CAMPBELL ADMITS
KILLING FOR MONEY
Bigamist, Confessing Crime,
Says He Tried to Keep
Up Appearances"
by the Associated Press.
EY.TZARrTH NJ 7

ny the Associated Press.
ELIZABETH, N. j., April 12.-The
past life of bigamist and narcotic
addict driven to kill one of his wives IN
desperate attempt to keep up appear
ances" before another, was revealed yes
terday in the preparation of grand jury
evidence against Henry Colin Campbell.
His arrest solved the Staying OF Mrs.
Mildred Mowry Campbell, whose body
was found drenched with gasoline and
afiame beside road near Crawford on
February %.
Campbell, go years old, mild of man
ner and whitehaired, told Prosecutor A.
j. David of Union County, that in order
to enable himself to pay of installments
on a $4,000 home, he married the
widowed Mrs. Mowry, nurse of Green
willie, Pa, for the money she had. 1t
developed that her savings totaled only
ST 900. Having deposited the sum in a
Joint account, she insisted her husband
provide the home he promised her.
Campbell. in confessing the crime
said that after having driven aimlessly
from roadhouse to roadhouse through
New Jersey, he fired bullet through
his brides head at dawn while she dozed
beside him in the automobile. After
throwing out the body and setting it
afre, he went home to his wife and
three children in Westfield.
Had to Give Up Home.
The victims $1,000, however, did little
to- pay for his home, and several days
after the Staying, Campbell had to give
it up and move to an apartment in
Elizabeth with his family. Campbell
resided formerly in Salisbury and Bal
timore, Md, and negotiations to eX-
change property he owned there for the
Westfield house helped the police to
trace his movements after the body OF
Mrs. Mowry had been identified by res
Soents of Greenville.
Campbell told David he took mar
cotic habitually to still the pain of a
chronic ailment. He said he had mar
aTied four times, twice bigamously. He
married first in the West about 20 years
ago, his wife dying shortly afterward. A
woman he married in Omaha, Neb., in
1910, gained an annulment when she
learned her husband had in the mean
time married Rosaline McReady Of Chi
cago, the present Mrs. Campbell, his
confession said.
Wife Ignorant of Duplicity.
Mrs. Campbell told the prosecutor to-
day that she and Campbell had renlar-
Tied after the other woman's marriage
was annulled. Their children are two
girls, IA and IS, and boy, 3 years old.
Mrs. Campbell was questioned by David,
who said she had no knowledge of her
husbands duplicity and crime.
David, and Prosecutor F. L. Bergen of
Somerset County. abandoned the theory
that Campbell might have been respon-
sible for the killing Of Miss Margaret
Brown near Bernardsville a year before
Mrs. Mowry met death.
Miss Brown. 40-year-old governeSs,
was beaten unconscious and set afire in
Bernardsville, about Is miles from Gran
ford. under circumstances similar to
those surrounding Mrs. Mowry's death.
The prisoner told the authorities he
was at home that day, and his wife
corroborated him.

TRAFFIC FORFEIT
FORMS ARE READY
Inspector Brown Plans for
Two Copies of Col
lateral Receipt.

Preliminary work of the Police De-
partment to put into effect the new sys-
tenn, whereby violators of certain traf-
&c rules may leave collateral at the pre-
cinct station without the necessity of
the arresting officer going to Police
Court, has almost been completed. As
sistant Superintendent e. w. Brown, in
charge of the Traffic Bureau, has made
up the forms necessary for the working
out Of the new system, which goes into
effect May ! and they are expected to
be approved by the Commissioners
shortly.
Under the Commissioners order, four
copies of the receipt given to the per-
son arrested for his collateral were to
have been made, one to remain at the
precinct, one to go to Police Court, one
to the District auditor and one to the
director of traffic. Inspector Brown
says that only two will be necessary the
one for the precinct and the one Cor the
Police Court.
The auditor, he said, gets a copy Of
the collateral list containing all tiie in
formation he needs and the director Of
traf1c is not interested in the forfeit
ures. He will seek to have the Commits
sioners' order amended so that only two
copies VIII have to be made out.

BY the Associated Press.

Gated recently in Seattle. testified yes

her mother Mrs. Minnie Kennedy, had
admitted as much and that they had
confessed that the evangelist really was
Calf. during the time she says she was
being held by kidnapers in Mexico.
Documents Sent For.
Attorneys for the jurist. who is ac-
cuSed of Illegally acting as Mrs. Nc
Pherson's attorney and Of obstructing
justice by attempting to clear her of
conspiracy charges growing out of the
kidnapping story, announced that they
had sent to Los Angeles for documents
showing that Mrs. Wiseman- Sielaff at
one time was an inmate of an insane
asylum at Provo, Utah.
Mrs. Wiseman-Sielaff testified that
she arranged with Judge Hardy to pro-
duce Miss X" the woman who oc-
cupied Carmel house in 1926. while
Mrs. Mcpherson was missing from her
Angelus Temple. Miss x" never has
been identified.
Time Asked Of Court.
Mrs. Wiseman- Sielaff was turned over
to the defense for questioning yester-
day. but Judge Hardy's attorneys ask
ed that they be allowed until Monday
to cross-examine so they might obtain
records of her former testimony and
records indicating she had been sent to
the asylum.
