NEw York, August 22.-Angelo Amfare
alias Larry o'Neal, an accomplice in the
murder Of Jos, Frye in Boston, was cap

had an engagement to meet friend at
DagO Hall, 81 Hamilton avenue, favorite
Italian headquarters, Detectives Dorsey,
Of this city, Wood, Of Boston, and Roche
and Mahoney, OF Brooklyn, went there
and found him there. When he was placed
under arrest'he said that he knew what
he was arrested for, but it would be all
right when he went to Boston. He declared
that he did not commit the murder, but
knew who did. He acknowledged having
been with Ardito and Euiantino the night
Of the murder, but said he stopped out
side OF the house. About midnight his
companions came out and showed him
several articles which they said Frye had
given them. After that, when he
refused to believe them, they confessed
to having killed Fry. The prisoner after
wards denied this story. He was willing
to go to Boston without requisition, and
he will be taken back tomorrow by De.
