END IS NEAR Although we have still many weeks of bright sunshine and warm weather ahead of us, the season's trade at the Globe Warehouse Is fast drawing to a close, and we're already handling the first deliveries of early fall goods. This means an of all that is summerlsh in stock, and when we fairly get down to price cutting, you know that we are not afraid to use the pruning knife with an unsparing -hand. Take stocks from one end of the tore to the other, and you'll find the old figures obliterated and if 'the prices taking their place. No complete lines of purely summer weavea and styles left. Still the assortment will gener erally be found sufficient to please most buyers, while the httleness of prices will delight them. No room for figures here. lite Strictly summer fabric are right m the heart of the season for wearers, but It's getting late for us to hold them longer, and we never, never carry these cob webby creations over from one season to another. Our closing prices will puzzle you because of their lightness, bat you won't complain on that score. Wash Dress Goods begin at 3c and from that they creep up by easy steps to half cents an dpen Blea till the 15c limit Is reached. But few of them figure over half early season's prices, and Bone of them are shop worn or undesirable. Plenty of one sort or another till left to pick from. Tr. rarast ufTer heavily In the general shaking up of prices. One line baa been exceptionally attrac tive this season, and if you're a late buyer, you'll find It doesn't eost as much now to gratify ' your utmost longings for top notch style and qualities as It did a month' ago.' Coaching and Bun Umbrellas are marked for laughter too. GLOBE " UiTIZOOSE' Imeiate Oeanice Season Silks ranted BOXES' CASTLE HORRORS New Evldcicc Against the Moderi Bluebeard. THE CHICAGO DEATH CHAMBER At Least Foar Persona Have Been Craelly Murdered In the Slaughter llouse of the lusaranos Fiend - Story of the Skeleton Eipcrt. Chicago. July 58. Unmistakable evi dence of murder at the Holmes castle in Englewooa were lal night placed In the hands of Inspector Fltpatriek. That at least four people have been cruelly murdered In this chamber of horrors is now a practlcael certainty. The skeleton of one of Holmes' vic tims, supposedly tha't of Airs. Julia Con nors. Is .now In the inspector's otlloe in the city hall. Two other skeletons which came from the same place will be placed In his possession tomorrow. A fourth body has been traced to Phila delphia, and its recipient there will no doubt ibe discovered in the course of a few days. The man who produced this startling evidence was closeted with the Inspector and Detective Norton and Ft tz pa: rick three hours last night. The inspector declines to make his name known at present, for the reason that It woukl handicap his further Investiga tions. The man is the one who mount ed the skeletons for Holmes. Qnlnlia la the Sweat Bex Another most Important feature of this man's story was his statement that during all this time 'that he was flxl::g up sekeletons for Holmes, Pat Qulnlan was about the premises and seemed to be Holmes trusted man. To verify his statement In this regard Quintan, was sent for and confronted y the mounter of skeletons. What took place between the two men the Inspector declined to say. but when Pat came out of the sweat box this time, he looked ten years older, and his whole 'bearing was that of abject despair. The Mine by which the mechanic Is generally known is Charley Chapman. He has not been formally placed under arrest, but probably will be as soon as the police get from him all the informa tion he will give. It is said that he knows entirely too much of Holmes and his skeletons to 'be an Innocent man. It was what he claims to be the ekull of airs. Connor which he brought to Inspector FlUpatrlck. He claims that the balance of the 'bones are now In the hands of a young medical student to whom he loaned them. The entire skeleton will probably be In- the hands of the police tomorrow, together with that of Annie Williams. Chapman la quite positive that he knows from whose bodies the skeletons were taken, and does not seem to realise that, he can tie made to tell where he acquired the inrormatlon or explain why he has held the Information secret. Agents Sold the Skeletons. Upon information obtained from Chapman, Inspector Pitzpatrick to night got possession of the trunk In which Holmes is alleged to have put the body of the Williams girl. The body was sent to a house on Wentworth avenue, near Twenty-second street, for Chapman to work on. Chapman says that when he received the body there was half of the flesh left on the bones, that the back of the head and the hair was Intact. He cleaned the bones and set the skeleton for Holmes. This skel eton, he alleges, 1 still In the city, and early tomorrow morning he promises to take the police to It. He also says that the skeleton was disposed of by Holmes, and that the present .holders are unaware that the fiend ever had anything to do with It, as the sale was made through an agent Chapman was today taken to the Holmes house in Englewood. He point ed out the two spots, one In the north east corner of the cellar and another under the sidewalk, where he claims the police will find beneath the surface two bricked graves, and he Is of the opin ion that a body may be found in one or both of them. An exftra force of men win be put to digging for them early in the morning. One Job That Was Refused. Chapman further says that Holmes offered him 12L0 to set up the skeletons at two children, and that he refused to do them. When asked his reasons, he became confussed and said he simply disliked the job. As to Qulnlan,Inspedtor Fltzpatrlck claims to have sufficient evidence al ready to hang him. Quintan was questioned again today. He admitted some things which yester day he denied. He was greatly con fused, and has told st many stories that he cannot now remember what he has said. Inspector Fltzpatrlck tonight said he was on the track of some of Holmes' go-betweens In Chicago. He further said that there was a number of women who were morally pure when they met Holmes, who are today outcasts, and who don't come forward because they don't want to make known their own disgrace.

OUTRAGE (N AN AMERICAN, Mr. Stern, a New Yorker, Is Imprisoned by the Order of an Offloial Named Thaagea-Washington Author ities Will Be Notified. .Berlin, July 28. Prince Ferdinand has left Carlsbad and Joined his mother and his wife at Coburg.o stenslbly to assist In the ceremonies In memory of his fa ther, who died July 28. 1881 Prince Au gust, of Saxe-Coburg. and other mem bers of the Coburg and Uourboun-Or-loan families, joined the group on Fri day, and the meeting was, as a matter of fact, a family consultation upon the question or Ferdinand's retirement from the Bulgarian throne In favor of hla son Boris, who Is now a year-and-a-halfold. Princess Clementine, Ferdin and's mother, whose money and pluck havbe persistently 'backed her son in his acquirement and retention of the throne, wants hKn to remain in Soflac at any risk, and apparently her counsel was heeded and her propositions ac cepted. According to telegraphic ad vices received from Coburg yesterday. Prince Ferdinand will return to Carls bad to complete his course of the waters, after which he will go to Vi enna and latcer to Schwarzau to join his wife and son, passing a few nights with them before starting for 8ofla. Princess Marie-Louise with the young Prince Boris will not venture to go to Sofia until things have quieted down, but will remain at Schwartzau until Ferdinand thinks tt safe for them to go to Bulgaria. Carlsbad gossip has it that Ferdinand Is very despondent and tells his Intimates that he feels certain that he will meet an early and violent death. In regard to Russia's recognition of Prince Ferdinand the Peather Lloyd, the Hungarian official organ, declared explicitly that such action on the part of Russia would by no possibility suf fice to give him a status "w ith the other powers, and calls attention to the fact that the treaty of Berlin debars Russia from exercising any preponderating in fluence 1n Bulgaria. A story has been going the rounds of the Austrian pa pers which, whether true or not, gives a very clear idea of the feeling against Prince Ferdinand, which pervides Aus tria. It is asserted that Prince Ferdin and recently sent a large order to the wine merchant In Perth, who has long supplied the prince's cellar with Hun garian wines, and requested that the shipment be made Immediately. The merchant at once notified the Bul garian master of tbe household. through whom the order was sent, that he refused to have any further deal ings with the man who was most guilty of the murder of Stambuloff.

Stern has In his possession foank let ters to .the value of 10.000 lire. He is accompanied by his wife, a very stylish lady, and five children, and Is stopping at the leading hotel In the place. The guests of the hotel agree in Indignantly denouncing 'the arbitrary actions of Von Thuengen, which was taken be cause Stern's eon, whom Thuengen de clared too young to te present at a pub llo Iball, disobeyed' his order and at tended, Stemv aotoglzed to Thuengen for the supposed dnsults to his dignity, tout the deputy commissioner refused to accept his apology and Stern was ar rested.

This one bed that was not molested, strange to say, contained all the most valuable silverware, which was hidden, there by Mrs. Hand before the departure of the family. ' The only articles so far ascertained to have been stolen are a pair of trousers and a pair of shoes belonging to 'Mr. Hand. The thief was charitable enough, however, to leave his old duds behind. The thief's trousers would scarcely makea pair of goUbreeches for (Mr. Hand, so it is not likely that charHy In th) Instance will receive its due re ward or appreciation. STOPPED THE CONTRACTORS.

Officer Perry was notified and fol lowed the trial for some distance, but lost it before the city line was reached.

Papers In His Action Agsinst Attorney Smith Filed on Saturday. At noon Saturday the papers were filed In Prothonotary Pryor's office which Instituted a cult of J50.000 for llbgel against Attorney Cornelius Smith and his noteworthy client, John G. Jen nings, of Aflnooka, Attorney I. H. Burns, the plaintiff. Attorneys Major Everett Warren, Joseph O'Brien and John P. Kelley are tine legal representatives of Mr. Burns. Along with the praecipe and declara tion a rule of reference was also filed. The praecipe Is the paper that gives the names of the plaintiff and defendant, aa well as the title of the suit; the dec laration la another paper, containing the history of the case, or rather the bill of complaint. The rule of reference Is a proceeding Which asks for the appointment of three arbitrators, who will try the case, and if they give Mr. Burns an award It will be entered as a Hen against the prop erty of the. defendant. Smith may ap peal from the award, which will brrlng the case to trial in court before a Jury. The reason- that the plaintiff is de sirous of getting the suit tried before arbitrators ls 'because the law's delay will prevent from going to ttial for at least two years on account of the crowded condition of the civil calondar. Aug. 24, at 10 a. m., was fixed as the time for selecting the arbitrators.' ' Another reason for hurrying along the suit is that 'Mr. Burns wants to be vin dicated from the base charges brought against him. The declaration filed Sat urday Is a voluminous document; It first goes on to stale that by virtue of the accusations made ag.tln.st the plaintiff by Mr. Smit'h he Is brought Into public disgrace, contumely and worn. The paper book filed y Mr. Smith, and now a part of the Supreme court records. Is the 'basis of the suit. The charges made therein agnlnnt Mr. Burns, the late Judge John F. Connolly, Deputy Prothonotary Myron J. Knsson and ex-Sheriff John J. Fahoy have been set forth substantially In The Tribune. NO MORE TROLLEY DEATHS.
