Says Himself and Another Fellow
Committed a Dastardly Murder.
Bismarck, n. D., April 1.-THE mys-
terry as to the identity of the perpe-
traitors of the fiendish butcher of the
Spicer family at Winona, has been
partially cleared up. Alex CABOT, the
French half breed, under arrest, has
made a confession in which he has i'm
plicated Black Hawk, the negro half
breed, who is also under arrest as a
suspect. After the confession, CABOT
made vicious attempt at suicide.
The wound, however, is not likely to
prove fatal. Last Wednesday CABOT
admitted that Black Hawk commit
ted the deed but denied that he had
anything to do with it. Black Hawk
insisted upon his innocence and re-
fused to believ that CABOT had con-
fessed. The officers have secured
other important evidence but kept it
from the public, except to admit that
others besides these two were con-
cerned in the crime. Feeling in EN-
mons county is at fever heat The
hearing has continued and will con-
tinue until May 4, to allow the collec-
ton of more evidence.
