A HUMAN MONSTER.
Crime After Crime Is Now
Being Charged to Holmes.
The. Chicago Police Say That Half
Has Not Yet Been Told.
Philadelphia Will Send Him Wherever Evidence
is Strongest Against Him.

Chicago, July 26.-The energies of the
case were devoted this morning, to an in
quiry into the fate of Miss Emeline Cigrand
of Lafayette, Ind who is supposed to be
the latest victim
Doctors b. j. and p. J. Cigrand second
cousins of the girl, were closeted with
Chief Badenooh and Inspector Fitzpatrick
all the morning. They told how their
cousin went to work for Holmes as n
stenographer and how she was afterward
believed TO have married a man named
Robert E. Phelps, who was interested in
a fake copying business down town, of
which Holmes was the head. A careful
search of the marriage records made by
the clerk fails to show any record Of such
a marriage in Cook county.
1t is the belief of the Cigrand brothers
that Miss Cigrand was murdered by
Homes apd that Robert f. Phelps was no
other THAI the swindier under an alias.
Certainly no such person was ever heard
of in connection with the business down
town except through Holmes himself.
The police claim that still another girl
is missing, but refuse to tell her name.
they admit that she Is Chicago girl, but
beyond this they will say nothing
Chief Badenoch said that the case was
growing more horrible and mysterious
| every hour, and he WAS sure Holmes had
| committed more murders than the world
had yet been apprised of

TERRIBLE TALE
OF the Murder Of Mrs. Connor by Holmes at
Chicago.

Chicago, July 26-Col. Jonathan L..
Belknap, a great uncle of Wilmette, wife
of Holmes, who resided for many years at
Big Foot Prairie, H., made statement
to the effect that Mrs. Julia l.. Connor
was killed by Holmes In the Englewood
building, four years and half ago Her
room was a small dark one adjoining q
dark bath room.
Col. Belknap's theory is that Holmes
entered the womans room by secret door
from the bath room, killed her by turn
ing on the gas, carried her body to the
bath tub, cut it In pieces and fed the parts
to the furnace-like fire in q stove. When
the process of cremation was complete,
Holmes carried the bones and ashes to the
collar and buried them In quicklime.
Col. Belknap was one of the men whom
Holmes tried to victimize. Holmes got a
loan of $1,000, which was never repaid.
The colonel states that he and his wife
spent Christmas with Holmes and Mrs
Connor he helped Holmes carry the stove
through the secret door into the bath
room, adjoining Mrs. Connor's room, and
the same night Mrs. Connor disappeared
