MORE TRACES OF CRIME.
Another Find of Detectives in the
Holmes Castle.

Chicago, Aug. 1l-While investigating
the Holmes castle in company with Chi
cago officers yesterday Detective Geyer, OF
Philadelphia, found a hat pin, q few char
red small bones and some jet beads that
had evidently been worn on a wonIan's hat.
The find was brought 10 police head
quarters and examined. The articles
were inIbedded IN ashes in the pan OF an
old stowe The bones were separate and
imperfect, so that IL could not be deter
mined whether they were those of a hu-
man being, or OF some animal. The po-
lice do not attach much Importance to the
find, but are using every effort to get
further informstoin
From the fact that Pat Quinlan was
with them when they came to police head
quarters it was said that Quinlan had
directed the search and has been doing
everything in his power to aid the police.
One OF the officers said the hat pin and
Jet beads had been identified by Quinlan
as belonging TO Mrs. Julia Connor, and
when asked 20 verify or deny this, In
spector Fitzpstrick refused, saying their
investigation was not yet ended.

Sunday at Beautiful River View

The usual large crowd journeyed to River
View yesterday, many anticipating wit
Messing trip into CloudlaHd by Miss Ray
mond, but owing to railroad miscouReo-
tions the aerial party failed to reach the

people of the fact, but it did not, nor Old

of the three thousand excursioRists that
disported themselves over the beautiful place
and enjoyed the day in such manner
that well earned the title of ''the city's
