not go to Europe. 1t is not safe for every
one to 60 there. l have seen men come

KANSAS CRY, NO., February 24.-McNutt,
who, with Wrimer, murdered and burned a
painter named SAVERS at Wichita, Kansas,
in December last, has confessed the crime.
He says Wrimer persuaded him long
ago in Kansas City to enter upon q
course of crime and planned the whole affair.
McNutt was to have his life insured for
$4,000 and then kill and burn some victim,
and palm OF the body for his, so that the
money could be collected. At first they in
but finally concluded to 60 to Wichita,
thinking their escape would be easier
there. Being painters the men start.
trade. They were delayed, however, from
carrying out their plan for want of victim,
but Wrimer at last came to Kansas City, en-
gagged SAVERS to work for them, and sent
him down. They met him at the depot on
his arrival at Wachita and took him to the
shop, no one knowing anything about it.
They made him drunk and gave him ether
until he was unconscious. They then put
his face over the fire and burned it till 1t could
not be recognized, and laid it on bed sat-
urated with coal oil. McNutt then cut a
cash in winners arm with pair OF scissors,
