The State Unearths Another Clue TO
the Motive-Miss Borden Alleged to
Have Consulted . Lawyer About Her
Fathers Estate.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Sept. 20.-The Globe
will state tonight that the state Ii ready to
prove that six months before the murders
Lizzie Borden went to Providence by way
of New Bedford and consulted prominent
lawyer as to the possible disposition of her
fathers property in the event of his death,
and more particularly as to its disposition
as affecting her. Two weeks before the
murder she again went TO Providence via
New Bedford and received all the inforns-
ton the lawyer could give her. Then she
went to several stores in Providence and
made purchases, directing that the goods
be shipped to her home. The police are in
possession of the shipping tags. On the
last day of the preliminary hearing the
lawyer was in the district court room face
to face with the prisoner, and the recogni-
ton was mutual These facts are con-
strued to mean that the state has another
clue as to the motive for the crime.

Hearing OF Omeers OF the Mutual

sp1racy and Perjury.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 20.-Adelbert A.
Stockwell, late counsel and assignee of the
Mutual Trust company. and J. Henry
Hayes of the defunct institution, were
given hearing to-day on charges of con-
spiracy and perjury growing out of the
failure of the bank and the Order of Iron
Hall. Stockwell furnished bail, but Hayes
was taken to prison. The evidence ss
summed up by District Attorney Graham
tended to show that the bank directors
when they found their capital impaired,
signed spaper requesting Cashier Davis of
the Iron Hall to advance the Mutual bank
5000, 600. ]. Henry Davis signed the
paper and the receipt. Stockwell prepared
that paper and was present at the meeting
which ordered ii drawn up. This Stock
well denied, but Mr.. Graham's only
reply was to read the testimony that
Stockwell had given before the court.

into court and swore that the money had

money was invested in the bonds of the
company. Mr.. Davis Gays no. tell you
that when the ruin was hanging over thsm
they tried to cover IL up. Then Stockwell's
lawyer came to him and he said I have
investigated 1t. "Thst $50, 900 was Just
purloined from the Iron Hall, then taken
from the bank, and the securities were
found, wherei Why, In Mr.. Stockvell's
Office" Other evidence that q building in
Camden had been purchased by Hayes for
So, 500, and that ii. G. Williams of the
company, the names of whose members he
did not remember. BE gave q mortgage
for SIS, 900 on this property, on which the
bank loaned SIC. 900. Stockwel prepared
the transfer papers. Counsel for Hayes
admitted that q prima facie case
had been made out, and that the
defendants must be held, but denied
most of the charges made. He said
that Hayes Was technically but not actual
" guilty. Counsel for Stockwen argued
that the only crime his client could be
charged with was with being assignee of
this concern. He defied anyone to show
that Stockweli received q penny that he
was not legally entitled to for bis services
as a lawyer, or that he received one dis
honest dollar He said it was perfectly
natural that the Iron Hall, as the principal
creditor, should come to the rescue of the
bank and make good the impairment.
