lHE HOLMES MYSTERIES
A Fort Worth Lawyer Who Has
Proofs" Of the Murders
OF MINNIE AND ANNIE WILLIAMS.

Says He VIII Produce One Of the Mur-
derers, who VIII Turn states Evidence.
holmes Philadelphia Lawyer Declares
His Client Innocent of Murder.
CHICAGO, July 91.-Three warrants for
the arrest of H. H. Holmes and Patrick
Quinlan are now hanging fire. They are
taken out solely for the reason that it Is
the desire of the complainant to give the
police all of the leeway possible before
forcing them to act ms TO Quinlan. An inn
portant witness against Holmes and
Quinlan has been found in "a mysterious
bricklayer who built a fire box in the
castle, which, he thinks, might have been
pscd as u resort for dead bodies, and who
told his story.
Lawyer William Cappa, the Fort Worth
attorney, who is here at the instance of
the heirs of Minnie Williams, stated to-
day that he is prepared to prove the muir
der Of Minnie and Annie Williams. He
insists that it was lone by Holmes, Quin-
Ian and another man, whose identity he
refuses to reveal. This man has been To-
Gated by a detective, whom the heirs of
the Williams girls put upon the case eight
months ago. "He is ready to confess,
said Mr.. Cappa, ''on condition that the
police guarantee him immunity from pun
lshment. My detective says the man knows
that the girls were killed in the Sixty
third street house, and that he knows
when they were buried"
A private account book kept by Holmes
has been discovered In "A CRATE at the Sixty
third street house. The boob was found
with a bundle of letters addressed by va
rious women to Holmes, which had evi
IDENTIFY been placed there for burning. The
accounts, which date back to May l, 1885
show dealings with various people, and al
entry regarding insurance shows the ex
istence of insurance deals as early as 1886
A mysterious Dora is mentioned as the
recipient of numerous small sums, which
are carefully recorded, and the minutes OF
the Englewood company are also given
with the election of directors and the
transaction of other business.

Declares Holmes Is Innocent Of Murder

PHILADELPHIA, July 81.-It is known
that H. H. Holmes has not at any previous
time fully confided in his counsel, and it
was learned yesterday that the lawyers had
threatened to withdraw from the case if
Holmes did not make a full breast of
his criminal career. Holmes, 1t is under
stood, pleaded with Attorney Shoemaker
not to desert him, gave his life history in
detail to his counsel. The history, Mr..
Shoemaker says, fills 400 pages of closely
type written matter. Since the last con-
ference between the prisoner and his coun-
sci Mr.. Shoemaker declares emphatically
that his honest conviction is that Holmes
never committed murder In his life.

in the right thigh and in the left groin,
with bullets from two revolvers, by Leo
poldo ~Santoniello, % years old, and his
cousin, Gactano Torino. 30 years old. All
of the oombatants are bakers, and the
shooting resulted from a quarrel over a
game Of ''tocco." Torino and Santon-
iello were promptly arrested, but the Of
hcers were unable to control the crowd of
excited foreigners, who in their excite
ment wanted to lynch the prisoners.
After a hard struggle fifteen policemen
managed to get the prisoners to the sta
ton. Pagano's death is momentarily ex-
Dected.

ADIEU.

After spending in the newspaper bust
ness 80 years of my life, 81 of them in
Shenandoah, 1 now leave it and r~elinquish
my interest in the publication of the daily
and weekly HERALD. Only those who
have become welded to a following
through lifelong attention can appreciate
my feelings in bidding farewell to jour
nalism-a farewell that may be a long one,
n perhaps lasting. 1 first started in the
newspaper business when IA years of age
n continued at it with the exception of
the time I gave service in the civil war
(from 1861 to 1869 until the present day.
a reflection upon the lapse of time IN
volved in this period will satisfy anyone
thai the ties which nave bound me to the
profession are indeed firmly welded and an
almost superhuman effort is reou%qPsg9Srft 70

do so, however, with the determination
that should it be my good fortune to re-
cuperate my health l shall be in the jour
nalistic field again.
1 take this opportunity to say that news
paper men are not supernatural, as many
people suppose, but human, and are as
liable to err as the majority of mankind.
Consequently 1 nave no doubt made mis-.
takes at times, but I assure those whose
eyes may fall upon this that 1 have at all
tines directed my energies and inauencein
the channels which 1 considered were for
the best Interests of Shenandoah and its
people and time following my withdrawal
alone will tell whether in many of my
undertakings my judgment was at fault, or
those who opposed my views could not see
far enough, Be that as it may, 1 give as
surance that 1 leave my field oflabor with
heartfelt wishes that Shenandoah and heI
people may always prosper and that all
contrary winds I may have foretold will be
success sfully quelled. My most earnest
wish is that any displeasure my opinions
may have caused will cease with my retire
ment and that those who may have felt
hurt will not harbor ill-will against any
who were either directly or indirectly con
nected with me in the publication of my
paper. This is but a just request.
In conclusion, l wish TO say that tn,
gentlemen who succeed me in the publica
ton of the HERALD are practical men il
the profession. They have served many
years on the HERALD and one of them IL
a graduate of the paper. / feel confdenr
that they will succeed and would urge tn,

months by Messrs. Charles S. Lee, general
pas enger agent of the Lehigh Valley
Railroad; @. G. Hancock, general passen-

connected with the real estate department
of the Philadelphia s. Reading Coal &
Iron Company, for kind offers made us.
There are many others to whom we are in
debted for acts of kindness during our

and they suddenly dropped to a very
unusual low degree this morning for this

had but seven passengers during the entire
