Portions of a skeleton Found.

ToTtlous III n sAflctOn round.
CHICAGO. July 25.-what seemed be-
yond a doubt TO be portions Of human
skeleton were found yesterday In the baso-
ment OF II. FL. Holmes building AT Sixty
third street. The bones were viewed by
number of detectives and workmen, all Of
whom pronounced them portions of n
human backbone and ribs Chief of Po-
lice Badenoch said that the find an
parently left little doubt that murder had
been committed in the gloomy castle. and
the coroner was notified to take charge of
the CHASTITY discovery.
The supposed bones were found by one
OF the gang of laborers who for several
days has been digging in tho dark base
ment Of Holmes house, where various bits
of evidence had been found that encour-
aged the police In their search for the re-
mains of the missing Minnie Williams
and her sister. The find was made at n
depth of two feet, near wall in the base
ment.
The bones were packed in damp earth.
with which had been mixed quicklimc.
Several bones were found, and with them
what resembled bit OF jaw with two
teeth attached. A portion of a Jacket with
large puff sleeve lay with the bones. and
on che cloth was bunch of hair which.
however, was so badly discolored that its
original shade could not be determined.
DIR. Charles North, TO whom the bones
were submitted for examination, pro-
nounced them portions of a human skele-
ton. The find was mysterious, as neither
the skull nor any of the leg bones were
found with the ribs and bits of vertebrm.
A small vial, containing n peculiar look
ing fluid, was found with the skeleton. but
its nature could not be determined with
tests and it was accordingly sent TO a
chemist for examination.
As the result of the finding Of the
skeleton, believed TO be that of little Ger

hold Joseph ID. Owens and Patrick Ouin-

HOLMES TALKS.
Concerning the Discoveries IN His
Castle at Chicago,
PORTIONS OF A HUMAN SKELETON
The Latest Find Unearthed by
Detectives.

PHILADELPHIA, July 25.--H. H. Holmes
was visited in his cell yesterday by his
counsel, William A. Shoemaker. For
two hours or more, Holmes spoke freely OF
the bones and other fragments of human
anatomy found In his ''castle" in Chicago
After the interview, Mr.. Shoemaker told
the substance of his clients statements as
follows:
"Holmes declared that the tuft of hui
man hair found In the chimney could not
have belonged TO Minnie Williams, for the
reason that the chimney was new one,
put In after the girls disappearance As
10 the bones, he said they were not those
of Gertrude Connor, Minnie Williams or
any OF the other persons whom he was
charged with having murdered"
Mr.. Shoemaker quoted Holmes as fol-
low: The police simply do not know
what they re talking about when they say
murdered so many persons and buried their
bones indiscriminately in every crook and
corner could find throughout the coun-
try. Quite while ago l made state
ment TO the Philadelphia authorities that
they were liable TO find human bones in
many different places all over the con-
tinent. i then frankly admitted that 1
had been engaged In an insurance swindle,
which did not pan out. One of these was
for $4,000 policy, and had to DO
abandoned while in an embryonic state,
because OF suspicious.
"Thc idea was to have the bodies of n
woman and boy found in their home, and
afterwapd the corpse of man with a
bullet In his head, TO make IL appear a case
Of murder and suicide. got bodies from
graveyard to represent the wife and son,
but the alleged husbands body had not
yet been procured when the insurance
agents learned of tho scheme, and the
bodies had TO be disposed of the best way
could, and / had them embalmed and
put in trunks, which were sent TO cold
storage warehouse. Before my prepara-
tions ooHid be completed however, the
manager Of the storage house notified me
10 take the trunks away or he would sell
tho contents. / did so, and the bodies
were buried IN separate places Where
they are the police must find out"
Holmes ridiouled the theory that the
subterranean tank found in the Chicago
establishment had been used for the secre-
ton Of his victims corpses, and said it had
served as nothiag more harmful than
vat for Illuminating oil used on the prem
iscs. The dumb waiter was accounted for
by the fact that during tho Worlds fair
there had been restaurant on one Of tho
upper floors Of the building
In the transfer of properties between
him and Minnie Williams, Holmes, added,
In which he had secured the Fort Worth
property, a note In the shape OF mort

supposed TO be her brother She mover
