CHICAGO. Aug. 1. The police acknowledged -
edged today their complete defeat to far as
the effort to secure direct evidence of mur
der against H. H. Holme ; was concerned.
Doreas ol promising clews Jmve been care
fully Investigated , witness after witness who
was confidently expected to "tell all" has
been examined -without result , and at last the
detectives are forced to admit that their
efforts have been unavailing to far as real
proof of guilt Is concerned. This was ad
mitted by Inspector FHipatrlck today. "When
we started on this case. " he said.ve knew
It would be almost Impossible to get any ont
who could positively connect Holmes with
any case of murder , yet we though i it our
duty to investigate and we have done the
best we could. We believe several crimes
have been committed and believe that Holmes
and his confederates are guilty of seieral
murders , but so far weare unable to prove
our belief correct. ' We have no evidence
that would even cause an Indictment of any of
the men under suspicion If it were presented
to the grand Jury. "
Pat Quinlan was given a two-bours session
in the sweat box today , but the result was
as unsatisfactory as the previous examina
tions of the ex-Janitor. Qu.rlan pives no
ev'drnce of weakening , and stubbornly sticks
to his statement that he l.nows absolutely
nothing of any killing.
The police received word tpd y of the
mysterious hauling away from the Holmes
hcuie at night , of several large boxes. The
boxes were tahen from the house during
Holmes' residence theie , and several detec
tives were detailed on the new lead in the
case.
case.A special to the Port from Philadelphia
says- Holmes , the alleged w-holesale mur
derer , was asked today In an interview "Can
vou explain how so many bones came to b
concealed in the basement and other parts
of your Chicago houre * "
"I will answer that question In this way. "
he replied. "Every pe-sn who has known me
Is aware that I am a doctor by profession
Jt Is also known psrfectly well in Chicago
that there was a restaurant In my building
during the World's fair. At that time there
were lots of bones from fowls and other
cooVed animals thrown outside the building
Lots of these bones , no doubt , found their
way to the cellar. During the time 1 lived
In the building I brought several cadiren
there , both for scientific and pecuniary pur-
poes. This may account fo * the banes tht
Chicaco police say they have found. "

She was unfortunate in more ways than one
I cannot-but believe she is still alive , al
though God only knows where , as she Is

tragedy which resulted in the killing of he

at this time. "
"Is It true that Minnie Williams killed he

"Yes. it all came about over a jealous quar

GRESNSBt'RG. Ind. . Aug. 1. Facts have
developed here which make the supposition
ery strong that Harry Walker , who mys-
erlously disappeared from here about two
ears BED. became another victim of H. H.
iolmes.
Walker was about 23 years old when he
came to tbis city from the old country , three
ears ago. His trade was that of a Jeweler
le was a good workman , commanding a fair
salary. He traveled a great deal , often
going to Indianapolis and Chicago to spend
lit Sunday ? . It was on one of these trips
that be met Holmes. He was sitting in tbe
union station at Indianapolis when a well
dressed gentleman stepped up to hUn and in
troduced himself as Holmes. He said he was
waiting for the Chicago train , and the two
were soon in a conversation. Holmes said be
was a real estate dealer and had considerable
property of his own In Chicago to look after.
He was desirous of emplo > lng a secretary
and offered Walker a large salary to fill tbe
position. WaH.fr stated that he was under
obligations to his employer and would noT
leave him without his consent fpon returnIng -
Ing he spoke to his employer about the mat
ter and was anxious to accept the offer. Mr
Tillson , b.s employer , thought it was some
qutsr scheme , and acting upon his advice.
Walker abandoned tbe Idea.
About three weeks afterward Holmes came
to the city and registered at the
Hotel de Armand as Waldo Bunk-
horn. Indianapolis. He Inquired for
Walker , and they bad a long talk to
gether and drove about the city and rut into
the country a distance Holmes offered tc
- Increase his offer If Walker would go to Chicago
cage with him and assured Walker that he
wonjd enjoy livins tbsre. He also induced
Walker to have his life insured for 515,000
and he promised to pay all dues , and in casi
Walker died he would give $10,090 of tin
money to his sister In Pennsylvania , accord
Ing lo a signed contract.
Walker left this city shortly afterwar ;
and went to Batesville. where he engage <
i In the Jewelry business. He had not beet
there Icng. however , when be mysterious ! ;
dii appeared. Holmes was seen -with bin
" : I tbe day before , but nothing was though
