Catherine Kaber has confessed that
her husband, Dan F. Kaber. was mur-

Lakewood home two years ago, and
Marian McArdle, Mra Kaber’s daugh-
ter, has confirmed much of her moth-
er's story, the Cleveland News an-
nounces this morning on information

Chief Christensen of Lake wood to
County Prosecutor Staton here early
today.
The man with the cap, now in cus-

body, according to the News informant.
A woman whom Mrs. Kaber says
planned the murder was arrested in
her home here early today by Prose-
cutor Stanton and Chief of Police
Smith.
According to Prosecutor Stanton’s
information from Chief Christensen.
Mrs. Kaber said "two foreigners did
the murder," and declared that a
woman arrested by Cleveland officers

ing and now held in jail here procured
the actual slayers.
The man with the cap” was arrest-
ed here Wednesday, and his compan-
ion, a cousin, who. according to Mrs.
Kaber’s confession, sat at Kaber’s head
to stifle his cries, is being sought by
police.

foreigners engaged by Mrs. Kaber to
pose as spirits to frighten him into a
better attitude toward her. accohding
to a statement which the New York

Police Christensen obtained from Mra
Kaber here.
The newspaper quotes Chief Chris-

attitude toward her. The publisher’s
surly manner after an illness was said
to have occasioned the visit.

she expressed It. to try and shake a
little civility into him.

men and to have been stabbed to
death by them in the struggle.

not fulfilled the role of ghosts as she
had Intended and that she would not
involve herself by paying for murder
Mra. Kaber was then said to have
fled to New York to escape the for-
eigners without advising the Cleve-
land police for fear of Involving her-
self.
