A New Link in the Chain of Cir
cumstantial Evidence.
IT POINTS TOWARD THE ACCUSED.
It Is Intimated That II Was She Who
ltobbed thc House Previous to the Mur»
ders, and That Her Father Knew It and
Refurt«*<l to Proterutu the Ciirl.
Fall HlVIsn, Mass., Sept. 29.—New light
that will no doubt have un important Is-ur
ing on the trial of I.lzzic Borden has been
ihi-own upon the r.ii-l. n «.f tin ruunlcu-il
'ir and Mrs. Andrew J. Bor«len, which
Jccurml on June 24, 1H»1. it will be rc
mcmlm-isl that the facts of this robbery
ha«l lx?en kept secret and were not brouglit
to the ]>ublic notice until after the tnys
terious murder of the old couple. Thepo
Hélice, after a long investigation of tiie mat
rer. wen- perfectly satisfied that they could
place the tiiii-f under arrest, but thin never
Mscurred because, it is stated, Mr. Borden
ieclined to press tiie ebargu.
Mr. Borden reported the robbery on the
Afternoon of the date mentioned. He said
bis own room over tiie kitchen had been
uttered and a desk used for his private pa
pers broken open. From this desk luul la-ea
taken eighty «iollars iu bills, thirty dollars
in gold coin, a number of horse car tickuts
for use by directorsof tlie.company, a lady's
zolil watch, a lady's gold watch chain with
tassel charm, a lady's pixketlsxik made of
Russian leaf lier and some trinkets of more
jr less value.
All the articles except the money and
tickets belonged to Mrs. Borden, and in the
' stolen pockettiook was aiock of hair, which
the old lady dearly prized. The private
papers of Mr. Borden were scattered about
inside the desk, and some of them appeiircil
to tiuvc liceii the subject of scrutiny liy tin
thief.
■ No Tcares of u Burglar.
■ Captain (then Inspector) Desmond and
■ Inspector Perron were put on the Citxe.
■ 1'key found that none of the memliers of
■ the family had bei-u away from tiie house
H during the «tu;. Ali the dixirs, as far ils
■ they knew, were locked the night liefere,
■ when the articles were sufe in tiie «lesk.
■ The burglary was committed sometime m
■ the forenoon. The lirst clew the inspectors
H fourni was in u duor at the head of the
H stairs which opens into Mr. Honlcn's room.
■ A tenpeuny nail was found sticking from
■ the keyhole. The head of tiie pail was on
■ the outside of the iloor. It was lirst thought
■ that tile lock had been picked, but a mi
Hiimte examination showed that it lmd not
■ i'H-en tampered with at all. A thorough
■ search of the premises failed to reveal any
■ traces of the burglar.
181 The officers reported what they had
■ learned to Mr. Borden, and later luul a talk
■ with Mrs. Borden, Lizzie Borden. Kmniu
■ Borden and Bridget Sullivan. The detec
■ live shadowed crooks and other officers
■ rode on the-horse cars to liu«l if possible
■ some one using thc stolen tickets. Cou
^Jductors had seen none of the pasteboards,
■ neither did the officers lind trace of any.
■ None of tiie stolen jirojK-rty was ever rc
covered, altimugh jiawnshops and other
^8l>laces where a professional burglar would
Htry to palm off his ill gotten goods Were
searched.
I An Important Link.
I Finally the inspectors sent for Mr. Borden
land told him that they could arrest the
Ithiefat any time. They told Mr. Borden
Isomething which astounded him, and the
lease was dropjxxl very quietly at the old
■gentleman's reijuest. He told the poli«*
■authorities that he did not care about the
I money or the watch, bat he wanted the
I chain and lock of hair, because Mrs. Borden
I prized t hem beyond all worth. The deteo
I lives had worked very, secretly in the
I matter. Newspaper men were kept in the
I dark about the whole affair until the exeit
I ing hours following the discovery of the
I murdered old couple. Then the fact that a
I mysterious roblx-ry had occurred was de
I vcloped, but the police were loath to give
I any information to the reporters.
I Some of Mrs. Borden's friends, who be
I came possessed of some facts regar«ling the
I theft, made statements which were worked
I on by the newsjmjier men. Chief Hilliard
was seen in his office and told just what has
Ixsmi written. He showed u great deal of
surprise, and when questioned about
the matter lie said: "I'm not ready to go
into that matter yet. I must find if any
one has been giving information from this
department. Home of the statements are
true; some are not. No, I will not talk
about the matter."
I The facts concerning this mysterious rob
I Iiery, it is umlerstixxi, will be more thor
I oughly elucidated at the trial, and are ex
I jx-cted to form an important part of the
I government's case.

DON'T FEAR CHOLERA.
TIh* Fiunoun SpcdiitlHt, PettenkolTer, Tel!«

lit
f pt. 29.—The correspondent in
the International «Telegram
Ift)KliOX,
riel-many
company semi* from Munich an Interview
with Ur. von Petteukoffer concerning the
imtitrv ,f tile cholera epidemic. Dr. Pet
tenkott-r at once declared that the cholera
is » in mounts cions epidemic, and that the
spreading of the epidemic in entirely de
pendent on sanitary conditions of the local
ity where it lirst shows itself.
During thirty years I'eUenkofTer hus
made tiie cholera a special study in all
parts of the world, and in ids opinion the
theory that weli persons are infected by
sick persons through linen or clothes is er
roneous. The coutagiou is conveyed, lie
says, from organism to organism only
through food or drink and fetid smells.
He maintains that, the Hamburg epi
demic is proof of Ids theory that local
conditions are responsible for an epidemic.
After giving full ereilit to Professor
Koch's discovery of the comma liaeillus,
PettenkolTer severely criticized the meas
uivs ut present in vogue and decreed by
the central authorities in Berlin. He de
nied that isolation or quarantine measures
had any value whatever. No quarantine
would save u place from infection. In a
city which was exposed to cholera by its
trade with f«>reign ports the pre
ventive would Ik- found in good *.nking
water, a complete system «if sewerage, per
fect sanitary arrangements iu even tlie
lowest quarters, airy houses and clean
courtyards. A city with such advantages,
he said, need never fear the spread of
cholera.
PettenkolTer, in continuing, said that
nobody need Ik- afraid of infection from
person to pel-son. l)n the contrary, people
ought to remuiii where the cholera upjs-ars
uud assist the stricken. They should,
however, take care to live » regular life
and not tempt infection from foul water
or food, the only agents to spread infection.
Stamped Out In New York.
New York, Sept. 29.—There is not even
a trace of cholera to lie found in this city,

Cold Water fur (.'h«ilera.
HaviiiUUO, Sept. 29.—-Therehave been 121
fresh cases of cholera in this city today, or
twenty-five fewer than yesterday; tifty
threc deaths, or four fewer than yesterday;

TKRBE HaL'TK, Ind.. Sept. 29.—The
world's rccortl for the light harness horse,
rither trotting or juicing, was lowered yes
terday when Nancy Hanks trotted a mile
in 2:tl4. Thc lU.UOO people who saw it sat
brcutlilcss for a moment after the little
mare passed under t he wire, and even Dohle,
always modest of sp«s>ch, declared when
carrieil to the judges' staml on the shoul
ders of tIn- crowd and called upon for a
speech, that he was "hoarse and Nancy
Hanks went so fast it took my breath away."
It was near 5 o'clock when .Starting Judge
Walker announced that Nancy Hanks
would go to lH-at tier record of 2:97, made
over the regulation track at St. Puul. Tiie
daughter of Happy Medium hod been
worked two miles in 2:86 and 2:25respective
ly earlier in the afternoon. The runner,
Alie Lincoln, stoisl opposite the flag while
Naucy was taken well up the stretch for
the sum, Coming like a whirlwind down
the stretch, Abe was at her wheel and Dohle
nodded for the word.
Th«' Clip Was Terrific.
The clip was u terrific one. She was at
the eighth in iö' y seconds uud at the first
quarter in HI seconds. The second,
an "up hill" quarter, was done in 81 ffj sec
onds, the liait being reached iu liffJV The
excited crowd lx»g»u to cheer, but at a
word of admonition from the judge lapsed
into silence. This was only broken try mur
mured "Ohs" when the thinl quarter was
done in seconds. Even the judges were
apjialled at the wonderful burst of sjKK-d
and thought the man- was running away.
So fast did she come that no one could tell
her gait.
On she flew and into the stretch, never
faltering. I)ob!e,with his steady hum! and
clucking gentle "whoas" to keep her
steudy, squareil her away for the great
liight home. Even her light hoofls-iits
sounded loud to the silent crowd. As Do
hle gathered her for the final effort be
touched her gently with the whip, gave
two of those masterful lifts of ins, and the
world's record, either pace or trot, was
lowered 1 % seconda and thc record for reg
ulation track three sobonds.
Hoble Thinks She Can Ho Bettor.
The excitement over the great mile did
not really begin until evening when the
crowds gathered about the hotels. Nearly
every noted driver hi the country is here,
and all ure unanimous in declaring that it
was the most wonderful mile ever done.
Mr. Dohle received hundreds of telegrams
of congratulation from all ever the country.
He wired Mr. Bonner, "Nancy Hanks, 2:04
over a regulation track." This is a gentle
hint that the owner of Maud S. and Suuol
can present him the ♦5.000 offered for the
first horse to trot a mile iu 2:0J overu tegu
lation track.
Mr. Doblc was asked if he thought Hanks
had reached Iter limit. He sail! the track
was just right, tiie mare waa just right and
the driver was at himself. As to the Jiossi
hilitiesof Hanks lowering her record, he
thought t hat as she is only six years old
she woiilil train on next year and lie even
a better mare than now.
Tiie official time of the mile is: :31, 1:02;«,

This Is the Way the Foree Mill Strikes a

A negro writes the following to a r lor
i paper:
••Them is not so l„,iiest intslllimnt

and patriotic colored man in the Nontli,
who has the interest and welfare of ills

pie, by indorsing n policy
have a direct tendency to i
in every Southern community, ami at the
same time j aralyze and indefinitely stis
jietid every branch of industry by which
the colore«! population is supported uud
maintained.
"The passage of the Force bill would
place the negro population iu a very
serious position in the South. They
would have all the odds against them in
the great contest that would necessarily
follow the operation of such a measure,
and, unless the negro played his part
wisely, with an eye single to his own
true interest, he would lose all and be
irretrievably ruined in the end.
"No Force bill, under the present cir
cumstances, can place the race iu that
exalted position in the government
which it craves; it must reach that goal
by or through some other process, if it is
to be attained at all.
"No congressional Interference ran
better the political condition of affuirs in
these states; for, if the negro through
a lack of sufficient intelligence and of an
influential moral courage, has demon
strated to the country that he is as yet
incapable of exercising tho right »f
suffrage (unless it is propjK'd up with
bayonets and superintended by a military
dictatorship!. It is Indeed better that he
withdraw from acting the political farce
and wait with patience such a time as
he or his children, shall be sufficiently
qualified to discharge this high trust
with honor and credit to themselves,
without any unnecessary interference by
political tricksters or scheming politi
clans.
"The greatest obstacle to the eleva
tion, progress and usefulness of the negro
race is the alluring and, seductive inSu
ence of politics. It is their evil gcuius—
the Pandora's box from which all the
contention and strif* between the two
races have ever emanated it lias been
the overshadowing cloud which has
threatened and menaced the peace and
good order of this section for the past
twenty five years, and it will continue
to harass aud disturb the peace of every
southern community until the Republi
can party ceases to fondle and humbug
the negro; and leaves him free to turn
bis attention from the ideal and delusive
notions of political greatness to that of
acquiring a more perlect education, ami
to engage himself in those industrial
pursuits of life which alone can make him
independent and respectable.
"If such n en as the Hon. Fred Doug
lass amt his thousands of admirers were
to devote half as much time to looking
after the moral, intellectual and indus
trial qualities of tho race here in the
South as they have spent in looking
after its fancied political interest, there
would he no canse for the present sorrow
aud grief to the President over the
wretched political condition of tho
southern negro."
