ONE MORE VICTIM.
Chicago, July 29.-Another case of
mysterious disappearance which may
yet be charged to Holmes, was reported
20 the police to-day by neighbOrs of
DR.. Russler. who disappeared in 1892.
Dr. RuSsler for several months had Of
fees in the Holmes building, and he and
Holmes were often seen together. ap-
parently being intimate friends. Some
time in 1892, the date being a matter
of doubt, the physician dropped out OF
sight He had but few acQuaintances
and although the disappearance caused
some talk among the neighbOrs, little
attention was paid to it. The recent
startling discoveries In the Castle
have recalled the affair, and it is con-
sidered probable by some that the ply
sician may have been among Holmes
victims.
THINK HIM TOO SMART.
Baltimore .mlv 29.-Wilford Cole,
named in Little Rock, Ark, dispatch
as another possible victim, was not
Baltimorean. He however, visited this
city in July 1894. representing himself
as the agent of an immense Arkansas
lumber company. and induced several
business men, including George Brown
ing. TO invest sums ranging from $lOO 10
81 900. He returned to Arkansas but
shortly reappeared here, reporting the
cOmpany's business in a flourishing
condition In few days he again start
ed West. From Fort Worth, where he
/ is said to have fallen in with Holmes.
Cole wrote Browning that owing to the
big Debs railroad strike the lumber
company had been forced TO close up.
/ This was the last heard from him. In
October last Browning wrote TO wynn
cote. Pa. where Coles wife was staying
with her father. The letters were not
returned. For that reason Browning
thinks Cole received the letters.
"I hardly believe the man is dead,
said Browning. He was too smart to
fall a prey to Holmes.

EVIDENCE FOR THE NORTHWEST
PASSAGE.

Since the banks R. Tucker and Can
ton of New Bedford, Mass, arrived
from Hudson's Bay last year with
good catches of whalebone, that sold
at from s1.75 to $500 pound, interest
in whaling in that latitude has greatly
revived, and both vessels have been re-
fitted and sailed again for the bay.
with the intention of wintering there.
Previous to last year whalers from
only Scottish ports had been there for
several years. The belief is almost a
certainty that a northwest passage ex-
lists and that whales have been hunted
in the vicinity of the mouth of the
Mackenzie river have become shy and
have come through into the Hudson
Bay and on the coast of Greenland.
Irons have been found in the whales
killed on one side that were struck in
previous years on the other side
