Denies That His Name Is BulIing.
CHICAGO June 6. -Chaiaed to an
iron bed in Matt Pinkerton's detective
agency there lies Louis Bulling, the
Missouri wife murderer, who, after
desperate fight, was captured by Hyde
Park officers, and until late this even
ing kept in cell in an out OF the way
station. Sheriff Kelly of st. Joseph,
Mo-, arrived tonight and went to Hyde
Park station and fully identified the
prisoner. Kelly has requisitiOn papers
and intends to take his man to Missouri
tomorrow. Just at dark tonight
Sheriff Kelly drove down to the Hyde
Park station in company with Pinker-
ton, and presented an order from Chief
McClaughey. Bulling was given into
his custody. After being heavily
ironed the murderer was placed in a
close carriage and with the sheriff and
Pinkerton on either side, your CORE
spOndent facing the trio, and with two
operatives armed to the teeth on the
outside, the long drive to Pinkerton's
down town Office was begun. At 63O0
Cottage Grove avenue is the saloon
where Bulling worked for time. Here
a stop was made and the murderer's
effects, including his letters, papers,
ETC., were secured. About midnight
the carriage arrived at Pinkerten's
headquarters.
All the way down town Bulling, who
is veritable morphine fiend, begged
for some of the drug. He would talk OF
nothing else and mOaned and cried till
his three companions were driven al
most wild. When the agency was
reached some of the drug was procured
and Bulling was allowed to self-admin-
lister two by hyperdermic injections.
He at once forgot his broken arm and
other pains and talked for few mo-
ments. He declared he was not Bull
ling, and was innocent OF any crime
this, notwithstanding Kellys positive
Identification, the photograph and the
Disbursements of the face, which tally
with the prisoner.
~ will not tell you who I am" said
he, "because l don't want my people to
hear of this. My mother has suffered
enough. | am not Louis Bulling, and
never murdered any one"
"Why did you make such a desper-
ate fight Sunday night with the Off
cers?"
II made no fight. I was sitting on
the sidewalk when two bluecoats came
along and pinehed me-"
The morphine had evidently begun
to work.
ST have been treated outrageOusly by
the police 1 came here from Buffalo.
I've been here two weeks. I'm not
bad mani, I,"-but Bulling was
asleep.
Papers found on Bulling include let
tiers from one Pearl Fort, OF Harks-
will, Mo and are too vile to print. They
were addressed to Louis May" the
alias under which Bulling has been
sailing. She refers to the murder in
these terms: ''Its too bad for them
to say all the cruel things against
my baby" meaning the pris-
oner. One letter was written by Bull
ing and addressed to James Kersey.
Kansas City. 1t read: BE sure and
see Bill. Write me soon as possible
and send all reports and newspaper
clippings, so I will know where they
are watching for me. Now, dear old
boy, has Bill been to see you yet? Did
he tell you the close call we had down
there? l tell you, Bill was all worked
up, and thought sure | was gone, but
[ am not one bit uneasy if no one gives
anything away"
