HID LONG IN DENVER THE DELINE Australian Tells of Confession of His Assailant." r November, Out WOMAN BROUGHT FOOD Curtis Said He Was Mixed Up in an Embezzlement and Had to Keep Away From the . Police. , BERKELEY, CaL, Oct 15. As a result of a long conference tonight with "William Ellis, of Australia, who lies in the hos pital with a fractured skull. Inflicted, it is alleged, by a man known as Brush, alias Curtis, and who, it Is further alleged, is Milton Franklin Andrews, accused of the murder of Bessie Bouton, near Colorado Springs, Marshal Vollmer learned that the unknown woman, who is alleged to have played a part In the scheme to end Ellis' life in Berkeley, once succeeded in keep ing Andrews hidden in Denver for two months. According to Ellis, whose additional story tonight has given the police an op portunity to trace the movements Brush and the woman ever since they loft Colo rado Springs, Brush made a confession to him October 3, when he spent the night at the house rented by the pair in Berkeley. Ellis said Andrews told him while Brush and the woman were In Den ver she went, out disguised to procure food, going about the city without fear of detection. On leaving Denver, the pair went direct ly to Vancouver, from where they took the steamer Miowera for Australia, whore they lived until departing on the Sierra, about eight weeks ago, for San Rranclsco. EiIIs accompanied them, and they made their first stop at New Zealand. From there they wont to Honolulu, finally leav ing the islands 20 days ago for San Fran cisco. While In Australia Bush, Ellis said, en tered into all manner of confidence games, and, according to Ellis, they welched on bets at the Kensington racetrack. This was their chief reason for leaving Aus tralia. In the Antipodes, Brush lived un der the name of Clayton Hill, which he told Ellis was his true name. Brush told Ellis that his reason for hiding In Denver was to escape thii police, who wanted him in connection with the embezzlement of J10.000 from a Denver firm. A young man was arrested for the theft, and Brush stated that he had se cured the money from him in a card game. It is believed by the local police -that Brush and the woman who accompanied him are located in San Francsco, and that their apprehension will be a matter of but a short time. Chief of Police Vollmer now holds to the theory that the attempt was made to murder Ellis by his friends, who were In dire straits for money. Ellis said tonight that Brush further told him that the woman he was with is a Frenoh Cahadian, whom he ilrs,t met in Mon treal, Canada. "Wore Beard Like Suspect. BOISE. Idaho, Oct. 15. A.

'Several" at tempts were made to arrest him on the supposition that he was the marf who, at Berkeley, recently committed a "mur derous assault upon an Australian horse man and robbed him of $5000. The trou ble was occasioned by the clerk In the ticket office at San Francisco. He re ported that he had sold ticket No. 2493, from San Francisco to Boise, to a man answering the description of the man wanted. On this information the officers instructed officers at various points along the road to arrest him. Burch, was called out of his stateroom at Roseburg, but soon showed the officers the description did not fit him, except that he wore a dark Vandyke beard. As the train neared Portland he was again called out This time it was Sheriff 'Word, of Multnomah County, who knew him. Word told the Portland police not to in terfere with Burch, but two plain-clothes men got aboard as the tran was entering the city and shadowed him. On the Boise branch, the conductor asked him if he had not had fun ovor ,nat, ycket and when he arrived in the hotel here, a Boise officer stepped up with the same instructions to arrest him.
