Boy Who Slew Hull
Tries to Kill Self
In Cell by Hanging g
O'Brien Discovered Just in
Time by Turnkey, With
Moose eAbout Neck ;Mother
Faints on Seeing Him

Edward O'Brien, the seventeen-year-
old boy indicted for the murder of Gar
diner c. Hull, his employer, last Friday.
attempted to hang himself in cell at
the Freehold, N. j., Jail yesterday.
O'Brien had torn a long strip from
his blanket and, forming moose at one
end, had placed it around his neck. He
was discovered by the turnkey waiting
for an opportunity to fasten the other
end of the stri p to the top of the cell
door and jump from a cot upon which
he was standing.
The turnkey Immediately removed
from the room everything with which
they boy might be able to injure him.
self, and guard was stationed in his
cell to watch him for the rest of the
morning. Later in the day he was re-
moved to the witness room Of the Jail,
where an attendant will be constantly
with him.
When Assistant District Attorney
John F. Joyce was informed of the &C.
currence he requested the Freehold
authorities to take every precaution
with the boy.
Mother Visits the Boy
During the afternoon Mrs. Theresa
O'Brien, the boys mother, and his Sis
ter, Mrs. Alice Bossardet, of Brook
lyn, visited him in Jail for the first
time since the crime. When he ad
mitted to them that he struck the fatal
hammer blows Mrs. O'Brien tainted.
After being revived she remained with
her son for half an hour.
On entering the room Mrs. O'Bricn,
with tears running down her cheeks,
embraced and kissed the boy.
Eddie" she sobbed, "tell me the
truth. Wasn't it the Paige boy who
struck the blows that killed Mr.. Hull ?"
NO" he replied, "but he did hold
him while hit him"
Here for the first time tears rose
to the boys eyes and he moved away
toward a window. His mother sank
to the floor.
Mrs. O'Brien afterward urged her
son not to talk any more and promised
him she would stick by him and do
everything possible for him.
Mr.. Joyce said he would not ask for
the appointment of a commission in
lunacy to determine whether the two
boys are mentally responsible.
I'VE will proceed as in any other
murder case he said. Probably
Paige and O'Brien did not deliberately
intend to XIII Hull, but under the law
they are just as responsible as if they
had set out with the idea of killing
him. They certainly delberated on
the robbery and planped it carefully"
Boys Demeanor Changes
O'Brien, when seen by reporter for
The Tribune Yesterday was not the
same boy who had for the last three
days been boastfully regalng his fell
low wprisoners with the lurid details Of
the crime.
do you feel different about the at
fair now?" was asked.
With closed eyes he nodded yes. His
lips twitched little and then he said:

ALASKA GAMERS
TO MAKE EFFORT
TO. BETTER PACK

Recent arrivals from the Alaska
coast are authority for the statement
that a movement has been started
by the leading cannerymen to raise
the standard of the Alaska pack, so
as to place the fishing industry on
solid footing. The Gamers have
organized a branch of the National
Gamers association and now have
inspectors in the field working to-
ward a betterment of cannery con-
ditions in Alaska. William G. Her
ron, son of the owner of the An
chorage Times, only recently COM
pleted a tour of Southeastern Alas
ka in his official capacity as in
spector.
The Alaska Gamers association
includes over seventy Northern can
Fneries, and it is the plan to conduct
a thorough investigation of methods
used in canning salmon and other
fish, with view to the adoption of
"a uniform standard and the i'm
provement of conditions generally.
Due to the carelessness of certain
of the cannerymen of questionable
repute, to the practice of canning
salmon that is not fresh, and to
the use of unsanitary methods, the
reputation of all Alaska canned
salmon has suffered at times. The
inspection system inaugurated by
the association, it is believed, will
eliminate questionable methods and
.carelessness, and viii speed the in
PRODUCTION of the latest and best
methods of canning.
The National Gamers association,
of which the Alaska organization
is branch, includes the majority
of the fruit, vegetable, and fish pack
ers of the country.

MANY PLANNING
VOYAGE DOWN TO
ATTEND SERIES

According to reports received
from Fairbanks during the past sew
eral days, residents of the upper
town are displaying much interest
in the forthcoming baseball series,
scheduled to take place in Nenana
next Saturday and Sunday, and
there is reason to believe many will
accompany the Fairbanks team if
suitable travelling accommodations
can be arranged. Some say that
fully 100 Fairbanksans will make
the trip if the American-Yu Nav
igation company can be induced to
place either the Reliance or the
Tanana at the disposal of the ex-
cursionists, at a nominal round-trip
fare.
The Reliance is now on the way
up river and will reach Fairbanks
in ample time for such an excursion.
1t is not known at this time, how
ever, whether or not the company's
plans will permit of a special voy-
age to Nenana, but it is understood
that an effort is to be made to get
one of the boats. Recent arrivals
from Fairbanks declare that it is
the intention of Manager Charles
Beam to make the outing a big
affair if it is possible to do so, be-
lieving that Nenana will reciprocate
later in the summer, when the Ne
mana ball players visit Fairbanks
for return series.
Fairbanksans have much confd-
ence in the ability of their ball team
and it is promised that those who
accompany the team will come to
Nenana prepared to back their ag-
gregation heavily.
, But the visitors will not find Ne
mana unprepared. Manager Doner
expects to have his men out every
day this week for practice, and he
and every member of the team will
be ready for the series by the end
of the week, full of confidence in
the ability of the local aggregation
to win at least two of the three
games.
