New York. July s.-Almost 400 letter,

in the Capitol at Washington. attacked

an ocean liner and finally ended his own
life in the Mineola, L. l., Jail. received In
the nine years between the spring of 1906
and last month. when he left Cornell

police.
They were included in the Cornell in
structor's effects seized by the Ithaca
police after Hollis arrest and were sent
here at the request of Commissioner
Woods. They were received yesterday
afternoon, and Capt. Tunney. of the de-
tective department.. and Guy Scull, Sec
rotary to the commissioner. spent several
hours in their perusal. About half had
been examined last night.
No Suggestion of Violence.
According to information given out by
the police those of the letters which
were read were something of a disap-
pointment. Though they date from a few
weeks after the murder of Mrs. Erich
Muenter. wife of a Harvard instructor.
they contain no reference to that case.
Though former friends of Muenter, who
disappeared Immediately after the kill
Ing of his wife. assert that Holt was
none other than the accused Harvard
teacher, even the earliest Of the letters,
dated in July 1906 was addressed in the
name of Holt.
In none of the letters has been found
the slightest suggestion that their re-
cipient was interested in murder. other
acts of violence or German propaganda.
In the hope of discovering a clew to pos
sible accomplices the police examined the
correspondence of most recent date as
well as that of nine years ago
Correspondents All Men.
Holt preserved few OF the envelopes
the letters. SO II is impossible
to determine where he was when they
were received. From the text Of a few
which were undated it was evident that
he was in Texas and one apparently
reached him when he was at the Univer-
sity of Oklahoma
None of the letters was from a woman
Hollis correspondents appear to have
been chiefly men of literary turn of
mind. Most of them are in English. but
some were written in French and some
in German

two years he has been the field ,secre-
tary OF the United missionary Cam
tcndent Of missions in the west under
the auspices Of the American Baptist
paign of the Northern, Baptist con-
vention. In his touch with thou
sands Of churches of other denomi-
nations as well assthose OF the Bap-
lists. he has acquired a fund of in
formation which few men can get.
His addresses are chiefly on the sub
jects that are connected with the A.
nancial questions Of the church, but
they are far from dry and uninter-
esting. His Irish wit comes out in
almost very address, but along with
this he does not neglect the practical
parts which appeal to every business
man. He speaks against all those
spasmodic and emotional schemes for
raising money for churches that have
become so common in the recent
years, and speaks with force about
systemic, proportionate and at the
