It in Chief Coimplrntor In
Crime of MerollrKU
1 I'lnnnliiK.
NEW YORK, April 2. Without the
Brightest rjuhver In his well modulated voice
and displaying no outwaid sign of regret
or 'remorse Charles F. Jones, secretary and
valet to the lato William Marsh Itlce, today
confessed under oath that he had ended the
life1 of hlH employer and bcuefnetor with
chloroform.
The confession was the climax of a ro
markablo recital In which was laid bare the
details of nn nlleged subtle conspiracy
which had for l(s object the seizure of
$.1,000,000 In cash and negotlablo securities
nnd 'the conversion of $3,000,000 In realty
to the uses of the alleged chief consplrntor.
The. .capltnl crime he committed and nil
tho minor offenses that preceded It were,
he declared, at the Instigation and direc
tion of 'Albert T. Patrick. It was Patrick,
ho said, who conceived the Idea of forging
a will and forging transfers and convey
ances. It was Patrick who Induced two
persons to witness the forged signature.
It was Pntrlck who determined that Itlce
should die and It was Patrick who Fought to
havo him killed slowly and then, becoming
Impatient, determined upon quick action.
And, nceordlng to Jones, rcraarknblc as It
ay seem, Klce never knew Patrick during
li lifetime and never saw him but once.
Jones, according to hlB story, first began
flls acquaintance 'with Patrick when the
kwycr. called at the residence of Million
aire Itlce 'on Madison nvenue. this city, In
October, ISO!). The witness told of tho
growing friendship and tho gradual ap
proach to the discussion of the affairs of
Mr. Ttirc, which finally resulted In tho
proposition to defraud and Jones finally
yielded. Then camo the details of the atory
of tho trnnsfers and conveyances of real
nnd personal property to Pntrlck, over tho
forged signatures of Itlce; the stealing of
blank checks from tho millionaire's check
book; their delivery to Patrick and the
forging of Itlce's signature' the proposi
tion to put tho aged millionaire out of the
way, first weakening him by continuous
doses of mercury; the calling In of n physi
cian at frequent Intervals, thus apparently
providing for tho Issuance of a death cer
tificate, and tho extreme enro with which
this plan of slow poisoning wns carried oih.
Trlln o the Murder.
Then, as calmly as though unfolding the
plot of a dTnma In which he was Interested
only 'as n spectator, Jones led up to the
day of tho murder.
)fo swore that Patrick had furnished him
with mercury pills of a different compo
sition from thoso first administered; told
how tho mllllonulro defeated tho purpose
of tho plotters by refusing to take them.
Then, Jones "said, Pntrlck began to dis
play Impatience. Ho swore the lawyer
brought two ounces of oxalic neld to
Jones and Jones swears ho told him to
diluto one qunco In twenty-two times its
weight In water nnd to give the mixture to
Rice for tho purposo of weakening his
henrt action. To Induce the old man to
tako these several poisons, Jones snld ho
.was compelled to tako doses himself In
Sice's .presence, Ono doso was really not
dangerbu. It wns tho cumulntlvo effect of
ho drug that was tp be feared.
- According to his confession tho oxalic
,ncld wns too slow and Junes was asked to
dsn chloroform nnd Jaudanum. Jones said
,ho waB uf;ald to buy tho drugs In. tho
'.neighborhood and ho sent to his brother
In Texas for thorn. They enmo by ix
,press. This wns followed by a meeting In
the street with Patrick, who told him tint

Jones described his return to Mr. Illcc's
apartments and the discovery of tho mil
lionaire sleeping peacefully In bed; he told
of his stealthy search for n napkin, nnd
the fashioning of it into n eono-shapo, an
directed, ho said, by Patrick. He detailed
the story of the pinning of n small sponge
at the point of the cone. Then he told of
saturating tho nnpkln nnd sponge with
chloroform and holding It to his own nos
trlls to test Its effect.
Jones looked straight Into the oyc of
Assistant District Attorney Osborne and
continued his atory without a break, with
out a tremor In ills voice. He described his
nppronch to tho bed with the saturnted nap
kin in his hand, of placing It over the face
of the sleeping old man, of the flight from
the room, of the weary valt of thirty mln
utes lu nccordanco with Patrick's alleged
Instructions.
At tho expiration of the linlf hour he re
turned and found Klce dead. Ho then
threw open tho windows to frco the room
from tho odor of chloroform, telephoned to
Patrick that Klce was dead, sent for a phy
sician and after expressing his grief nt the
Iobb of ho good nnd kind nn'empldycr he
said ho went to bed nnd fell Into a sound
sleep.
Patrick, accused by thc'wltness of being
the arch criminal, listened to the witness
with rttentlon nnd occasionally made notes
Not even the remarkable witness on tho
stnnd wns more cool, calm nnd collected
than this remnrkablo prisoner. Patrick's
hand was steady and firm. He displayed
neither anger, fear nor resentment.

I of them being fatal. Tho number of cases

Tho six eases and deaths In February
wero reported by 11 special commission ap
pointed by the secretary of the trensury
to examine Into tho plague situation in

of Prof. Simon Flexncr of tho University

Novy of tho University of Mlchlgnn. and
Prof. L. S. Barker of tho University of
Chicago, recorder. Continuing, the
statement says:
"Plague has been reported In Snn Frnn
claco officially In the public health re
ports slnco March 6, 1900, thirty-two cases
(all fatal) having been reported and pub
lished in previous numbers of tho public
health reports, and tho, facts were re
ported in tho last annual report to con
gress of the decretory of the treasury.
"While tho correctness of the diagnosis
has never been doubted by tho bureau or
department, It was deemed advlsablo to
summon the Independent board ot ex
perts, The results of tin Ir Investigation, as
outlined above, were Immediately com
municated by them to tho governor of
California nnd the mayor and representa
tives of tho business interests of SHn

Subsequent telegrams show that tho work

"Tho disease hiiR been confined nlmost
exclusively to tho Chinese, nnd an ex

there has been no timo during that period
when It has Increased to such an extent as
to In Itself cause alarm.
"Tho prevailing type so far n known
is of the bubonic form, which, nceordlng
to M. do Ilrun, is of n mildly contagious
character, but It is undetermined how sodii
thoso cases mny give rise to enscs of n
graver nnd moro contagious form of tho
disease, which emphasizes the necessity of
prompt and thorough measure to eradl
