MURDERED EIGHT
Prisoner Claims Guilt Charged
to Executed Men.
Truth of Statements Not Given
Full Credence.

Los Angeles. July 7.-Simon P
Helf1nstlne, who is in Jail charged
with minor crime, startled officials
of the sheriff's office with a purport-
ed confession in which he detailed a
series of eight alleged murders in
OHIO. These include the Staying of
Pearl Bryan, for whose death the
medical students Jackson and Wall
ing, were executed. Some of the cir
cumstances of the crime as related by
nlns DO not coincide with known facts,
and county officials We're inclined to
DeileVe the prisoner was suffering
from the peculiar phase of insanity
often noted in police work. which
causes the victim to imagine he COM
united the crimes of which he has
only read. Nevertheless. Assistant
District Attorney w. Joseph Ford got
into communication today with the po-
nee department of several Ohio cities
Helf1nstine said he started his ca
reer of murder in 1896 with. the kill
ing of farmer named Dedricke and
MS wife and the stealing of $4,000
which they had hidden away In 1908
the prisoner said, he killed two far
mers named Fletcher and Butler at
kenten Pike, Ohio, and then came
west. Pearl Bryan was supposed to
have been killed in Cincinnati but
Helfinstine asserts that he murdered
the girl in Toledo and then shiuped
the body to Jackson and Walling. in
Cincinnati

20 cents and was given 20 papers.
Tin goin' to sell en- he said.
Smith was rather slender, slightly
stopped, with hair of grey and d Pc
culiar manner of speech. He read the
headlines on the front page of the
State Journal that evening and repeat
ed their contents to pedestrians pass
ing the street railway transfer terminal
at Eighth and Kansas avenue.
In five minutes Charlie came back
and bought 20 more papers.
From that day until shortly before

ter stood at 100 above zero or whether
the bitter north wind carried its 10

the senate lobby committee today, ad-
mitted he had approached Lewis Cas-
Ledyard of counsel for j. P. Morgan

Speaker Clark and Senator Stone, but
had done SO at the direction of David

create good feeling then and there,
between Morgan and Lamar" said
Lauterbach. Senator Reed examined the
witness closely as to his motive in hur-

pounding the arm of his chair with his
clinched fist. THAT insinuation is an
insult and an outrage. 1 thought that

down and without any exchange of

Lauterbach testified Morgan had re-
ferred him to Charles Steele, that
Steele had put him off a few days and
then said "he did not care to have any,
