BOY CHARGED WITH MURDER.
Alleged He Drove Comrade Into Deep

DEERFIELD, n. j.. Aug 17.-Mel-
vile Keen, IS years old, was arrested
and lodged in the Cumberland county
Jail yesterday afternoon on charge of
first degree murder in connection with
the death of Carlton Riley, II years
old, who was drowned in a pond on the
Seabrook farm near here last Sunday.
The warrant for young Keen 3 arrest
was sworn out by the dead boys father
and is based on story told by Carl
ton s younger brother. This boy said
that Keen lured them to the pond and
forced them to take off their clothing
and then pushed Carlton into deep
water, although he knew that the boy
could not swim. The brother said that
he pushed a log out to Carlton, but
that when Carlton tried to grab it
Keen snatched it away Carlton then
started for the shore, the younger
brother said, but young Keen pushed
him under the water and held him there
until he drowned.
Several persons who searched for the
boy s body declare that Keen led them
deliberately to the wrong spot and that
the pond had to be drained to recover
the body
