LIZZIE BORDEN'S TRIAL
A Sensational Murder Case Cammcnced
yesterday.
THE EVIDENCE IS CIRCUMSTANTIAL
Accused of Murdering Her Father and
Stepmother at Fall River
Last August
Naw l!kUKOHi, Mans., June 6. The
trial of Lizzie ltorden of Fall River,
charged with murdering her father, An
drew Jackson ltorden, and her step
mother, Abby lur(ee Borden, an aged,
wealthy and highly respected couple, on
the morning of August 4th, 1S33, began
here this morning. The most minent
criminal lawyers of the state are eui
ployed, and the trial promisee to be
most interesting and probably sensa
tional. The evidence is purely circum
stantial. On the day in question, as far
as is known, the only persons in the
house were the old couple, Lizzie and a
maid servant, Bridget Sullivan, who
was outside most of the morning wash
ing windows. Borden was out in the
morning, returning between 10 and 11
o'clock, and it was only a short time
afterward that Lizzie, after a short visit
to the barn, called to the servant to run
for the doctor as her father had been
murdured. Shortly afterward Mrs.
Borden was mis-svd, and a search re
vealed her body in an uper room, she

the law on their aide. Russia it taking
no part in the discussion. The forgeries
In the American case were so promptly
disavowed and withdrawn that they
have uot prejudiced our case at all. In
order to decide In our favor the tribunal
will have to put in the law some new
principle of International law, and
think there is a very fair prospect of
their doing this. The new law formu
lated by them would undoubtedly be
approved by all the nation. F.ven If
they should decide against us, they will
probably devise some means by which
the seals can be protected and preserved,
such as a closed season for instance."

Spokane, June 6. The bank of
Spokane Falls temporarily closed its
doors this morning. The suspension is
taken quietly. There is no run on the
other banks.
The Bank of Spokane Falls was organ
ized iu 1S79, and is the oldest bank
north of Snake river. It has always
been considered the strongest and safest
bank in Eastern Washington. The
hard times of the past year or so in
Spokane, it is thought, has placed the
bank in a tight fix for ready money. A.
M. Cannon, the president of the bank,
was an old-time resident of Portland,
and has been long known and identified
with the welfare of Spokane. lie has
many and diversified interests in that
country and is reputed to be a millionaire.
Bascomb H. Bennett, the cashier of
the bank, and son-in-law of Mr. Can
non, is also well known in this city,
where he was raised.
The bunk has a paid-up capital of
$l."H),000 and a surplus of $125,000.
There has been no statement muile of
the liabilities and assets.

Xe Yobk, June 5. Rev. Dr. Lyman
Abbott, in his sermon on the Briggs
case yesterday at Plymouth church,
Brooklyn, endeavored to prove that Dr.
Briggs, and not the general assembly,
during the last two years had defended
the true Christian faith, and that it was
not Dr. Briggs who was heretical, but
the general assembly was the one whose
logical result was infidelity. Dr. Ab
bott spoke of the battle which had gone
on from the days of Moses down to the
present between ecclesiastics and the
prophets, the one maintaining that the
institution is the essential thing and the
other that the individual personal life is
the essential thing, and there could be
no religious institution without. lie
exclaimed: "Heresy! What is heresy?
rorone tiling it is to declare that God is
not the father oi all mankind, and leaves
no door of access to himself save the one
door of a w ritten word that was not com
pleted till the human race had lontred
cried and prayed for their father for 2000
years."

Kiin vn Chicago llankt.
Chicago, June C In spite of the
fact that the Illinois Trust & Savings
bank remained opeu until S o'clock this
morning to give anxious depositors a
chance to draw funds, a new line began
to form before 8 o'clock this morning,
and at 10, the hour of oiHming, between
1,200 and 1,500 people were waiting at
the doors with their savings books. The
crowd was several times larger than at
any time yesterday. The bank is con
sidered absolutely sound. The assets
are figured up at over f'-'S ,000,000 and
its stockholders are estimated to be
worth fully loll ,000,000. At the other
savings banks the runs which began
yesterday teem to have increased in
size.
World' Fair Kataa.
Chicago, June 5. The opinion is
steadily gaining ground among railroad
men that they have put their world's
fairrates too high, and unless they lower
them they will stand a chance of losing
money. Letters by the hundreds are
pouring in upon them on this subject
and it looks as if there would be a
change before long. The meeting of the
Western Passenger Association was
harmonious today, and the adoption of
the agreement will probably be settled
if the terms of the Atchison & Topeka
are agreed to. It wants the Colorado
roads to come into the association, a
plan for cheap excuroions to the world's
fair, and a definite arrangement for the
redemption of tickets. A committee ia j
now working on this matter.
Nkw York, June 6. A dispatch from
Managua says: "After three days
given up to general rejoicing over the
downfall of Sacasa, whose departure was
hailed with joy, the commercial houses
have reopened and business is running
along as if nothing had hap)eued. It is
feared, though, that there may he a re
newal of ditliculties, as grumbling has
already begun regarding the method of
dividing the offices. The conservatives
have assumed a threatening attitude.
The canal question is an all-a!sorbing
one and will be brought liefore congress
immediately after it assembles. The
agents of foreign syndicates here will
try to wrest a concession from the
Americans, who, they assert, are really
doing nothing. The existing govern
ment has not money enough to pay otF
those who fought for it, and they are
engaged in robbing. Outside of the
towns property is not safe. It is
rumored among the revolutionists that
Sacasa has taken more than $ 1,"00,000
in cash out of the country, part of which
he sent out over a month aito; another
part his family carried away, and the
rest he took when he left. Tho report
is ridiculed by his friends. The advo
cates of annexation to the I'nited States,
or of an American protectorate, are
daily increasing. This is one of the
questions that will soon be brought be
fore congress."
Bogran will make an effort to become
president, and as he has not much
strength with the people he will have to
do so by means of a revolution. lie is
aid to claim to have private and official
backing from the I'nited States.

Andrew Carnegie predicts, in the June
nuuiW of the North American Keview,
issued today, the union of all the parts
of the English-speaking world, and sets
forth the advantages that would follow
an Anglo-American combination.
Mr. Carnegie argues that all influences
are now working toward a reunion of
the separated parts of the English
speaking world. The Americans, Mr.
Carnegie claims, differ less from the
Briton than the Irishman, Scotchman,
or Welshman. Tim marvelous develop
ment in recentjtimes of the facilities of
travel, he says, tends to bring into com
paratively close proximity countries
that are separated only by water. The
delegate leaving Liverpool or South
ampton for a conference at Washington
would reach that city in just almut the
same time as the delegate from the Pa
cific coast, or uh long as it took mem
bers from the nor'.h of Scotland to reach
Ixindon nt the time England and Scot
land were united.
The factor which Mr. Carnegie deems
most important in rendering political re
union possible and in his judgment in-

Constantinople, June 5. Keports
from several cities of Asiatic Turkey say
that the cholera has appeared in many
districts and is spreading rapidly.
Along the lower Tigris and the Shat-EI-Arab
rivers the people are dying by
thousands. Vt hole villages have been
deserted by those fleeing from the pest.
The panic has become so great that few
families wait to bury their dead, or even
to nurse their sick, but flee to the next
towns to escape the infection. The
fugitives from stricken towns are spread

iiJ.UUO persons have fled from Bassora
