A MoaIANs CONFESSION.
Madame Pinto Was the Tool OF a Drsther
ofIdf victim.


DENVER, Col. July detective Reno,
with his prisoner, Madame Philo, arriy-
ed here this morning. Last January
Madame Philo was arrested for the theft
of one thousand dollar check from the
office Of G. A. Newkirk, state agent of
the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Com
pany. After her release on 5000
bond she disguised herself and went to
Chicago, where she engaged in dress
making. She was found by Detective
Reno, and while on the way to Denver,
across Illinois, jumped from the rapidly
moving train sustaining severe injuries.
After her recapture she made full con-
fession 10 the detective. Her confession
duplicates c. NJ, Newkirk, brother
OF the insurance agent. She throws the
whole blame on hiIniand says he forged
his brothers name to the check and
then induced her TO deposit the check,
afterwards drawing the money from the
bank. 1t was through her love for
Newkirk, she says, that she consented
to the crime and it was TO shield him
from disgrace tliatshb attempted suicide
by jumping from the train. Newkirk
was arrested and jailed tonight.
