PITEZEL MURDERS.
The Bereft Mother Identifies the
Bodies of Her Children.
ToRONTos CASE AGAINST HOLMES

Chicago Furnishes Another Sensation in
the Discovery of Charred Bones, Believed
60 be Those of Minnie Williams, in a
House Formerly Occupied by Holmes.
TORONTO, Ont, July 20. -Yestcrday Mrs.
Pitezel identified the bodies of the two
children found Monday night in the cellar
on st. Vincent street as those of her girls,
Alice and Nellie. The latter she identi-
fed by her hair and the former by a pecu-
liarity of her upper front teeth. She was
not allowed to see any other parts of the
bodies, as both were in such an advanced
stage of decomposition that it was thought
the shock would derange her. As it was,
Mrs. Pitezel broke down completely and
Bobbed and cried throughout the trying
ordeal and long afterward. Detectives
Geyer, Of Philadelphia, and Cuddy, of the
local staff, and the doctors are perfectly
satisfied with the identification.
The case which the Canadian authori-
ties now have against Holmes is very com
plete, and is much stronger than that
made out against him in Philadelphia,
which fact leads "a great many here to be
lieve that the prisoner will certainly be
e%xtradited. Summed up, this is the case;
lAOAlAAG6 hoD bCAA AAoNN ACAh VIZ AANN
States to this city with the children. His
identity was established at the Palmer
house, and that of the children at the AL
bion. Then both murderer and victims
were recognized at the very scene of the
crime, not by one witness, but by several.
An immediate motive for committing
the deed is also clearly shown, being due
to the fact that Mrs. Pitezel was in the
city and might at any moment meet the
children on the street. Again, Holmes
borrowed a spade on the last day that the
girls were seen alive at the cottage or any
where else, giving as his reason for doing
so that he wished to make a bin for some
potatoes, which statement was shown to
be palpably false. All this, and his going
away the next day are strong %corrobora-
tive facts from which Holmes will find it
hard to escape. The finding of the toy be-
longing to the little girls in the house and
their partially burnt clothing is also an
other link in the chain.

A Freight Thler,s confes.ion.

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, July 20.-The Labar
family, husband, wife and children, and
Levi Sickles, arrested for breaking into
freight cars of the Wilkesbarre and East
ern railroad and stealing merchandise,
have been held for trial at court. Robert
Labar, one Of the defendants, testified
that the work of breaking into cars had
been going on for nearly a year. The con-
ductor of one of the cars, he alleges, told
him on several occasions to go into the
produce car and get meats The meat
was then carried to the caboose and
cooked. The crew were also in the habit
of tapping beer kegs and drinking all the
beer they wanted. The railroad company
claims to have lost goods to the value of
s.. DOC.

o,nonnen Easily Defeats Woods.

MONTREAL, July 2O.-Great interest was
manifested in the battle between Steve
O'Donnell, Champion Corbett's sparring
partner, and Billy Woods, of Denver, in
the Crystal Rink last night. The big au-
ditorium was crowded. Both O'Donnell
and Woods were arrested during the af-
ternoon at the instance of the Citizens
League, but were bailed out by friends.
No attempt was made to stop the fight,
which was a one sided affair. In the
twelfth round Woods could hardly hold
his hands up and hung around O'Don-
nell's neck to save himself from punish
ment. In the fifteenth O'Donnen gave
Woods a smash which sent him down like
a log, and he was carried from the ring at
the expiration of the ten seconds.

A CHICAGO
The Charred Bones of Minnie Williams
Found in a Stove.


CHICAGO, July 2O.-Another appalling
crime will be laid at the door of H. H,
Holmes, the notorious insurance swim
dler and the alleged murderer of the Pite-
zels. That Minnie Williams, of Fort
Worth, Tex, met her death at the hands
of Holmes there is scarcely a doubt. That
she died in this city in a violent manner
has been proven almost conclusively.
Late last night the police found in a
stove in the three story brick building at
No. 7O1 Sixty-third street, which was built
by Holmes, and in which both he IL the
williams girl lived, a quantity of charred
bones, buttons known to have been on a
dress owned by Minnie Williams, and a
partly melted portion of a watch chain,
which was positively identified as having
been the property of the girl,
All of the ashes and debris removed
from the stove were carefully preserved
and taken to the police station, where q
more careful examination will be made of
them.
The police are now of the opinion that
not only Minnie Williams, but her younger
sister Anna and the boy Howard Pitezel
met death in this house. This morning at
6 o'clock they started to renew the search
of the house, beginning with the buse-
ment, which is being dug up. They are of
the opinion that they will find either the
body of Anna Williams or thato of Howard
Pitezel before they have concluded their
work

IRON MOUNTAIN, Mich, July 2O.-The
imprisoned miners at the Pewabic mine
were released about midnight, and not
one of them was injured. The escape is
considered the most remarkable one in
the history Of mining. The men suffered
no inconvenience. They heard the first
crash of the breaking timbers and made
their escape to a dry drift on the first level
before the cave in occurred. The impris-
oned men were without food, but plenty
of fresh air was pumped down into the
chamber in which they We're caught.

of walnuts and roasting of apples.
Then the cabin floor was cleared for
