MINNESOTA CONGRESSMEN OX
FINANCE.
The New York Times has received re
sponses from 12:2 congressmen replying
to its telegram asking if they tavor a re
peal of the SiiF.iiMAN' law and what plan
of currency issue they prefer. Fiffcy
three Democrats and thiity-five Repub
licans favor repeal; eleven Democrats,
seven Republicans, and eight Populists
and Independents oppose it, twenty-six
in all, while eight are undecided. If
these opinions of about a third of the
whole represent the average of judg
ment, the repeal ot the act is certain,
though the substitute for it which will
be adopted, if any, is not to be inferred
from the answers. There is no one plan
having enough support to indicate prob
abilities of congressional action.
The replies of the Minnesota repre
sentatives, all of whom except Mc-
Cleary answer, show a willingness to
repeal the Sherman act. Boex favors
this, but conditions it on the free coin
age of silver at the present ratio, the
demonetization of gold, the voiding of
gold contracts and the issue of paper
money for services rendered and ma
terials furnished the government.
Flexcheb thinks "the country needs a
prompt and decisive financial policy by
the administration." It is regrettable
that the limits of a telegram precluded
Mr. Fletcher from explaining what
he meant by this, but if he wishes to
show how the administration can adopt
any financial policy other than that
embodied in the laws of congress, the
Globe will gladly accord him all the
space he requires.
Mr. Baldwin- not only favors the re
peal of the Shkkman act, but he thinks
congress should be immediately con
vened to do it, in which he is en rapport
with the Globe, which still remains of
the opinion that it is a serious mistake
that congress is not now in session. Mr.
Reefer evidently does not take his
views of finance from Senator Davis.
whose eulogy of the Shkumax act we
repeated yesterday, for he wants it
wiped off the books at once. He com
pliments the Globe with an indorse
ment of its solution of the silver muddle
by the free coinage of silver on the
basis of its market value, and he joins
us iv opposition to any issue of bonds.
Whether tiiis is due to a change of.
heart on the part of Mr. Kikfku or is a
delicate acknowledgment that he rep
resents a Democratic, district and should
also represent its views, is, perhaps,
immaterial.
The wires played havoc with Con
gressman Hall's reply, making him
say: "Why not substitute [for the
Sherman act] free or equal coinage
on both motals, your new rates of bull
ion value giving honest bimetallism?"
—a statement that lacks Mr. Hall's
characteristic lucidity of expression.
He says that the Shkumax law must be
repealed. But it has given a home
market for silver, and its repeal may
precipitate ruin of the silver industry.
The suggestion mangled in transmiss
ion, as shown above, was, we infer, the
readjustment of ratios to present market
values, and then the free coinage of
both metals, which is honestbimetallism.
Other interviews in the Times and
elsewhere make it improbable that a
bill making the ratio conform to pres
ent values, about :24 to 1, would have
support enough to pass. It is already
apparent that those who favor this plan
foresee the opposition the siiverites
will make, and are stisrgestina a com
promise ratio of 20 to 1. No compromise
of that kind will settle the matter. It
will neither give us what we should
have, a par value dollar, nor, on the
other hand, will it be a cheap enough
dollar to satisfy the miners and cranks.
It is, of course, the only right thing to
do; the only thing the government has
the right to do: and it is what should
be done if possible. It was only the ap
prehension that it could not be carried
through congress that moved the Globe
to advocate the free coinage of silver on
a market values basis.
TAKE NO STEP BACKWARD.
The Globe is uncompromisingly op
posed to the rennposition iof even a
light revenue tax on sugar, tea or coffee"
or on anything now on the tree list. It
believ.es that the path of the Democratic
party that leads to permanent success is
forward, not backward. Its slow and
tentative steps forward became a firm
and decided stride at Chicago. The
mere promise of this rallied to the party
the supporting votes of the progressive
element of the voters. They gave it the
victory, and they alone. Is any one so
deluded as to think that the straddle of
1884, attempted to be forced 011 us again
by Whitney at Chicago, would have
brought to us the men of whom the
Greshams, . the Cooleys, : the Mc-
Vkaghs and the Keas are types? It
was the spirit of commercial freedom,
not of a mitigated slavery, that inspired
that fierce denunciation of protection
and the campaign which followed it,
and his senses are dull indeed who can
not see it. The Republicans, the pro
tected Interests, have keener perception
of the truth of the movement.
It is its realization of this that com
pels the' Globe to dissent from all these
temporizing expedients offered by its
contemporaries in its party. This com
pels it to dissent from the proposal of
its esteemed and estimable contempo
rary, the Courier-Journal, to lay an im
post on sugar, tea and- coffee, and from
its vivacious but somewhat demagogic
contemporary, the World, which would
make up the deficit by a tax on incomes,
laid on those above 510,000, less with a
view to just taxation than to catch the
approval of the mass of voters whose
incomes lie below that line.
It insists that the right and the politic
course is to call upon the states for
whatever sum may be deficient after the
revenues of a purely revenue tariff and
the internal tax are allowed fur. This
meiias, in plain English, the levying of
a direct tax for that amount on the
states, apportioned as now required by
the constitution, according to popula
tion, leaving, the states to their local
methods of collecting it from their citi
zens.
It urges this for many reasons. ■In
the iirst place, it is democratic and
American. It is frank, manly and hon
est. It says to each taxpayer: " i"our
share of the national burden is so much;
here is your receipt for it." It is a step
in the direction of a redemption of the
implied promise made at Chicago and
accepted by the voters who gave ps vic
tory that the movement of the party is
towards free trade. It is a step away
from the infamous method of levying
tribute on the basis of what men con
sume and exempting their wealth. It
will compel the attention of the citizen
to the expenditures of congress, and be
a check on its extravagance. He will :
no longer . measure the efficiency of
his congressman by the size \of the
appropriation he secures for his dis
trict when he sees tire figures in the col
umn of his tax receipt under the.cap
tion "U. S." increased by the tuxes for
needless public buildings and the „ im

costs, between three and four dollars to
collect a hundred dollars under the cus
toms and internal systems; it would cost
- nothing, even . for transmission to the
treasury, to collect the direct tax. / Let

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE. ,
St. Paul has a striking Instance in
which Christian science has measured
arms with disease and lost the battle.
Mrs. Jon>" Krey, who died Monday at
her home, corner of South Robert and
Annapolis streets, was a believer in
Christian science, though her fam lywas
in the habit of calling in a homeopathic
physician in cases of sickness. Her : af
fliction was typhoid ' fever, and she
placed herself under the Christian sci
ence treatment with the utmost confi
dence in its efficacy. The Christian
science people, therefore, had every
advantage; they were not hampered by
any doubt on the part of their patient.
It was - as fair a test of the power of
their treatment as could have been
asked.
It would seem that. these people can
have only to say, as an excuse' for' their
failure to cure, that the case was incur
able : and that it was Mrs. Krey's
allotted' time to die. It would ; ; not
answer to say simply that the case was
incurable, for their treatment . ema
nates,'as they holdout, from a power
which can accomplish all things; they
must add that it was her time to die in
order to present a semblance of plausi
bility. Thus it appears that the bul
wark of the treatment is in faith and
faith alone, for to be au adherent to it
one must believe through faith, not
actual knowledge, that all who die
under the treatment have reached their
allotted time of life.
Christian science people will tell of
the cures by the treatment of chronic
diseases which had been pronounced in
curable by regular physicians; of peo
ple prostrated with the worst forms of
rheumatism arising suddenly to walk;
of cripples suddenly finding themselves
.restored to perfect form, and of various
other miraculous cures. Not all of
them will go so far as to detail such
wonders: a good many will frankly ad
mit that consumption. and many other
ailings are beyond their power. But
the latter are less consistent than those
who claim to be able to cure everything,,
for the agency they assume to invoke is
all-powerful. Though inconsistent, the
ones who admit that there are com
plaints which cannot be reached by
Christian science are admitting the
truth. There is no well-authenticated
case on record of a cure by Christian
science of a case classed ameng the in
curables, such as cancer, consumption,
etc.; nor is there a well-authenticated
instance in which any cure can be
proven, without the exercise of faith on
the part of the observer or listener, to
have been effected by the treatment.
It is a well-known fact that a large
per cent of the illues3 which physicians
are called to treat is purely imaginary.
In this class of cases Christian science
has a field in which it can do effective
work. But wherever a patient fails to
recover speedily under the care of a
Christian scientist, it is just as well to
call in a good physician, who places his
reliance upon hntnan science.
THE GREAT NORTHERN CUT.
The circular of the : Great Northern
announcing a reduction of 825 in the
fare from Seattle and Northern Pacific
coast points, and a material reduction
from Spokane and Helena, to St. Paul,
is thankfully received by the public;
but it would be received with still great
er pleasure if it gave assurance that the
rates were to be permanent. The cir
cular holds out. however, that the cut is
made to bring the Northern Pacific to
terms which will be satisfactory to the
Great Northern. The Northern Pacific
is accused of carrying 75 to SO per cent
of its business both ways on a second
class basis with first-class accommoda
tions. Thus, passengers who should pay
$00 at Seattle for their tickets to St.
Paul secured them for $35. The cir
cular announces the reductions from
competing points only, indicating con
clusively that it is not intended to make
reduced figures permanent rates.
The Globe does not assume to say
that the Northern Pacific is guilty of
the charge preferred by the Great
Northern, but if it is, why has it car
ried so much of its passenger business
at the 835 rate ? Because at the ?t>o
rate it was unable to secure enough
passengers to make it worth while to
run first-class coaches. ;It seems clear:
that- these two transcontinental lines
will not be able to secure enough travel
at the |60 rate to pay for the operation
of passenger trains, .or, at least, first,
class coaches. Very lew people can
afford to pay so dearly, and the popula
tion of the coast points touched by
these roads is not large. The situation
is that the Northern Pacific carried SO
per cent of its passengers at the $35
rate, and was able to operate its passen
ger trains on that basis. It is much to
be hoped that both roads will come to
the conclusion that $35 will be more
profitable than the SCO rate. The ex
periment should be tried, and it is
i hopad that it will be.

curios was a snuff box or match box
made of a native bean and mounted in
silver. He wore a watch charm of
native gold hammered into proper
shape, and in every pocket be carried
something queer.
"It seems so strange for me to see the
prices charged for the most common
fruits in this country," he said. "In
Australia we can purchase bananas
for about 10 cents per bunch, and those
large pineapples, for which the people
in this countcy pay 25 cents, we buy in
the market, and much finer ones than
are seen here, for 15 cents a dozen.
These parrots which I have with me I
paid 25 cents apiece for, and they will
sell for at least SlO apiece in Chicago, if
I care to sell them. I expect to give
them to my brother and his friends,
however. I have not seen him for
twenty years, and he was only a boy
then. Ido not suppose that I will knovv
hiiu.
"Australia is one of the best coun
tries in the world for a young man to
co to for the purpose of making a fort
une. There are millions of acres of un
improved property there, which has
nevar been explored as yet. The sheep
rsising industry is oue of the principal
industries of the country, and the
gold mines are a larire portion of the
valuable industries. I know a man who
has made a large amount of money out
of the killing of kausraroos. He ships
the hides to England and America for
the making of shoes, and he eets a
bounty from the crown for the killing
of the animals. These animals have
multiplied to such an extent that they
completely overrun some parts of the
continent, and eat more of the grass in
the sheep pastures thau the sheep them
selves do. They eat large quantities of
grass, and I have known of instances
wher*} the sheep have been unable to
get enough to eat where ihe grass was
in the best of condition. The clumsy
marsupials would gather in droves and
drive the sheep away. Of course, you
have heard of the rabbit plague, which
has caused so much trouble to the farm
ers of that country. The rabbits were
brought to Australia in small numbers,
and it is supposed that they found the
conditions such that they multiplied
much faster than In any other country.
'•They are killed by the million, but
there does not seem to be any decrease
in their numbers. At some seasons of
the year the farmers and bushmen
organize for a rabbit slaughter and the
little pests are killed in immense num
bers. No one takes the trouble to save
their skins or their meat and the dead
bodies can be found In all parts of Aus
tralia. The hunters kill them with
clubs and stones, and it is rare that
powder.and shot are wasted upon them,
unless there is a large bunch together.
"Some of the most prominent business
men of the country have been convicts
who were sent to Australia by the gov
ernment. They became good citizens,
and it was these men who developed
the country. Some of them were
natural criminals, but the better class
of convicts have kept them out of the.
way. Now and then we will hear of
soinsof the bushrangers who still com
mit depredations, but they are very few.
I am very much enthused over my
adopted country, and thiuk it is a good
plan for a young man to so there."
WORK AN»» r.,.,.iSURR.
Druggists Evince %Vistloni in Do-
in«j Their Business.
The Minnesota Pharmaceutical asso
ciation closed its annual session at Lake
Minnetonka Wednesday night with a
reception and ball at the Hotel St.
Louis. There were a number of ladies
from this city present who, together
with the druggists from other parts ot
the state and their wives and friends,
put in an enjoyable time. Duriug the
day an excursion of the lake was made
by steamer, which was much enjoyed.
The business meetings of the associa
tion were interesting. Dr. L. A. Hard
ing read a paper on ''Chemistry and Its
Relation to Pharmacy." He also read a
paper on "Glycerine Suffusotines" that
was very interesting, and drew out
favorable criticism and discussion. The
association also discussed the duties of
the druggists to their clerks. The past
work of the pharmacy board was also
discussed and universally commended.
A discussion as to the place of holding
annual meetings developed the fact that
it was the general-sentiment that a lake
resort is preferable to a city for the
meetings. Acting on this view, it was
decided to hold the next meeting of the
association at Lake Minnetonka, June
12 and 13, 1894.
The officers elected for the ensuing
year are: President, J. ti. Stiles, of St.
Louis Park; first vice president, L.
Trauteiuan, Wabasha; second vice
president, Johu N. Gayner, Rose City;
secretary and tieasurer, Cnarles T. Hel
ler, of St. Paul, who was chosen for" the
third term. The executive committee
is composed of F. 11. Haiuert, of Minne
ano is; 11. P. Barclay, of Stillwater.and
W. A. Frost, of St. Paul.
The dancing last night in the dining
room of the St. Louis continued until
11 o'clock. An hour was then taken for
refreshments, after which the pill
makers and their friends took a special
train for the Twin Cities.

Badly Needed Renovating.
In speaking: of the shortag» in the
city's part of the court house and city
hall fund, a member of the commission
said yesterday the rooms in the building
which had over, cleaned, painted and
decorated needed it badly, and for this
reason the work had been ordered. He
was of the opinion that the matter
would be adjusted without any trouble,
as there was about $12,000 at present in
the fund raised for the completion of
the building, and the bills for the work
could be paid from this amount.

The New System by Which Kvery
Atom of Fuel Is Consumed.
According to the Berlin correspon
dent of the London Standard, the prob
lem of smokeless combustion of coal
seems at last to be solved by a newly
patented process which is exciting an
immense sensation in Germany. The
patent lias been taken out by a com
pany, which has already made contracts
with a large uuinber of commercial and
industrial concerns— among others with
the North German Lloyd, the Hauiburg-
Americau Packet company, Schichau
and the Vulcan works at Stettin— for
the introduction of its new system of
nring.
In the construction of their new firing
apparatus, the. patentees haya departed
from all the methods hitherto em
ployed. The coal is no longer burned
in lumps, but is reduced to powder by
means of the ordinary contrifugal mills.
The new system, which is called "auto
matic and smokeless coal-dust firing,"
is extremely simple. At the place
where hitherto the coal was introduced
iuto the tire grate, that id to say. at the
furnace door, there is a movable pear
shaped apparatus.consisting principally
of a tire chamber lined with tire brick.
One aperture of this hollow pear opens,
in the direction of the axis of the boiler,
into the mouth of the hitherto employed
furnace, from which the fire grates, "fire
bridges, etc., have been removed. The
opposite aperture of the hollow pear is
intended to. admit a current of air. By
means of an ingenious automatic
contrivance, coal dust, supplied through
a funnel placed above the current of
air, i 3 continually conveyed into the
current of air and "thence iuto the lire
chamber, where it is immediately
brought into combustion by means of
the small fire which in placed there.
When this has once taken place the
coal dust conveyed by the current of air
continues to burn in one regular, in
tense flame. The current of air which
brings the coal dust into the apparatus
is regulated so as merely to convey the
dust thither, whereas the further supply
of air necessary for combustion is sent
into the zone of combustion at right
angles and in radiating jets. By this
arrangement the coal dust and the air
in the zone of combustion are intimately
and thoroughly mixed, whilst the speed
of the current which introduces the coal
dust is diminished.
It will thus be seen that the combus
tion of the coal which this mathod pro
duces is extremely thorough, for each
particle of fuel floats in the air and is
brought into contact with the oxygen
necessary for its combustion, so that it
is totally consumed the moment it
enters the sphere of combustion. The
proof of its being totally consumed is
seen in the fact that not even a trace of
smoke is perceptible. With the pressure
of a finger the supply of coal dust and
ot draught can be perfectly regulated,
and thereby an equable generation of
heat secured.
Among further advantages of the new
system of firing _ may be mentioned the
diminished wear and tear of steam boil
ers, the absence of fire grates and fire
bridges, the ability to start or to stop
the fire instantaneously, the absen.ee of
heaps of cinders and ashes, and the
avoided necessity for high chimneys. It
is further claimed that this method of
firing is suitable not only for steam
boilers, but also tor all kinds of heating,
welding, smelting.: and burning proc
esses, that it can be '. used in all sorts
of manufactures, and that by it not only
ordinary coal, but also brown coal, char
coal, turf powder, etc., may be burned.

der Case.
Evidence Regarding the Buy
ing of Prusslc Acid Ruled
Out.
Defense Introduces Witnesses
Who Saw a Man Around
the House.
Contradiction of Some of the
Witnesses of the
State.
New BEDFonD, Mass., June 15. — The
tenth day of the Borden murder trial
opened with a big crowd in attendance.
Miss Borden was overwhelmed with
floral offerings this morning, and ap
peared in excellent spirits, despite the
seeming disheartening significance of
yesterday's proceedings. The first wit
ness called was Charles 11. Lawton,
a New Bedford druggist of twenty
years 'standing, and he wasjfol lowed by
other druggists, who were questioned as
to the character ami uses of prussic
acid. The defense vigorously contested
every point of the government's testi
mony looking to the prisoner's attempt
to purchase prussic acid. Preliminary
evidence was introduced under objec
tions and exceptions. Druegist Lawton
testified that he unew of no other than
medicinal purposes for which prussic
acid is used, and Daniel Hathaway,
analytical chemist, said it is unsuitable
for cleaning furs and very volatile,
while Dr. Dolan said that its vapor is
very poisouons. Finally, after consul
tation, the justice announced that
the preliminary evidence did not
come up to the proffer by the prose
cution, and excluded the entire evi
dence of attempting purchase of
prussic acid. After introduction of ex
hibits, the commonwealth rested its
case and a recess of fifteen minutes was
taken. During the recess, the prisoner
talked earnestly with Mrs. Fessenueu,
of Boston, the only lady who has spoken
to her in the court room.
The Di-l <■)!•»<■.
After the recess Mr. JenniußS opened
the case for the defense. He said they
would show the previous spotlessness
of the prisoner's character, and the
absence of intent, purpose, or opuor
tunity. The prisoner sat with her
face buried in her hankerchier
during counsel's plea. After dis
tinguishing circumstantial from direct
evidence and illustrating the dangerous
character of circumstantial evidence,
he said every link in the government's
chain of evidence must be proved be
yond a reasonable doubt, including mo
tive, wespon, exclusive opportunity and
intent. The defense would show the
relation between father and
daughter which excluded motive
for killing him, and the motive to kill
the mother alone wouid not be enough,
for the government claimed that the
same person killed both. Ho claimed
that the weapon had not been connected
with the defendant. Exclusive oppor
tunity would be negatived by showing
that other people were around at the
time of the murder; tnat others
entered the barn before the otticer who
testified that its floor was covered witli
dust, and that the burned dress was
covered with paint, and was not worn
on the day of the murder. On the sub
ject of
<'ircimiK(uiitlal Evidence
Mr. Jennings addressed the jury thus:
"You are not to say how this mysteri
ous murder was committed, but to say
by whom. You are simply to answer as
to this defendant, to say you are satis
tied beyond a reasonable doubt that
she is'uuilty or innocent, and a
reasonable doubt is a doubt for
which you can furnish a good reason. I
want to *ay that there is. not one par
ticalof direct testimony against Lizzie
Andrew Borden to connect her with
this crime; it is wholly and absolutely
circumstantial. It is not for you
to unravel the mystery of how
these people died, but to say
whether this woman did the deed
or not. Unless by the evidence you can
tie this woman, to the bodies of the
murdered persons you must let her go
tree. We contend that with the evi
dence thus far produced there is no
motive shown for this woman to do
the deed. Y^y will find that a
motive as one of the links in the
chain becomes of tremendous impor
tance. The government's chain is that
whoever killed one killed the other,
and where they have assumed to show a
motive for the killing of her own
mother, there is none for the killing of
her own father.
In Measuring the motive
you have got to apply it in this case as
between the irirl and her own father.
Tne blood which was shown on the axes
lias disappeared; the claw-headed
hatchet lias disappeared from the case.
The attempt lias been made here to
surround this house; to completely
shut it in; but we shall show
you that there were others about
that House on the day of the
murder. We shall show you that Med
ley's cake-tvalk in the barn existed in
his own Imagination and that peoplu
were in that barn and all over it before
he went there; we shall show you that
Lizzie, was in the barn just as she said
she was. We shall show you that this
dress was soiled with paint gotten on
it early in March, and that it
was burned there in broad daylight
with windows and doors open, officers
and other witnesses about. We shall
show you that she had on the very dress
she says she had on. the one I Kave to
the officer myself. We shall ask you to
see, in view of the presumption of inno
cence, which the law says you shall
consider, that no blcod was found upon
her, and to consider the relations be
tween father and daughter."
During the opening Miss Burden cov
ered her tearful eyes with her hand
kerchief. Martha Chagnon, a pleasant
little French girl, was the h'rst witness
for the defense. She is a daughter of
Dr. Chagnon, whose yard is in the rear
of the Borden yard. On the night pre
ceding the Borden murder, Miss Chag
non said she heard a noise at about 11
o'clock at night. It
Sotiuded Like Poundiug
on the Border; fence, and lasted five
minutes. Marion' Chaijnoti, mother of
Martha, confirmed her daughter, but
the purpose of their testimony was not
disclosed. Charles N. Clifford and
Uriah Kirby both 9wore to having: seen
a strange man on the stops of the hitter's
house, near fy.ie Borden residence, at 11
o'clock the night before the murder.
Gifford said the man would weigh be
tween ISO and l'.w pounds, lie seemed
asleep. The witness spoke to the
man and his hat fell off. The
witness then went into the house.
The man did not seem to have been
drinking. He never saw the man be
fore or since. Kirby testified that lie
called out to the man who was on the
steps without getting a reply. Ills hat
was pulled down nearly over his eyes.
The witness shook him and finally left
him there. The mysterious personage
said nothing and did nothing.
Mark Chase, of Fall : liiver, a former
member of the police force of that city,
swore that about 10:50 a. in. of the
day of the murders he saw a buggy
standing in front or the Burden house.
In the carriage was a man with a brown
hat and black coat. He had never seen
the man or, the bugsy before. . Dr. Ben
jamin F. Handy, of Fall River, testified.,
that he went by the Borden house ou
the morning of the murders at 9 and
10:30.
"I saw a medium-sized young «»an,
very
Pale In Complexion,
with his eyes fixed on the sidewalk,
passing slowly towards the south; he
was acting strangely: in consequence
of his appearance I turned in my enr
rioge to watch him as he went by ; I
have a faint idea that 1 had seen him
before."
Mrs. Delia S. Manley. who lives on
Second street, stepped up against the
railing, and, in answer to a question by
Mr. Jennings, said she was familiar
with the street and the grounds about
the Borden house. She was passinc tho
Borden house with Mrs. Hart,
when she saw a young man at
tired in a suit of white standing
by the Borden gate. That was about
D:4o. She had not aoticed the young
man when she first came along. In an
swer to questions she said that there
was nothing peculiar about his clothing.
George T. Borden, a relative of the de
fendant, testified that he entered the
house the day after the mur
der, finding the doors unlocked.
Walter P. Stevens, who, at the time of
the tragedy, was a reporter for one of
the Fall Hiver dailies, was called to the
stand by Mr. Jennings. His testimony
was the most important for the defense
that had come out up to this time. He
went to the Borden house on the morn
ing of the tragedy in the regular course
of business. He went through ihe
grounds and out to the barn.
Contradicted .Yledley.
"While I was in there,'' he said, "I
heard three persons walking about in
the upper part of the barn."
Policeman Medley, it will be remem
bered, has sworn tbat there were no
traces of footsteps in the dust on the
floor of the barn loft when be went up
there to make an investigation to ses
if there were any traces of foot
prints. The witness said that he did
not see Medley about, and remained ir
the barn only a moment or so. Herman
Kobinski, an ice cream peddler of Fall
River, was called. He said he went bj
Hie Borden house In his wagon on the
morning the murders were committed.
"What did you see".'"
"I saw a lady come out of the barr
and go to the stairs at the north side ol
the house."
"How did she go."
"She was walking slowly," said tin
witness.
"She wont in tinder the stair.-."
"Did you see her (to into the house?'
"1 don't know about that."
Robinski said it was not the servan;
he .-saw. He could not tell bow sh« was
dressed. Mr. Knowlton asked aboul
where he had seen the woman. He waj
some distance from the house, lie -aid
Her back was toward the bam. Ther
Robins tci caused something of a sensa

"Did you say anything to anybodj

"Yes."

"1 told him all about It."
"Did you tell him what time it \va:

"Yes."
"What time was it."
"It was utter 11 o'clock."
"How much after."
lie was not sure about that, but hi
knew it was aftei 11 o'clock, kobinsk
said he had sold things to Bridget Sulli
van aod knew her face. Two boys then
testilk-d that they visited the Bordei
bam just after the murder and
walked all around tin.' loft. The jury
retired at 4:48, while counsel argued
the admissibility of evidence of Joseph
L. >iay, who found, a man covered with
blood near Steep brook,. Auk. 10, wht
talked about the Borden murder. The
question was reserved until morning
