A WEAK CONFESSION.
LOYD 3IONTGOMERY TELLS A
STORY THAT WILL NOT
HOLD WATER.
Asserts That McKercher Shot His
Father and Mother and Ho
Shot McKercher.
About 10 o'clock yesterday forenoon
Loyd Montgomery made a statement to
Sheriff McFeron, which if true, would
clear him of serious guilt, but which in
its thinness will only tend to convict
him 6f the entire triple murder. An
awful weight has been pressing down on
the boy's mind and he had to relieve
himself of his feelings, so he gave a ver
sion of the murder, no doubt studied out
by him in hia cell, which will be be
lieved by no one, but will only make his
guilt convincing in the public mind.
The sheriff visited him. and in a very
Kind manner remarked to mm :
'Loyd, your father and I have been
mends ior over 20 years, and 1 am per
sonally interested in this matter. The
circumstances leave no doubt that you
had a hand in the affair," and he cited
to him tbe testimony of his brother) and
others, "and you might as well tell me
the truth just as it happened, and re
lieve your mind," making no promises
or anything in connection with the re
quest. He studied a moment, and then
aid: .
"Well, come inside and I will do it,
and tell you just how it happened." The
sheriff went inside, and sat down on the
cot beside him, when the prisoner told
the following story, sobbing, and break
ing down as he did so:
After Gilkey left McKercher and I be
gan talking about trading the gun for
the dog, while we were talking
about it we went through the kitchen
to the well just north oC it for a
drink of water. Mr. McKercher
who had the gun.drank and then I went
to drinking. Suddenly I heard the can
crack, and rushed in the house as Mc
Kercher ran around it. He fired twice
I rushed into the dining room and veiled
to mother. 'McKercher has shot father
and will kill ns now.' I rushed back
around the house. While doing so Mc
Kercher shot mother in the dining room.
As I reached the front door he was there
and fired at me, but niissed me and I
grabbed the gun, jerked it from him and
shot him dead."
Now that can't be true." said the
Sheriff, "You might as well tell about
the whole affair just as it happened.
"So hein me God." he answered "it is
all true."
A more inconsistent siorv was never
told. In the first place his mother would
have followed him through the kitchen
and not have wanted to be murdered. In
the next place the circumstances indicate
that it was done just this way, and by the
prisoner:
Well North.

When Mr. Gilkey left the house, Mr.
Montgomery and Mr. McKercher were
standing as indicated in the cut, Mr.
Montgomery to the left, and Loyd Mont
gomery between them and the house.
The boy went into the house, and got the
gun. I he distance from the kitchen
door to where Montgomery's body was
lying was 42 feet, from there to the front
door on the east 37 feet. He fired at his
father hitting him as heretofore de
scribed, and as he fell, he shot at Mc
Kercher, but missed him. A ball found
in the fence shows this fact. McKer
cher ran. crying to him not to shoot,
sprang into the door and tried to shut it
just as tbe murderer reached it with his
gun. He pried it back, a dent on it
shows the fact plainly. McKercher af
ter making desperate efforts to c'.oso it,
turned to run as he fired. Mrs. Mont-
gymery appeared in the dining room door
ana received two soots.
Were Montgomery's story correct the
boy would under all circumstances have
announced it at once, the defender of his
parents, and he would have been a hero.
The fact that he did not convicts him.
Montgomery told the same story to
two prisoners and to one other person.
loe grandmother ot tbe boy.who knew
bis character well, declared immediately
that he am iu
A result of the murder is the almost
crazed condition of the mother of Mc
Kercher. She is almost insane with
grief over the death of her beloved son,
her prop and mainstay in her old age,
There was nothing in tbe report that
tbe prisoner had made a complete con
fession, though it is confidently expected
that be will break down and do so. No
one has been admitted to see him today.

Fro Prison- to Astlc. It has been
some time since the Democrat has made
an item about O M. Bartlett, the man
who once stole a boat at Albany, and a
good many things at other place. Here
is one iroui tne statesman: o. M. Uart
lett, who was received at the state peni
tentiary about a year ag , from Crook
county on a sentence for horse stealing
and whose time in such institution would
have expired on the 10th prox., was yes
terday committed to the insane asylum
by County Judge Hubbard. Bartlett
never was possessed of a very sound
mind and has been in asylums of like
character before. He has been acting
in a very queer manner i-xtely and the
attending physician. Dr. Phil brook, en
tered a complaint with the court that he
be examined. Yesterday afternoon Judge
nubbard, ueputv County Clerk J. is.
Giesy, Deputy District Attorney A. O.
Oondit and Dr. j. A. Smith went to the
penitentiary and looked into his case.
Bartlett is 46 years old. He waa in the
asylum several years ago on a commit
ment from Eugene and last year, while
confined in the Marion county jail to
await the action of the grand iurv on a
charge of horse stealing, he was taken
oeiore Judge Hubbard ior a second ex
amination, which failed to result in his
commitment.

Loyd Montgomery Confesses to the
Triple Murder.
As anticipated Loyd Montgomery lias
made a full confession to the killing of
his father, mother and Mr. McKercher,
Late last night he confessed to the mur
der of all threo to J. R. Whitney and J.
S. an Winkte. It was anticipated he
would, notwithstanding his former con
fession. After some preliminary remarks,
drawing him out. he began with, "Oh,
if I only had to do it over again, I don't
know what made me do it," and gave an
account of it about as heretofore pic
tured. McKercher and Mr. Montzomrrv were
talking alout some motiev the latter
owed the former, w.ien the prisoner got
some water for McKercher. Then Mont
gomery took the prisoner to task for go
ing away from home on the hunt and
neglecting his work, ho asserted that his
father had always treated bim mean,
and on thi occasion he ended by elup
pimr the prisoner in the face and telling
him to cut some wood. This angered
the prisoner, and going into the
house he got the gun from a bed room,
came out to the kitchen door, and im
mediately shot without remembering just
how they stood. He shot his father tint,
fired at McKercher. Mrs. Montgomery
was also in the yard and she and Mc
Kercher ran toward the front door of
house, folio wed by the murderer. Just
as McKercher was going through the
door he shot him, and then his mother
as she fled through the house.
He declared that he had never had
any idea of killing them until he got so
mad, that when he got to shooting he
just kept at it. Then he just laid the
gun down without any idea as to the
purpose and ran into the field, returning
when the children came, lie shot five
liniM in a! I
The young man waa greatly affected
and seems all unnerved over the terrible
murder he committed. He laid it all t
his violent temer, but asserted that
while his father had never whipped him
he had treated him mean and be had
worked hard all his life.
