CORA QUINLAN is ALIVE
One Murder at Least Of Which
Holmes Is Guiltless.
HIS CONFEDBRATBs ON THE RACK.

Lawyer Shoemaker Declares That Holmes
Has No Further Confessions to Make, and
That lie Is Guilty Of Nothing but Insur-
ance swindIes.
CHICAGO, July 27--Homes is at least
guiltlcss Of the murder Of little II -year-
old Cora Quinlan whatever his other
crimes may be- Cora is the daughter Of
Patrick Quinlan, one Of Holmes henoh-
men, and the police feared for her safety.
Tho following telegram, which sets at rest
the entire matter, was received by inspect
or Fitzpatrick from Lakota, Mich;
Cora Quinlan is at Johnson's IS and has
been for about two weeks"
MIS-. Quinlan, who has all along main
tanned an mir Of crafty reserve, was forced
70 admit that She had lied to the officers
on at least ono point ana this had the ef-
feet of weakening her considerably. Her
husband also spent q large part Of the day
in the sweatbox, and as result Of tho
days development Chief Badenoch decid-
cd to hold them for trial on the charge Of
being implicated in various insurance
swindles.
lie also believes they are guilty Of the
crime of assisting Holmes, if not directly,
at least indirectly, in making away with
some of his Victims
Joe Owens was brought in to refute one
OF Mrs Quinlan's statements, and he told
her flatly that she had lied. Owens will
probably be released today Mrs Quinlan
was forced to admit during the course Of
the examination that She had impersonat-
ed dead woman, representing herself as
the beneficiary of an insurance policy in
order TO gain the money which went into
Holmes pocket.
