Tho Carnegie Company Satisfies tho Dis
sstisficd-Hugh O'DonnelPs Success.
HoMEsrEAD, Pa, Aug. 10.-The Car
negie Co. seems to have checked the re-
treat of Its non-union men which began
at such lively rate Monday morning 40
to threaten to depopulate the mill In .
week. No further desertions are report
ed today, and several OF those who left
Saturday night have returned. The
number OF applications for positions
from old men, according to an official at
the mill, continues to Increase, but he
said the men were afraid to report at this
time.
On the other hand, the leaders of the
locked out men are working the deser-
tions for all they are worth a. an Offset to
Duquesne, and to such an effect that the
people here seem to have forgotten the
upper mill altogether and are bending
new energies to instil dissatisfaction
among the non- -unionists confined in the
mill. To that end workers who leave the
mill are treated royalty and sent back in
condition to glowingly depict the hospi-
tality Of the Homesteaders and the i'm
propriety OF taking their places.
The success OF the relief committees
which have gone east has proven very
gratifying to the men here, especially the
work OF Hugh O'Donnell, who has tele-
graphed that he secured $4,000 In Boston
alone.

FELL SEVEN STORIES.
Miss Belle McKensie's Awful Death
in an Elevator Well.
SHE STEPPED OFF TOO LATE.

Minute and Then Was Picked UP
I'm the Basement, Msngisd.

BosroN, Aug. 10.-Belle Mckenzie. a
stenographer employed in the Exchange
building fell from the fifth floor down the
elevator well this morning and was in
uantly killed.
1t was at $50 o'clock when Miss Nc
yenzie stepped into the elevator which
was crowded red asked to be allowed to
to allight at the fifth floor. She walked
to the rear of the elevator to wait until
her landing was reached.
Several passengers alighted and she
stepped forward to get of. AS she did SO
the elevator man closed the door. He had
forgotten that 1t was the floor on which
she usually stopped. Just as the catch
in the door clicked she stepped onto the
projecting slab OF marble which leads to
the elevator. Up went the elevator to
the horror Of its passengers, who observed
Miss Mckenzie clinginH with her gloved
hands to the door which opens into the
elevator WELL Hardly a second later
shrek rang through the building, there
was heavy thud seven stories below in
the basement and all was over. Death in
simultaneously ensued.
The body shot down the well head fore
most and struck the concrete below man
gled in an almost unrecognizable man
ner IL was taken from the well and re-
moved TO the emergency hospital. The
young lady was % years OF age beautiful
and accomplished. She was employed in

His Request to Appear as Lizzie Bordcn's
Counsel Refused.

His Request to Appear as Lizzie Bordcn's .
Counsel Refused.
FALL RIVER, Aug. lot looked stormy
at ons time yesterday when Lawyer Jen-
nings, counsel for Lizzie Borden called at
the court room and requested the privi-
lege Of appearing in behalf Of his client.
District Attorney Knowlton declined to
admit him and several spectators thought
that Mr.. Jennings would block the
wheels of the inquiry by ordering Lizzie
TO refuse to answer any questions.
He refrained from doing so, however.
To some, however, this action seems
peculiar. They argue that, notwithstand-
ing the fact that Lizzie Borden appeared
at the inquest simply as a witness, she is,
nevertheless, on trial for her life, mas
much as anything she might utter which
could be construed against herself may be
used in direct evidence against her later
on.
For that reason many thought that she
sh Guild be allowed to have her legal rep
resentatIve, or else not be subjected to q
closs cIoss-examination.
The point created quite reaction OF
feeling in her favor among the crowd
about the court house.

that he had no doubt 81 the ultimate ar
rest of some one In the family, but which
one he would not or could not say.
After the adjournment OF the inquest,
Miss Borden was taken In a carriage to
her home on Second street, accompanied
lizard. The servant girl will not be re-
quired to sleep In the Borden house
again. Her nerves are completely shat
tered.
In an interview, she said she was ono
OF fourteen children, many OF whom are
some time to be ablo to go there. All her
expenses will b6paid during her idleness,
IL Is understood. The district attorney
has promised to SEQ that she Is we'll taken
care OF until he decides to release her
from the case.
Last night rumor gained credence at
the station that q bloody axe had been
found at South Somerset, in house oc-
cupied by some Portuguese farm, hands.
Policemen were sent to investigate the
case.
John v. Morse, an inmate of the house,
who IL still under police surveillance,
went out on Main street In the after
noon, but did not attract particular at
tention. The members of the family arc
saying some hard things concerning the
relations of the Misses Borden toward
their stepmother. One woman has found
much fault because the casket in which
Mrs. Borden's body was encased was 30
very plain; also because one OF the young
women wore flowers in her hat at the
funeral.
Hiram Harrington, Mr.. Borden's BROTH
er-in-law, whose strong statements, re-
Gently published, were about as surpris-
ing as those sent out from Hartford, has
denied to the Associated Press reporter
that he had any hard feeling against the
- x,or ha ba
befriended them and he had never In
any way quarreled with thom.
He and Mr.. Borden had frequent dif-
ferences of opinion and latterly they had
not beef on speaking terms. On the
night preceding the funeral he and Miss
Lizzie had q short conversation, which
was not friendly, on the young womsn's
mart

A QUEER-LoOKING STRANGER.

Ho Was Seen Near the Borden House
just Before the Murder.

cloud Of suspicion hanging over her, and

few minutes Of the tragedy.
Officer Hyde saw this man on the day OF
the fatal deed, and was struck by his pc
culiar appearance. He reported the cir
cumstances at the time, but the matter
dropped there
Now DIR. Handy. one of the best known
physicians in this city, makes public the
fact that he, too, saw a man whose pecu-
liar appearance attracted his attention on
Second street last Thursday morning,
somewhere between 1870 and l0:45 o'clock.
The person who attracted his attention
was a man OF about 80 years. He was
about feet inches in height, and he
might weigh in the vicinity of l25 or l3O
pounds.
He was pale, almost white. Not the
ghastly color of sick man, but rather

There Are Conflicting Stories and None Of

Cousins In warren-The Examination
still In Progress To-day.

FALL RIVER, Aug. 10.-Promptly at 10
o'clock this morning the inquest into the
murder of ME- and Mrs Borden was re-
sumed at the Second district police court
room. The proceeding was strictly pri-
vate, as heretofore.
Miss Lizzie Borden was the first wit
ness. She was led to the court room by
two police officers, and for an hour and a
half was put to the rack. What passed
no one knows, but that highly important
testimony was elected subsequent devel-
opments seem to indicate.
AT 1l:3O A. NJ. there was break in the
proceedings and Miss Borden reap
peared, leaning heavily on the arm Of
the police officers.
She seemed much exhausted by the
strain put upon her and was at once
placed in charge of the two police mat
rons, who left her lying upon a lounge.
but still under the close surveillance of
City Marshal Hilliard.
At o'clock the inquest proceeded, with
John Morse as witness, and under the
same rigid rule Of secresy which had be-
fore prevailed.
Mrs. George Brigham, friend of the
family, came to the station house this
afternoon, and tried to cheer aud interest
the unfortunate Miss Borden.
In the meantime-while Mr.. Morse was
undergoing his inquisition and Miss Bor-
den was conversinR with her friend "A sig
nificant scene was being enacted at the
Borden house.
Chief Bingham and Officer Harrington,
with a carpenter from the shop of Gala
han & Bailey, visited the house on Second
street which has been the centre of SO
much curiosity.
They entered by the front door. The
carpenter had his tools with him.
The house had been thor roughly searched
three times and there was little expecta-
tion in the waiting crowd without that
any discovery would oe made.
In about half an hour, however, the
three reappeared, carrying three large
and apparently heavy bundles wrapped
up In old newspapers Officer Harring
ton also carried piece OF zinc or sheet
lead taken from under a stove.
What thess bundles may be Is q mys-
terr 1t is surmised that this most recent
search was undertaken In consequences of
some hint let fall by Lizzie Borden on the
witness stand.

questioned solely in regard to her story
as she had repeated It to Mr.. Hanscom.
and as he had probably repeated 1t back
to her. But when the evidence accumu-
lating SO rapidly was presented to her,
and she was asked to explain 1t. she
broke down and could go no further. The
District Attorney waited In vain for her
to regain her composure. She continued
TO weep. She was placed In the care OF
Matron Russell and at 12 o'clock the in
quiry was adjourned.
On Friday there was found In the cell
lar of the Borden house bundle OF rags.
These rags were concealed under bucket
turned up side down They were smeared
with blood, as though the blade OF an axe
had been wiped on them. DR.. Dolan took
these rags and sent them to Prof. Wood
of Boston. He also sent q strip Of carpet,
dyed with the blood Of Mrs. Borden.
Prof. Wood to-day said that the blood
on the rags, as we'll as that on the carpet,
was human blood. Near the spot where
the rags were found the police found the
axe with the stains resembling blood
stains on 1t. These stains it Is said are
human blood stains.

STEVENSON AND THE MINERS.
A Serious Charge Preferred In His Homo
Newspaper.

STREAToR, H., Aug. 0-In a letter to
local paper, Patrick NJ. Mccall. a we'll
known Irishman, says: II worked for
Adlai E. Stevenson's company from the
time the bottom vein was reached in 1870
until Mr.. Stevenson pulled the Union out
root and branch in 1873.
II can truly say never met a greater
tyrant, nor a man with less humanity
during all my life as coal miner. In
1873 contract was agreed to between
Adlai and the miners. He prepared ii,
and one clause provided that IL should re-
main In force one year and no one should
be discharged without good cause.
mot many weeks after one of the
ropes broke in the shaft, leaving but one
to hoist and lower the men and raise the
coal AT that time the shaft was also I'm
very dangerous condition. The tim
bers were bulging and breaking and the
free passage of the cage was frequently
obstructed.
"One afternoon the remaining cage.
loaded with men, stuck in the shaft.
From 4 o'clock until 10 at night it was
suspended in the most perilous position
between top and bottom.
"There was no escapement shaft, and
coming from the bowels Of earth, $50 feet
below, could be heard the execrations Of
the men and pleadings for prompt relief
At any moment the unusual strain upon
the rope might have precipitated the cage
OF human beings to the bottom OF the
shaft, several hundred feet below.
"Women and children gathered around
Che top screaming and praying for the
uOfety of their husbands and fathers.
Next morning, yielding to the prayers of
Weir families. the men refused to work
Until the shaft was put in safe condi-
Jion. Adlai gave orders to discharge
every man who did not report for duty.
Realizing their extreme danger not a
man reported, and all were discharged in
face of a contract drawn up for one year.
In a short time the company's agent
brought In ninety scabs, only one OF
whom could speak word OF English.
"Union miners were defeated IN that
inhuman lockout in 1878 for simply de-
mandiug that their lives be not un-
necessarily jeopardized. Such is the
character Of Adlai Stevenson, the scab
employer aud boss political headsman.
Mr.. Mccall Is vouched for by many
prominent citizens. He Is leading rep
