massi the capital of. Ashanti, recently,
escorged by 100 houssas,'undcr Captains
Cramer and Irvine, to present the king of
Ashanti with the ultimatum of Great
Britain, has returned here, bringing the
first authentic news of the. result of his
mission. The king of Ashanti has reject-
ed, the British ultimatum, but all an-
nouncements to this effect previously
made wem pure guesswork. The king
says that he prefers war to accepting the
terms of the British and adds that he is
fully prepared for it. '

The terms of the British ultimatum
were that the king should have a British
commissioner in his country, and that he
should place Ashanti under the protection
of Great Britain. He was given until to-
day in which to reply. .

A strong force of imperial and native
troops will now be dispatched to Kumassi
in order to bring the king to terms. Sir
Francis Scott, inspector general of the
Gold Coast force, who is now in England,
will leave for west Africa as soon as possi;
ble in order to organize the expeditionary
force, which is expected to begin its ad-
vance by th‘emiddle of December. In the
meantime troops will be sent here from
Lagos and other places. A strong body of
houssas will take part in the expedition.

Progress of the Sensational Holmes
Case In Philadelphia.

TESTIMONY OF MISS YOKE.

The Woman Who, According to the Pris-
oner. Is-His “'ife Gives Some Dam-
aging Evidence Against Him.
Wanderings of the Couple.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 1.—With the trial
of Holmes at least one-third on its way to
l‘ue end Holmes stands revealed in one
particular—the one of which so much has
been said, the one which has served to
weave so much romance about everything
he has done since the searchlight of the
law has been turned on him.

Matters have come to such a pass that
the plain truth should be known about
Holmes, this fin de siecle annihilator, this
juiet, shrinking man who toys with chlo-
:oform, explosive liquid compounds. the
lancet, the ax, quicklime. incendiarism
and dynamite to accomplish his end—that
at removing from the face of the earth
people who might in the future tell some-
thing of him which might cause tempo-
rary embarrassment.

The intentlonis to make him under- ,

stood and without an attempt to present
an analytical study of the man. Holmes
ls the possessor of but a very small propor-
tion of the intelligence which has been at-
tributed to him. Of low, animal cunning
Ind vanity he has an amazing abundance;
3f real intelligence scarcely any.

The extraordinary intelligence of the
man has existed principally in the imag-
lnations of those with romantic tendencies
whose opinions have been influenced
largely by the glamour which must neces-
sarily surround such a star in the profes-
sional murderer’s firmament.

Mrs. Pitezel in her testimony of yester-
iay showed plainly her mental develop-
ment and how absolutely she could be
controlled by minds she considered supe.
rior to her own. She followed the instruc-
sions of Holmes blindly and without a
guestion.

The most flimsy excuses made by him
:he accepted without a murmur. And it
was because he dealt with- just such per—
:ons as Mrs. Pitczel and with children
ihat Holmes was so successful in his
lchemes. ,

A Lawyer Bunkoed.

When he came in contact with men of
intelligence he came to grief and has ever
;ince been in hot water. Holnfls went at

she laborious work of taking copious notes -

:vh en the proceedings were resumed today.

The first witness of the day was Sidney
L. Samuels, a lawyer from Fort Worth,
I‘cx. He was a typical man of law from
shat part of the country and testified with
1 characteristic breeziness and a briskness
3f manner that Were expected when he
itcpped on the stand. He was smooth
laced, sharp featured and had a great
wealth of curly black hair.

He said that an H. M. Pratt called on
him in his office in Fort Worth. The call-
er said he was interested in the construc‘
tion of a three story building. The prop-
erty was owned by Benton T. Lyman
(Pitezel), and he had a power of attorney
from Lyman: Pratt wanted to secure
iome money on a. note on the strength of
his representing Lyman. Samuels drew
up the note. He said he had done it to
his sorrow. '

“Were you there?” he was asked.

“Well, I should say I was, sub, ” was
'ihe indignant answer.

“And who was that Pratt?” asked the
iistrict attorney.

«The lawyer from Fort Worth, Tex,
pointed one long index finger at Holmes
and said: “He was, that individual sitting
In that cage. His features are now em-
bellished by a heard, but I recognize him
readily. ” The note was one on the strength
of which Holmes secured $5,000 of the in-
surance money from Mrs. Pitezel. The
note was at no time a legal obligation.”

The witness said there were two notes,
one for $5, 000, the other for $16, 000. He
[Get $16,000, and as he told it be exhibited
considerable feeling against Holmes, who
seemed to be amused by the testimony of
the lawyer.

Gary Recalled.

Inspector Gary of the insurance company
was recalled. Mr. Graham saying he pro-
posed to prove by him that Holmes was a
much married man and that Miss Yoke
was not his lawful wife, as he asserts, and
is therefore competent to testify against
him. ‘

Mr. Gary said he had seen at the vpris-
:ner’s house in Willamette, 1113., a woman
representing herself as Mrs. H. H. Holmes.
He identified a photograph of her. Last
December witness saw Holmes in Moya-
mensing prison, this city, when he told
him of his visit to Willamette.

Holmes then said he wanted to write a
letter to his wife and did so, asking the
witness to mail it. The envelope was not
addressed, Holmes leaving it to the wit-
ness. Subsequently witness had spoken
to Miss Yoke, known as Mrs. Howard.
She was not the woman he had seen in
Willamette. Holmes told the witness he
had deposited $1,000 of the insurance
money with a Mr. Blackman of Chicago,
his real estate agent, so that “Mrs.
Holmes” could draw upon it.

The defense entered a formal objection
to all the evidence of. Mr. Gary concerning
Miss Yoke, but was overruled. The lot-
ter was read to the jury.

Two other letters were offered, written
byHolmes, one from Columbus to H. M.
Cass, Chicago agent of the insurance com-
pany, giving him a detailed description of
Pitezel for the purpose of identificatioh.

Holmes Breaks Down.

At this point a side door in the room
was opened, and Miss Yoke, or Mrs. How-
ard, the alleged wife, was ushered in. She
was at once called to the stand and gave
her testimony in a whisper, which was
interpreted by the crier. ~

For the first time Holmes broke down.
He gazed steadily at her for afew seconds,
while his hands twitched nervously and
his lips opened and closed, but she care-
fully avoided meeting his eyes. Then he
suddenly bent forward overtho little desk
in his deck. and the tears began to trickle
down his cheeks. He drew his handker-
chief out and for a moment or two sobbed.
Then, quickly recovering himself, he dried
his eyes and bowed his head, busily engag-
ing himself with his notes, but, still occa-
sionally giving way to a sob.

Georgianna Yoke, for so she gave her
name, is a tall, slender woman of about 25
years, with fiaxen hair and blue eyes.
She was stylishly attired in black.

“Were you in St. Louis in June, 1894?”
was the first question.

“I Was. ’ ’

“Did you know the prisoner?"

“I did." '

“.By what names?"

“What was his business then?” 1
"The drug business.” 'E
“Did you know him when he was in jail

in St. Louis?”

“I did. ”

“Who engaged his attorneys then?”

“I did. I engaged Thomas B. Harvey.
[ called first on McDonald and Howe, and
they visited him, but refused to take the
case because of lack of funds.” '

In answer to further questions Miss
Yoke said: “I came to Philadelphia the
first week in August, 1894. The prison-
er met me at Broad Street station, and we
Went to 1905 North Eleventh street, the
loarding house kept by Mrs. Dr. Alcorm.
[remained there as long as Iwas in Phil-
Idelphia—four Weeks. The prisoner was
in the copying business, looking after
leases, deeds, etc.”

Mr. Graham then put a series of ques-
tions to fix Holmcs’ whereabouts on the
day the murder is supposed to have been
committed—Sunday, Sept. 2, 1894. '

“I was in my room on the evening of
Saturday, Sept. 1. I had been ill, part of
the time in bed. The prisoner was at
home. Some one called during the even-

'Ilng to see him, and he went down stairs.

When he came up, he said it was a mes-
senger from the Pennsylvania railroad,
and he was to see officials of the company
at the messengcr°s house next morning to
close out contracts for copying. After-
ward he said the caller was B. F. Pite-
zel. This was the day before we left Phil-
adelphia. ”
The Fatal Day.

"Was he at home the next day?”

“Part of the day. He went out at about
half past 10 in the morning and came
back between 3 and 4 in the afternoon.
He said he had been at Nicetown, a sub-
urb of Philadelphia. He hadpefore men-
tioned going away, and said we would go
home to Indianapolis. We were known
here by the name of Howard. We left on
the 10:15 train. The prisoner remained
with me in Indianapolis for a day or two.
Then he went away, saying he was going
to St. Louis. When he came back, he went
with me to my mother’s home in Frank-
lin, Ind. From there we returned to In-
dianapolis, and a few days afterward he
went to Philadelphia, saying the copying
deal had been closed. He returned from
Philadelphia about the 24th of the month
and he then went to St. Louis to meet

117.“??? Harvey.

“After we came back from Philadelphia
to Indianapolis he went twice to St.
Louis, and on one of these occasions he
said he was going to meet a. 'man from
Fort Worth who was to buy the block in
that city. When he returned from this
trip he said he had sold the block for
$35,000, $10,000 in cash and the balance
payable semiannually.

“After his return from Philadelphia he
told me hp had met Howe on the train.
He had the little girl with him and was
going to identify the body of his client’s
husband. Holmes told him to call on him
If he was needed for identification.
told me of the visit to potter’s field in
Philadelphia and of the finding of the
Identification marks after the dector had
failed to locate them. .

Holmes’ Wanderings.

“He next left me about Oct. 9 or 10
1nd said he was going to Cincinnati. 1
went to my mother's home in Franklin,
[nd., and j teed him in Detroit. We stop-
ped at the Lotel Normandy until the next
night and then went to a. rooming house
311 Park place. On Oct. 18, we went to
Toronto. We remained there until the
36th, I believe. During our stay there he
told me he was going 011' on a pleasure
trip”—

The defense interposed a strenuous ob-
iection on the ground that this line of evi-
dence was irrelevent and accused the dis
trict attorney of wasting the public time.
This drew a heated protest from Mr. Gra-
ham. Judge Arnold ruled out the partic-
ular question, but allowed the examina-
tion to procceed. -

“From Toronto we went to Prescott,
Canada, where we staid one day. Holmes
was with .me part of the time. Thence we
went to Ogdensburg, N. Y., where he was
with me nearly all the time. Then we
went to Burlington, Vt., where .we re-
mained three weeks or more, and next we
went to Boston. Here we remained a
week, when he was arrested.” _

“Did you, during all these travels, see
anything of Mrs. Pitezel or the children?”

“I did not.”

She identified Pitezel’s picture as a man

(she had known in Indianapolis.

Another sensation was furnished whgn
Holmes rose to cross question the woman
whom he calls his wife. She testified to
nothing new, however, and the court took
i recess. ‘

. Fire In Jamest0wn.

J AMESTOWN, N. Y., Nov. 1.—Fire broke
out in the Broadhead block in this city.
The fire originated in the paper box fac-
tory of W. M. Koehle & Co. on the third
floor, where it was confined by the firemen
after a determined fight. , The loss by
water will reach 310, 000.

.__________ V
CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 1.—Excitement
has been caused here by the report, gener-
|.lly believed to be correct, that three

f prominent Armenians of Trebizond, in-

cluding a prominent ecclesiastic, are to
be executed on the ground that they are
responsible for the recent rioting there.
According to statements made in Arme-
nian circles, about 800 Armenians were
killed during the fighting at Bitlis with
the Turks. The loss of the latter is said
to be trifling. ‘

Advices received here from Mush say
that the leading Armeniansof that local-
ity have been conferring with the repre-
sentative Turks of that city and neighbor-
hood as to the means to be adopted in or-
der to prevent the outbreak there of dis-
orders similar to those which have oc-
curred recently in different parts of Ar-
menia and which have resulted in so much
bloodshed. The Turks stipulated that the
American missionaries who are distribut-
ing relief to the sufierin g people of Sassoun
withdraw from there in three days; other-
wise they fear there will be arepetition of
the massacres which have just occurred at
Bitlis.

In view of the critical situation of affairs
outlined above, United States Minister
Terrell has advised the American mis-
sionaries to withdraw temporarily from
Sassoun. At the Same time Mr. Terrell
has notified the Turkish government that
the United States will hold it responsible
for the lives of the American missionaries
in Armenia.

Will Protect Missionaries.

The British charge d’afi'aires, Herbert,
has made representations of a natiu'e
identical with those of Mr. Terrell t0 the
porte. The result is that the Turkish offi‘
cials have been quickened into doing
something, and the government has de-
cided to send troops to protect the mis-
sion’aries. But here another complication
arises. The Kurds of Sassoun are only
held in check by the presence there of the
missionaries, fearing to cummit excesses
in their presence, and they threaten to
plunder the Armenians after the depar-
ture of the missionaries. Therefore, in
any case, fresh troubles are feared unless
the authorities take special measures for
the protection of the Armenians.‘ The
mere presence there of Turkish troops is
far from being a sufficient guarantee
against a repetition at Sassoun of the
bloodshed which has recently occurred in
other parts of Armenia. and nothing but
the most energetic action, it is asserted,
can avert a serious disturbance.

What the Hintchek Is.

In view of. these facts, the Armenian
patriarch has appealed to the different em-
bassies of tho powars here to intervene in
time to prevent another massacre. The

Turkish officials in reply again assert that ,

all the recent outbreaks here and in Ar-

menia are nothing more than the work of

the Hintchek, an Armenian secret society,
which has provoked all the riots. The
Hintchok was founded about ten years
ago at Tifiis, and its original objects Were
the printing and circulating throughout
Europe of Armenian literature calculated
to excite the people of Europe against
Turkey. The members are alleged to be
nihilists and anarchists of the most ad-
vanced types, and their spies and agents
are reported to be actively at work every-
where. The constitution of the society,
according to the Turk, calls for a‘ttacks
upon mosques and barracks, assaults upon
Turkish officials, resistance to tax col-
lectors and other revolutionary acts.

Concerning the political situation gen-
erally there is a feeling of the greatest un-
easiness. Nobody seems to know from:
what direction the next thunderclap will
be heard. There are all sorts of rumors
regarding the movements of Russian
troops on the Armenian frontier and con-
cerning the preparations for trouble mak-
ing by the Turkish government.

The financial situation, however, is so
transparently weak here that the ..:"r"‘s of
the porte to put down insurrecimns in
Armenia or meet more serious foes at the
frontiers are terribly hampered. The pres-
ent state of affairs cannot last much lon-
ger.

Has England Been Isolated?

LONDON, N ov. 1.—A Vienna dispatch
refers to the excitement caused by the ar-
ticle in the St. Petersburg Official Mes-
senger, accusing England of ambiguity
and double dealing in the Armenian ques-
tion. The article was undoubtedly i3:-
spired by the Russian government and
indicates a conviction that England has
been isolated in Europe.

The Crooked Sultan.

LONDON, Nov. 1.—A dispatch to The
Times from Constantinople says: “The
sultan declines to accept the names which
the grand vizier has suggested for the Ar-
meniancommission. He wishes to have
men who are in his own confidence.” '
