Oct. 14. 4 The two boys, James Hawkins and Harry Howard, who yester- day accused ltlclinrd Holmberg of murdering the Hill family, near Portland,' In June, practl- cally admitted today that they faked up the story with a view of getting the reward. Tle. boys art being held at the conn- ty jail and it may be possible that they will be (lven a Bevere sentence on the rock pile. Holm- berg will probably be released sometime this afternoon. PORTLAND, Oct. 14. Accompan ied by live investigators James Haw kins, aged and Harry Howard, lged 17, yesterday led the way from t'otiiand to the deserted home of the William II. Hill family, a mile south )f Artlenwald and explained In de tail how August Richard Holmberg, who was arrested Wednesday at The Dalles, entered the Hill bouse be tween 2 and 4 a. in. on the morning if June 9 and, they said, murdered Mr. and Mrs. Hill and their two children. The boys guided the Investigators for more than three hours pointing out the places where they stopped while on the way to the scene of the crime and conlirmed In practically 'very detail the story of Holmberg's alleged connection with the crime as related yesterday morning before the trip was made to Ardeuwald. The boys, both hobos, were brought to the city yesterday with Holmberg from The Dalles and were subjected to severe questioning at the county jalL They met Holmberg May 21 near a rooming house on Front street and enjoyed his hospi tality to the extent of a meal In a cheap restaurant. They said Holm berg had persuaded them to attempt robbery In Portland and that they had refused for fear of being caught. Then, they said, he suggested that they go into the country far from vhere there was any police protec tion. They consented to this and vent with Holmberg to Ardenwald, they said and stood outside the Hill home while Holmberg went Inside supposedly for the purpose of rob hery. They declared they beard scream ing in the house and a commotion, hut were too frightened to Investi gate or run from the scene until Holmberg came out half an hour lat er smeared with blood and told them he had a big light and for them to run for their lives. They then related that they ran from the scene, solng east on the county road, all the rest of the night and all tho next day, until they reached tho Sandy river, near Troutdale, where they camped for ten days and during which time Holmberg, they said, held them In his power by vicious threats. The Investigators with the two boys entered an automobile yester day afternoon at 1 : 4 B o'clock and rode to Ardenwald. The boys were told to point out the course they had taken and the house where they mid Holmberg had taken them to commit robbery. The youths started south, appar ently at sea regarding their where abouts. They wandered about for some time before coming to the rountv road, which they snld they recognized as the thoroughfare they traversed the night or the murder. Thev followed this road for a con siderable distance beyond the Hill house, not recognizing the little shark as they passed. They soon felt, however, that they had gone too fnr and they retraced their steps to the Hill house, which they de clared was the place. No Imtlmatlon had been given by the Investigators that the shack was the house of death, the boys pointing It out tnom selves. They scrambled down over a pile of wood which they said was there the night Holmberg led (them to the scene. They declared they had stood on the pile and argued about who would go into the house to com mit the robbery. The boys said they were badly frightened and both re fused to enter and declared Holmberg decided to go himself. They said thev followed him to the back of the bouse and waited wbll" Holm berg went around to the front to gain entrance. Young Hawkins said he leaned against a pole in the back yard and Howard said he stood near the wlu- Special Attention Given io Order Work NKW YOIIK WINS. NEW YORK CITY, Oct. 14. In the first game of the world's series played here today, New York won by a score of" 2 to 1. So eager were persons to wit- ness the opening game of the series that hundreds of people crowded before the ticket win- dowa prior to midnight. When the gates oiened 10,000 people were lined In front, and It was only with the greatest dltflcul- ty that the "fans" were admit- ted without accident. When the last ticket was sold 5,000 people were still assembled on the outside of the grounds t unable to gain admittance. Other than the crowd within the grounds It is estimated that over 6.000 people witnessed the game from housetops, telephone poles and other places of van- tage. The Score.

(low, V'litch was slightly open and Inside of which was Mrs. Hill and the to children asleep. As the hoys stood yesterday In the places they said they had occupied while the murder was committed, they declared there was absolutely no doubt about their story. They said It was some time after Holm berg left them in wnitlng at the rear of the house before they heard any commotion., The first they heard, they declared,-was a heart-rending scream which frightened them so badly neither could speak or move. They heard creaking of feet. They said, as near as they could tell, Holm berg was lu the house half an hour. The next seen of Holmberg, they said, was when he dashed wildly from the house and said In an ex cited voice, "Run as fast as you ean." They said they ran and as they proceeded down tho county road, Holmberg told them he had had an uwfu! fight but had been successful in getting $L'5 In money. Holmberg's clothes, the boys Bald, were splattered with blood and his hands were a gruesome crimson. From the scene of the murder the boys said they hurried all that niori Ing and all the next day down the road until they reached the Sandy river, where they went into camp and where Holmberg. they recited, at tempted to wash the blood from his clothes. He was unsuccessful, they said, and exchanged clothes and wrapped the bloody suit in a bundle ho carried, declaring that the blood stained suit was too good to throw away, The boys say they first susiwcted Holmberg of murder about five days 'ifter tho Hill crime. Hawkins said he was sent to Troutdale for supplies, while Howard was held lu enmp and threatened with death by Holmberg If Hawkins did not return within an hour At Troutdale Hawkins said he heard talk of four persons having been murdered In the night near Ar denwald. and, he BUSeeted Holm berg. Upon returning to the camp the first question he asked was whether Holmberg had murdered anybody when he was in tho house. This so Infuriated Holmberg. declared the youths, that he threatened both hoys with death if they mentioned It again He told them repeatedly that he would kill them on sight If either tried to leave hiin or tried to tell that he was the person guilty of the Hill murder. He did not allow them to see newspapers and always kept at least one of the boys close to him night and day. They boys Bay ho Is a pervert of the worst type.
