Lake, on the Pensylvania Lines, near Warsaw Ind., the ideal spot. This pretty resort is site of Wii.ona Assembly and iv Summer school, the youngest of the
Chautauqua Assembly?. The grounds i, have been well and favorabley known as Spring Fountain Park. They constitue about two hundred acres of romantic .Woodland st etching nearly two miles the eastern shore of E.igle Lake, a Tptf'J^jautiful sheet of water. The grounds have been platted and pretty cottages constitute the summer homes of persons who here find rest and liealtbgiviag recreation in iuvigoratiug air, amid attractive surroundings. Some desirable cottage sites are yet obtainable. In addition to the portion laid out for building purposes, a fine park has been made. There is also a race track with overlooking amphitheatre furnishing splendid facilities for outdoor, athletic sports. The large auditorium has a seiting capacity of 3,000, and the several college halls are used fo
Assembly purposes. A good hotel, lestaurants and supply stores furnish means of living at reasonable rates. A large fleet of row boats with two steamers will permit indulgence in boating, and persons fond of fishing may enjoy that pastimn to satisfactory extent, as the lake teems with fish. The low tourist rates over the Pennsylvania Lines place these pleasures within easy reach. The rate will be in effeet all season from ticket stations ©n these lines. In addition to the season tourist tickets, a low rate will also be in effect for round trip tickets good fifteen days. Ticket agents of the Pennsylvania 'Lines will furnish them, and they may be obtained from agents of connecting lines. The Assenbly Department opens July 1st and continues four weeks during which time prominent speakers will discuss live topics. During August there will be educationel work under Prest. Joho M.

Agent, o)f address F. Van Dusen, Chief Assistant! General Passenger Agent, Pittsburgh, Pa. Applications for information concerning* the resort should be addressed to Secretary E. S. Scott, Eagle Lake, Ind.
The Asbary Park excursion will doubtless attract many to that delightful ocean resort. Atlantic City, Cape May, Long Branch aBd all the famous watering places along the New Jersey coast are located on the Pennsylvania Lines, hence this will be a desirabip opportunity to visit the seashore. The Denver excursion will be just the thing for a sight-seeing jaunt thro' the far West, as tickets will be honored going one way and returning a different route through the most romantic scenery beyond the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. Variable route privileges will also be accorded Boston excur gionists, enabling them to visit Niagara Falls, Montreal, Thousand Islands and St. Lawrence Rapids, the White Mountains, the Hudson River territory, and to return by steamer on Long Island Sound, after sight-seeiag at Newport. Narragansett Pier, Nantucket and the Cape Cod resorts to New York and thence through the agricultural paradise of the Keystone State, along the Susquehanna and Juniata rivers, over the Alleghenies, around famous Horse Shoe Curve, through historic Johnstown and the coke and Iron regions of Western Pennsylvania. It is also expected that Boston excursionists over the Pennsylvania Lines will be privileged to return via Baltimore and Washington if they so desire.
In addition to the above, there will be plenty of other cheap excursions over the Pennsylvania Lines to various points. As the season is some weeks away, arrangements in detail have not been consume mated, but It Is certain that no railway will offer better inducements than the liberal concessions in rates and privileges that may be enjoyed by travelers over the Pennsylvania Lines. This fact may readily be ascertained upon application to any passenger or ticket agent of these lines, or by addressing F. VAN DUSEN, Chief Assistant Gen. Pass. Agt., Pittsburg, Pa. apr6wd-t-s-tf

PARTIAL CONFESSION
Pat Quinlan Tells Something About Holmes.
BENJAMIN F. PIETZEL'S DEATH.
He Was Mnrdered by Holmes in Chicago and His Body Sent to Philadelphia—A Few Alore Days and Some Startling Discoveries Are Expected to Be Made—New and Important Evidence.
CHICAGO, Aug. 3.—The police have at last obtained a partial confession from Pat Quinlan, the janitor of Holmes' "castle," and have, they believe positive evidence that Benjamin F. Pietzel was murdered in this city by Holmes and the corpse sent to Philadelphia.
The confession was wormed out of the Quinlans by means of a tip given the local officers by Detective Geyer of Philadelphia, who arrived in this city yesterday. The exact nature of the story told by the Quinlans the police will not reveal, and in fact Chief Badenoch and Inspector Fitzpatrick have both denied that Quinlan or his wile made any confession at all.
Notwithstanding the denial of the police, however, it is positively known that Quinlan made and signed a conression, because it was left where Qtiiulan's signature on the document could be seen, although that subject matter, under which he wrote his name could, not be ascertained. Last night, However, it was learned th in a confession was made covering all details of the murder of Pietzel with the exception of tne actual place in which the crime was committed. This the police declare they will soon have, and they declare that by Aug. 5 they will have indisputable evidence that Pietzel came to his end through the direct agency of H. H. Holmes.
The confession was obtained from the Quinlans only after the hardest kind of work and at the price of a promise of immunity from punishment for all part the Quintans may have borne in the murder ot Pietzel or other crimes committed by Holmes.
Mrs. Pat Quinlan knew of the disappearance of Mrs. Julia L. Conner in Holmes' castle and saw tne body of the woman after she was dead. She further knew, and has admitted, that Pearl Conner disappeared mysteriously in the castle after her return from a trip to the Quinlan farm at Lakota, Mich.
Chief Badenoch took Mrs. Quinlan and her husband to the castle with Inspector Fitzpatrick and Detectives Fitzpatrick and Norton. The object of this trip was more for the purpose of letting Quinlau and his wife meet than any other. They were closeted together alone for an hour in the room in which the Julia Conner carpet lies and the chair belonging to the murdered woman stands.
What took place between them no one knows but Chief Badenoch, and his detectives are nearer a solution of the Holmes' mystery than they were ever before. The chief now has proof positive that Mrs. Conner and Pearl, her daughter, or Cora Quinlan, were murdered in the building while the mother was in his employ. Mr. Quinlan has given information within the last 24 hours which brings the charge of murder nearer to Holmes than it lias been in Chicago at any time since tho case opened.
Quinlan and his wife, while demonstrating to the police they were at no time guilty of the crime of murder themselves, have made admissions by which the chief could use them on the stand as valuable witnesses against Holmes in proving that Mrs. Conner and a child were made away with by Holmes lor the purpose of securing insurance which Mrs. Conner carried on her life in favor of her daughter, or in which Cora Qninlan's life cut an important ligure. Further, Quinlan and his wife have proved to the police that Mrs. Conner was so well aware of the schemes which Holmes was operating that it became necessary for Holmes to put the woman out of the way.
Mrs. Conner's body was disposed of by burial within the castle somewhere close to the spot where Pearl's supposed body was found. The police have not ceased their efforts to find the bottom of the basement and uncover her remains.
Pat Quinlan and his wife have admitted, partially, the woman more than the man, that a business in receiving and disposing of dead bodies, stolen from country graveyards, was carried on in the castle under the direction. of Holmes. The graveyards of the western portion of Michigan. Grand Haven, South Haven, Muskegon, Holland, St. Soe, the Bay, Lakota, ancient places, with venerable graves were despoiled of bodies and collins. "the bodies were brought to the castle, chemically treated and then disposed of to medical colleges. The collins were remaue by Quinlan, Pietzel and Holmes, relined and dispose^ of to undertakers at a fair profit.' "We have sufficient evidence to keep Holmes in prison for the remainder of his natural days," said Detective Geyer, "without charging him with murder. Should he by a technicality escape the conspiracy charge in Philadelphia, 20 warrants on other charges are ready vto be served on him. The Toronto chaise of murder is the strongest one against him, and if he is taken there he wi|l probably be hanged As to all tha/Chicago charges there is only the proof that he was a swindler. I believe it will be finally shown that he did murder Mrs. Conner and the two Williams girlst Minnie Williams, I think, was killed last fall, at the same time as Howard Pietzel. I have found no trace of his body."
New witnesses in the Holmes case have been located. Jasper Richardson, the expressman, wanted to back up the testimony of M. G. Chappell, Holmes' "bonerigger," is not dead, as reported. Richardson corroborates Chappell's story. He has told the police all he knows of Holmes' traffic in mysterious packages and boxes, and beside, the express companies' receipts in the Washington street office show just how much work Holmes had done in the years 1891-93 and where the "packages" he handled were delivered.
The new witness said he did not know what those packages contained at the time they were handled. To the police he had made no revelations, bat since Chappell says this traffio was in dead men's bones, Richardson says he is quite prepay to believe it. The humIwr of these' »'ps to the Wallace street
house, he adds, can not be contained in 20 calls nor 30. "I remember this special patronage very well," said Richardson. "Holmes sent these boxes all over the city at times to physicians and medical students and again to the hospitals direct. A-good part of stuff we also took to the various depots. He received a good many consignments himself from other points. The boxes handled, as I remember them, were strong and tight and there were also well-headed barrels in numbers. I don't remember seeing that old trunk Chappell turned up, nor do I recall any trips to dump stuff in the lake. I guess Holmes had use for most everything he handled without throwing anything away."
The other witnesses involved in this evidence are Edward Morrison and Edward Newman, both drivers for an ex- won press company in Englewood at the time Holmes ran his plant for drying bones and giving them copper mountings.
REVIEW OF TRADE.
K. G. Dun & Compan's Weekly Kuporc on tile Condition of Ilusiuess.
NEW YOHK, Aug. 3.—R. G. Dun & Company's weekly review of trade says: There is a perceptible halt which may deceive if attributed to wrong causes. Trade two months late in spring, Vusiied forward in July a large share of 'isiuess belonging to April or May. oouiiig a rush of orders out of time, many imagined it would continue, and hurried to give other orders. The jam oi two months' business into one lilted prices. Then other orders came to anticipate a further rise. But the midsummer halt was inevitable, and it is yet somewhat uncertain how much improvement will appear alter it.
The crop of corn promises to ba the largest ever grown, and is almost out of harm's way. The crop of wlieat appears from later accounts perhaps 20,000,000 bushels smaller than was expected a month ago, and had the best hopes been realized it would have been more than 100,000,000 bushels short of a full crop. Cotton has lost a little, and more people seem to believe 7,500,000 bales than believing in 8,000,000 a monht ago.
Larger stocks than were immediately wanted have been taken by traders, as prices was advancing, and these tend to limit future orders.
The general advance in many products also causes reluctance to purchase, and the distribution of tho past half year lias been in part to make up for stocks and individual supplies depleted during two years of economy. On the other hand there has been enormous increases in the working force and a considerable increase in wages paid, which enables people to buy more freely. Strikes of some importance appear, but do not yet threaten to last long, though a strike of coal miners may for a time affect business somewhat extensively. The hopeful spirit prevailing in nearly all markets may find its warrant in spite of some shortage in crops.
For the first time since the rise in prices of iron products began there have been some concessions to retain business, and efforts of new works to getorders tend to check the advance. In spite of this the general average of prices is a shade higher, bar having risen relatively more than mill iron lias declined. The market for pig iron is quiet, and on the whole remarkably strong, with the prospect of an increased output. Finished products are generally strong with more demand than can at present be met for plates and for bar. The
is yet delayed Great speculation in copper stocks has brought out some extravagant statements of demand and profits, but 11 3-4 has been paid in some cases for lake, and the consuming demand is actually heavy. Tin has remained strong in spite of large arrivals, and visible stocks 5,000 tons larger th«n usual, and lead is stronger in tone.
Wheat suddenly rose 3 cents on bad reports of condition, but has dropped all the gain, as the scantiness of exports is felt, shipments in July having been only 3,495,054 bushels, flour included, from Atlantic ports, against 9,865,633 last year. Western receipts continue very small, and farmers appear to be holding for higher prices.
Corn is a sfrade Wronger, although the reports are decidedly favorable. Cotton has risen an eighth in price, wholly on bod condition reports, bat at the lowest estimate the year's yield with stocks carried over will exceed the world's demand.
Heavy sales of coal are reported at prices at least 70 cents below the circular, and the markec is much demoralized, with fear of auction sales.
Failures for the week have been 261 in the United States, against 230 last year, and 28 in Canada, against 44 last year.
No Longer Mrs. Corbett.'
NEW YORK, Aug. 8.—Judge Glidersleeve yesterday approved the referee's finding in the Corbett divorce case. This gives Mrs. Corbett an absolute decree, with the right to use her maiden name, Ollie Lake. She is to receive |5,200 a year alimony, payable semiannually. She may marry again, but Corbett is forbidden to do so during the life of his wife.

MINERS VICTORIOUS.
Good Results of a Conference Held at Pittsburg. V' INCREASE OF WAGES GRANTED.
l'he Basis of the Compromise lit That the Present Kates Are to Continue Until October 1, When a Uniform Rata
Throughout the District Will Be Made of Sixty-Nine Cents.
PITTSBUKG, Aug. 3.—The biggest victory ever}' made by organized labor was yesterday in Pittsburg by the miners. Almost every demand was granted and the operators have a written guarantee for their fulfillment of the contract. The papers were signed last night which increases the wages ol 100,000 miners in Pennsylvania, Ohio Indiana and Illinois.
The terms of the agreement are that the present rate of wages shall continue in force until Oct. 1, when every operator in the Pittsburg district will pay the 69 cents rate with a differential of cents in favor of operators who do not have company stores.
The agreement further provides foi another advance on Jan. 1. It is understood that the rate will then be mado 69 cents. Above all W. P. Dearmitt, who has whipped the miners at every turn heretofore, has been brought over and will pay the 64 cent rate, as he does not have the company stores.
The effect of mis settlement is to advance the mining rate in Ohio aud Indiana from 51 cents to 69 cent. It also holds up the rate in Illinois and orin^s the strike there to an end. 1c ai.-. changes the end of the scale year from April 30 to Jan. 1. This is the firsttime a differential lias ever been granted against company stores, and it is expected it will result in having all of them abolished.
An evidence of this came yesterday, when W. P. Rend of Chicago offered to abolish his company store at Reismg, Pa., and agreed to loan the miners enough money to operate it on a cooperative basis.
As another result of the compromise the operators propose to form a new association on different lines from the old one, and every operator in the district will be included in its membership.
Practically all the credit for the victory is being given to Secretary-Treas-urer Pat McJBride, who mapped out the entire campaign.
Another feature of the miners' victory is that a convention of miners and operators is to be held on the second Tuesday of October in each year to fix the mining rate for the next year so that the rate for each year can be settled before the scale year expires. The first joint convention under this agreement is to be held next October, and the rate made then will go into effect on Jan. 1, 1896.
MINERS' PARADE.
But Little Prospects of Getting Their Demands or Going Hack to Work,
ISHPEMING, Mich., Aug. 3. The Ishpeming and Negauuee strikers held a big demonstration in Ishpeming yesterday. Almost 3,000 men were in the line of march from the park at noon. Some of the speakers made an effort to in-

Business cotton goods lias been the such times as there is a break in the largest in July for several years, but not large as to new orders. A further advance of 1 1-4 cents per yard has been made with moderate demand for some bleached and brown goods, and prices are firm for sheets and drills, while colored cottons are quiet with occasional advances. Sales of wool have been only 6,072,450 pounds for the week, against 9,336,400 in 1892.
speak of effecting a settlement that way are given but little encouragement. Many of them desire to go back to work, but the majority are opposed to it, the latter insisting on recognition of the union by the companies. It is certain, however, that the companies will not recognize the union in any regard and will keep the mines closed until
ranks of the organization. The companies have all paid off their men in full this week and are preparing for an indefinite shut down of their works.
DURANT'S
Ilia
DEFENSE..
Attorneys
Will Try To 1'rove an Alibi.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 3.—It is said that counsel for Theodore Durant, charged with the Emanuel church murders, will attempt to prove an alibi by the testimony of members of his family and his friends, but it has not been determined as yet whether to put the defendant on the stand or not.
If the people present a strong case of circumstantial evidence a strenuous effort will be made to throw an unknown party into the case, who will resemble Durant to such an extent to permit a mistake in identification. It is thought that the best the defense expects is a disagreement of the jury.
Colorado Not in It.
DENVER, Aug. 3 —Colorado will not be represented by an exhibit at the Atlanta exposition. This decision was reached at a meeting of the Colorado board of managers yesterday on account of the refusal of the managers of the exposition to provide sufficient space in one building for all the individual exhibits from this state. The Colorado legislature appropriated no money, for a state exhibit at Atlanta.

COLUMBUS, O., Aug. 3.—After two turbulent sessions yesterday the Ohio Populist succeeded in adopting a plat* form and naming a state ticket. They adjourned late in the afternoon, but some of the more influential members of the party are not pleased with the results. General Jacob S. Coxey was triumphant in everything, and it was the predominence of Coxeyism and his novel ideas that doesn't suit some of the conservative Populists. Aside from the indorsement of the Omaha platform the indorse nt of Coxey's nonmterest bond .v me and good roads bills, and the denoui# ing of the trial of Debs was the principal points in^he platform.
