BOY SEALS LIPS
IN MURDER CASE
Refuses to Make Further State.
ment Concerning Murder of
Gardiner c. Hull

Silence is being maintained by Ed q.
ward Earl Paige as he sits in his cell
at Moyamensing Prison awaiting ex-
tradition to New York on the charge of
being an accomplice in the murder of
Gardiner c. Hull, business man. of
that city.
The nineteen year old boy, who con
fessed his part in the crime when he
was arrested here at a Market street
hotel several days ago. has made no
statement since that time.
When questioned by detectives at
City Hall after his arrest. Paige said
that his only share in the crime was
that he and Edward O'Brien, another
youth. who is the alleged murderer.
split the money stolen from Hull. This is
borne out by O'Brien. who is now in
detention at Freehold. n. j.. and in
his confession he says that the only
part in the murder taken by Paige was
to stand in the corner and look on.
Paige and O'Brien are supposed to
have met for the first time in Provi-
dcnce when they were confined there in
an institution for boys. Paige was com
mtted there when he was three years
old and OBrien was sent there after
being convicted of having swindled Il
man out of sum of money. They made
their escape from there together and
went to the home of O'Brien's sister at
~ -
New York. where they finally entered
the employ Of Hull. 1t is said that
the robbery was planned as far back as
October.
O'Brien. who is only seventeen years
old has lost the bravado that charac
terized the first days of his confne-
ment. and seems to be beginning to
realize his serious position. He ex-
presses regret that he should have
caused his mother this great worry.
