Chicago, 111.. July 21. It Is the Intention of the Chlcngo pollen to mako every effort to have H. II. Holmes, the Insurance swln iller, brought hern to answer the charge of having murdered the Williams sisters. The local olllccrs tiro convinced that the murder of the Williams girls was the first com mitted by Holmes, and they argue thnt, in consequence, he should be required to stand trial for it tlrst. They also insist that they will be able to produce evidence that lie did murder the sisters. Tho police are by do means convinced by the nnalysis made by a doctor Saturday thnt tho substance found in tho big stove in Holmes' house was clay, and not human bones. They sny that fire clay would not liecomu brittle in nny kind of heat, wliereus a portion of that found In the stove crumbled in tho hands of Detective Kitzptttrlck. It developed to-day that tho substance on which the first report of the finding of the bones of .Minnie. Williams was hinged was In the hands of Detective Ueyor, of Phila delphia. It was said that he visited Chi cago a week ago, and when ho left, car ried with him positive evidenco that it body had been burned in the big stovo in Holmes' oiilee. It was also learned to-day that De tective CScycr would come to Chicago after he completes his search for the remains of Howard I'ietzel in Dertoit. and will co operate with the Chicago ottlcers in what ever ma- bo done horcafter. In police circles It was said to-night that tho only hope of convicting Holmes was In Chicago. It was said that tho Philadelphia authorities cituld convict him of nothing more serious than Insurance swindling, and that the Canadian authorities would not go to the expense of extraditing and try ing him. In the event that Detective Cicyor falls to locate the body of Howard I'lolzel in Detroit, everything will depend on tho work of tho Chicago police. HOT FIRE IN JHE OIL WORKS. A Destructive, lllnzn In Chicago Causes a IS 1(10, nun Loss iiiul I)esperatn Work to Keep It In Hounds. Chicago, July SI. Tho tiro which stnrted In tho building nt 330 and 333 West Polk street, occupied by tho National Linseed Oil Company and ithe Wright & Lawthor oil and Lead Woiks, at an early hour this morning, was one of the most destructive with which the Chicago tiro department has had to contend In many months. In ithe immediate vicinity there is a largo lumber yard and numerous manufacturing buildings, and it was with tho utmost dlf lleulty that the llames were kept from spreading to 'these. Two large tanks lllled with oil. In the rear of tho burned build ing, were only kept from catching lire bv the hardest kind of work on tho part of the llremen. The main building was totally destroyed and hc loss will reach JlmiOfiU on stock and machinery. The tire was discovered In the, basement by the watchman who turned in the alarm, but before the iitst relay of engines ar rived the entire structure was in tinmen, and adjoining property was being threat ened. The origin of the tire is a mystery. Mrs. John Dollweltzer occupied the build ing adjoining the burned structure, and at the tlmo of the lire was confined to her bed with typhoid fever. She was car ried to a place of safety by the firemen, but it Is feared the shock will prove fatal. President Alexander I'uston, of tho oil company, visited the sceno of the lire to day. Ho said he. thought the insurance would nearly cover tho loss. Four engines wero on tho sceno all day, and to-night the oil which had been In the building was Hill burning brightly.

STAMBUL0FF A TORTURER. Startling Statements .Made bj" it ltrnther of Nnotlin Tufelttclileff, Arrested for Com plicity In tho Premier's Murder. London, July 22. A dispatch to the Times from Paris gives an Interview, published by tho Figaro, with u brother of Nitoum Tufe ktchleff, who was arrested for complicity In the murder of Stambuloff. Jlo said that his brother, Nuoum, was it close friend of Major Panltza, who bad been ex executed by order of StambulcilT, but tho association was purely one of friendship and not one of politics. When the l'unitz.i plot was discovered, all who had been connected with Panltza wero arrested. "Among them," the Inter view continues, "was my youngest brother, Deutehs, aged 17. whom StiimbulofT thought he could force to reveal Xaoiim's ruppnscd connection with the consplra.-y. Deutehs was subjected to atrocious tortures for six months, Stambulolf employing all his in genuity and multiplying the most horrible tortures, until the executioners in hiH pres ence tore the nails from the hands and feet of my brother, nnd committed acts yet more barbarous. "The little fellow refused to accuse N'uoum, and, finally, exasperated, ho spat in Statnbulorr's face, crying: 'Tyrant, I scorn you.' It was his ile.it h v.irrnnt. Stambuloff bathed him In kerosene and burned him alive In October, 1S92." Tufektehlerf concluded that neverthe less neither Nnoum nor himself was i.ii nected with tho murder of M. Stambu loff, which .they depiecated as llk?ly to cause a reaction In his favor, while they hoped that their brother would be avenged by the condemnation of Stambulolf.

Giordano fell to the floor a corpse and tho bullels that did not go through her went through both legs of the four-months' infant she held In her arms. Giordano, fenrlng thtil the tender babe Would bo killed in the fall, sprang forward to clasp It and the assassin then tired again. The buckshot entered the groin and leg of Mary Giordano. The lo-yeur-old little girl, On seeing her mother tall, ran forward and received a portion of tho load of buckshot thnt struck her father. The shot filtered her abdomen, literally tearing It to pieces. At tho tame time little Nlcollnit fell to thu Hoar wound ed through the head. The assassin, Joe Noska, did not move from the spot, but when he saw Heuodltto Giordano, a nephew of the dead woman, and (Jhnrllo Cnlumbiino coming toward him ho coolly placed two fresh shells In his gun and waited until they got very close to him. Then ho raised the gun and fired both barrels, the two men falling to the ground dead. Then, the murderer, tluowlng his gun over his shoulder, made his escape to the woods. When the citi zens ascertained the extent of the deed, they organized si posse, and, led by tho sheriff, attempted to capture the assassin.

Giordano, however, had nothing to do with tills. Giordano had been living on the plantation with ills family for tho pns-t few years. Last October Noska (or Ganaste) came from New York to work on the plantation, lie Is a married man and lived with his wife and two clilldien on the place. The assassin and the wounded man had never had any trouble whatever and no lll-feellng as far as the wounded mail knew existed between them. A VOLUMINOUS REPORT.

Ileforo the closing of the Atchison snloons.thrce weeks ago, tho police department wus not only self supporting but wus moro thun so, It created ,t monthly surplus of about JG00, which was regularly turned over to tho general revenue fund of tho city. Tlio city received tills money so long that it Is now wondering how it can get along with out it. It costs about (1,200 a month to maintain the police depaitment. Without the saloon fines the receipts will not cx.-c-ed J3W a month. The law requires the city, in case enough money is not lalsed by police court Jines, to pay tho balance necessary to meet the monthly expense ac count of the police department. Thu city has no funds with which to meet this new demand. The police department bad enough money on hand when the saloons wero closed to pay July salaries, but after this month, unless the city makes ar rangements to pay the policemen, tho force must bo greatly diminished, If not entirely laid off. Tho closing of the saloons does not ap pear to have stopped drinking to any ex tent. There Is an Increased amount of "running to Missouri" uud it neiv Innova tion in the way of "keg parties."
