AN AWFUL DISCOVERY.
The Bodies of Two Girls Found In
ID Cellar.

TORONTO, July l5.-The bodies Of Eta,
Alice. and Nettie Pietze, the missing
daughters of Benjamin F. Pietze. were
found by Detectives Cuddy, Of Toronto,
and Geyer, OF Philadelphia, this afternoon
buried in the cellar Of the house No. 49,
st. Vincent street.
H. II. Holmes, now under arrest at
Philadelphia is believed to have deliber-
ately murdered the two girls after he had
first murdered their father in Philadelphia
and their brother In Detroit.
Inquiries begun by the police led 10 the
conviction that Holmes rented the house
in question. and a search was made by
the officers. A photograph OF Holmes was
shown the owner of the house, and with
out hesitation he identified il "a that Of
the man who had rented from him last
October. and who. after a very short stay,
had departed. When they reached the Gel
lar il appeared TO the detectives that
something had disturbed the cellar floor.
and arming themselves with shovels they
began TO dig.
A short distance below the surface they
came across the arm and portion of the
head Of one of the murdered girls, and
further work soon revealed the bodies Of
the two victims.
They had lain there in all probability
since last October.
