Also in a Chicago Suburb.


Also in a Chicago Suburb.
By Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press
San Francisco, Aug. 20.-A man CIV
ing the name of Thomas Kelly has been
arrested here and lodged in the city
prison, on suspicion of being William
Bartholin, who is wanted in Chicago,
to explain the murder of his mother
and Minnie Mitchell. The man was
brought to the prison in heavy irons.
The detectives refuse to talk about the
case. The Call says that the prisoner
declared to the officials that he must
have been wanted for beating woman
to death, but said he knew nothing of
the case. He admitted being from Chi
cago, but said that he left there some
months ago. He said that he had been
working on a sailing vessel. He told
the officers that he was ordered to take
the captains trunk ashore and did so,
and on landing was arrested.
Chicago, Aug 20.-IDspector Hunt
was summoned to the telephone late
last night by man who said he was
in Kensington. He asked the inspector
If a citizen had the power to place Bar
tholin under arrest.
Certainly" was the response, but
you must turn him over at once to an
officer"
The man on the telephone explained
that he had known of Bartholin's place
of concealment for several days, and
that he had been dickering without
success to arrange for deposit of a
reward before he would divulge his in
formation. He talked at length and
refused to let a detail of police join
him. He would only say that his name
was Mccarthy. Pressed by the in
spector as to whether his suspect was
within the limits of the city, he only
replied by asking if 139th street was
outside the city limits.
Deputy Coroner Flanagan today
opened the second session of the inquest
on the Bartholin- n-Mitchell murders.
Relatives of Minnie Mitchell said that
the clothes found near the body made
them hold to the belief that it was her
body they had buried.
