Fully 5,000 curious people vlsfted Sixty-third and Wallace streets yesterday ami sought admission to Holmes' castle. Enterprising Jewel er Davis, who occupied part of the drug store In the .building, had made ar rangements to admit visitors on pay ment of a 10-cent fee and expected to reap a rich harvest but .the police heard of It and forbade admission to the building above the first floor. The information given by the me chanics, Charles M. Chappelle, who wa examined by the Inspector yesterday, Is undoubtedly the most valuable which the detectives have yet obtained. Another arrest was made yesterday, that of 11. S. 'Maek, who worked for Holmes during the last six months he lived In the Sixty-third street house. The police have been looking for him since Friday, and they admit that they have the most important witness they have yet rounded up. They are certain that he knows all about Pat Quintan and his wife and their connection with Holmes from certain admissions he has made to friends. The Inspector and Chief Badenoch eay they have sufficient evidence to convict Holmes and Qulnlan. and aa the present grand jury will be the last one until September, every effort Is being made to get the evidence In shape to present to that ibody ibefore Its adjourn ment. From present Indications It Is likely that the matter will be laid be fore the grand Jury tomorrow. Summing up the gist of the police work yesterday, It may ibe said on the authority of the police that they ex pect to hang Pat Qulnlan, H. H. Holmes, the man Harris, alias Zlegle. and James C. Allen, the Little Rock convict, befure they finish with the castle. Skeletons Not Perfect. The skeletons mounted by Chappelle are not perfect. Inspector Fltapatrlck said this morning that he expected to gut the remainder of them, but would not tell from what soy roe. Medical experts pronounce the skele tons as having 'belonged, to two girls afbout the age of 20 and a woman of middle age. Mot all the teeth were re moved, and the police nope that there may be some sort of Identification from these which remain. He is not at all certain that Lhe(bone beloRg to 'Holmes' Victims. As an inunaiwa swindler nothing would have 'been more natural tnan Tor mm to have procured bodies with the Intention of deceiving the companies and then have their skeleton articulated as .in extra cource of revenue. The market price of a human, frame, when neatly mounted, ranges from $40 to J50, and the furnaces In the cellar, which It Is believed were used for bend ing plate glass, would have been good places to boll the bodies and dispose of the flesh. Patrick Qulnlan still main tains a sturdy front. Aa Important Development. Philadelphia, July 29. The confession of Cephos Humphrey, the colored Chi cago expressman, made yesterday to the police In that city, in which he stated that .he had been employed by Holmes' to remove severaJ mMl. that apparently contained human ootuea, ts accepted by the authorities here aa an Important development In the mysterious case and one that la apt to upset several of the theories of the police and the district attorney. Correspondence Is going on between the district attorney and the authori ty at Chicago, but the Toronto er.d of the case is about dropped, as the chances of securing a conviction there are considered to be far less than at Chicago. Lawyer 8hoemaker, who rep resents Holmes, stated today that he had visited his client ait the county prison and conversed with him. Can Prove an Alibi. "I 'had a long talk with my client," said be, "and while It would be unwise and unprofessional to make public the result of the conference, I can say that If the western authorities do not dis continue making charges against Holmes he will soon be charged with having 'been directly responsible for every mysterious disappearance of man, woman and child that the police of all cities have failed to unravel. We are prepared at this moment to prove an alibi In every case thus far brought against Holmes, and both myself and my client would welcome any legal ac tion ithat would place him on trial Ito answer the charge of having murdered any one in this city or elsewhere. Chi cago seems to be anxious to secure him and any case that the authorities there have against him we can meet." Holmes and his last known wife are the Joint owners of several pieces of property In Chicago and elsewhere, and Mr. Shoemaker, at their request, Is ne gotiating to convert this Into cash for the purpose of being prepared to meet the expenses of a trial. Discovery la the Cellar. Chicago, July 29. Workmen digging In the Holmes building this morning found in a corner of the cellar, six bones, (our of which were small and the oth ers about six Inches In length. iDr. Robinson; the druggist, gate It as his opinion that the small .bones were those of a human being, but the others were not. Most -of the day was devoted to trying to locate the hidden vats, in which Machinist Ohappell told the po lice Holmes was accustomed to put bodies. The work was .very slow, and was still further delayed by the crowd which had to be occasionally driven back by an extra detail of police, which was called out for that purpose. The eeoret tunnel, described by Mrs. Syl vester, of Kansas City, was also looked for, but as yet has not been found. People who knew Dr. Russler In En glewood say tie disappeared suddenly In 189a, and some adhere td the theory that he met death In the charnel house. He had an Offloe In Holmes' building, and the two men were often seen to gether. The doctor's disappearance was not explained at the time, and has not been since. Dr. Robinson found today the signa ture of Minnie Williams on several re ceipts he has at his store, and they will be used by the police In the Investiga tion of the alleged transfer of Fort Worth, Tex., property toy the Williams girl Indirectly to Holmes. 'By these the police hope to settle the disputed ques tion as to whether the deed was forged. Secret Vault I'aeartaed. Chicago, July 29, The 'huge brick vault underneath 'Holmes' charnel house was unearthed by the police to day, who are still delving In Vhe earth In and about the cellar. The existence of this vault has been theoretical until today. Many rumors of such a recep tacle has been circulated, but It was not until the police discovered Machin ist Chappel that they succeeded in gaining any Idea of the location of the vault. When Chappel accompanied the officers through the Holmes house yes terday he Indicated the location of the vault in the southeast corner of the cellar, and early this morning half a dozen men were put to work digging In 'the place Indi cated. At 4.30 o'clock the officers In charge of the work telephoned police headquarters that tihey had reached and uncovered a long strip of the roof of the vault. Superintendent Badenoch at once gave orders to get tthe ground In such shape that the vault could be easily opened tomorrow and to discon tinue the work then for the day. The police theory Is that Holmes used this vault for qulektlmlng the bod!es of hfs victims and getting them Unto such a condition that they could not possibly be identified. While the police o metals are not hopeful of finding bodies of murdered people In the vault, t'hey are at the same time 'hopeful of se curing evidence to fully establish Just what the vault was used for and what connection. If any, -the vault had with t'he half destroyed human bodies that were carted away from the charnel house to t'he home of the articulator. CARSON IS CAPTURED.
