four years are resuming Iron is stn AZ pres
ent quotations. There have been several ad-
yances in wages during the week, chiefly

TIGHTENING TOLLS.
IMPORTANT WITNESS AGAINST
HOLMES FOUND.
His Name ls Hatch and lie Helped TO
Bury the Victims.

There is now little doubt that tho
Chicago police will convict II. H.
Holmes, alias Pratt, alias Gordon,
alias Howard, now in the Philadelphia
Jail, OF the murder Of OF least seven
persons They know the name OF tho
man who can hang Holmes by giving
his testimony, aud that man Is IN their
power. His name Is Hatch, alias
Bond alias Mascot, and lac Is now
serving a sentence Of ten years IN the
penitentiary at Little Rock, Ark, for
horse stealing. He is as close TO
Holmes through all his murder plans
as Janitor Quinlan and IL ready 10 tell
al ho knows He assisted IN secreting
the bodies Of the Williams sisters. He
will tell how they were murdered and
exactly how all their bodies were ham
died. He will also give full and ex-
phcit information concerning the
murder Of Pietzel and his two child
rem and Of Mrs. Julia Conners and her
daughter, P3arl
In shor., this man il the only living
person aside from Quinlan who can
tell the story Of the murders in the
charnel house Of Sixty-third and Wal
lace streets.
Aside from Quinlan ho is the only
man who can tell Of Holiness crimes
in a way that will bring forth evidence
Of Holiness guilt. The mention Of
his name by the police made jan
itor Quinlan turn pale and refuse
to talk further and confession from
! Quinlan is almost assured, but will
come too late, as Hatch is to be the
states witness. 1t has been arranged
to request his pardon from the gov
ernor Of Arkansas if he will give his
testimony with the understanding that
he will not DO prosecuted in Illinois
for completely in the Holmes frauds
and crimes. 1t is suspected that Attor-
ney William Capps, of Fort Worth,
Texas, gave the police of Chicago
some valuable information concerning
Hatch. In fact, it is definitely under
stood that Hatch was discovered il
the Little Rock penitentiary by At
torney Capps, who is in Chicago fol
the purpose of proving the fraudulent
transactions of Holmes with regard t
the property of the Williams girls
He declares that the Williams girl
we're both dead and that he could Sc
cure sufficient proof to civil court t,
secure a setting aside of the title 0
their property (now in a fictitiou
name, Lyman so that the heirs of tn
two girls could secure the property
But he refused absolutely to say wha
his evidence of the murder was.

son, governor of the state of Texas,
by virtue of the authority vested in
me by the constitution and laws there
of, do hereby urge the various officers

vent the commission of such offenseH
and cause offenders to be punished.
And all persons contemplating future

New York City is to have a great
Botanic Garden. At a meeting Of the
incorporators it was announced that
the fund of $780, 900 has been sub
scribed in full. This insures an ade-
quate Botanic Garden for the city, for
those engaged in the enterprise have
fulfilled the condition exaoted by the
Legislature on which $500, 900 is to
be furnished by the city for estab-
fishing such a garden, in addition to
$50 acres in Bronx Park for its site.
The land for the site has been pro-
visionally selected; it lies on both
sides of the Bronx River and is admir-
ably suited for the purpose in view.
The gentlemen who are engaged in
this work are lot satisfied with hay
ing raised the required $3.50, 600,
which will be used as an endowment
fund, but propose to go ahead and in
crease the amount to 100000. All

Gardens in this country there is but

Harper's Weekly observes: The
"honor system" of conducting college
examinations without other precau-
tion against cheating than an agree
ment of the students not to cheat is
generally known in the North as the
Princeton system. 1t has been in sue
cessful operation at Princeton for
number of years, and its entire sue
cess there has advertised it as a sys-
tenn of great merit But it is not
new thing in this country, nor did it
originate at Princeton. The Weekly
is informed that it has been in use at
the University of Virginia ever since
that university was founded by
Thomas Jefferson, and has succeeded
perfectly there. In the rare cases
where cheating has been practised in
spite of it the dishonest student was
warned by his fellows to leave college,
and has done so. 1t has also been in
use for ten years or more at the Van
derbilt University at Nashville, and
possibly in other Southern colleges.

"A mining Town Almost Destroyed
During a Heavy storm.
Adelaide, fourishing mining town

APPEAL TO SPENCER.
Atlanta Wants the Headquarters Of
the Southern.

atlanta Wants the headquarters or
the Southern.
A committee of citizens of Atlanta,
Ga, including delegates from the
Chamber of Commerce, met President
Spencer, of the Southern Railway
Company, at New York Wednesday
for the purpose of endeavoring to in
duce the railway company to remove
its headquarters to Atlanta.
The general views presented to Mr..
Spencer were that Atlanta is the logi-
cal centre of the system; that the COM
pany receives more business from that
centre than from any other point on
it's line and that as it is the most i'm
portant depot of the Southern system
it should be made the headquarters OF
the company.
The delegation was composed of s.
f. Woodson, president of the Chamber
of Commerce of Atlanta; Hon. Porter
King, mayor of Atlanta; H. H. Caba-
Miss, Captain Evan P. Howell, /. B.
Neal, R. D, Spalding, r. M. Farrar,
Ex-Governor II. 3. Bullock, j. ~.
Maddox and w. @. Sanders.
President Spencer, when seen by the
representative of the Associated Press
after the meeting, stated that he anC
EKice-President Andrews of the South
ern Railway Company, had heard tn,
views OF the delegation and the point
they made in favor of the change o
the company's headquarters from
Washington to Atlanta.
He declined to express any opinion
on the subject, saying that of cours
he could not ct this time say what &C
ton the company would take in tn
premises. The members of the com
mittee, he said, had stated the cas-
very forcibly and what they had sal,
would be carefully weighed and con
sidered by the company.
