I being held here today and the

“I HAVE DONE MY PART.”
Man Confesses to a Murder Com-
mitted 19 Years Ago.
Kansas City, June 14.—Win.
Miles, age 60 years, appeared at
the police station here today and
surrendered, saying he had killed
I John Edwards, a railroad brake-
1 man, at Deer Lodge Mont., 19
years ago. Miles said that a
j man named Murphey had been
sentenced to life imprisonment
for the crime and is now serving
time in the Montana penitenti-
ary. Miles, who says he has
worked in various states in the
: west as a railroad laborer, wants
to ease his conscience. Accord-
ing to his story, Miles killed Ed-
wards in a quarrel over money.
Miles says he was borned in
Brooklyn, N. Y., and though he
still had distant relatives living
there. He said that his father,o
mother and a brother and sister
had been dead for a number of
years.
“I have at last done my part
in surrendering to the law,” he
said, “and I am not going to ask
for an investigation of the case.
If the officers wish to prosecute
it is their business. It they don’t
I am not going to go back to
Deer Lodge myself. If any one
is to blame for the killing of that
brakemandt is myself and not
Murphey. ”
