C. ALLEN A FORMER CONFEDERATE MAKES A STARTLING CONFESSION. Parted With thn Arch-Conspirator llncimto lln Wiiulil Not Kill a Mnn Allen enjn Mlnnlo Williams U Allvo Hut Annlo a Kllloil. 1'hlliulelphla, Aug. 2S.-A Little ltock, Atk., despatch to "The Press" says: ,1. 0 Allen alias Caldwell, who is serving a ten years' sentence In the Arkansas penitentiary fnr horse stealing, Is unques tionably familiar with in.iny of the mur derous operations of II. II. Holmes, the multi-murderer now contlned In the Phila delphia Jail. Attorneys Capps and Hum phreys, of Koitli Worth, and MarMial Ilea, of tlie same city have visited Allen during the past six weeks, am! all ludentlfy him as the "Mascot" so often referred to by the newspapers of the country. These gentlemen as well as teporters of this city and clsewhcie, have madu streneous efforts to secure a stafment from Un convict, but he has pel slstently refused to discuss Holmes In any shape or manner. Wnrdeii H. !!. Moore then went to work nnil ilnallv succeeded In obtalng a state ment fiolil Allen. The Warden says be 1 1 eonlldent Allen knows a great deal more than lie has told. Allen's language, word for word, was teduccd to willing and read, to him by the Warden, which he says ly, correct In every particular, lleie is what lie ?ays: I "In Holmes, Lyman, and myself met at HI. Joe, Mo., Mlnnlo Williams accom-j milled Lyman to St. Joe from Chicago, where she had been for some time living as the wife of Holmes. At this meeting was the llrst knowledge I had of the Koit Worth property deal. The Minnie Wil-, Hams property in Port Worth was then and there-dreded to me, In the name of A. K. llond, from Mlnnlo Williams, a notary public, whose mime ) have for - gotten, acknowledging the transaction, The deal was made with tho distinct un derstanding that it was to bo a swindling operation. It was my opinion at that time that Minnie Williams was pursiCTded or scared Into making the ttansfer of the property by Holmes. HOLMES' SWINDLES. "In a few days the propel ty was trans fer! ed by me to Lyman, but 1 was not preiont when the 'deal' whs made, Holmes making the transfer without my knowledgo or consent, liom hi. Joe Holmes, Lyman and inv.-elf went to Den ver, where we remained hut one day, and from there wo went to Leadvllle, -There Holmes and Lyman had In view some swindling operation, hut failed In doing (o. From Leadvllle the three of us, wltti Holmes' sivc.illed wife, Mm Howatd, went to Fort Worth, to commence opera tions there. We. arrived at Fort Worth as enilie strangers. The Holmes (l'ratt) transactions at Fort Worth are already familiar to the public. Lyman's drunken conduit at Forth Worth caused llolmis to send him away to KansasCity. Whllein Kansas Clt Lyman wrote several threat- oning letters to Holmes, In which he said that he. would turn up all their tascality unless Holmes sent him money. Lyman was furnished money at three different times, sent by me at Holmos' request. Holmes visited Lyman at Kansas City to gel him to sign the nucessaty papers to secure a loan of $10,000 on the Fort Worth property. "While Lyman was in Kaunas City, Holmes, pat Qtilnlan, who had joined us at Fort Worth a short time before we left that plac.and myscli had several talks about putting Lyman out of the way be cause Holmes had become afraid of him on account of his drinking too much, and knowing too much. It was known to w all that Lyman carried a JlO.tm life iiibtir ance policy. At our last talk upon this subject, three days before leaving Fort Worth, It was undet stood that Lyman was to bo killed. I was selected to assist Holmes In doing the job, but in what man ner it was to be, done was not definitely settled, only that Holmes remarked that he had something Unit would make wotk oasy, and a largo trunk was purchased in Fort Worth in which to place Lyman's hodv aftM- heluR killed to ship It off In. At this point Holmes patted me on the back and said: . "Mascot," it is $10,fm0 and a trip to Lorn; ' Hranch, and from then- to California and more buildings." PROTESTED AO A INST MCHDEIl. "I protested against assisting In killing Lyman, when Qtilnlan remarked: 'Take your medicine, old boy, It Is nothing after you get used to it.' That nlglit 1 advised Holmes to quit such business, as lie had enough money not to tesott to murdrr. He replied that ho hud been at such business so long that it had become per fectly natuial to him and he could not quit it. I told him we would become in volved in serious trouble to attempt or carry out such schemes, when he told me just to follow his Instructions and stick to 1 him and I would have a good thin' the balance of my life. The plan agreed upon to dispose of Lyman was that wu weie to meet him in St. Louis, and to gether go from there to Chicago, wheio I Eynan was to be "tlxed. i ( otiniry, ana u was time to plant moie. It was between Fort Worth and Lennison that Holmes told me tint 1 must have my life lusuted for $Pi,(,i) in favor of my little niece. Holmes was to collect the Insurance In his peculiar way and I was to get $2m) of the amount and Holmes 'soon for "col lecting." Hemembi ring the lingo titink bought for Lyman's body, and becoming fearful Unit 1 might not he alive when Holmes collected the insurance money, I determined lo part company with him. which I did at Denitl.son, and I have noicr seen him since, but received us many as three letteis from him. j "The last time I saw Minnie Williams' was at our meeting In St. Joe. Holmes' told her that she must leave the Vnited States for a period of three or four years. 1 If everything was .satlsfaetorv In Fort I I Worth she was to return and claim her! properly upon the grounds that tho title i I was obtained from her f randomly, she! ' establishing the proof that she was'out of , tlio Fnlted Slates at Hie time. India was I agreed upon as tho country to which sho should go. 1 went to tho depot with lu r, while Holmes bought hertleket undclieck- ed her baggage, hut where to 1 did not' know. If Mlnnlo Willlnms is dead she lias been put out of the way since this, excitement has gotten up in lognrd to Holmes. . "The building in Cliieagu known as the' "rustle" was erected especially for a ' "death trap," and riming my association with Holme:! T was left lo II often mul o, fnet nceutiird n room (hero 'l-ln, l,lr,,,,i ' of no one is upon my hands, but I nm .satislli-d min der was enniinliie,! In 1 1, I house, because I heatd Holmes and Quia-' I lan discuss the matter of their "taking1 I nff."

What 1 have stated i above Is every wold true, nnd If I have not told everything I know It Is because I have good and siilllcient reasons for not doing so. Or INTEREST TO VERMONTERS.
