Imnortant Letters Pound.

TORONTO, July 2f.-The local Authori-
ties have been put in possession Of num-
Der of letters and documents which show
that early in December Of last year the au-
thorities of Philadelphia were cognizant
that Holmes had made away with the
three Pitzel children. Tho letters show
that on Dee 10 President Fouso of the FL
deity Mutual association wrote to DIR.
John Ferguson Of the Excelsior Life In
surnnce company, this city, asking him
to make inquiries with view TO finding
out whether or not Holmes, with three
children, had come TO Toronto.
Private Detective Hodgins was em-
ployed in the case, and in very short
time found that Holmes and the woman
who then passed off as his wife staid one
day at the Walker House and several days
at the Palmer House in October last; also
that five children had been kept at the AL
bion hotel until the 2bth Of October, and
that on tho latter date Mrs Pitzel, with
her baby and her eldest daughter, Tessie,
were at the Union House in this city, and
that an the parties, with the exception OF
Nellie and Alice Pitzel left Toronto on
that date. This information was supplied
to Mr. Fouse on Dec. %, and great sur.
prise is expressed here that no immediate
action was taken by the Philadelphia au-
thorities.
The Toronto detective had no intima
tion that murder had been committed
on Canadian soil. When Detective Geyel
came to Toronto he studied Detective
Hodgin's report. The morning after his
arrival the press appealed TO those whC
had let houses TO parties who had occupied
them only q short time to communicate
with the police. The man Rives Of is st
Vincent street read this in the morning
papers and promptly reported 70 Inspector
Hall of 2 Division street what he after
ward told at the inquest. In this way anC
during the absence OF Detective Geyer OF
visit to Niagara Falls the bodies wer
located

IT IS A KNOYTY PROBLEM
THE COURTS MAY BE ASKED TO
DECIDE IN MARY KNAPP'S CASE.

The OmcsIs of the woman's Industrial
Home Claim Jurisdiotion over Her and
Her Father VIM Contest It-In the
Meantime She IL in the Home.
The courts may have chance to
decide very knotty problem, hinging on
the OBTAINING of Mary Knapp, aged 19
years, by the officers of the Womens
Industrial School Some time ago Mary
was placed In the school under a con
tract signed BY her father, that she WAS
to remain in charge Of the society until
she WAS 2i years OF age. Some ten
months ago she went out TO service In
the home Of Rev. O. T. Hendricks,
where, she claims, she was kept isolated
from all associates, Was not allowed to
90 nome, and whenever she did anything
wrong was threatened with incarceration
in the home
Last Sunday evening she left Mr. Hem
drcks's home and, not returning, the police
officials were notified Chief Dolan sent a
description to Philadelphia, aud Mary
was located In Bridesburg, whore she
was living with an aunt who Is we'll 60
DO She was brought back TO Whining
ton and placed in the home, the arrest
being made under what is known as the
esespe act.
Here comes the hitch The officers OF
the society claim that they have jnris-
diction over her until she is twenty -one,
under the contract. Her father claims
that that contract was vltiated when she
was allowed to 90 ont to service. and
was paid wages for her services, and
threatens TO bring suit against Mra
Lafayette Marks, Of the society, to
secure Mary release. The court may
have to decide which Is right The law
admits the making Of contracts with the
home but says nothing about the break
Il ing Of such contracts

ELECTION OR NO ELECTION.

A Fight Over the Choice of Successor
Co Msjor Mitchell-No Voting by
Proxy.
The commissioned officers of the Ma,
tional Guard Of Delaware had a lively
election at Dover yesterday for a sue
cessor to Major Edmund Mitchell, Jr.
One side declared Captain Frederick
G Wiswell, of Company B, of Milford,
elected, while the other declares no
election at all.
1t was expected that there would be
no opposition TO the election Of Captain /,
Pusey Wickersham, of this city, and It
was the intention of all those entitled to
8 vote ia this county to cast their
ballots for him.
The down state officers formed a com
bInstioa aud declared that voting by
proxy would not be permitted Some of
them were not In uniform, and TO this
the New Castle county delegates OBJ
jected, but were overruled An election
was held and resulted In the victory OF
Captain Wlswell by the vote Of to 3
Several of the New Castle county men
left the election room. They will refer
the election to Judge Advocate General
McFee on the ground that It was illegal
to rule out voting by proxy, that some
OF the officers we're not in uniform, and
that there were not enough votes cast
necessary for a choice
