H.H. HOLMES, ALIAS MUDGETT
Whose Crimes Have Shocked a
Continent
TO BE TRIED FOR HIS LIFE
Witnesses Have Been Summoned From
Par and Near
There Is an Indication That a Verdict of
Uuilty Will Be Followed by Very
Prompt Hanging
Arsociated Press Special Wire
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 27. - 11. H.
Holmes or Herman Mudgetr, whose
name or alias has rung throughout the
length and hreadth of the continent as
tho most unscrupulous and skillful mur
derer of modern times, will he placed on
trial for his life tomorrow morning in
ihe court of oyer and terminer of this
city. 'J he specified charge to which be
will he called upon to answer ii the mur
der of linjamin F. Pietzel, and he bas
already o'Mciallv declared himself not
guilty. The revolting details of the many
crimes with which Holmes' name boa
been directly or indirectly connected,
have been given rjimh publicity, and
the cold, implacable demeanor which has
characterized the man throughout, bas
been so frequently commented upon tbat
the trial will probably pass into history
as the most celebrated case known to the
criminal annais of the western hemi
sphere. The commonwealth Las already
expended thousands of dollars in iis
efforts to bring (he prisoner to summary
justice, and there is an indication that
should a conviction for murder In the
first degree he obtained, be will be quick
ly "railroaded" to the gallows.
Witnesses have been brought to this
city from Boston, Chicago, Indianapolis,
Irvington, Ind., and almost every city
where Holmes is known tn have lived at
various times. What revelations these
witnesses will make has been kept a pro
found secret by the prosecuting officers,
but there is expectation of sensational
developments.
Detective Gever has been for months
traveling extensively throughout the
country in search of evidence of Holmes'
movements, and will be one ot tbo prin
cipal witnesses for the commonwealth.
The skull and portions of the body of
Pletzel.as well as the remains ol tlie boy,
Howard Pietzel, who is thought to have
been murdered by Holmes in Indianap
olis, will be exhibited during tbe course
of tlie trial.
Judge Arnold will be upon tha bench
ami he has already signified his intent'on
of holding three sessions a day —morning,
afternoon and night—so long as the per
sons interested can stand the strain. Tbe
prosecution will be in the hands of Dis
trict 1 Attorney Oraham ami a corps of as
sistants, while the interests of the prison
er will bo guarded by Messrs. Shoemaker
and liotan, young members of tho local
bar.
Consequent upon the widespread pub
licity givoa the case, it is feared that
se w, raldays will be occupied in securing
a jury of men who have not already
formed decided opinions concerning the
guilt or innocence of Hoimes. It is im
possible to learn even approximately the
number of witnesses to be called on
oitherside, but that there will be a good
ly number is apparent trom the prerau
lions that will be taken to insure tbeir
entrance to tbe court room.
Announcements have been made that
only those who have ousiness thorein
will he admitted and that an increased
corps of court officers, augmented by a
detail of reserve policemen, will enforce
this order at the doors.
Tho murder of Pitzel, if murder it was,
occurred more than a yeat ago. Tho
body, burntd anil blackened as if by an
explosion, was discovered in tho house
No. 1320 Callowhill street, this city, on
September 8,1894. As be had been known
as an inventor named l'erty, tbe supposi
tion was that he had mot death by ac
cident while experimenting. Subsequent
ly the charge was matte that Pitzel had
been murdered by Holmes in an attempt
to defraud the Fidelity Mutual i,ife asso
ciation uf Philadelphia out of $lO,uoo,
Which had been paid by the company to
Mrs. Pitzel, who' was supposed to have
been a part; to the conspiracy, Holmes
having, first introduced Pitzel to the com
pany, jiolmes was arrested in Bolton
November 17th. and Mrs. Pitzel is in
custody as probably the principal witness
against him. There is a likelihood of
ttie case consuming several wcckb time,
unless unforeseen circumstances arise to
bring it to a speedy conclusion.

LITTLE ROOK, Ark., Oct. 27.--Con

of tti is week. Last Friday morning Cor
; bott was supplied with newspapers con
; taimng intimations to the effect that he
WAS aoout to quit the state lo avoid a
meeting with Fitzetmmont. After perus
ing the papers it is related that he frac
tured the adjacent ozone with ponderous
swipes and vowed that he would stay in
Garland county and make mince meat,
metaphorically speaking,of Julian's man.
He at onco pitched into the|work of train
ingi just as if be really were to light Fitz
simmonaoit October Mist. The prevailing
opinion in Hot Springs sporting circles
is that the tight Will certainly occur at
some point In or near Garland county.
Such an air of mystery surrounds the
whole proceedings tnat it is ver/ hard to
get thoroughly reliable information on
the subject. | that preparations are
being made in a quiet way for a light no
ona doubts. Many Hot Springs penp'e
believe the fight will occur at Whitting
ton park, the site originally selected, and
that the battle will occur on the date or
iginally agreed upon. They argue that
the decision of the supreme court attirm-
I ing the prize tight law loaves the matter
j exactly whore it stood before Corbett was
arrested, and that it was virtually a vic
tory for the lighters. The fact that tbe
Hot Springs Athletic Club has engaged
a circus tent seems to indicate, however,
that some private snot bas been selected.
A close friend of Governor Clark lias been
shown letters from Hot Springs which
tend to confirm tbe belief that a fight
will occur. One of these letters is said
to have come from Attorney Martin, and
stated that preparations were being made
for a private tight. Governor Clark, in
1 speaking of this information, is said tn
have remarked that lie did nut care how
much they fought, as long as it was con
ducted in private and without being ad
vertised.

CLEVELAND. <)., Oct. 27.-Spscials to
the Leader from Tiffin say: The city has
been shocked from center to circumfer
ence over the attempt to lynch Marshal
ychultr's slayer last night. It is in a
veritable uproar, the streets having been
thronged all day, some tilled with morbid
curiosity, but many witb trouble written
plainly on their faces. The mub tbat
attacked the jail early this morning waa
composed of the worst specimens of law
dehors that any community oould pro*
ituce. Whisky had been indulged in un
til they were more Hue blood-thirsty
wolves than human beings. To reason
with them meant danger, if not death,
to tho peace-maker.
The moo came from an entirely unex
pected source. The report was current
that a crowd of farmers from Hopewell
township was congregating and organizing
on the outskirts of town, and the attack
was expected to be made by them. But
instead it was done by fellows who had
been circulating in the neighborhood of
