ON DEATH-BED MAN
EASES CONSCIENCE
VIM. Gray Admits Making False
Statement Relative to En-
rOllment Cases

A pathetic angle OF Gov. Osborn 8
investigation Of the alleged enroll
ment frauds came to light when
William Gray died of consumption in
the home of his aged mother, No. 2i5
Woodbridge-st. east, Monday.
Gray was one OF the men whose
names appeared on the alleged
fraudulent enrolment lists, and who
denied signing the papers.
On the eve Of the hearing before
the governor, he had serious sink
ing spell, and on his death-bed, ex
pressed the wish TO make a statement
about the case.
w. j. Werner and others heard OF
the case and investigated.
Gray was too weak to raise Ills
hands, but In the presence OF his
mother and others, said that he did
isign the enrolment which he had
later denied. He said that Burns de.
tectiyes questioned him about the
signature, and he. fearing arrest,
denied his own signature He said
that many other men In the river
front saloon, which he had frequentcd
did the same thing.
An affidavit by his mother, relating
to the death-bed statement. was an
important document placed before
the governor.
