 Chicago, Nov. M.-H. H. Holmes, now under arrest in Philadelphia, is charged with being the cause of the mysterious disappearance of a third woman during his operations in Chi cago. That person Is Miss Kate Dur kee and she is said to have had con siderable property. A year ago Holmes creditors made desperate effort to find out who and where Miss Durkee was. It was supposed at that time that she was an accomplice of Holmes and that property illegally ob- tained was being transferred in her name. Suddenly Kate Durkee dropped from sight and. like the Williams sisters,s has left no trace behind. George B. Chamberlain, proprietor of a mercantile agency, who represents q number of Holmes' creditors, believes that Miss Durkee was murdered.
 Kate Durlree was the name signed to mortgage on some real estate of considerable value and the mortgage was turned over to Chamberlain for the benefit of creditors. Shortly after the mortgage was given to Holmes. at his request, to have clerical error cor rected, but the document was never re- turned. At this time the Misses Wil-

KENTUCKY WOMEN PRAISED
THEIR ACTIONS ARE ENDORSED IN u NEGOTIATIONS.


 The women's Christian Temperance Union
 Disapproves of Football and all Inter-
 Collegiate Athleticz-womsn to stand by
 Women.
 Cleveland, Nov. a.--The W. c. T. U. convention was closed tonight with a meeting in Music Hall under the aus, pices of the federated unions of this city. Speeches were made by Madame E. Barakar of Syria, Helen M. Barker, Chicago, Miss Alderman, Australia, Madame Chica Sakarai, Japan, Mrs. Lida Merriweather, Pennsylvania, and Susan B. Anthony. The convention has been the most successful in the his- tory of the union and the delegates are loud in their praise of the hospi- tality of Cleveland temperance women. Next years convention will probably be held in Baltimore, although Kan sas City is formidable applicant. The decision rests with the executive com mittee.
 Among the resolutions adopted were the following:
 Resolved, That we look with alarm at the increasing dissertation of the Sabbath and the demands of the liquor traffic for the open Sunday saloon and call upon the executives of the law and others in authority, as well as moral and religious people, to unite in the enforcement of such laws as do exist and to prevent further encroachments of this day of rest
 We resolve in favor of combined and persistent efforts for securing the en- franchisement of women.
 Resolved, That the National W. c. T. U. endorses with pride the heroic ac- tion of Kentucky women in their de- termined overthrow of impurity in high places. We recommend that each state organ instruct its union to en- deavor to secure by law the appoint ment of committee of men and women who shall pass upon the character and tendency of all public spectacles. We deprecate the social amusements Of card playing, theater-gotng and pro- miscuous dancing.
 We disapprove of such exercises of such games of football as require the presence of physician as being 1n- furious to physical we'll being and bru- talizing in their moral tendency. We protest against the custom of inter collegiate athletics as demoralizing to l the legitimate work of college life and calculated to- encourage the spirtt~o gambling. While friendly to all insti. tutions having for their object the res toration of the drunkard, we do not recognize in them 8 cure for the sa- loon evil. We do not encourage local unions to adopt this work as any solu- tion of the temperance problem so long as the licensed saloon exists. We declare that the employer and the em- ployed should unitedly decide what Is best for the enterprises which can suc- ceed only by their united efforts, but we strongly urge that on these boards women should be represented. Resolved, That in order to hasten the complete overthrow of the monster iniquity, the liquor system, we rejoice the near approach of the time when we shall be able to reinforce our prayers and moral support by your ballots, and hereby pledge them to the home protection party. by whatsoever name called. That as women we propose to stand by women to defend their good name and seek the advancement of their interests. t"Hh
