A Plot to Defraud an Insurance Company
sG develops Startling Features.

Philadelphia, November 1s.-H. H.
Holmes. alias II. H. Howard, the man ar
rested in Boston charged with swindling
the Fidelity Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany of this city, will be brought here to
morrow, and he may BIZ charged with
murder. When the body of the supposed
Pitzel was found in room here Septem-
her 8. it was stretched fat upon the floor
and perfectly rigid. The coroner's ply
sician claims the body couldn't have
been brought here in trunk from an
other city, as stated by Holmes, because
it was stiff. and body once bent does
not become rigid. 1t showed no marks
of where it had been doubled up in
trunk. The theory IS advanced that the
body is really that of Pitzel. 1t is ar
guged that Pitzel and other conspirators
plotted to disfigure the former by burn
ing the face by son chemical and calling
IN a physician TO prescribe. for his IN jur-
es. body was then to be procured and
disfigured as Pitzels. Then it was to be
given out thai tine man died of his in ju-
ries. and it was trusted the physician
would give a certificate. 1t is supposed
that Pitzel and his fellow sconspirators
were to administer chloroform SO that he
would not feel the pain, and that he was
given an overdose and died, or that he
was purposely given too much while un-
conscious by mis- treacherous friends.
Another theory is that a man resem bling
Pitzel was decoyed to the room and
killed, and his face disfgured to render

Enthusiastic We1come-She is Encour-
aged Over the Success in Ohio.

Cleveland, Ohio, November 1S.-From
nearly every pulpit in the city today the
voice of earnest women was heard in the

almost without exception allowed their pull
pits to be occupied by delegates and visitors
to the convention of the W. G. L. U. The
congregations were large. In the afternoon
at Music hall, an evangelistic meeting was
conducted by Miss E. W. Greenwood. the
evangelistic superintendent of the National
W. O. T. o., and the annual sermon was
delivered by Rev. J.W. Bachford. president
of Wesleyan university, Delaware, ONO.
Fully 50U0 persons attended the services.
Immediately following the eyangellstlc
meeting gospel suffrage meeting was held.
1t was one of the most notable gatherings
of the convention. Rev. Anna Shaw of
Boston. who preuched in the Unity church
this morning presided. The centre of at
traction was Susan B. Anthony, president
of the National Woman Stuff rage associa-
ton. When Miss Anthony was introduced
the immense audience rose to its feet and
greeted her with long continued applause
and waving of handkerchiefs. She predicted
the overthrow of the monster intemperance
when the ballot is put in the hands of the
mothers, wives and daughters of the land.
The speaker predicted univ yersal suffrage
was bound to come, and pointed with pride
to the action of the last Ohio legislature in
giving to women the right to vote on educa-
tional matters. Referring to the recent de-
feat of the woman suffrage movement in
New York and Kansas. Miss Anthony said
that while the cause has been lost in both
states. it meant simply more work on the
same line. Rev. Joseph Cook of Boston.
spoke b1iefiy, advocating universal suffrage,
compulsory voting and educational qualif-
cations.

too small to hold half of the crowd which

criminally assault ed, is only eight years
old and public sympathy has bee2 greatly
aroused to the affair. She has not been sin

Many Perished Beneath the Falling
WaIls-The Damage Is Widespread and
eople are Terror Stricken-King
Humbert Has Sent Relief.
Rome, November l8.-Reports of disasters
caused by the earthquakes in southern
Italy are still meagre. They suffice to show
a great loss of life. Prooopo, village OF
1200 inhabitants, in the Reggie Di Calibr1a,
has been obliterated and virtually all the
buildings thrown into ruins. The number
of deaths is not known. In one church
forty-seven persons were buried alive under
the fallen walls. The last authoritative re-
port was that the list of dead is well above
sixty.
In another village of the same province.
eight persons were killed outright by falling
buildings. The damage to property is
enormous. Troops and officials are going to
the help of the suffering districts. King
Humbert sent several donations from his
private purse.
IN OTHER DISTRICTS.
The province of Regigo di Calibria suf-
fered most from earthquakes and several
di Calibira were shaken severely. In
Tripini twenty buildings were laid in ruins
and several persons killed. I'm Miletoa also
Catanzal o. many were injured. school
house was shaken to the ground, but the
teachers and pupils es I'd a few minutes
before the fall. At ten tnis evening the re-
ports of deaths, injuries and the destruction
of buildings are received from seventeen
commanes. In Bagnara seven persons were
killed outright. In Appido Mamert, four.
in Santa Eupetmia, eight. Scores of others
we're injured in these towns. Provisions are
sent to the south of Italy today and relief
work is organizing rapidly. Premier Cripsi
sent the project of Bagnaria and headmen
of several smaller towns large gifts of
money.
In Sicily telegraphic communication is re-
stored. The people of Messina still fear to
return to their houses and the majority are
encamped in open spaces, railway carriages
and the vessels in the harDor. Electric
lights are set to replace the lighthouse
which was destroyed. torpedo boat
patrols the channel in Milisso. A sharp
shock was felt today and many walls were
cracked but nobody WAS killed.
