SAVANNAH PUBLIC BUILDING.
Probabilities Are That Miles & Dradt
VIII Do the work.

Washington. ID. c.. Aug. 29.-Although
the Miles & Bradt contract for the COM
pletion of the Savannah public building
has not been formally signed. sealed and
delivered. 1t is practically settled that
Secretary Carlisle viii approve their bid.
The documents in the case are being
prepared in the supervising architects Of
flee to-day. and they will probably be laid
before the secretary before the close OF
the present week.
Acting Supervising Architect Hamilton,
in reply to an enquiry to-day from the cor
respondent OF the Morning News. said
Messrs. Miles & Bradt have been virtual
ly settled upon to do the work. The de-
partment would much rather construct
the building OF marble. but after examin-
ing the appropriation available IL was
deemed impossible to carry out that idea.
The original appropriation for the en-
tire building was 100000.
BY special act Of congress 100000 was
added; that brought the total amount Up
to 100000. Thus far, Sl5lOO0 has been cx-
pended, leaving a balance Of S246.00O with
which to complete the superstructure.
also the Interior finishing, plumbing, heat
ing and approaches. The superstructure.
under Miles & Bradts bid, will cost sll7.-
600. leaving balance of $4,000 to make
the building habitable.
In making the office estimates for the
superstructure, il was thought that the
work could be done for about Sl26OO0. II
is probable that II the marble bid had
been up ten or fifteen thousand dollars
beyond the estimate. the Secretary Of the
Treasury might have stretched a point to
use marble In conformit with the wishes
of the citizens of Savannah. AS the lowest
bid for marble structure was Sl92, 800 the
secretary could not afford to put up a
marble building, as only 600 would be
left for the interior finishing etc.
Under the circumstances, the building
will be constructed In accordance with the
specifications as approved, and Messrs.
Miles & Bradt will do the work.
The question was raised whether the
building could be constructed Of marble
when the plans and Specifications call for
brick and sandstone. The architect says
he would not hesitate 20 use marble had
the bids been sufficiently low to keep
within the appropriation.

HOWARD PIETzEL's FEET.
They Were burned, But Not Destroy
ed-Found by Boys.

Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 29.-Boys dig
ging under the Holmes house, in an un-
finished portion Of the cellar. have found
the two feet of Howard Pietzel. They had
been burned, but not destroyed. and were
evidently too bulky TO put into the chim-
ney hole. With the feet was found bur
led a five quart can. There was some
coal oil in it. All Of the witnesses were
before the coroner and the grand jury
to-day. The grand jury will return an IN
dictment against Holmes.
Philadelphia, Aug. 29.-Lawyer W. A.
Shoemaker had another long conference in
Moyamensing prison with his client, the
alleged wholesale murderer, H. H.
Holmes. during which the prisoner pro-
tested his innocence Of completely in the
killing of Howard Fitzel whose bones
are said to have been found in a dwelling
near Indianapolis.
Holmes states that he Is almost certain
that the fragments of human bones un-
earthed by the detectives are those of
the missing lad, but declares that the boy
was murdered by the mysterious Hatch.
He further positively asserts that Hatch
killed both of the other Pitzel children.
When Detective Geyer returned from the
west he called upon Holmes and was furn-
ished with a clue that led him to India
napolis.
Holmes appeared TO De Wiling ana anN-
ious to aid the detective in locating How
ard Pitzel and gave Geyer valuable infor-
nation that led to the finding Of the bones.
Mr.. Shoemaker says that his client can
prove beyond the shadow of doubt that
he could not possibly have killed young
Howard. He admits that he was in Indi-
annapolis with the boy, but that Howard
was turned over to the care of Hatch,
and that he CHolmes) was not in India
napolis at the time the crime is said to
have been committed. Holmes said that
he had met Hatch in Chicago and that
he was given to believe that Howard
and Miss Williams had gone to Buffalo.
No steps have been taken by the district
attorney in reference TO the new develop
ments, and perhaps nothing will be done
until Detective Geyer returns.

FIRST CAMPAIGN DIFFICULTY.
An Encounter at Augusta Between
Newspaper Men.

Guilty growing out of the campaign oc-
CURED to-day between Mr.. Oswell r.
Eve, lately editor of the Evening News.
and Mr.. Cartledge, reporter for the Trib-
une, the local populist organ.
A few days ago the Evening Herald
published an interview with Mr.. Cart
ledge, in which he was quoted as saying
that certain men in Augusta We're about
to call an Indignation meeting over the
alleged registration frauds. The men
whose names were given denied any such
intention. Mr.. Cartledge published a
card denying that he had been correctly
quoted.
Mr.. Eve, who was present when the
Herald reporter interviewed Cartledge
published d card declaring that Cart
ledge did say just what the Herald pub
lished, and that he had been accurately
reported.
To-day Eve and Cartledge met for the
first time since the publication of the
card the day before.
In the meantime reports had been car
ried to the two men as to what each
said about the others card, and what
he intended to do about it when they
met.
AS a result, when the two met a fight
ensued. Neither was hurt much, as they
were quickly separated, but Mr.. Cart
ledge had the worst Of it. The affair
is generally regretted.
The electric cars ran through to Lake
Olmstead tonight for the first time since
the new extension, and the event was
celebrated by a dance at the lake, given
by the Oglethorpe Infantry.

COrOner's Jury's Action in the Ire
land Building Case.
New York, Aug. 29.-The coroner's jury
which has been investigating the col
lapse of the Ireland building, corner Of
West Broadway and West Third streets,
three weeks ago, were to-day charged
by the coroner and retired at 11:45 o'clock
a. m. to consider their verdict.
The coroner concluded his charge as
follows: "The question for you to de-
eide is, what was the primary cause,
and could il have been avoided and the
lives of these men saved? If it could
have been, then 1t is your duty to desig-
nate by name every person who you may
deem culpable of either negligence, care
lessness, incompetency, or indifference"
The Jury came in at 6.15 o'clock this
afternoon and held the following per-
sons responsible for the death Of those
who were killed in the collapse OF the
building: John Parker, Thomas Walker,
Charles X. Behrens, Thomas Murray,
Edward j. Youdale and Dennis A. Buck
ley. Joseph Guider and John 4. Selleek
were eXonerated by the jury.
The collapse. the jury says, was caused
by insufficient foundation, and that the
middle column was weakened by being
above the old cistern. The work Of the
old building was defective.
