A apeclal to the Star from Beaumont, Tex., says: John Welsh, a white man, who has been Impli cated by allegation by Mattle Bennett, the negro leader of the gang of robbera and murderers that haa been operating here. was brought to Beaumont today, having been arreated at Houston on the strength of the woman's confession. Welsh denies complicity In the murders. Hs was sn Iron molder employed In the foundry where Benjamin Pearson, ons of ths murde-ed men, worked. In jail today the Bennett woman talked freely to a reporter. She confessed every thing except direct murder and went fully into the details of the plan pursued by the gang. "Tha business hss been going on for six months," said shs. "Ths men would go out to ths saloons and street cor' ners snd find men that had money. They would bring them to my house, and I and the other women would give them beer with knockout drops In It Then the men would either beat 'em up - there and rob them or take them out Into the hobo yard. I don't know how many I have drugged too many to remember, and all of them were robbed. "I don't know what them folka that I've told the sheriff about will do to me." "I know I'm aate In Jail now, but If I ever get' out they will kill me. If any of 'em are alive and are out of the peniten tlary then."

A body thrown Into these swsmps stands small chanoe of being found. The alligators would devour them. It it is trus that fifty persona have disappeared from Beaumont thla may bo the solution of the mystery of ths missing bodies. Tbs case In aome of its features recalls ths Bender family murders in La Betts county, Kansas, thirty years sgo. The Benders for months entrapped travelera and killed them. The family consisted of a maa aad his wife and their grown daugh ter. When the murders wsre finally dls covered the Benders fled.
