DIDN'T KNOW
BAKER GIRL,
He SAYS
Auto Thief Built Up His Tale
From Facts Gathered Here In
Sixth Precinct, He Ayers

Having gained an admission
from Harry j. Allard. 20, who Is
under a five-year prison sentence
for automobile theft In Sche-
nectady, N. Y. that his sensa-
tional confession" to the com
mission of the brutal murder Of
Miss Mary e. Baker last April
was a fabrication. Detective Ser.
geant Flaherty. commander Of
the homicide squad, was en- route
to this city today.
Allard repudiated his confession
yesterday after being grilled for
three hours by Sergeant Flaherty
and Schenectady authorities. Dur.
ing the questioning the prisoner
was tripped In many details of
his story and at length admitted
that he had confessed to the mur.
der in an attempt to escape the
five-year prison sentence in Dan
nemora.
Wrote white" Letter
Detective Flaherty also gained
an admission from Allard that he
wrote letter, signed LEO White"
which gave local police their first
inlling of his possible connection
with the case.
He made this admission after
the Washington detective had
compared his handwriting with
the writing of the letter and
pointed out the similarity to the
prisoner.
Schenectady authorities. follow
ing Al1ard's admission that his
Baker murder confession was q
hoax, expressed doubt ais to the
veracity Of the prisoners confes-
sion to the murder of Frank Ma
gle, formerly of this city, in
Georgia In the winter of 1928.
Allard, however. stuck to this
story. stating he fatally stabbed
Magic during quarrel after Nar
gle had insulted his girl.
Never Knew Girl
The point which led authori-
ties to doubt the prisoners Baker
murder story, was the fact that
he stated Miss Baker was his
companion on the automobile
ride in Georgia, which preluded
Nagle's death.
In repudiating his confession"
in the Baker case. Allard ad-
mitted that he never knew Miss
Baker or had ever seen her.
He told authorities that he
learned the details of the Baker
murder mystery and the char
acters connected with the inves.
tigation of the crime through
reading newspapers while he was
held here in Sixth precinct last
August.
He was arrested by Detective
Sergt. Henry Jett in August and
held at the local precinct for
Schenectady authorities in connec-
tion with an automobile theft.
No Check Here
While Detective Flaherty was
busy in Schenectady, members of
the homicide squad under the di-
rection Of Capt. Edward Kelly
were busy running down" bits
