THE STATES EVIDENCE.
A Detective's Idea Of the Borden Case
Judge Blaisdelrs Prejudices.


A Detective's Idea Of the Borden Case
Judge Biaisdelrs Pr~judices.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug. 1s.-A police
man who 10 we'll versed in the secret SER
vice work on the Borden murder case,
gives as his opinion that the state would
try to prove that Andrew J. Borden was
contemplating making his will shortly
before he was KILLED. 1t Is said that this
will was to be favorable to his second
wife, who was killed with him, and that
his daughter did not approve II.
The police have about given up hopes
OF ever finding the wild eyed man said to
have been seen by DIR. Handy.
In an interview with high police au-
thority IL was said that Judge Blaisdell
did not issue the warrant for the arrest
OF Miss Lizzie Borden and was not aware
that such warrant would be issued until
District Attorney Knowlton had made up
his mind concerning the evidence that
the police presented TO him.
Today, even after the inquest, Judge
Blsisdell is preiudiced in Liz.es favor,
more because Of his respect for her de-
ceased parents, however, than from the
merits OF the case. According to Mr..
Jennings reasoning, said the official,
Judge Blaisdell or any other man must
be ignorant OF all that has been published
in order to be competent 10 sit on the 1u-
dicial bench. Such a man cannot te
found In New England. IL Mr.. Jen-
ming arguments hold good, the govern
ment has the greatest reason to complain
against the presiding justice, for his con-
nections would naturally lead him to
take sides with the imprisoned girl.

FIGHT AT EVERY STAGE.

Attorney Jennings Makes Move for Miss
Borden's Liberty.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug. 1s.-Marsha
Hilliard, Medical Examiner Dolan, and
other officials connected with the murder
case, have been formally summoned to
appear In the District Court on Monday
and bring with them every article taken
by them from the Borden household at
ter the murders were discovered. These
summonses mean that Lawyer Jennings
means to fight for Miss Borden's liberty
at every stage of the legal proceedings.
District Attorney Knowlton and Mar
shal Hilliard remained In conference in
Boston for three hours, on business re-
lating to the presentation OF evidence In
the case. Later they spent four hours in
Providence. Last night Marshal Hilliard
was more confident than ever that the
prisoner win be bound over to the Grand
Jury, although IL is conceded that the
trial will be ono OF the hardest ever
fought in New England.
Officers were at work yesterday chasing
down q colored man who has been seen
skulking in the neig hborhood OF the New
Boston woods. Mrs. Brightman, who re.
ported the case, says the man was blacked
up, but the officers have bsen unable to
locate him up to the present time.
Marshal Hiiliard says that when the
preliminary evidence is introduced many
people who are now condemning the po-
lice will change their minds regarding
the merits Of the case, and will regret
that they spoke In print before knowing
the details OF the affair. The marshal
says the government has heard some talk
about Mr.. Borden having inventoried his
property, but no positive evidence has
been secured. Neither has the state
taken any steps towards holding Miss
Emma Borden or John V. Morse for the
sole purpose OF providing that he intend
ed making will largely in favor OF his
wife.

Detective McHenry, it Is understood Is
