skulls, broken arms and legs made the

ot the victims who bad. been crushed
They had been smothered and tbe dis
colorations of the faces and necks gave
visible evidence ol the cause ol death
Presiden' Cleveland was informed of
the sad event just as he reached the en
trance to the Whi'e House, by one of the
clerks, and at once interested himself in"
tbe relief me'it-ures, learning with satis
faction what had been doo-jiy Assistant
Secretary of War Grant. There have
been twenty two dead taken from the
ruins, and many more are remaining
The list ol wounded, some fatally, is
quite long.

Should the entire diplomatic corps hold
aloof from the struggle, it is more than
likely that theie will be more fighting in

the revolutionists, l d by General Joa

backed up by tbe church party, have
ooenly dec'artd themselves against all of
ex-President Sxata's assistants during

the suspension, and the bank hag the
simpathy and confidence ot tbe entire

Company, bad his right leg fractured
above the kuee and three riHs broken

city, and its branch al Y.quina City

other enterprises of a l.iko oatnre.
The Borden murder.
Fall Riyeh, Mat-s., June 11 All day
long talk i. as been plentiful on the sub
ject of tbe Borden murder, and it is 'I e
general opinion that the proi-ecntion thus
tar has presented a very weak case. The
opinion is strengthened by rumors cur
rent h-re to the effect that L zzie Bor
den's counsel wi I soon explode a bomb
snel into the camp of the authorities.
Tbe defendant's lawyers do not attempt
to disguise thejoylul feeling because of
the present status ot tbe case, and the
girl's Iriends here, are jubilant. Ihe
iiatchet incident, with accompanying
denials, is a source ot much comfort, but
white the prisoner's friends are buoyant
of spirit, the police authorities are by do
means doWDcast.

teroUr.ce. Justice Fuller said it had
been held that tbe court must grant sucb

ot the fact that a bearing on its merits
could be speedily bad.

With this exception the situation remains
unchanged. The officers lelt confident
that it is ooly a matter ot a few days un
til they resume operations on a uetter

cause her property to be divided among rel
