Dispatch to The Evening Star, New Beprorp, Mass., June 9.—It has been decided to put Lizzie Borden on {he stand in a few days and give her a chance to tell her story in her own way. This will be done unless the aspect of the case changes very much. Ex-Gov. Robinson improved the few minutes before the opening of the court this morning to have a confidential chat with his client, Lizzie talked freely and the ex-governor looked quite happy and contented when the interview closed and the business of the day began. ‘The closing hours of yesterday were marked by two bits of testimony which may prove of grave importance. Police Officer Allen testified that in his search of the Borden house he found € | lying at the feet of Mrs. Borden's body in the front chamber a colored handkerebief with squares of black lines in it, which was badly torn. The handkerchief, stained and rent, was held up and identified by the witness, Of wearied disgust passed over th | prisoner. The witness also said that he found the cellar door bolted on the insi ‘The government hi all the doors except the screen door. which Lizzie says she used. The second interesting bit of evidence from Assistant Marshall Fleet, who also testified this morning He said that on the day or the murder he found small box in the middle cellar the head of a hatchet.

Statement by the Min! Position on the Geary Act. Loursviixe, Kr., June 9.—In view of the re- cent statement that the Chinese ambassador at Washington had assured Secretary of State Gres- ham that the government of the former would enter no protest against the carrying out by the latter of the provisions of the Geary-Chinese exclusion act, the following letter from Tui Kno Yien to Col. Blanten Duncan of this city, written Iast Monday and received yesterday morning, is of national, if not to say interna- tional, interest. Curxesz Lroatiox, Wasurxoron, June 5, 1893. Mr. Blanton Duncan: Dear Sir: I have much pleasure in acknowl edging the receipt of your kind letter of the 24 instant inclosing a copy of your letter to the Secretary of State, Hon. W. Q. Gresham, in reference to the Geary act, which you con- demn as unjust and inequitable. I appreciate your kindness very much, more especially the justice and friendship which yon and the majority of your people desire to show to the Chinese. By the cable- m lately received from my government | the grave of dust to the heavenly bodies. ‘The am instructed to protest strongly against the enforcement of the act and adopt a firm atti-| tude in the adjustment and settlement of the pending difficulties. However, I am| glad “to be able to say ' that the| present administration is not pushin, e matters to extremes, but still has regard for the aintenance of mutual friendship and is en- jeavoring to observe the treaty stipulations of the two nations, There 1s now no alternative left to me but to wait for the final development of the pending question.

Linda Hutchinson Ball, the daughter of the late Hayward M. Hutchinson, and who a tew weeks ago suc- ceeded in breaking the will of her sister, Mre. John F. Olmstead, has sued for | divorce from her husband, Charles A. Ball. ‘The equity docket of the District Supreme | Court shows the eutry of a suit? in equity of Mrs, Ball against | Mer husband on the 27th of last month, but also the docket does not state the nature of the suit. One of the clerks of the court stated that it was for dissolution of the matrimonial bonds, and that the papers were immediately withdrawn after being filed, thereby preventing the dirciosure of the grounds of the divorce. Mra, Ball's at- torneys are Wm. B. Webb and Enoch Totten ir. Batl’s W. J. Miller. t is understood that Mr. Ball will contest the suit. The couple have one child, a daughter of ten or twelve years of age. Should Mrs. Ball succeed to the estate of her sister, the late Mrs. Olmstead, it is said she would then be a millionaire heirese. © Regarding Her | P! nitaries of the church were robed in their richest vestments and made an imposing ap- pearance, REV. FATHER STAFFORD'S SERMO! Rev. Father Stafford of St. Peter's urch, Baltimore, and professor of oratory at the Catholic University, delivered the sermon. He reached on “The Relation of God to the Intellect and to the Will” He first addressed the cardi- nal as foliows: “Your: eminence, you placed the corner stone of this beautifui edifice in position last year, and did it in a manner wor- thy of the gift and givers. Nothing remains | for me to say on this happy occasion, when the | structure is finally consecrated ‘to Divine | than to again thank the generous bene: in the name of the president and fac- of Georgetown University, and in ulty the name of the Catholics of America, for their gift.” He commenced his sermon by saying that “The age in which we live is one of great metual activity. In many respects it has no parallel in history, and whatever we may think of the methods that are peculiar to it we cannot deny that in many depart- ments of thought it has made much progress. We are assured by the prophets of the day that the advances thus far made are as nothing to the stupendous revelations that greet us in the future. ‘These mental revelations are to be the jogical and necessary results of the future. We have delved into the earth to find their | prophet of old, overcome by the word of God, left all for bis god, and, like the blind man, returned to Jerusalem, wit! | That is to say, Heis intinitely good, intinitely | holy and infinitely lovabie, records of deeds which occurred long ago and have been forgotten. We have studied all from God manufactured himself to the human race, not as man,not as aparticular thing, butas God. He referred to the developments of science and claimed that the discoveries made contirmed the behef in God and did not tend to a materialistic belief. He spoke of the scientists who had been brought by their investigations to recognize the majesty, beneficence snd love of _ the one God. The greater the _ intellect, he thought, the stronger the belief in the Almighty. Dr. Stafford was earnest, logical and eloquent in his diction, and in the delivery of his discourse he fully maintained the high reputation he enjoys as an orator. > MRE. HENRIQU v ¥ WEAK. Ellison Has Made No Advances and They Would Not Be Listened To. New York, June 9.—Broker William H. Hen- Tiques passed a very bad night. One fainting speil succeeded another and left him in » very weak condition, Dr. H. Wynkoop made early call on his patient this morning and said that while there was no immediate danger of death his condition wax extremely critical. A member of the family denied this morning that Ellison, who assaulted Mr. Henriques, had made any advances on his behalf. ‘They would be regarded with scorn, as the matter is now in the district attorney's hands. a he Iinois Delayed Only Purtapexrata, June 9,—Thesteamer Illinois, which eailed for Antwerp on Wednesday and collided with and sunk the schooner Mabel Jordan in the Delaware river was at the Dela- ware breakwater this morning. She will have some repairs made to her machinery, which will delay her departure a day or two. in the center there is an excavation fif- teen or twenty fect across and about eight feet deep below the level of the sidewalk. As this is in the center toward which the fall went it is more than likely that there ‘re still more there who were carried down and who lie still covered up beneath this mass, It was necessary to clear off the main floor before this could be touched, but at the rate they were going this afternoon it was evident the bottom of it would be reached before night and everything in it removed. What it will bring forth no mau can say. It would be cruel to say that the work of rescue was slow, or that in the| Presence of that awfal calamity the | Police “and the firemen stood dum- founded. The first members of the police force who entered the building thie morning began lifting dirt and mortar with their bare those out of sight could be heard calling for help and groaning. ‘There were cries of dis- tress ali about me. A man fagt near me asked ‘Then I found that my right I turned around, however, my left band and drew him out. His name was Smith, but I do not know his initials Near him wasaman buried up to his belt, but I could not belp him. It was dreadful to hear the groamsand fecl the movements of men straggling about me to getout.

Keep your courage; take it easy; and they were ¥. & emrrn. hands, and continued to work manfuily m that way until shovels and other tools could be se- cured, , NOT PAPERS. This afternoon the firemen turned a stream of water into the building. This was done to lay the dust ao that the work of clearing away th | could be better accomplished. A dyed- in-the-wool government clerk objected | to this procedure, because, he said, the place was stored with important govern- ment pspers which would be ruined by water. | A man who standing beside him shouted back | excitedly, don't care a d—n for the papers of a government that lets ite clerks work in such «trap. It's men we are trying to save; not papers.” The general opinion is that the accident wns caused directly by the weakening of the structure by reason of excavations made beneath it for an electric lighting sys- tem. It was stated this afternoon that several days ago the clerks in the building circulated a potition protesting against this work being continued, as they considered that it imperiled the lives of every man who was working in the building. TWENTY DEAD BopiEs. At 2:30 o'clock this afternoon twenty dead bodies had been accounted for, of which sixteen were at the morgue. ‘One man was found sticking head first into the debris, His feet were seen first, Soon they had uncovered his legs, which waved feebly in the air, showing that he was still alive, As fast as human hands could work those rescuers did, and soon they had the unfortunate man out. He was alive when be was brought into the air, but be died F. B. Smith was on the second floor and fell, receiving severe scalp injuries, He said that he landed about two feet from a window and crawled out by himself. He could bear the cries about him and feel people scrambling and struggling to get out. ‘TRE EASTERLING BROTHERS. C. 8 Easterling and H. V. Easterling, two brothers, were in the building. The first was on the third floor and was not burt, happening to be in that part that did not fall. His brother, who was on the second floor, was one of those very seriously injured. Shadbolt, « man, was badly athed about the’ face. but’ was not seriously burt. EX. MEEKING. E. N. Meekins was on the se@énd floor.
