YOUTH CONFESSES
TO THE MURDER Of
HIS OWN FATHER
HillsbOrO Boy Breaks Down Under
Grilling and Admits He Fired
Shots Which Killed
Father.

Dayton, Ohio, June 90. - Russell r.
Gotherman, % years old, confessed
last night, police say, that on Decem-
ber 1 of last year he murdered James
Gotherman, his father, sc years old, of
Hillboro, Ohio, wealthy farmer.
On the day of the murder young
Gotherman left his home in company
with his father, who was planning to
visit relatives in Illinois. Time passed
and no word came from the father. In
quiry of the Illinois relatives disclosed
that he never had reached his destina-
ton. In the search that followed the
youth who is said to have confessed
Tuesday night, took an active part.
Detectives from Cincinnati and other
cities were employed at his request.
Finally remote clues were estab-
lished and after weeks of futile in
vestigation, suspicion began to be di-
rected toward the young man, who in
the meantime had come to Dayton.
Word was sent to authorities here to
apprehend Gotherman.
When accused of the crime the
young man at first denied his guilt,
but when confronted with details, po-
lice assert, yielded and recited the
various steps leading up to the murder
On March l, three months after the
elder Gotherman left his home to go
to Illinois, his body was found in
shed near Hillsboro. Two bullet holes
were found in the head. A revolver
was found in the dead mans hand
Young Gotherman, it is said, admitted
having placed it there.
Young Gotherman stated, police de-
clare that he and his father had an ar
gument on the morning the father was
to have gone to Illinois 1t was as a
result of this alteration, he said, that
he killed his father. The youth was
taken back to Hillsboro Tuesday night,
where he will be charged with mur-
der and face a preliminary trial today.
