorities Will Endeavor to Have
Him Punished, Though Insanity
Is Suspected-other Pyro-
maniacs Wanted

James Brain alias Brady, an 1S-year-
old degenerate, held at the police sta
ton since Friday morning on suspicion
of being a pyromaniac, made a con-
fession yesterday to Detective Davis
and others that he had set at least
six fires within the past two weeks.
Ever since the lads arrest he has
been closely examined and "sweated,"
until after numerous evasions and coll
Trajectory statements he finally broke
down, and, accompanied by Detectives
Davis and Roberds, went to the scene
of several OF the incendiary fires, show
ing how he accomplished his nefarious
purpose.
While admitting that the young man
is a degenerate, the detectives believe
he is morally conscious of his guilt
and they will ask that a felony COM
plaint be made out against Brain, this
morning, charging him with arson.
Of Good Family
Brain comes of a respectable Chicago
family, his father being employed in
the business office of the Chicago News.
His brother, Albert e. Brain, of this
city. is an expert art glass designer
employed at the art glass works of
H. Raphael & Co., 507 South Main
street.
Mr.. Brain has secured the services of
Wallace W. Wideman as attorney and
an effort will be made to have the
self-confessed pyromaniac examined ON
an insanity charge and committed to
Highland.
The police department will resist such
action, believing that the prisoner is
responsible for his actions and that he
should suffer the penalty of his sue
cession of crimes.
1t was learned yesterday that Albert
Brain finally located his degenerate
brother through the newspapers and
upon going to the station discovered
that James Brady was in reality James
Brain, who was shipped out here from
Chicago several months ago and placed
in the charge of his brother.
Disappears From Home
The young man disappeared from the
Edendale home of his brother and has
been wandering about for four weeks,
amusing himself in various ways sug-
gested by a perverted imagination, set
ting fires being his chief source Of
pleasure.
When asked by the detectives yester-
day why he had risked valuable prop
erty merely to satisfy his whim he
replied vaguely that he liked the ex-
citement of seeing the fires burn and
watching the fire department turn out.
Apparently without any feelings of
remorse, or compunction for the lives
endangered, the property jeopardized.
Brain answered all the questions put
to him glibly and except when stopping
because of peculiar nervous tremble
in his voice. he seemed ready to con-
fess all that he had done.
The police think that there may be
others who have set fires beside the
young man in Jail.
Confesses to Incendlarism
He readily confessed to setting the
fires Thursday night and some of the

CHINA SHOWS
TROOP STRATEGY
COMMANDER DIsP0SES OF HIS
ARTILLERY
On Pretext Of Guarding Against In.

Keeps Capital Approaches
Blocked
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
LONDON, March 6.-The Tribune's
correspondent at Peking describes the
interesting strategic disposition of
troops by Yuan Shi Ki, commander of
the Chinese forces.
He has stationed four batteries of
field artillery at Chin Chow, province
of Human on the Yuen river, under
pretense that bandits are approaching.
This arrangement guards the northern
approach to the capital, cutting the
caravan route from Manchuria to Pc
king.
He also is sending eight batteries Of
rapid fire guns to Shuntefu under the
pretext that a secret society there is
exhibiting unrest, thus guarding the
southern approach to the capital and
cutting the Hankow and Peking road.
Yuan Shi Kai retains 26 modified
Krupp guns, the most modern pieces
in China, at the Hunting park, three
miles south of Peking.
