SENT TO AFRICA MILLIONS 11 Eunners Forced to Find Man on Dark Continent Before Woman Gets Fortune. New York. May 11. Mrs. Katherlne Holmes, a trained nurse, ot No. 19 Hal sey street, Newark, when she finishes her present engagement to attend a patient In East Orange, will lay aside the cap and apron forever. Mrs. Holmes was informed yesterday that, through the sale of a mine In which she was Interested, she will receive $1,200,000. Mrs. Holmes is the widow of Dr. Howard Holmes of Cincinnati. Dr. Holmes died 16 years ago, ami the young widow was left with a fortune. While traveling in Meacloo a few years la-ter she waa Induced to Tut this fortune in a silver mine a few miles from the City of Mexico. She invested $160,000. and her brother-in-lawt Hobert Holmes, put In a like amount. Thv were unable to interest other fcapltal -to work the mine and for years the - investment brought no return. Time andi again they were urged to sell at a great loss, but refused. Then came a time when,' her fortune gone, the woman had to turn to her profession for a living. Worked la the Oranges. A year ago she took up her residence In .Newark, and roost of her patients since then have been in the Oranges. Some four months ago a vein of cop per was struck that caused a Mexican syndicate to make an offer of $2,600,000 for the Holmes property. Mrs. Holmes, watching; the hours go by on the clock In the stlllnesu of the night and ministering to the wants of the sick, was ready to sell, but the brother-in-law, a botanist, was In the heart of Africa. It was known he was on an expedition that had gone into a country hundreds of miles from civili sation in search of specimens. The Mexican syndicate, anxious to close the deal, interested the Mexican government, and the Dlas administra tion. In turn, asked the British govern ment to aid In trying to get a letter through, explaining the situation to Pro fessor Holmes. The consul at Freetown sent runners up the country, and after a month of travel the expedition was located. Then the papers were sent on. Yesterday Mrs. Holmes, at the bedside of her pa tient, received the following telegram: "Communication from Freetown. Holmes reached; will sell. Offer of two million and a half accepted. Jose Fran cisco, Mexico City." Mrs. Holmes Dellfhted. "I never was so delighted in my life," said the woman who haa found herself wealthy once more after years of hard work. "I have lived In an agony of sus pense since these negotiations have been on. I was fearful my brother-in-law might not be found. Before that there were years when it looked as though the property -never would be worth any thing. I am going to finish my engage ment' here, which will be over shortly, and then I shall go to Mexico. From there I shall go to London and meet my brother-in-law on his return from Af rica. "When It is all over I shall spend the remainder of my life, or at least some years of It. In travel. It is a life I love and - one that was interrupted by this Investment that has now turned out nor happily." : IT NOUS PASSENGERS HELD UP IH SUBWAY New Tork, . May .
