Confronted by Frank Seymour,
alias Parker, and in the preses.ee ot
Sheriff Jones, Prosecuting Attorney -Mulkoy
and Louis Baton, Bert Cum
mlngs, re-arrested Monday for com
plicity in the murder ot George De
daskaloua. a Greek, la this city Sep
tember 22, admitted that he knew
that the murder was planned several
days boforo it occurred, but insisted
that he turned down the plan as
first advanced by Spanos and later'
accepted by Frank Seymour. Cum
tilings also admitted that he had de
manded a third ot the loot as tho
price for his silence but states Jhat
he asked for his sharo "only as a
Joke." Seymour openly defied this
statement on the part ot Cumaalng
and declared that Cummlugs not
only helped In tho planning ot the
crime but that is was oniy by an un
foreseen occu ranee that be became
separated from Spanos and Seymour
leaving them alone in the actuat
commission of tho crime. Cum-
mtngs wilt be given his preliminary
hearing at Jacksonville Wedawday
morning. At tbat time the officers
expect to arrive at the full truth In
"the matter, as Sayawiir. Sbh9 j-and "
will probably take the standi.
Chloroform Suggested
Seymour declares that Spanoa and
Cummlngs first planned the crime.
At first it was proposed that Cum
mlngs securo a bottle of chloroform
and ubo that as the agent to rob
the Greek ot lito. Cummlngs ob
jected to this, declares Seymour, and
at that point In the planning be was
taken In as ono who would have tho
ncrro to club Dedaskalous into un
consciousness and allow the trio to
mako away with tho money tho
Greek was supposed to havo upon his
person.
On the nlgbt of tho crimo Spanos,
Gumming and Seymour left the hotel
together ana went to the pool room
on Fir street. Thoro after a few
moments Cummlugs Is said to have
become separated from tho two leav
ing them to carry out tho work.
Cummlngs declared at first that ho
know nothing whatever of the mat
ter but later when confronted at tho
county Jail by Seymour ho admitted
that ho know tho crime had boon
plannod and also that ho had asked

Seymour Laughs nt Him
"You might havo been Joking
when you started In." Seymour an
swered him Monday, "but you wero
