WANDERER ADMITS Wants to Die Now—One Victim May Be Rhode Island Man | chicago, July 12.—The identity of ‘ the unkempt “man of mystery” killed by Carl Wanderer when be staged his sham hold-up for the purpose of murdering his wife has taken another aspect. The police are almost cer- tain he is John J. Maloney of River Point, R. L Maloney was employed as a can- vasman for the John Robinson Cir- cus. He left when the show entered Canada a week before the Wanderer tragedy. In the pocket of the dead man was found a food card marked ‘E. Master,” which proved to be that of Earl Masters, a foreman with the circus. He identified a picture of Wanderer's dupe as that of Ma- loney. Masters had given Malone: a coat and it Is possible the card w in the pocket of the garment. The circus records showed Ma- loney’s nearest relative was a sister in River Pojnt, R. L. She proved to be a Mrs. John Kain. She described her brother, and the description agrees with the appearance of the dead man. Mrs. Kain had not seen her brother for six months. He had no trade or knowledge of business, and she believes he would have ac- cepted circus work. Wanderer Wanted Money. This afternoon Wanderer, in a two-hour conversation with reporters, told of his prayers. He talked calm- Iy of his wife as though she were alive and well. He showed no emo- tion. Ho advised young men to tell the truth, not because of the prin- ciple involved, but because they would get caught in something if they led. An example of his logic was con- tained in his bland statement that the $1.500, one of the motives for tho sham hold-up, was his own money earned by him and saved by him. He “didn’t know"” why it was neces- sary to slay two to galn possession of It. A portion of the dialogue be- tween the slayer and a reporter fol- lows: “How did you spend the morning?" “I prayed and I feel much re- leved.” “Whom did you pray for?" “Mywalf and my wife. I prayed for her and the baby—you know—the baby.” (He referred to the unborn child). “Do you believe in God?" “Sure, I've always gone church— ' the Messiah Lutheran chusch, Grace | ;nd School streets. Used to go with er." | "“Do you think He will forgive your sins 2" “Sure, Doesn't the Bible say so? I've tolé everything, haven't I? The police said my soul would stay in hell for 200 years unless I confessed.” “Ready to Hang Ni “Are you ready to die “4ny time. I'm not afraid. ready to hang now." “Do you think you are sane?" “Sane? Certainly I'm sane. I know what T am talking about as well as you do." “Well. then, how did you happen to commit such a crime? “I don’t know, it just came over me. The idea just happened to come. 1 wanted to get into the army again. I wanted the money. I was saving to go into business. 1 don't like being a butcher. In the army I could save. I was careful with my money. I didn't rmoke, chew, drink or run around with women, but I did crave money. It was my money, every cent of it. I worked for It and put it In the bank.' “Why didn't you just take it out and le your wife rather than kill her “I ‘don’t know. The idea just came over me to kill' her. Somdhow the tone of Ruth's voice when she told me, ‘Carl, I'm shot, I think I'm dy- ing,' keeps coming back to me again and again. Memories are strange things, aren’'t they? [ guess perhaps it was best that the police got me and made me confess. Otherwise the voice of Ruth and Ruth's face might have kept coming back, and sooner or later I might have gone mad I'm Third Reader Was Right. “I haven't got much of an imagin- ation—rather cold-blooded, I guess— but there are some things—well, it 1 had my wish I'd swing tonight “There’s one thing I'd like to say before I do. There was a time when 1 used to laugh at the old third read- er stuff about honesty being the best policy, and the straight and narrow stuff. But it's the only way, at that. 1 guess people llke me come along to warn the rest.” “What is it you wish most of " he was asked “Most of all I'd like a Bible.

I loved the child that was never born. We always had talked about it. .I wanted it to be a girl. Ruth wanted it :a be a boy. We used to spend hours and hours talking about what school the child would go to. “I was never in trouble before and never broke a law that I know of. After the shooting. I knew they would get me in the end, but not for a long time. One moral is, don't lie. A thousand times I've thought of one scene that will stay with me to the very last moment of my life. That is the scene when they buried Ruth, three days after 1 killed her. I stood at the side of the grave at Graceland when they lowered the casket. It was after the service, with the flow- ers and the tears. Then I knew you just because the heart has stopped beating.' The. police were delving info' the slayer’s past, half expecting to find that the murder of his wife and the “ragged stranger” was not his first crime of the kind. They tried ta con- nect him with the robbing of his father’'s butcher shop in December, but failed. Likewise they were balked in their attempts to show that he might have been responsible for the death of his mother, who com- mitted suicide several years ago. Accarding to is statements, he joined the army in 1912 at Columbus, O., and was sent to Fort Meade, S. D., where he served until 1914, when he was sent to Vera Cruz. His dis- charg® came at Texas City, Tex.. in 1915. Two years later, when this country had entered the war, he Joined the army again at Jefferson Barracks, Mo., to be transferred to Chickamauga Park, Ga. He became attached to Company B, 17th Machine Gun Battalion, 6th division. He was promoted to a second lieutepancy shortly before his unit returned. FORTY EIGHTERS ARE BECKONING TO LABOR (Continued From First Page.) announced that it will bolt the pro- posed combine rather than stand for La Fallette while another faction has declared it will accept the nominee so long as a Single Tax plank is in- corporated in the platform. If Senator La Follette wants the third party nomination he ean have it, obth forty-eighters and laborite agree. He is already the overwhelm- ing choice of the forty-eighters, a mail referendum has shown. While other candidates will be placed in nomination in the labor convention and probably the forty-eight meeting the senator's friends say both groups are ready to nominate him. Frank P. Walsh, Charles H. Inger- soll and Henry Ford have been men- tioned for the nomination, but there is no apparent concerted action to fur- | ehanged to the New ther the prospects of any one of them. Walso also is being discussed for the vice-presidency. Yesterday was given over opening session of the labor conven- tion with delegates from 60 trade unions and other groups represented. The forty-eighters and single-taxers, whose convention opened Saturday, bad recessed for the day and prac- tically their entire membership at- tended the labor convention, many participated as acting delegates. Prom- inent among those assuming a dual delegate role was James Duncan, one of the leaders of the general strike in Seattle last year. On Satur- day he was elected chairman of the Washington delegation to the conven- tion of the Committee of 48 and yes- terday was chosen vicechairman of the labor convention. ‘White radical groups who, accord- ing to Swinburne Hale, one of their leaders, were in the minority in the 48 convention Saturday were in the ascendancy yesterday and vigorously applauded when their leaders prayed for the day when the workers - of America would follow the example set by the workers of Russia. Every reference to Russia and to Ireland, too, was applauded and when John Fitzpatrick, the labor keynoter, praised the Russian revolution three cheers for soviet Russia were given. Committees in conference over the amalgamation proposals found the se- lection of a name for their new po- litical party to be a problem. Combi- nations upon the word “labor” were in disfavor among the Committee of 4%, but “American party” was pre- sented by several spokesmen. ‘The Union Part was likewise offered, but no decision was reached. Amalgamation efforts wére carried further today under the direction of the Committee of 48. A sub-commit- tee headed by Mrs. Ina P. Williams of ‘Washingtan state, carried imvitations to representatives of the Non-pattisan League, the Single T: convention, the World War Veterans' association and the American Constitutional party that delegates attend the Committee of 48 convention. All, it was said, agree to go that far, on the under- standing that they were not found to remain in the sessions or support the decisions. The “former-labor party” was among the names suggested for the organization. CHANGES ITS NAME. New Britain Lumber and Coal Com- pany Drops “Coal” From Its Title.

The convention is an annual affair which is awaited with interest in the state and this year plans are under way to make it the best ever held. The committee in chrge of ar- rangements are going ahead on prep- arations which call for a mammoth display of taalent along musical lines. Invitations have been sent out to 95 corps- im this state, Rhode Island, New York and Massachusets. Early replies have been asked from each corps. All the invitations will not be | accepted but the local men feel that of those sent out a majority will re- | ply favorably and assure the conven- | tion’s success. : Drum corps have been favored by many persons for years and the gathering in this city should bring forth some of the best fifers and drummers in these parts. . Connecti- | cut men have many times . taken prizes in competition and the corps from other states are also keen in : rivalry. The plans for the affair mean the expenditure of a large sum of money on the part of the Y. M. T. A. & B. | society but results of such an affair would justify the committee in goln&' to such expense. A parade in which | all the corps would take part would be the public feature while the athle- tic events and competitive inter-corps events at St. Mary’s field in the after- noon would be the interest to pri- vate individuals. | Open house will be maintained at ' the Tabs' home on Lafayette street ! | for two days and on Friday night a ' j reception and dance wiil be given the | | out of town corpsmen in Bardeck’s | hall. Hotel accommodations in the , City are very poor and the commit- i tee has a difficult task before it to as- sure visiting corps members of suit- able quarters. General co-operation upon the part of the city is expected because the event will mean much to Ithe city and public at large. The features of the parade and the competitions are set forth in letters sent out by the committee on prepa- rations. They are as follows: Handsome Prizes.
