has been my chief trouble.
Il don't know that it's such
bad kind of craziness to have at
that. Pm supposed to be an awful
desperate. Maybe I am. The
newspapers have made me out
that anyhow.
"But it makes me feel pretty
good right now to know that I
never hurt a woman in my life. "
Suddenly Webb's eyes filled
with tears. He choked down
sob and turned his head away for
a moment.
Except my little sister," he
said at last, in a low voice. "And
I didn't mean to do that. But I
know how she must feel about
this.
That was the chief thing that
T.ade me confess, thlnk-that
md the decent way Mr.. Hoyne>
treated me.
1 didn't care much for myself,
whether hanged or not, I mean.
But / knew how my sister and
brother would feelif I were hang
ed. It would pretty nearly kill
them, I guess. So weakened and
told what 1 knew.
1t was the best thing for me
to do. l didn't want to kill Hart
anyhow, but after we rolled on
the floor together I knew it was
him or me. So I killed him.

asked.
Webb smiled.
81 won't tell you" he said. ''She
might feel bad, and I wouldn't
want to have her do that"
Webb became silent again, evil
IDENTIFY thinking of the girl, for
sight of whom he had risked his
neck.
Say" he said suddenly. "You
might say for me that I was never
so awfully strong for the hold-up
game anyhow. After the loan
sharks got me and I had to have
money somehow, I started steal
ing. But I didn't go in for hold
ing people up until I was pretty
nearly forced into it. Stealing
autos and parts of autos was my
game"
Most of the band named by
Webb in his confession to Hoyne
were in this auto stealing bust
ness. The police figured today
that they got away with stuff
worth about $4,000. Webb got
about $500 out of it.
The robbers We're we'll organ
lied, according to Webb, and
they all knew where to dispose of
their loot at a moments notice.
The fences he named are being
watched today.
One of the first men arrested
today on the information given
by Webb was Rom Burke. Tom
