detectives and Detective Edward Kelly
of the Metropolitan Police Force of the
murder of the boy whose body was
picked up near Pier 90 in Philadelphia

boy near the State street ferry, ana
that he choked him to death.
The confession, the Philadelphia de-
tectives told Detective Kelly, checks in
every detail The body was found
wrapped in two blankets together with
parts of radio set.
Panzram last night wrote letter to
the prosecuting attorney at Salem,
Mass, making a detailed confession Of
the murder of boy there. Massa-
chusetts detectives came to Washington
yesterday but the prisoner refused to
talk to them. In the letter to the
prosecuting attorney, he said that he
would tell no more except in open court.
He had met the Salem boy, he said,
while he was going to store, had
taken him to a clump of woods near
the city and beaten him over the head
with rock until he was dead.
