ONE MAN DID BOTH JOBS.
Man Who Placed Bomb Also Shot MIR.
Morgan.

Glen Cove, n. Y, July 3.-Frank
Holt is the man who set the bomb
that exploded in the Capitol at Wash
ington last night.
In a statement to Justice Luyster
and Thomas Tunncy, head of the
bomb squad Of the detective bureau,
Holt confessed setting the bomb and
described it. AS a missile Of terror it
was said to be unique in the annals
Of the New York police department.
~ made this bomb" Holt is quo
ted as having said in his confession,
with three sticks of dynamite, some
match heads and a bottle Of sulphu-
ric acid"
Pretty slick" commented Tun-
ney. 81 don't see now you did it,"
"Well, you see." Holt answered.
II had experimental on it before

just how to do 1t. | really didn't

vatiOns had been checked up, and |

almost to the minute. | knew how
much time | had. so | hung around
while the acid was eating its way
through the cork. | pulled out my
watch and said to myself that it
ought to be going pretty soon. And
sure enough it did go pretty soon
Then | hurried away"
IIolts confession of the Capitol
outrage came fast on the honls o. his
denial 10 newspaper men Of the same
charge.
Don't YOU know anything about
this?" they asked him.
"No, | DON'T" he asserted II

"What were you doing all day?"
IL was walking arounG the streets
in New York, trying to make up my
mind to come out, here to-day and do
my duty. That was all. was think
ing it over"
When Holt was told that the Mills
Hotel clerks had not recalled seeing
him there yesterday, he still stuck
to his story.
1t does look strange, doesn't it,"
he asked, after reading the Wash
ington story for the second time. 1T
seems that the man who did that
thought about like | did, too, doesn't
it? 1t was rather odd that he used
almost the same words as | did. I

When the newspaper reporters
left, Justice LuySter and Capt. Tun-

Similarities in the known history Of
Holt and that Of Muenter, and, in ad-
dition, many points yet to be told the
police about IIolt's life. One Of these
points, it was said. related to Holt's
whereabouts in 1906, the year of the
alleged murder.
Sheriff Grifenhagen questioned
Holt closely as to this. When Holt
answered it was to deny emphati-
cally that he was Erich Muenter. He
did not know Muenter, he said, and
hao nothing to do with the murder
Of Mrs. Muenter.
"Where were you in 19O62" the
sheriff persisted
Holt made him repeat the question
several times before replying. Then
he said in a husky whisper and as if
in a daZe: 81 don't remember"
1t became known to-day that the
secret service is following the leads
opened by Holt's story. Every city
he has mentioned, it was said, will
be visited, and countrywide search
is to be made to determine where he
was born and where and how he
spent his entire life.
Chas. |. Wood. assistant district
attorney Of Nassau county, who was
in Harvard University while Muenter
was there, went to-day to see Holt in
his cell. Afterwards he said that
while Holt bore a strong resemblance
to Muenter, he did not think he was
The same man.
After a second talk with Holt, Mr..
Wood withdrew his previous state
ment that he did not think Holt and
Muenter were the same man and as
serted he was not sure.
His eyes and his eyebrows are the
same as Mucnter's," Mr.. Wood de-
clared. His nose, his mouth and
other features strongly resemble
those Of Mucnter. | could not be
positive that he is or is not Muenter,
because his head was tied up in a
bandage and this, Of course, altered
his normal appearance.
Holt Hears from Wife.
A telegram from the prisoners
wife, received by him late to-day.
was dated Motate, Texas. Previous
reports were that Mrs. Holt was with
her father in Dallas.
The telegram said:
Everything is all right 1t is
your duty now to rest and let loved
ones and God take care OF you. All
your friends send love. They are so
kind to us here. If you can let us
know that you get this, do So"
The message was signed Mrs.
Frank Holt" Holt read the teie-
gram without comment. He sent no
answer.
Unable to Clear Mystery.
Dallas. Texas, July 5.-Mrs Frank
Holt was unable to-day to clear ND
the mystery regarding the past of
her husband, who shot J. p. Morgan.
She said he was born in Wisconsin,
but she was unable to give the name
Of the place.
Mrs. Holt said Holts parents died
before she was married to him, and
he had no close relatives. The only
relative she could recall was a cotton
buyer in North Carolina, and could
not recall his name nor where he
lived.

of the allies offensive, without the
end being yet in sight.
The announcement by the French and
British governments Of 4S hours delay
In all private kilograms sent to neutral
countries, is an indication that highly
important new military movements are,
under way. The nature of these must
be kept secret from the enemy and TO
guard against every possible mis-
chance means have thus been devised
to prevent Germany from learning any
thing through ingenious code kilograms
to neutral countries.
New points of weakness in the bat
tlefront are now being searched for not
only by the allies out also by the Ger
mans. A German attack is reported at
Roye, which Is forty miles due south
of Arras, and quite outside the area
Of the Artois> and Flanders offensive.
The Roye movement suggests how the
conflict may jump to unsuspected places
at moments notice. Roye marks the
beginning of the angle which the Ger
man battlefront forms as 1t turns grad
ually from q north and south direction
until at Soissons, It runs directly TO the
east. 1t may be that a new allied move
ment will soon develop between Roye
and Scissors, with the supply centers Of
LaFere and Laon as objectives. This
would be the natural third point Of mt
tack in cooperation with the present
Artois-Flanders and Champagne cffen-
sives.
