from where he stood ON the hill "a shot
was fired, and he came up, and Harry
jumped out of the buggy, and he Says: !:

and the woman was in the corner of it.

and the buffalo robe was laid up against
her. He said that Harry said 1t is all

illustrated by taking hold of my feet,
and 1t made Inc creep when he did it
and just lifted them up and put

which came along shortly. Then he
got into the ear and came down town.

Question-''What did he say as to
time of leaving to go out?"
ApSwer-"He said that he left at Is

"The chief thought it was best to take
carriage before we had his story taken
down by stenographer and 20 out to
these grounds. SO we went and got a
carriage, and the chief. Inspectors HOY
and Howard and Mr.. BliXt and myself
started.
I'VE drove out Hennepin avenue, and
we went by one of these places, and he
showed us all the different places where
he was on that night. He said that he
got out at this place-When we got to
the corner OF Lake street there-and
that he ran diagonally across the street
and went down that way until he came
to those houses there. and then he cut
across and kept most of the time along
the track there; IL was moonlight, YOU
know; about half moon, and it was
easy to see, and the gronnG was frozen
and 1t was smooth, and he said he kept
on until he got to the side of that hill.
and then he stopped and waited.
lie Seld he hadn't been waiting long,
perhaps three or four minutes, when he
saw the carriage coming, and, without
saying anything, just as soon as the
carriage got so that Harry could see
him, and he felt that Harry knew that
ne was there, and waited for him.
linen he heard the shot fired, and Harry
drove up quickly and jumped out on
the same side that he was and said: Its
done. She is fixed. Get in here and
take care of her, and keep her out of
the way, and see that she is dead, and
drive around so as to let me get into
town and up to the theater."
Inc mayor here read the confession
OF BllXt as taken down by a steaogra-
pher, and the following additional state
ments were secured:l
Harry told him, he said, that IL he
didn't do AS he wished, that he had got
him on the hip, or got the bulge on him,
by his evidence against him in regard
to burning the barn. he also said that
Harry told him that after he got through
with this job, he had a better scheme on
had that would beat this all TO pieces
that he knew of a family In which
there was girl that he was acquainted
with, and that he was going to arrange
to kill the father and the mother, and
then get the money that was left"
