WIFE-MURDERER CONFESSES
DIABOLICAL CLEVERNESS REVEALED Nev; York, January 27. Warren Lincoln modified his. recent confession of wife murder many times, until he at last made a clean breast of the crime, admitting that lie first shot his wife and then killed Byron Shoup in January of last year. Ho burned the bodies, but says that he debated long what to Jo with the heads. Finally he cast a hollow concrete block and placed the Leads inside. sealed it up. and gave it -to the garbage man. The police hurriedly searched the city dump, and found the block, as Lincoln described it, and inside were human remains. For diabolical cleverness in concealing all evidences of the crime the police regard Lincoln's work as one of the most remarkable on record. —Sydney “Sun’ Cable.
