MASSACHUSETTS DIR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE TO BE
TRIED FOR MURDER AFTER YEAR IN INSANE WARD

Claimed by Police to Be Respect
able Citizen by Day and Fiend
Incarnate by Night.
Springfield, Mass, Nov. 13.-
Bertram G. Spencer, the cdr.
Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde" of Massa-
chusetts, was placed on trial for
the murder of Miss Martha
Blackstone today.
Spencer's arrest created SEN
sation throughout this state,
where he was regarded as sterl-
ing young business man.
The police say he was a re-
spectacle citizen by day and a
fend incarnate by night.
On the night of her murder,
Miss Blackstone was visiting the
Dow family on fashionable Round
Hill.
The women were sitting round
a table in the living room, when
suddenly masked man appeared
in the doorway. He pointed re-
volver into the room and COM
manded silence. -.
One of the women screamed.
The bandit commenced firing.
Miss Blackstone was killed, and
Miss Harriet Dow shot in the
head. Miss Dow recovered.
The city was aroused. Ahuge
reward was offered for the muir
derer. Private detectives took up
the search.
Finally, Spencer was arrested
in the home where he lived with

eral weeks before the murder in
the yard of a home where mask
ed burglar had been surprised
climbing through a window.
Engagements Of the photo
graph showed Spencer's sister
and another relative.
Detectives surrounded the
Spencer home, and arrested him.
Thousands of dollars worth of
jewelry was found in the house.
This was identified by various
citizens of Springfield whose
homes had been robbed.
After the arrest, Spencer told
remarkable story to the police. He
admitted, say the police, scores of
crimes of the blacklist nature. and
pleaded with tears in his eyes,
that he was the victim of dual
personality. ,e-sr 49,
He said that day he was a nor:
NAL, law-abiding citizen; but that
with the coming of night, his evil
passions rose to the surface, and
he was unable to control himself
That was over a year ago.
Spencer was sent to the state asy-
lum for the insane at Bridgewater
for observation. He has been
there ever since, but the result of
the conclusions reached by the ex-
perts is being kept secret by the
police.
The police say they have a
signed confession to the murder
of Miss Blackstone in their hands.

Although his budget allowance was
reduced only SEQ from n total Of $4,000

have been in the service OF the city for
a long term of years.
This action on the part OF President
Steers has brought forth a sharp letter
from Comptroller ~Prendersast. who has
recently received many letters from
Brooklyn residents and others complain
ing Of the action OF the Borough
President.
The Comptroller's letter forwarded to
Borough President Steers te-day IL as
follows:
NNiiltu ~ 'N''tEf ~ -.
Borough of Brooklyn:
My Dear Mr.. Steers-During the
last few days L have been In receipt
OF a number of letters from Brook
Ign people complaining of the dis
charge OF scrubwomen In tho Brook
iyn Department OF Public Buildings.
The writer's Of these letters all seem
10 think that ! am responsible for
the discharge OF these women l
have no more control over than than
have over you
II 10 a fact that as a member of
the Board OF Estimate I pass upon
appropriations. So do you. The
Budgetary Committee CAV n hearing
upon the estimates presented by vol
department and decided that tho De-
partment of Buildings could be main
talned for less money tina you were
asking for. The committees position
was that not one dollar more should
be appropriated for this purpose than
the actual necessities Of the work re-
CURED. Consequently when the COM
mittee submitted Its recommends
lions TO the Boar OF Estimate the
appropriation asked for by you was
reduced. The reduced estimates were
then passed upon by the entire
board, every member. including your
self, voting for them. The distribu-
ton OF the amount allowed for the
cleaning of public buildings In
Brooklyn is within your discretion
entirely. II Is your administra tive
problem and nobody else's. Yours
very truly.
