CONTENTS OF TURNER'S WILL Testimony of Witnesses Who Saw the Original Draft. * 5 — X \ s REMARKS OF THE DECEASED TO FRIENDS i . Bpecifie Tnstrnetions Given by the Testator . to Ome of the Froposed Executors With Reference to Carrylng Out the Will's Provisions, Lixeors, Jans 15, —[Special to Tie Bew.) «The deposition of N, 8. Scott, ono of the exccutors of tho will of Dr. Turner, the ) varions complications connected thorowith baving been set forth in the columns of T Bee, was read this morning, despite the veory vigorous objections of the contostant's counsel. The deposition was to the effoct that Dr. Turner had showed him the will in ' acrude form, and had afterwards conforred - with him as an attorney in the preparation of tho will. It alsosetup the bequests of ,/#ho alloged will exactly as claimed in the ~ petition of the proponents. William Clark, the other executor, was also examived despite objections of counsel that ho was an interested party. He said that some time in 1559 Dr. Turner had told Bim he had been named as an executor in hig will, and inquired if he would serve. He Lconsented to do so, and the doctor asked him 0 sec that the provisions of the will were | strictly carriod out, as ho had reason % believo that his sons wero mot in ympathy with his bencvolent inten- . ton lfl! had also had other conversa- tions with the deceased, the last one several months before hisdeath. The doctor gave \ specific instructions as to where he left the will, and said that the valiso inwhich 1t was contained would be given him by Mrs, Rootham, the doctor's Thousekeeper. Mr. Clark was absent from the city attho time of s death, but when he roturned Mrs. Rootham gave him the letter laft for her by the doctor, in vrhich he had given directions for her to hand the will to Mr. Clark, and informed him the will was in the possession Mr, Clark said ho had had several conver- sations with W. Turner respecting the will, and had requested him to bring it down and turn it over, so that it might be opened and tho proper proceedings taken, but it was not brought, Morris Turner being out of town on several occasions when the re- uest was made, and ot another time W. J. ner snid ho was too busy becauso of & recent fire at his store. Atter a while he % was informed of the alleged burglary ot the « residence of W. J. Turner and the disap- pearance of the valuable pavers from the valise in which they had been contained. The knowledge was imparted to him the da afterwards by W. J. Turner. They had ad- vertised for the papers, but had never re- covered them. Wi had had Captain Scott recite the provisions of the will from memory. These he had reduced to writing, and were the same as contained in the will sought to bo probated. Hussoy Murder Cuse. The jury was finally secured in the Hussey murder case this morning, and the taking of testimony begun. The coroner, Dr. Crim, and Dr. Giffen testified that the bullet which Kkilled Moore passed through his intestines and pierced the spleen, and that medical skill was unavailing to save him; that death was tho result of the bullet wound. The only eye witness of the affair who was cap- tured detailed the circumstances surround- ing the affair and the queer actions of Hussey. The attorneys for the defendant expect to prove that he has been - insane for the past eight years, and that he suffered for years from o fall 1n his youth, running away from home several years agowhen steps were being taken to incarcorate him for a vicious assault with a hatchet upon his mother. The court allowed a number of depositions setting up these facts to be in- troduced in evidence, over the vigorous ob- Jections of the state's attorney. As to the Viaduct Matter, The entento cordiale that has been doing | business between the city, the Burlington and Union Pacific railways and the viaduct contractor shows visible signs of wear and tear—all as a result of the injunction pro- ceedings brought to compel the viaduct to be halted and the streets placed in its former condition. A special meetng of the council was called last night to take some action in the matter, but a quorum w secured. Mayor Weir prepared a no serve upon the contractor today that under 1o circumstances would the city assume any liability for any part of the cost o tion or the material, but Superintendent Bignall, who has been very anxious to secure the erection of the viaduct got him to with- hold serving the notice, which would cause instant cessation of the work, and stated that in his belief he could get the railroad companies to reconsider their previous de- termination not to pay any money as they hod agreed to do. Nothing has yet been heard as to his mission. To Compromise with Delinquents. The state board, especially constituted to sottle with delinquent county treasurers, comprising the members of the State Bauk- ing Board, met this afternoon to_consider a roposition to settle the indebtedness of rl Korth, tho defaulting treasurer of Plerce county, who turned up $35,000 short some time since, Some of the misappro- ‘:mm funds belonged to the state, and his ndsmen wanted to settle, it is said, for 75 cents on the dollar without interest. ' John P, Hayes of Norfolk appeared for Korth and the bondsmen. The board concluded that as the bondsmen did not evince any disposition to put up the amount of the defalcation it could effect no settlement. Sulelde of an Aged Lincoln Cltizon. S. G. Juhan, formerly an inmate of the asylum, but who has been under restraint at his home at Thirticth and Clinton streets for several mouths, wandered away from home last ove) Late this afternoon the dead body of the old moan was found by several boys who were out hunting about a haif mile southeast of Wyuka cemetery. He had secured a piece of thick wire, tied one end to the limb of a tree and made running noose into which he inserted his head and swung off. He was lgoul. 00 years old and since his release from the asylum, some seven months ago, made his home with his son, T. B. Julian, at Thirtieth and Clinton streets. He had evidently been dead for several hours. Coroner Crim was called and the remains tairen to local undertaking rooms. It is probable no inquest will be held. Julian was at one time well to do.

Spaulding, inspector of internal revenue offices, was bending over a heap of revenue stamp stub books yesterday in the office of Collector Peters, and his pres- eace recalled the sensational times of four years ago when Mr. Spaulding was detailed from Washington to take charge of the affairs of the Omaha revenue office and trace down the embezzlements and pecula- tions of young John Calhoun. This time Mr. Spaulding happens to be simply on his regu- lar inspection tour and departed yesterday for other fields of labor. Speaking of the appointment of Mr, North, Inspector Spaulding said: I hope that Mr. Cleveland will have better luck this time than he had in the appointment of Calhoun to the position of collector of this oftice, That Calhoun scrape was a littlo the worst mix-up that I have ever been called upon to straighten out. It was months and months before we got all of John Calhoun’s crooked- ness traced down. In fact, I don't believe we ever found all of it.” Referring to the installation of Mr, North into the ofice of collector, Mr. Spaulding said: “I think that it is hardly probable that Mr. North will take the office urtil the beginning of the fiscal year,or the 1st of July. To have him come in here now would necessitate a vast amount of work that can be avoided by making the change at the be- ginning of the fiscal year., He would have to start a set of books and close them up Juiy 1 and begin anew, whereas if he comes in on July 1, he will begin his accounts with the beginning of the year, and move right along.” *When will you be read, over to your Captain Peter: “Tam neither gomng to get ready or get- ting ready. 1am ready now,” was the posi- tive response, **When the administration is ready to take the business of this office off my hands I am ready to hund it over, buy [ suppose the intention is vhat 1 shall hold the oftice until the beginning of tho next fiscal year.” to hand the office necessor!” the reporter asked B Cleaning the City Hall, A force of mon are at work cleaning the white walls in the court of the city hall, In places the walls bear a resemblance in color 1o the ace of spades, and this is thoe case more particularly near the steam radiators.

New Brororn, Mass., June 15.—The tenth day of the Borden trial opened with a big crowd. The prisoner was overwhelmed with floral offerings and appeared despite the seem- ing disheartening proceedings yester- day. The witnesses today were druggists who testified as to the use of prussic acid. The defense vigorously contests every point of the prosecution's testimony, which went to show that the acid was not used for othor than medical purposes and was un- suitable_for cleaning furs, the purpose for which Miss Borden said she wanted it. Finally the court excluded all te nony in regard to the purchaso of prussic acid. The commonwealth rested its case here, Opened for the Defense. After the rocess Mr. Jennings opened the case for the defense. He sald they would show the previous spotlessness of tho prisoner’s character and the absence of intended purpose or opportunity. The prisoner sat with her face buried in her handkerchief during the counsel's plea. After distinguishing circumstantial from direct evidence and illustrating the dan- gerous character of circumstantial evidenc he said every link in the government's chs of evidence must be proved beyond a reasor able doubt, including motive, weapon, exclu- sive opportunity and intent. The defense would show that noblood was found upon her; that the relations between father and daughter, which excluded the motive for killing him, and the motive to kill the mother alone, woald not be enough for the govern- ment to claim that the same person killed both. He claimed that the weapon had not been connected with the defendant. Ex- clusive opportunity would be negatived by showing that other people were around ut the time of the murder; that others entered the barn before the officer, who testified that its floor was covered with dust, and that the burned dress was covered with paint and was not worn on the day of the murder. During the opening Miss Borden covered her tearful eyes with her handkerchief. Martha (Chagnon, a_pleasant little Freuch gitl, was the first’ witness for the defense. On the night preceding the Borden murder she said she heard a noise about 11 o'clock at night, It sounded like pounding on the Borden fence and lasted five minutes. Marion Chagnon, mother of Martha, con- firme1 her daugnter. Saw n Mysterious Stranger. Charles M. Gifford and Uriah Kirby both swore to having seen a strange man on the house near the Borden ck the night before the der. Gifford said the man seemed asleep. ‘Witness shook the man and his hat fell off. Witness then went into the house. The man did not seem to have been drinking. He had never seen the man before or since, Mark Chase of Fall River, a former mem- ber of the police force of that city, swore that about 10:50 a. m. of the day of the mur- der he saw a buggy standing in front of the Borden house. In the carriage wasa man with a brown hat and a black coat. He hed never seen the man nor the buggy before. Dr. Benjamin H. Handy of Fall River testified thot he went by the Borden house on the morning of the murder at 9 and 10:30 o'clock. I saw a medinm-sized young man, very pale, with his eyes fixed on tho side: waik, passing slowly toward the south. He wasacting strangely. In consequence of his appearance 1 turned in my carriage to watch him as he weut by. I have a faint idea that 1 had seen him before.” Mrs. Delia S. Manley said she saw a young man attired in a suit of white stand- ing at the Borden gate. That was about 9:45. She had not noticed the young man when she first came along, George T. Borden, a relative of the de- fendaut, testified that he entered the nouse the day after the murder, finding the doors unlocked Testimony of a Reporter. Walter P. Clevens, at the time of the trag- edy, was a reporter for one of the Fall River dailies. He was called to the stand by Mr. Jennings. His tostimony was the most im- portant for the defense that had come out up to this time. He went to the Borden house on the morning of the tragedy in the regular course of his busincss. He went through the grounds and out to the barn. “While T was in there,” ho said, “I heard three persons walking about in the upper part of the barn.” Policeman Medley, it will bo remembered, had sworn that there were no traces of foot- stops 10 the dust on the floor of the barn lofu when ho went up thero to make an_investi- gation. Tho witness said that he did not seo Medley about and remained in the barn only a moment or $o. nan Robinski, an ico cream pedaler, lled, He said he went by the Borden in his wagon on the morning of the murder, ‘What did you see?” “Isaw o lady come out of the barn and go to the stairs at the north side of the house.” “How did she g “‘She was walking slowly,” answered the witness. “She went in under the stairs.” “Did you see her go into the house?" “1 don’t know about that,” Caused a Sensation. Then Robinski caused something of a sen- sation when he answered these questions: “Did you say anything to anybody about “Policeman Mullaly,” “What did you tell him?" 41 told him all about it."” “Did you tell him whav time it was when the woman? “What time was it?" It was after 11 0'clock.” “How much after?” as not sure about that,but he knew after 11 o'clock. The person he saw ou she. Robinski said he had sold things to Bridgel Sullivan aud_ know Tier ace. thon testifiod who visited the just after the murder and ound the loft. The jury retived at 4:43, while counsel ar- gued the admissibility of ovidenco of Josenh L. Muy, who found & mau covered with blood near Steep Brood August 16, who. talked about the Borden murder.
