The authorities ave con- | vinced that they were murdered by H. H.| Holmes, who Is now in prison in this city, awaiting trial on the charge of conspiracy to defraud the Fidelity Mutual Lite Insuraice | association of $10,000. This amount was ob- | tained by Lawyer Jeptha D. Howe of St Louls, representing the family ¢f B. F. Pitzel, who it is alleged, was kill:d in this city by an explosion of a chemical &nd who had shortly before insured in the Fidelity company. It is probable that the charge against Holmes will be changed frem con- spiracy to murder as it is generally bilieved that Pitzel is really dead and thai Holmes murdered him. Just betore Holmes was brought to trial he made a confesxon in which he said he procured a corpse in New York, brought it to this city and disnguring it by the use of chemicals, palmed It off as th remains of Pitzel After the confes- sion Holmes' trial was postponed until Octo- ver It could not be learncd today whether the district attorney had taken aay set'on, but it is belleved he will refrain from dcing any- hing until after the coroner's inquest in Toronto. The question now Is whether Holmes will be h:ld fo trial here on the charge of murdering Pitzel or be taken o Canada to answer for the death of the two little girls. It Is believed that as ihe Phila- delphia murder antedates the Canadian naur- ders the man will have to stand trial hers Detective G who found the bodiss of the children in Toronto, has been on the caso since September, 1894, when the chiarred remains of the bogus or genuite Plizel we Mound. He has followed out many furnished by Presidnt Fouse of the delity Mutual Insurance association ard has been confident from the outset that the murder would finally fasten upon Holmes. President Fouse said: “Everything poinis to the fact that Holmes plotted to destroy the entire Pitzel family, and as Howard has disappeared, it is probable that he was kili:d We found a house on Forest avenue in D-- troit_where Holmes and the boy had beon togather and there were traces of a huge five built in the furnace, from which we infer- he burned the boy's corpse. The belief is also that he attempted to de stroy Mrs. Pitzel in Burlington, Vt., by hav- ing her handle a can of nitro-glycerine tha: he left in the hcuse she cecupled. Should it be proven that Holmes murdercd the children it will be strong circumstantial evidence that he killed their father. He will undoubt.dly be tried here for the latter crime. Mrs. Pitzel, the mother of the murdered children, is at present supposed to be at her old home in Galva, Henry county, I, with two of her children, a daughter aged 17 and a baby. She went direct to Galva afier Holmes had pleaded guilty DETECTIVES FOLLOW! CINCINNATI, July 16 the two bodies of the Pitzel children at To- ronto recills the hot chase local detectives had while H. H. Holmes was a ent of Cincinnati. He had with him the two girls and the boy. Datectlve Geyer came here from Philadelphla_and_enlisted the assistance of Chief Deitsche. Detective John Schucks was detailed to assist him. Great secrecy was preserved concerning Dea- tectivo Geyer's trip, as It was feared that Holmes would escape from this city If he learned that he was being closely followed by a Philadelphia detective. At the time of Holmes' presence here Pitzel, the father of the children, had only been murdered a short time and $16,000 insurance money had been secured by his death, while Holmes had just been appointed guardian and authorized tc collect the insurance money The detectives traced the n street by street from the moment of his first arrival here. He had stopped one night with the children at th Bristol hotel, and one night at the Atlantic house. Then he removed to a house on Pop- lar street, which he had rented, and it was later supposed that the bodies of the children had been buried In the cellar of the Poplar street house, which was dug up without any trace being found of the bodies. TORONTO, July 16.—The bodles of the two Pitzel children, which were exhumed in the cellar of a vacant house yesterday, were today removel to the morgue. Drs. Caven and Orr are engaged in a post mortem today to dis- cover by what means the little ones met their death. The inquest will be reopened as soon as the autopsy is concluded. Efforts will be made to extradite Holmes at once and to give him the benefit of swift and sure Canadian justice. Detective Geyer of Philadelphia came here imbued with the idea that Holmes rented a house and had taken the children there to murder them; that after doing so he had either burled their bodies or thrown them: into the bay. It is his theory that the chil- dren were chloroformed in a trunk. It re- mains to be seen whether the finding of th post mortem examiners will bear out the sup- position that Mrs. Pitzel's Saratoga trunk figured in the murder. THINKS THE BOY WAS KILLED, TOO INDIANAPOLIS, July 16.—The Journal to y prints an article containing the state- ment that the Pitzel boy, the brother of Alice and Nelle Pitzel, whose dead boiles are supposed to have been unearthed at Tc ronto ye:terday, was beyond doubt murdered n this city on October 8 last, presumably by Holmes, the insurance swindfer, now in cus today in Philadelphia. It has develope that a certain express driver, by agreement with Holmes, called at the old Circle hous on that date and removed through a rear door a large trunk, which is believed to have contained the boy's remamns. The driver, Lewis by name, has recognized the picture of Holmes as the man who employed him. The 5D HOLMES.
