The detectives found today two tool
chests in one of which was a hammer
spotted and stained. Ii was believed by
some Of the officers that the spots were
bioodstalns. and an analysis was ordered.
a number Of bones were found in the
basement today. and examined by Robin
son He pronounced them parts OF hu-
man bodies. IL was thought an entire
skeleton had been found. but examina-
ton showed that the most Of the
bones were from the butcher shop.
The mixture OF human bones and
butcher shop refuse is a peculiar
ity OF several finds that puzzles the
police. After further examination the
police decided that the bones are proba-
bly, those of Miss Cigrande. the Indiana
girl, instead of the skeleton of Mrs. Con-
ner. II had been sold 10 the Hahn Medi-
cal college by Holmes, the police claim.
The Search of the Holmes building was
prosecuted today on the information
given 10 the police by II. s. ChappeH. Inc
machinist who says he articuiated the
skeletons of three supposed victims OF
Holmes Chappell told the police that
Holmes had two watts in the cellar. One.
he said, was in the southwest corner. and
the other in the southeast corner or the
rear cellar. They had been since walled
up he said. One of the watts, according
TO ChappelPs statements, was used as
vessel in which the flesh was eaten from
the bones by the use of acids The other
was for the purpose of bleaching the
bones.
Twelve laborers worked all day digging
out the two corners designated by Chap
pell, and were about to give up the search
as unsuccessful when one OF the men at
work on the southeast corner struck MS
spade against something which gave forth
a metallic sound. The metal object proved
TO he huge tank in the shape OF a boil
er II was located just outside the south
cellar wall, and its top was four feet from
the ground surface Work tonight was
stopped before the tank was fully IN
covered, but apparently it is eight Feet
long and three feet in diameter. Except
for the discovery of the tank, the search
in the basement was fruitiess. Above
the stairs the search was almost as bar
ren of results as that made in the cellar
Although the police authorities believe
that their diggings and searchings at the
Holmes building in Englewood nave oeen
rewarded by a large amount or evidence
Of crimes committed by Holmes many
here believe that since his arrest many
things have been taken away from the
place This belief receives a large meas
ure of confirmation by story related by
T. F. Foley a driver for an express COM
pany. One day last April Pat Qulnian
called at the office, Foley says. and said
he wanted some moving done Foley was
ordered TO take a wagon to the Holmes
building When the wagon arrived GUM
