Confirmation of Spencer's assertion that it was he who murdered Miss An nabel Might was given to the satisfac tion of the detectives when Spencer was taken to the house where the woman was fatally beaten with a ham mer. Before entering. Spencer was re quired to describe the interior. This he did accurately and then guided the, detectives about the premises. The murderer was then taken back to the detective bureau and locked up. The Investigation will be resumed on Monday. "I am certain that Spencer killed Miss Might, and all facts, concerning the Jackson Park murder fit in hla confession." Captain Halpln said. "We will go over more of his trail of hold ups and alleged killings on Monday. There is no doubt that this man was guilty of many of the saloon and restaurant holdups In last Winter's 'crime wave.'
