Very Sensational Scenes In Court.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. 2S-H, II,
Holmes or Herman w. Mudgett, which,
he says. is his bsptismal name, was put
on trial In the court Of oyer and ter
miner to-day for the murder of B. r.
Pietzel in this city on September Q,
1894, and the developments of the first
day verified better, perhaps, than ever
before the force Of the axiom that truth
is stranger than fiction.
from the nature of the course and the
startling stories concerning it which
have given currency during the past
year, sensational revelations were
naturally to be expected when he. who
has coma to be regarded as the most
skillful and sudicious criminal of mod
ern times, was placed ON trial for his
life; yet what did occur in court so far
surpassed all expectations that the m os
vivid flights OF imagination could
scarcely have conceived the DAYS
events.
Protestations for O continuance oyer-
ruled; withdrawal of the LAWYERS who
had previously represented the prisoner.
In the face of threats by the Judge of
d1soarment; the appointment by the
court OF new counsel, and the refusal
by the prisoner to accept them as his
defenders; the declination of another
lawyer to serve, after being selected BY
Holmes, and finally the prisoner try-
ing his own case. This, not to speak of
sundry dramatic passages at arms be-
tween Holmes and the commemorative
prosecuting officer, is summary Of
what occurred.
Arrsigned against Holmes as the com.
monwealth prosecutors are District At

cial assistant, Thomas w. Barlow,

the opening OF court were VIM &. Shoes

She drew too much water to be doclred

informed that she must wait at New

plan were then taken up and adopted.
