HOLMES DEADLY WATTS.
Belief That They We're Used 10 Suftocate His
Victims.

CHICAGO, Aug. 1-Anothcr link in the
chain binding Quinlan to tlH alleged
crimes Of II. III. Holmes was forged yestcr.
day by an admission made by Quinlan
when questioned by Chief of Police Babe.
noch
He said he was hired by man named
Allen otherwise known as Hatch) to GO
to Fort Worth, Tex. At the time he was
engaged he said he had only one days &C.
qualntance with Allen, and on the follow.
ing day he started for Fort Worth. Quin-
Ian had previously claimed that he had no
knowledge of any crimes committed by
Holmes, although he had admitted that in
Fort Worth he met aud knew man called
Mascot" Now that Allen and Mascot"
are practically proven to be one and the
same man, Quinlan's contradictory stories
have placed him in still worse light
with the police.
That Mrs. QuinlGn, the wife of tho
Janitor who is supposed to know so much
about the misdeeds of Holmes, made a
partial confession to the police yesterday
is almost certain.
AT an early hour the two principal in
vestigators of the case went to the Harri-
son street station, where Mr.. and Mrs.
l9ulnlan have been confined. taking with
them stenographcr. Chief Badcnoch de-
clared that nothing had transpired which
he could give to the press without injur-
ing the police status of the case.
He admitted that Quinlan broke down
completely and wept like a child, but
denied that he had said anything which
would implicate either himself or Holmes
IN the murders laid at their doors.
Mrs. Quinlan was very much affected. ;"
said Chief Dadcnoch "Shc not only went
throughout the whole interview. which I
need not say was unusually severe but
she said, I call on God to witness that
know nothing more of the murder than I
have already told. If Pat says 1 know
anything more about it he simply lies,
that's ALL"
This remark was called out by the de.
coy statement made to her that her hus-
band had confessed everything. At least
tins is the story the police told, but it is
believed from the whole circumstances OF
the Interview that much more was said
than the inquisitors cared to give out.
We shall not go to Little Rock at ALL"
said Inspector Fitzpatrick. 1--WE are going
to bring Hatch here, If possible. We can
not bring him on a requisition, as he is al
ready confined on an offense of which ho
had been convicted. but think we can get
him here on "A parOle "
