Baltimore, June 20.-What is declar.

caused J. J. Mullen 10 confess mur-
der Of his fiancee, Regina Reed.
and yesterday in the criminal court
TO plead guilty TO murder in the first
degree on which the death penalty
might have been inflicted.
Both actions greatly surprised po-
lice and prosecution, There was no
direct evidence against him. Mueller's
eX-jaler, corroborated by the sheriff,
tells this story:
An eX-friend OF Miss Reeds, while
Mueller's guilt was still in doubt
wrote TO the jailer, saying that she
had heard from the dead girl in a
dream. She had been told by the
spirit that Mueller had killed her, but
that between the first shot and the
fatal one, the girl had prayed for her
murderer and that his only chance
OF forgiveness was 10 confess and
accept punishment, and that she
awaited him The girls statement
OF her death was read TO Mueller and
he said, Perhaps she is right"
rhat night he Is said 20 have dream.
ed a similar dream and the next day
he quietly sent for the police and sur,
prised them by a full confession. La.
ter he insisted on a plea OF guilty, al
though his attorney was ready TO
fight the case. He was given a life
sentence.

YELLOW PAPERS INFLsMs !APS
SENSATIONAL STORIES FROM
HONOLULU PLAYED UP BY jim.
GO PREss-UNTRUE REPORTS

Toxic, June 2O.-Special dispatches
from San Francisco to Japanese
newspapers are so worded as to in.
dicate that conditions obtaining in
the Hawaiin islands growing out Of
the Japanese plantation laborers
strike are extremely serious.
The dispatches declare that the Jap
anese on the mainland as well as
those in the islands are great,
ly incensed over the treatment ac-
corded their country nad by the Ha-
waiian planters, and that relations are
strained almost 10 the breaking point.
The publishing OF these inflammatory
dispatches is again arousing the pas.
sions OF the people. The sensational
papers are selling the opportunity
and are commenting in a manner TO
arouse japanese feeling. Consul Gen.
eral Uyeno at Honolulu and the Off
cials OF japanese foreign offices are
inclined TO minimize the seriousness
OF the Hawaiian situation. They
frankly declare their belief that the
special dispatches are giving untrue
reports, evidently the work of the jim
20 element among the Japanese OF
Hawaii and on the mainland.
