A Shift of Scare.
from Harper's Weekly.

From Harpers Weekly.
There seems to be some basis to the
stories that the two great German arma-
ment companies have been promoting war
agitations in order to sell their goods.
Probably the promotion was done BY ire
spopsibe persons. but at any rate a shift
of scare in Germany from the govern
ment to the armament makers seems a
thing TO be thankful for. The armament
business has been extremely profitable
and profits are tempting and liable to be-
come a habit, but the business seems to
have been overdone. A sharp attack Of
Krupp nausea in Germany might bring
relief 10 all the world

Meade Barr Gives Police Details of the
Murder of Miss Florence Brown
at Dallas

Dallas, Tex, Nov. 4.-The police have
given out the details of the confession
of Meade Barr, charged jointly with
Mrs. Ellis Lake, a young widow, with
the murder of Miss Florence Brown here
last July.
Barr was charged with the crime sew
eral days ago before his arrival here
from the Jacksonville, Ind, reforma
tory. where he first confessed.
The charge against Mrs. Lake WAS
filed by chief of detectives Tanner. Off
Gals would not reveal why Barr con-
neeted her with the killing, pending IN
vestigatiOn of his story by the grand
jury. Mrs. Lake and her husband, who
recently died of malarial fever, lived in
the same house with Bars sister when
Barr was under parole from Indiana last
summer. Mrs. Lake IS about 25 years
old.
Details Of Bars confession, beginning
within an hour of the murder on the
morning of July %, follows:
In that hour Barr said he took several
drinks of whisky. About $3.50 he en-
tered the real estate office where the
girl was at work alone Bars drinking,
the police said, accounted for certain
discrepancies in his story of the struggle
with Miss Brown. He said he attacked
her near a window and that there was a
tYpewriting machine nearby However,
there was neither window nor machine
in the room. When Barr had beaten
Miss Brown with his pistol to a kneel-
mo position, he said she exclaimed:
Lord Jesus, / am too young to die
and nv life has been filled with so much
trouble"
He cut her throat Sight of the blood
on his arms and her last words. he said,
proved on him until he wanted to con
fess the killing. He said he washed his
hands, caught a street car and rode to
a noint where an accomplice gave MIN
S100- The identity of this accomplice
the police have not verified. The police
found a shoemaker who remembered
that Barr came into his shop shortly
after the hour of the murder. Barr had
pointed out this shop as one of the stops
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1913-11-04

in his flight They also found a negro
woman at whose house he stopped.
He helped her carry a can of water
and then tried to wash something off his
coat. Barr said he tried to remove blood
stains. Notification of these and other
details of the confession were the basis
for the growing belief of the police that
Barr might have been Miss Browns
slayer.
Mrs Lake IN a statement denied that
she had any part in or knowledge OF the
killing of the young woman, and at
tributed Barr's attempt to implicate her
as an endeavor to be revenged for her
refusal to accept his advances these
we're made. she declared, before the
death of her husband, which occurred a
month ago.
Mrs. Lake declares that she was not
acquainted with Miss Brown.
