Taken From IIolmes' Chleago Castlo-A
Valuable Witness Found,
CHlcAdo, July 2S.-More conclusive
evidence than has heretofore hoOn coll
lscted by tho police in the Holmes cuse
was revealed by the investigation last
night. Inspector Fitzpatrick believes II
to bO certain that at least three MUIR
ders wera committed In tho Castle OF
Holmes, and through witnesses that
were found to-day II Is thought that
Holmes can now bs convicted OF mur-
dor in this city, The police have found
a man whose name they refuse to dl-
Vulge, but who vas brought TO tho ollce
OF tho inspector this afternoon by
Lieutenant Thomas and Officer Foley, OF
tho Cottage Grove avenue station.
lie told tho police that no had mount
cd three skeletons for Holmes. and that
the skeletons vers from bodies taken
from the house OF Holmes in Sixty-thtrd
street. Ono OF these, ho said, was the
body Of q man, and the other two were
women. They we're taken from q dark
room in Holmes house in tho night
time, aud Two OF the mounted skeletons
we're returned to Holmes, The third
skeleton Ia now In the possession OF In'
apeutor Fitzpatrick. The flesh OF the
bodies had not been stripped from the
bones when tho bodies were given to
the new witness, but tho faces Were so
badly lacerated and torn that ldOntltcR'
ton would have been impossible.
Tho man says no was sent for IN
June, 1893, by Holmes, who was at that
time going under tho namo oil Gordon.
The first skeleton fixed up was that OF a
man! the skin Of whose face was res
moved. In order to remove the body
tho arms were cut on, and the articula'
tor left tho house, carrying the arms
with him. in q sack. He had just
reached the house when he was called
to the front door by q loud knocking.
lie went down and found lIolmea aud
another man thors. ThOy had the bal
auce Of the body, which had been cut
In two more piecea. In December OF the
same year he got the body OF q young
woman from the house.
In January, 1893, the nrticulGtor got
tho second body Of a woman. Because
Holmes did noE pay him he kept the
second skeleton. Tho police declare
now they have almost positive proof
that the first female body was that Of
Emiline Cigrand and the second that Of
Annie Wiiiiama. itis the skull Of Annie
Williams that is now at the Central
station.
The police also found an ozpfossuiaa
- II. ,,.a nkla 80 Vtun NphRI tina
police think is important information.
The name Of the Nxpressmap is CHARLES
Humphrey, and in tho month Of Juno,
1898, hs was hired by Holmes to deliver
a box aud a trunk at tue Union depot
in this city. The box, according TO
Humphrey, was taken from a dark
room and had the appearances Of a cotin
box. This was expressed to Philadel'
phia, while tho trunk was sent in an'
other direction.

OUR FOREIGN RELATIONS.

The Administration is likely to have
about as many rods In pickle as it can
well take care of, If our complications
with foreign relations continue to pile
mp before we shall have done with some
of them.
In the first place, there is the affair
of the Alliances the shooting at the
American flag, what ex-Secretary of the
Navy WHITNEY effectively expresses as
the greatest insult offered a first class
power in half a century. Spain is just
now in the hands of the military.
They are hot headed fellows,
these Spanish soldiers, and their
control Of affairs may bring about more
trouble between Spain and ourselves
than ought to spring from the Incident,
insulting of itself, but which Spain in
her sober moments would, of course,
make haste to make amends for-as the
United States would under circum-
stances of similar indiscretion OH the
part of some of our naval officers.
But the Alliance incident is compare
lively trivial. We know just where we
stand on this, what our policy should
be in any contingency, and the situation
Is clear. But the situation in Venezuela
and Bluefields presents real compi-
cations of the most delicate kind.
And England is our vis-a-vis
IN apx I,acrss;o, -. n;.l,n. - A..
subjects. 1t is England that insists on
taking land from the Republic of Vene-
zuela, and it is England that is disposed
to maintain her right to practical
control in the Mosquito country,
too close to our Nicaragua interests for
comfort. The policy of the United
States, the MONROE Doctrine, is settle
against further foreign encroachments
on the Western hemisphere and England
Is beyond all manner Of doubt intent
on getting around that policy If she can
do it aud accomplish her purpose with.
out being discovered. The United
States, as the sponsor for the Central and
South American states, is bound TO
protect their autonomy SO far as foreign
encroachment goes by diplomacy, If
practicable; by an aggressive move in
their defense, IL necessary.
Nor is this all. England has shown a
strong desire to claim more than her
share Of Alaska, to lay hold Of valuable
waterways that we should claim AS our
own, and to generally disport herself
after England's manner, overbearing
nervy, and .sidering nothing but the
exte" empire, the seizing OF
ground left unguarded

ONE SHORT.

We are informed by an interested
correspondent that our list of duties,
discovered and cared for by the board
of fire commissioners, is one short. We
quote but six, and our correspondent
says there should be seven. He says
that the general order that we quote as
No is really No. 3.
We will take pains TO amend our
record just rs soon as we hear from the
fire commissioners as to the accuracy of
our correspondents statement. We re-
gret to have overlooked the general
order referred to.

THE military spirit evidently rules in
Spain. 1t was the military that over
threw the Spanish Republic in 1878, and
the evidence afforded by the resignation
Of a ministry because it could not con-
troll the mob Of young officers in Madrid
who sacked the offices of newspapers
that had ventured to criticise them, in
dicates that the military, right or wrong,
is still supreme over civil authority. In
any country this condition is a menace
to government, and in this case it is not
unlikely to embarrass Spain in her effort
to make amends for the Allianca affair
