THE TRIAL SENSATIONAL
Continued from First Page.)

he first week of August, 1894, she came )n here. Holmes met her.
 They boarded at 1905 North Eleventh street On the night of September 1,
 S94, she was i'll in her room at the 4 {ooarding house. A man called to see a afGolmes-a representative of the Penn < sylvania Railroad company. Holmes t was selling a copying machine and the man represented himself as anxious to buy 1t.
 That man, the one who called, was Pietzel. That was the Saturday night before he was found dead-he was dis covered on the 4th and had been dead some time.
 HOLMES PRESENCE IN PHILADEL- PHIA BEFORE THE MURDER. | Then came the most damaging testi- mony, the first to show that Holmes Ewas here at about the time the murder was committed.
 'FIe (Holmes) was here with me on i the following day, which was Sunday. < We left here on that Sunday night-at Z 10 p, m.
 He had told me in the afternoon x that he had no more business to trans
 
 q might"
 Sentiment has been brushed aside by Holmes. He began taking notes again and rapidly.
 He told me we should go to Indian \ gapolis, because there was some business ! in St. Louis that had to be settled. The druggist there had not been paid, he told me. He told the people in the ] house that we were going to Indian apolis. We went to Indianapolis, and he remained there with me until the Wednesday following"
 Miss Yohe said Holmes had told her he had got s10,O00 on the Fort Worth property and would get more in install liments. He went on to Philadelphia, and when he returned told her an in teresting story.
 sN ''He said that on the way to Philadel- phia he had met a MT. Howe, a law yer, who told him he was going to Philadelphia on business for client of his
 ''Howe told him about going on to identify body, and Holmes said that from his conversation with Howe he came to the conclusion that he had known the dead man in Chicago. From K Philadelphia he wrote to me to go to X Detroit, and I went there. From De- troit, and I went there. From Detroit we went to Toronto. That was on Oc- s3 tober S. We went to Toronto simply on a pleasure trip. That was what he told me We were there until Friday, Octo- Der 26," and during that time Holmes had Mrs. Pietzel there in another house. had children in still another house, and none in the Three Caravans, as the district attorney has described them knew that the other party was in the town.
 It was here that the district attorney 2 got his first black eye from the court at that.
 He wanted to ascertain from the wit mess at what hotel she and Holmes had # stopped. The defense objected. The objection was sustained. Mir. Graham was much surprised. He had been giv- en his own way entirely and to such an extent that it seemed to startle him to see the defence gain any advantage whatever. He wanted to know why @ the court sustained the objection, to which Judge Arnold replied briefly.
 "Tt is a great waste of public time" in a tone which said plainly: And that settles it, young man.
 The district attorney got wrathy at that and protested that if the line of # examination was considered irrevelent by the court, that he would abandon it: but he didn't want to be charged with wasting the public time. # Judge Arnold took it all quietly \ enough, and said nothing. One could imagine ex-Recorder Smyth looking at him sideways and suggesting commit ment for contempt.
 Miss Yohe said she had known Piet- gel as B. F. Lyman, and knew Holmes as H. M. Pratt in Fort Worth, Tex.
 CROSS EXAMINED BY HOLMES. The direct examination was done, and then a buzz of excitement ran through the court room. Lawyer Rotan con- versed with Holmes a. moment.
 Holmes arose to conduct the cross-ex- animation in person-to question the woman whose presence had brought the tears to his eyes for the first time, the X woman he seemed to love, the woman E who had undoubtedly loved him, did yet, perhaps--in an effort to save his x own neck.
 Her pale face flushed with color the moment he arose and fixed his eyes on her. It was a hectic flush and was in evidence all the time Holmes question ed her. Holmes was calm, quite calm . as cool as his counsel might have been
 It was clear that he realized that his wife, as he always called her, and in- sisted that others should call her, had practically put his neck in the moose though she did mot realize the awful import of all she told. His first question was as to the visit of Pietzel to the boarding house on the Saturday night before he was found dead. And then Holmes put questions that were curious under the circum- stances.
 He made the witness say that he had come home in great hurry on Sunday, August ?. He was all in a perspira- tion.
 You seemed worried and anxious" said the witness through the court crier. "You came in and said we might just as we'll go away tonight so long as had my trunk partly packed. I had packed the trunk because you had told
