About 5,000 colored persons—men, women and children—packed their dinner baskets this morning and went to the steamboat wharf, an- ticipating a pleasant day at St. Thomas’, near Chapel Point. ‘The excursion was given under the auspices of St. Ambroee’e Society of St. Dominic's Church. Tickets were sold by members of the commit- tee largely in excess of the capacity of the steam- boats chartered, the Coit and Pilot Boy. Two hours before the time set for the boats to start, the people, all dressed in their good clothes, with lunch baskets, fishing tackle and all sorts of games, began to assemble about the wharf. It took only a few mizutes go load the bouts | and leave many hundreds of disappointed peo- | pie on the wharf. ‘Tho disappointed persons uttered such violent expressions of denuncia- tion and threate that the police were called out, It was feared that a riot would be the result of the disappointment, and the reserves from the first and fourth precincts were sent to the scene, and it was only by bard work on part of the officers tha: violence was prevented. A member of the committee who had sold tickets was appealed to for the yeturn of the money. bu: he was powerless to act in the mat- \d a hasty retreat was the only thing that him from the hands of the infuriated pleasure seekers, Then another man who seemed to be actively engaged in the manage- ment of the affair stood on an elevation and started to tell the crowd when and where they could procure the return of their money, but hhke the committeeman, he was forced to re- treat, and the police put him in a room to keep him ont of reach of the angry ones, It was almost impossible for the police to disperse the crowd, for some were trying to make arrangements to secure another boat, but in this they failed. Some of the disappointed ones went down on the Alexandria ferry boats, while others repaired to shady places along the riverand spread their luncbes. While many of the crowd were atill waiting the steamer Pilét Boy, which had on a large nugber of passengers, came back up the stream and it was Jonrod that’ there wae trouble, but when the wharf was reached it was learned that the return wae made becanre of the absence of several members of the band.

Last night on the steamer George Leary there was u great demand for life preservers, as passengers were badly frightened and several hundred persons were certain that they would either have to jump overboard or godown with the steamer. There wae a large crowd on the steamer and the exciting in- cident happened some time after the boat left Colonial Beach, where a large majority of the passengers got on, ‘The rolling of the boat was the first thing no- ticed and then the machinery appeared to stop. For a time it seemed us though the boat would topple over and as the roaring sound of ‘the wheel in the water was followed by a noiseless motion the passengers became ‘alarmed and | there was a rush for life preservers. Meu women and children alike stood on the benches and.chairs and pulled the preservers from the racks and put them on, ready to meet any emergency that might arise.

STAR: WASHINGTON. ‘THE INTERNATIONAL CONVERENCE. A Belief That the Congressional Delegates Can Serve, ‘The question has been raised whether Senators Allison and Jones and Representative ‘MeCreary can served an delegates to the inter- the Constitution. ‘The point is ‘made upon the provisions. of article 11, section 6, of the Constitution, which provides that “No Senator or Representative shall, durirg the time for which he was elected, be ted to any civil office under authority of the United Staies which shall have been crested. or the emoluments whereof sali have been increased during such time, and no person bolding any office under tlie United States shall be a mem- ber of either house during hie continuance i biadl ‘The question bas not been officially discursed yet, vat ‘e high official of the government in conversation witha Stam reporter today ad- vanced the opinion that this case does not come under the operation of the seotion of the Con- stitution quoted. This official, whose opinion | fa entitled to great weight in auch iattere, thinks the prohibidion refers entirely to a civil office, and although the conference was pro- vided for by act of SS is not construed as the creation of a civil office. Sedat Geared authorized by the. su: ce bill as follows: The President of States is hereby authorized to appoint five com- held at a place to be hereafter designated, with a viow to secure, internationally: «fixity of relative value between gold ai ver, ae money, by means of 8 common ratio between those metals, with free mintage at such ratio, and for compensation of said commisoners, and for all reasonable expenses connected there- with, to be approved by the Secretary of State, including the proportion to be psid by the United States of the joint expenses of such con- ferenee, $80,000 or 80 much thereof as may be necesnary. It is claimed that the term “international conference” completely separates it from any civil significance. No tied compensation is stipulated. for the | members, as would be tho case if a civil office were organized. oe REPRESENTATIVE WARWICK DEAD Buri: rief Sketch of His Carcer. | Representative John G.Warwick of Ohio, who defeated Maj.

The first theory of the police was that a mur- derer familiar with the place had concealed himself iti the house and had taken desperate | chances for the lunder that might be at hand. This view was relinquished when it was found | that nothing had been taken. The police next } j j | murders were » famjly matter and had grown ‘out of the effort of one of the girls to secure a balf interest in the estate, valued at $500,000. At the outset there were several falve clues on which the police worked, soveral parties being | arrested on suspicion, but each o%e established | an alibi. ; A careful examinatiomof the bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Borden the day after the killing served to convince the physicians that Mrs. Borden had been dispatched some time ably.sn Kiour and a halt—before her hud Teas after this discovers, if ne ! ; ii & € f pike l} I i ee at f itt a the nature of things murder | ** fell taught a Sunday | bat’ sedate.

Hiram Harrington, © brother-in-law of Bor- den, bad an interview with Mise Borden the wening of the day of the murders. She told hhim that ehe was in the kitchen when the father came home at 10:30 o'clock. Mr. Borden nat down on the lounge in the next room, and #he went in there and helped him to remove coat, inquired rolicitonsly as to his condition, put on bis dressing gown, assinied him toa re- clining position. and withdrew on finding bim comfortable. She left the house and went to the barn about 10-45 o'clock, aud staid there twenty to thirty minutes. On returning she found Mr. Borden's body. Mise Borden told Harrington that she thought the murders bed been committed by strangers. ‘The stomachs of Mr. and Mra. Borden have been sent to Boston for chemical analysis, | which will how not only whether poison was administered, but also is relied on to setile the westion as to which of the couple died first. | this depends the disposition of a large part of the estate. If Mrs. Borden died first her relatives would not inherit her dower rights. One of the most singular things in connection with the tragedy is that the weapon with which the murders were committed has not yet been found, beyond peradventure, althongh the honse and its chimneys, the yard, cellar, barn and every part of the premises were searched and dug over industriously. Several axes and | batcbets were found, but none of them bore dona fide blood stains. A hatchet was found in the Borden cellar with what looked like blood stains on it; but they were very old stains, ap- parently, atid Mins Borden said that the hatchet \d been used several weeks previous in killing pigeons. BRIDGFT SULLIVAN'S TESTIMONY. On her second examination by the police Bridget Sullivan changed her former story in some detaila. She said that ebe began to wash the windows st 9:30 o'clock and did not get through until 10:30. Daring this hour she com- inanded a full view of all the entrances to the Louse, and was positive no one entered or de- parted. Just asx she finished she saw Mr. Bor- den approaching and let-bim in. Then she at- tended to some matters in the kitchen and went upstaire to liedown because of « pain in her beck. On her way upstairs she passed thro the room where Mr. Borden was lying on lounge and found him sleeping. She left Lizzie | Borden ironing ia the kitchen, and knew noth- ing of the murders until called ‘down by Lizzie. Tne police are clear on the quetion of motive. They allege that it was the purpose of Lizzie Borden, by killing Borden and_his wife, to in hetit one-half of his estate. Bearing on this point information was tarnished the only two days ago to the effect that Mr. was about to makea will. The police consider the information reliable. No will bas been found ‘since his death, and be is believed to buve died iniestate. Itis said that Lizzie Borden knew he was about to make a will. Before the tragedy Lizrie Borden lived the humdrum life of a small place. She once school clase and was bright made an extended tour of Enrope a year or two ago, since which she has devoted herself largely to novels and has re- sumed her Sunday school teaching. Through- out ber surveillance and arrest she has borne herself with wonderful calmness, RESULT OF THE CHEMISTS’ ANALYSIS. A Fall River dispatch says that Prof. Wood of | the Harvard Medical School has advanced far | thoroughly demoralized on enongh in his analysis to determine several im- portant points. It is expected by the govern- ment that he will testify at the preliminary ex- igh {hat the blood spots on the amail ax, carpets End sofa coverings, sent him for exam- ination, are almost identical in formation, and a ys to be human blood. It i+ also intimated + Dr. Wood has found no evi- dence of poison in the viscera pent him for analysis, “Such evidence will do much to strengthen the government care in one way, but | in another it will weaken it. The finding will disprove the theory that the old people's sick- noss on Tuesday fight prior to the murder was | caused'by poironing, and thus the attempted purchase of prusic acid by Miss Borden on Yednesday will, even if tra inal deliberation and planning on her part.
