Elmer Carr, Arrested on Arson Charge, Thought to Be The Fiend by the Ohio State Fire Marshal. : STARTLING STORIES RELATED BY A WOMAN Mrs. Middlestetter, Dayton Boarding House Keeper, Charges Carr as Author of The Many Crimes. Columbus, Ohio, April 27. The State Tire Marshall's department yesterday received the testimony of Mrs. Carrie fctf. Middlestetter, of Dayton, In which she charges that Elmer Carr, now under arrest, is responsible for the murder of Lizzie Fullhart, whose decomposed body was discovered hanging in cistern some time ago. , This, wltia other mysterious murders in that vicinity, has stirred up the police deKrtmenta through the country. While e police department at Dayton does kiot take much stock in the statements made by Mrs. Middlestetter, the state flre-marshal-takes an entirely differ""Sent view of it.Tor it is claimed that the evidence given Bythe woman was Without undue influence on the part tot the deputy marshals. ?An abstract tot the testimony,' which was sworn tu before a Notary Public, was givea but. v : It shows that Carr, who is a, cheese maker, was arrested last fall by Deputy Fire Marshals on a charge bf arson. ; He was wanted for burning a restaurant and also a residence belonging to Mrs. Middlestetter. But when the woman was questioned she unhesitatingly shielded: him, although there was evidence that Carr collected her insurance and gave her nothing. She was In mortal fear of the man. She dared not tell anything she knew. New Evidence Discovered. Last Wednesday, Detective O. B. Hulllnger, acting, under orders 1 from General W. S. Rogers, the State Fire Marshal, discovered additional evidence against Carr in the arson cases. It developed that he even burned a third piece of property belonging to the woman. Carr had been working for Mrs. Middlestetter and her husband The hungry schoolboy who played ball so hard that he fell asleep waiting for supper, and then dreamed he was at a feast, suddenly awoke to the realization of his dream. - - His thoughtful : mother had placed a heaping saucer of v PostTcastios and cream on his plate, and' then gave ' him "the loving nudge."

at their cheese factory, near Dayton. He was responsible for; domestic differences which resulted In their; separation. . Mrs. Middlestetter, acting under Carr's orders, moved to Dayton and started a rooming house and restaurant. There he was monarch of all be surveyed. ,' - Hulllnger met Carr on the street of Dayton Thursday and promptly arrested him, entering a ' charge of arson against him. In company with H. H. Hollenbeck, another fire marshal detective assigned to the case, he went directly to Mrs. Middlestetter, assure!

her that Carr was sure of a long pris on term, and finally they induced her to give evidence against him. But the arson cases soon paled into insignificance, serious as they; are. The woman found consolation in Carr being at last in the hands of the law, and she told all. Her revelations constitute one of the most Important bits of testimony ever secured in the criminal history of the state. ' She began by telling that Carr freely admitted to her directly after he felt confident be had her in his power, that he had murdered a young woman in the little town of Boston, near Buffalo. N. Y., and that he had changed his name when he came to work for the Middlestetters. Prior to the murder at Boston he had served a term in Sing Sing, but he would never tell for what crime or under what name. A Saturnalia of Crime. Then, according to Mrs. Middlestetter's affidavit, Carr started upon a saturnalia of crime She declares he brought home ladles' purses every night, giving them broken and with the handles torn, to her young child. Then the story gradually came out about the monstrous murders, of pretey Mary Forschner, on January 23, last, and of Lizzie Fullhart,; another pretty young woman on the night of Sunday, January 31. Carr had been for weeks donning a black face and various kinds of make-ups each, evening upon leaving the house. Mrs. Middlestetter reluctantly admitted that she had found Carr to be a moral pervert and he freely confided to her and her daughter now 14 years old, that, he wore these to "frighten and fool women." He told of meeting womed whom he could not resist. Then on the night of January 23 he; left the house at dark, wearing his black falsefa A PAIR OF CIRCUS FAVORITES Wl face and other disguises, Including heavy workman's shoes and corduroy trousers. He carried his other shoes in the pockets of his overcoat. Then he. returned at 11 o'clock, carrying the workman's shoes in his hands. He saturated the overcoat, slouch hat, corduroy trousers, all covered with mud, and the other disguises, with kerosene and burned them before the eyes of the woman and her daughter. Then he threatened their lives if they breathed a word of what they had seen. He told them they would know all about his adventures in the morning, according to Mrs. Middlestetter's long confession. And they did. It related to the brutal murder of little Mary Forschner, who was sent by her mother to the corner grocery store about 7 o'clock that night and who was found near midnight, murdered in a stable three blocks from her home. She had been assaulted and brutally mutilated. The Fullhart Tragedy. On the night of January 31, last, so Mrs. Middlestetter says, Carr had young eighteen-year-old Lizzie Fullhart in her boarding house. He went away with her Just before midnight, and she was never seen alive after that hour. This was on Sunday night. At -9 o'clock the following night Carr. came back and sent for 'Mrs. Middlestetter to meet him out in the dark. He wanted to know If the papers had contained anything interesting that afternoon. She hadn't seen anything startling but he assured bed she soon would and that it would "turn the old town upside down." He wanted her to go with him to an abandoned old mansion on Jefferson street, near the heart of the business section of Dayton. . He had the keys to the house, but she was afraid and wouldn't go. - He came back.; next day and she accompanied him. : There he pointed significantly to the cistern in the back yard Of the property and told her it would some day tell its tale. On the following Friday morning two workmen found the dead body of Lizzie Fullhart floating In the cistern, her head covered in a gunny sack which came from the Middlestetter home. When he was arrested as a suspect, having been seen : with the girl when he had no diaguie em, Carr

sent word to Mrs. Middlestetter to hide the big picture hat belonging to the Fullhart girl, which she had left at the boarding house. This she promptly did by chucking it up the chimney. The evidence of Mrs. Middlestetter is corroborrated by numerous witnesses, most of them" roomers at her house. Inasmuch as the prints of the corduroy trousers furnished the' best clew in the hunt for the murderer of the Forschner girl, Mrs. Middlestetter came hear getting herself In trouble when she heard about the murder the next morning. In an unguarded moment she acted suspiciously, as if she knew something she did not tell. But TH HAQENBECK-WALLACE SHOW. she would say nothing when detectives visited her. She says Carr told her she would die in exactly the same way and on the very spot if she uttered' a word against him. ' - Mr. F. G. Fritts, Oneonta. N.

PRIZE FIGHTS TO GET STIFF POKE Governor Marshall Dons the ' Gloves and Strips Down For Action. FIGHTING GAME TO STOP SENDS IMPERATIVE ORDERS TO PROSECUTORS IN THE COUNTIES WHERE .THE MILLS ARE BEING PULLED OFF. (Special Correspondent.) . . Indianapolis, April 27. Governor Marshall evidently does not intend to monkey with anyone on the subject of prize fighting, but proposes "to go right to it." Yesterday he sent a letter to the prosecutor of St. Joseph county, that was right, to the point, and it. is understood that, others are to follow to other prosecutors in counties where priie fights have been held, notably Lake county, where it is. reported that fights have been held in Hammond. 1 r Gives Direct Orders. In his letter to the St. Joseph county official the governor calls attention to the fact that newspaper accounts have reached him' of prize fights that have been held at South Bend. He says he wants the prosecutor to investigate this report, even if he has to call on the author of the newspaper articles to give information, and if he finds that the law has been violated he is directed to prosecute the parties to the transaction. There was an air of directness in the letter of the governor that could not well be misunderstood. A letter of a similar nature was sent to the prosecutor of Marion county last Saturday and the sports in this city are looking for something to happen. - PALLADIUM WANT ADS.
