he climbed up to cross the track to a
platform on the other side. He was too

IMPORTANT TESTIMONY.
Mrs. Holmes VIII Tell All She Knows
About Her Husband.

CINCINNATI, o., July %. "A Commercial
Gazette special from Indiana polls, Ind. =,
says: Mrs. Holmes, the wife of the accused
murderer and insurance swindler, left
here for Philadelphia yesterday Mt the
instance of the prosecuting attorney of
that city. Mrs. Holmes herself would
not talk, but her most intimate friend,
TO whom she confided her purpose, did
talk last night.
This person says Mrs. Hol mes has for
saken her husband. This person was told
by Mrs. Holmes that the assertion of
Holmes that he was not in Toronto, but
was absent with his wife when the
Pietzel children disappeared is not true,
that wherever Holmes was at that time
he was not with Mrs. Holmes. Moreover,
Mrs. Holmes says she was with Holmes
in Chicago at the time Miss Williams dis
appeared. This intimate friend of Mrs.
Holmes believes she will tell all she
knows about her husband, and be a
strong witness in prosecuting him.

Do WE WANT wAax


If the country is to believe the Wash
ington correspondent of the Chicago
Times the conclusion is, the admins.
tration at Washington is eager for war.
he says that if John Bull does not
want to get into row with Uncle Sam
1t will lie necessary for John to walk
very straight in all his comines and
goings on the American continent
But read what the Times has TO sny
on the subject:
cit is well known to those persona
who are acquainted with the inner
connsels of the administration that
both President Cleveland and Secre
tary Gresham long ago decided not to
put up with any foolishness on Eng
lands part in American affairs. Per.
maps 1t is no injustice to those gentle
men to say that nothing would please
Them better than an opportunity and
pretext sufficiently wide and plausible
Tor engaging IN scrap of sharp
diplomatic sort with Johnnie Bull, Ii
ls to the credit of the President and
AIS Secretary of State that amid all
tho lingoiem with which they have
been surrounded they have not yielded
either to popular clhmor or to political
temptation. The simple truth about
the matter is That foreign complica.
fion of really serious and Threatening
nature would De very welcome to this
administration. If such conplca
lion presents itself, with "A good case
Tor the American end of it, Cleveland
and Gresham will embrace it with
eager enthusiasm. They are simply
waiting for chance. They do not
expect to get such opportunity it, the
Nicaraguan matter. They may get it
before the Venezuelan difficulty Is
settled up"
The Richmond Dispatch from which
the above is taken adds the following:
There is truth in these remarks. 1t
may be accepted as settled fact that
any administration is very apt to he
III favor OF the next war" Whoever
expects to find Mr. Cleyaland's Admin
lstratlon otherwise will be likely TO find
himself mistaken"
This will be news TO verv mary peo.
pie, who, up to the present time, had
not thought the administration yery

Win anybody or any thing? 1t Is true,
war would bring activity in the work
chops OF the country; the nayy.yards
ana apsenals, and shipynrds would be
made busy thereby, and it would 20
very far towards bringing the sections
together.
HE F1RoISIAN, however, is of the
opinion that the people of this coup.
try do not want war; that President
Cleveland does not desire it. But The

of the United States will not tolerate
