Holmes Will be Given Up to
Authorities in Toronto.
Two Months at Least are Required
for His ExraditiOn.

The English Crown Attorneys Curry and
Dcwart Of Toronto Can, had Il consultation
rs to what should be done in view Of the
findings of the cOroner's inquest, and as a
result of their talk Detective Cuddy swOre
out two separate warrants, charging Holmes
with the murder of the two PiteHel girls. The
warrants were placed in the hands Of Detec-
tive Inspector Stark, who ut once took the
necessary proceedings to have Holmes en-
tradted.
Owing to the verdict of the Toronto, Can,

murder Of the two Pietzel children, the
chances are now almost beyond doubt that
Holmes will be taken to Canada to stand
trial for the murder 1t has been the inten-

pha. to have Holmes tried in any city where
the evidence would warrant the most speedy
conviction on the charge of murder. II is
stated that it will require at least two months
to effect the extradltion of the accused.
Atty. Shoemaker, who represents Holmes,
declared that his client was not afraid to
face any charge the Canadian authorities
had to make. 1.-The district Attorney said
he, "should proceed slowly in this matter, or
the result will be that he will not have

Unaccountablr Disappearance of
MrS.E.T Gardiner of Arcadia, NeD.

Mrs. l.. 7. Gardiner OF Arcadia, Neb.,
came to Boston with Il delegation OF Chris
tian Endeavorers, and has never been seen
since by her husband, friends or relatives.
she is supposed to be dead, as she wrote to
her husband that she was dying, and another
woman finished the note by saying that Mrs.
Gardiner was dead. That dreary letter went
back to that lonely home, in the little Ne
braska town.
No city in the world is more strict regard
ing its registry of births. deaths, ETC., than
Boston, but thorough examination of the
records fails TO bring to light any notice of
the death of Mrs. Gardiner. In fact, there Is
only one record of II death Of a person bear
ins Il name in any way similar to Gardiner
since January l. That is the record of the
demise of Mr. Mary Gardner Of l6 Hanson
street on March 2S last. SO the assumption
is that either she has been buried under an
assumed name or else she is still in good
health and on tn earth, and for some rea-
son as vet unknown she wrote the dismal
letter to her husband telling of her antici-
pated early demise
NJ s. Gardiner is about 35 years of age, and
until she left Arcadia for Boston was always
supposed to he in the best Of health. Alto
gciher her disappearance is one of the most
mysterious problems that the police OF Bos-
ton have had to grapple with for many years.
