BOY STRANGER
HICKEY MAKES
CONFESSION
Gives Shocking Details of Many
Grimes
MANIA is DUE TO DRINK
Man Is intelligent and Is Apparently
Normal Except When Under In
fiuence of Alcohol.

Buffalo, N. Y. Nov. 29.-The aoci-
dental killing of man in Lowell,
Mass. 20 years ago was given to
night by John Frank Hickey in q
signed confession as the starting
point of career of debauchery and
crime that covered a period of 20
year during which he murdered two
Hickey's victims, according to his
confession, were Ed. Morey of Low
ell, Mass, poisoned with laudunum
over 20 years ago; Michael Kruck, II
years old. New York newsboy,
strangled in Central park in 1902,
and Joseph Josephs, seven years old,
the son of George Josephs, mer-
chant of Lackawanna, killed in
similar manner October u, 1911.
THE details of Hickey's last two
crimes are too revolving to make pub
iic," said District Attorney Dudley
Hickey apparently is a man with a
dual personality. He is intelligent
He is now overcome with remorse
and says again and again that he
can't comprehend what possessed
him to commit the crimes. He as
serts that he became a maniac only
when filed with whiskey."
Hickey said repeatedly during his
confession that all his crimes were
committed while he was drunk. So
Der, thought of crime never entered
his mind. But when he became in
toxicated there came over him an
Unsuitable desire to kill small boys.
The tortures Of his victims, as relat-
ed in the confession, were firightful.
After signing his confession, Hlck-
ey said he was glad his life of
~crime was at an end.
Il have made my peace with God"
he said. Il am ready to pay the pen
atty for my crimes demanded by
man."
District Attorney Dudley said that
Hickey's confession came from his
lips without much persuasion.
There was no grilling examina-
ton nor resort to the so-called third
degree" he said. Hickey became
quite confidential with me and at
times would tell me bits of his life.
1t was on the train that l remarked
about different points of evidence we
had against him. This seemed to
worry him considerably. / told him
that he could not expect anything
from me and that anything said
would be used against him.
Finally, he launched into a detail
ed history of his life. He said that
when he was boy in Lowell, his
birthplace, something happened to
him that he never forgot. He then
related the accidental killing or the
man Morey. This he said was fol-
lowed by periods Of remorse that he
sought to obliterate from his mind
with drink. Bit by bit the stories OF
the other crimes came out, until he
finally broke down completely and
btween sobs told me how he murder
ed the Joseph and Kruck boys"

RAILROAD WRECKS
LARGELY DUE TO
SPEED MANIA
Poor Rails and Negligence Are
Also Responsible.
CONDITIONS ARE DEPLORABLE
Companies Should Be Compelled to
Observe Interstate Commerce
Commissions Regulations.

Washington, Nov. 29.-Interstate
Commerce Commissioner Clark in a
statement issued today In connection
with the numerous wrecks on rail-
roads in the United States said that
in his opinion conditions are deplor-
able
Most of the wrecks,"G he said,
may be put in class of unavoidable
accidents. Poor rails. the speed
craze and human negligence are the
causes"
Mr.. Clark pointed out that the com
mission is powerless to prescribe ade
quate regulations to prevent wrecks
and that while its recommendations
have been generally observed they
cannot be enforced, He minated
that Congress should give the COM
mission more power to compel rail-
roads to observe the safety rules
which are deemed necessary after
the commissions many investiga-
tions. Commissioner Clark said in
part:
Demands from the public and the
railroads for high speed are another
fruitful cause of wrecks. At the
present time many trains are keyed
up TO their highest speed, with the
maximum strain upon rails, engines.
equipment and the men themselves.
When even a slight defect occurs in
any of these equipments something
has got to snap. A terrible wreck
is the result.
But the human equation is a
cause OF wrecks-lapses of memory
of train employees. ! don't see how
we can change this, as il has always
existed, unless we put two men 10
insure obedience OF orders to one
man. A conductor forgets an order,
an engineer runs by plainly set
signal, brakeman forgets to close
switch. These are human flaws.
Some because of gross negligence
may be preventable but others are
simply unavoidable except as hui
man frailties--a defect of the human
machine.
1T may be that there are no more
wrecks now than there have been
in the past, considering the number
of trains run and the traffic, but
there is more public attention given
to rail catastrophes. This publicity
] believe is the best modern safe
guard of travel"

London, Nov. 30-Constantinople
reports the probability of a fort

The news received yesterday of
the surrender of two entire divisions
of Turkish reserves to the Bulgar-

a short distance south of Adrianople,
after severe fighting, shows there are
still large isolated bodies of Turkish
troops unaccounted for and which
must be considered in arranging an

numbers of men aboard Greek trans

allied army at Tchatalja. No news
has been received concerning these
transports as yet and the disposal of
the men they carry, in the event an
armistice is arranged, would present
some difficulty.
Although it is not yet safe to as

the fact that the negotiations con-
tinue at Baghtche and that apparent

toward the belief that a peaceful So

JURY FINDS HYDE
TO Be GUILTY OF
BRIBERY
Charged With Illegally Using
Power of His Position
JUSTICES BROAD CHARGE
Defendant to Be Adjudged Guilty II
He Received Anything to In
fIuence His Action.

New York. Nov. 30.-Charles H.
HYDE. former city chamberlain, was
found guilty last night of bribery In
connection with the performance OF
his duties as city official. The
Jury which has been hearing his case
in the supreme court rendered its
verdict Just before midnight after
nearly 81 hours elaboration. The
case was given to the jury at sos
o'clock last night at the close OF a
two-hour charge by Supreme Court
Justice Golf. Half an hour later the
iurymen wept to dinner, resuming
their deliberations as soon as their
meal was finished.
+ Hyde is accused, in the words OF
states counsel to the jury, of using
"the power and the pressure of his
official position, unlawfully to in
duce" Joseph G. Robin. head of the
now defunct Northern bank, to cause
the bank to loan the tottering Car
negie trust company $4,000. Coun-
sci for state and for defense spent
the final day OIL the trial in summing
up. Max D. Steuer for Hyde took up
the morning session and Assistant
District Attorney Moss for the prose
cution the afternoon session.
Justice Goff in his charge to the
jury said. The meat of the charge
is, Did the defendant receive some
thing by which his course of action
was influenced If he did, then he
is guilty of the charge of bribery
If there was any consideration
whatsoever--even If it was of no in,
trinsic value-the position is the
same 1t is not necessary that il
be given him; the giving to a friend
is the same. If Hyde threatened to
withdraw deposits from the Northern
bank, charged the court, he should
be found guilty"

SOUSA IN IRELAND
His Band Has No Rival In the
Emerald Isle.

emerald Isle.
The necessity no longer exists for
telling everybody of the merits of
Sousa's Band, of its uneQualled ex-
cellence. of the wonderful per-
sonality of John Philip Sousa, whose
great achievements in music are
known throughout the world What
we do want to know 1t when Sousa
and his band will be here, and it is
settled now that they will appear at
the local opera house on Saturday
Dec. Z. We also like to hear the OPP
inions of others, from different parts
of the world, regarding Sousa,
whom we know so well. Here is
en- from the Dublin Express:
when Sousa first came to Ireland,
some years ago, many persons
thought that the enthusiasm which
he evoked would not long survive
and that the man land his methods
would so to speak be soon played
out. These croakers have been mis-
taken. They did not understand
what a power Sousa is, and what
control he Yields over his band He
has had many imitators since he
first crossed the Atlantic and land
ed on this side, but he has no rival
and certainly no one has yet sur
passed him. That Dublin people still
retain a deep interest in Sousa was
amply demonstrated yesterday by
the huge crowds gathered to hear
the band"
