He has been un- conscious since Monday. “Sr. Crare Sarrm, M.D.” It is not thought possible taat Booth can live longer than midnight, and it is extremely doubtful if he can survive until then.

He lies on his back most of the time, one hand and arm crooked above his’ heed and the other stretched stiff out by his 5 Ho has wasted away to a meron ing of his former self. His ‘ace is sunk and cadaverous with wide purple black rings beneath the eyes.

' It is useless to dis- cuss probabilities now. he declares, as Mr. Booth is rapidly passing away. Dr. Smith came out of the Players’ Ciab at 10a, m., aad said that Booth would not re- cover consciousness. “He is likely to die today,” Dr. Smith added, “the hot weather accelerating the dissolution which is now imminent.” = A Husband's Denial.

DISTURBANCES IN PERU. At the Legation Here They Are Not Con- sidered Serious. Inquiry at the Peruvian legation in this city respecting the cause and nature of the disturb- ances reported in Peru develop the fact that they are political. and not believed to be at all serious in extent or possi- bilities. The election for president is due to occur next spring, and there is, it is stated, considerable opposition to the government's candidate, Gen. Caceres, on the ground that ho thas already served one term. if he chosen again, tho opposition assert that he will, endeavor to perpetuate himself in power indefinitely. “But ‘this will nos be the case,” said Minister Cane- vara, “for he has promised to permanently re- tire” st the end of his second term, if elected. Gen. Caceres preceded ‘the nt president in office, and practically named him, and it is because the administration is now secking to re-elect Caceres that the opposition has been aroused.” As yet no candidate has been se- lected with which to oppose Gen. Ca- ceres. and Minister Canevara is of opinion that the opposition cannot unite upon any man. He has no idea that there will be a revelation or any serious outbreak: certainly none at present. —____--- e-______ PRO-SLAVISM PROPAGANDA. Chevalier Tavera Does Not Think There is One in This Country. Chevalier Tavera, the Austro-Hungsrian minister to the United States, has not been ad- vised of the intention or desire of his govern- ment to investigate the reported propagation of pro-slavism in this country by Russian Jews, which topic formed the basis of an interpelia- tion and discussion in the Austrian parliament last Saturday. The chevaiier is inclined to doubt that there will be any in- quiry by his government into the sub- ject. He. himself has heard nothing of any movement of the kind, and he thinks if there were one in oxisience here it would have been brought to his attention. ‘The only possi- ble batis “for the report, Chevalie> “lavera is a report ‘which he has that certain priests in the ‘ussian Greek Church residing in Pennsyl- vania have been endeavoring to form some of ® uatioual orgauization among the peopie under their charge.

The marriage was ove: ve en cere the time of their death and there was no issue. | Abby Durice Borden a. ise ume of her death was about xixty-four years cid. ‘The house in which these homicides were com- mitted bas been occupied by the family some twenty years. LIZZIe AND HER STEPMOTHER. ‘There was, or came to be, between prisoncF | and stepmother an unkindly feeling. From the nature of the case it will be impossible fcr us to get anything more than suggestive | glimpses of this feeling from outsiders. | ‘The daughters thought that something | should be done for them by way of dividing the property after they bad learned that the stepmother had been amply provided for. Then came a division and ill-feeling, and the title of “mother” was dropped. The prosecution wou!d show that a Crs: maker of the family had spoken of tbe step- mother as “mother.” when Lizzie chided her and said: “Don’t call her mother; we hate her; she's a mean, epitefal thing.” When an officer was cocking information from the prisoner right in sight of the woman who had sunken under the assassin’s blow and asked, “When did you !ast see your mother?” the reply came from Lizzie, “She is not my mother; my mother died when I was an in- fant.” They would show that there was an impas- sable barrier built up between the daughvers and the stepmother socially and by locks and rs. Upon the day preceding the homicide John V. Morse came to the Bordens to visit them. He came and slept there Wednesday night. Upoa Tuesday night an illness occurred in the household. Mr. and Mre. Borden were taken ill with retching and vomiting and the prisoner was taken tho same way. Bridget Sullivan, the servant, was not. A physician was con- sulted. Upon the day before the homicide the pris- oner went toa drug store and there asked the clerk for 10 cents’ worth of prussic acid for cleaning cape. She was refused and after some talk went away. The speaker raid there could be no doubt that the prisoner was the person who went to the store. FELT THAT SOMETHING WOULD HAPPEN, On the evening of Wednesday the prisoner made a call on Alice Rusecll, a friend of hers, and it will appear that the prisoner had been intending to spend a vacation at Marion, and the two friends talked of that trip. Sho told Miss Rus- reli that she had made up her mind to go there, but she said: “I can’t help fecling depressed; that romething is going to happen; last night we were all sick bat the girl; it may have been the baker's bread.” ” said Ass Russell, “others would have been sick if that wore 0.” “Then it might have been the mi bet time do you get your milk? “About 4 o'clock.” “Lam afraid,” Lizzie continacd. “that the ‘house will be burned down some night. Father has bad so wach trouble with his men, The other night the barn was broken into.” “But that was only bovs,”” said Miss Bussell. Lizzie continued, saying that sbe had seen a man abou canght sigh t of exch’ other, and that her father had but recently had a quarrel with a man who came to sce him, She was zenrful of trouble.” Mr. Moody then eed the plaus of the house of the Bordens, and the locality, and de- scribed them plainly to the jury. THE STORY OF TAR MORXING. Continuing, Mr. Moody said: “On the morn- ing of the tragedy Bridget Sullivan was first up: we may safely assume on the proof that the only human beings in the house that night were thcse wo bave mentioned. Bridget irs and built a fire, got the milk at locked at after she brough: screen door here and this it locked, xt . Lizzie came down, then Mrs. Borden and then Mr. Lorden. He did some chores in the barn and was seen by Bridget. She saw Morse only at breakfast with the others. “After breakfast the first one to depart was Morse. at 7:45, and Mr. Borden let bim out and locked the sereen door behind him. Soon after Morse went away the prisoner came down and ate her breakfast. While she was eating Mr. Bordon went upstaire and Bridget went out in the yard, because she was sick. When she came back “Mr. Borden had evidentiy gone down town. Mira. Borden and pridget had some talk avout washing windows and the laticr was told to do the work. “Mrs, Borden disappeared then, and it will appear that she told the prisoner she was goi upstairs to put some pillow cases on the bed the spare room.
