POSSIBLY A CLUE.
The Strange Man Said to Have Been
Seen by Mrs. Marshal.
IsPEcrAL TO THE NEWS,

PAwTUCKET, Sept. 3.-The story that
gained circulation here yesterday, that
Mrs. Jonn Marshal of this city, had seen
a man coming from the Borden home
stead in Fall River on the day of the MUIR
der, may prove to be an important matter
for Miss Lizzie Borden. The accuracy of
the story cannot lie astertained, as Mrs.
M rshal and her son both persistently re-
fuse to say anything about It,
The story as related Is. however, that
Mrs. Marshall, who formerly resided / 4
Fall River aud was we'll acquainted there,
was riding by the Borden residence at
about the hour the crime was suppose to
have been done, when a man came from tn
premises OF such an unprepossessing ap-
pearance as to cause Mrs. Marshall to re-
mark upon that point.
She had kept quiet about the matter
because OF her repugnance to appearing
in court, but considering the turn the
matter has taken, it Is understood that
her son has communicated with Mr.. Jen-
nings and will place the facts at his dis
posal.
Two or three detectives from Fall River
have been in the city yesterday and to-
day, but it is believed they Will get hut
little satisfaction out OF Mrs. Marshall or
her son.
An ex-assistant attorney general of the
State said this forenoon that il the fact Of
the matter credited to Mrs. Marshall
could be established 1t would be sufficient
to free Lizzie Borden.

name Of Thomas c. Peckham Of Covent ry
Centre to note for s9.252, and bound
over in the sum of 81 900, comes before the

throughout the various villages Of the
Iawttxet Valley that another note had
been found and was for 81 500, being sup
posed TO have been drawn up by Tripp.
The News reporter was informed by
the bookkeeper, Charles Congdon, that
Mr.. Peckham was away; he said he had
heard Of another note but had not seen IL
aud the amount was $1,000. At o'clock
Mr.. Peckham was interviewed at the
American National Bank, PROVIDENCE,
and said that he had no doubt but what
another note would be found, and the
amount would be about what was ru-
mored. The note had as yet not been pre-
sented to the bank, but II 1t was someone

ENGLISH METHODS SLOW.

Britain Sees and Admires Our Quarantine
Scheme.
tCopyrisht, 1897, New York Associated Prsss)
LONDON, Sept. 3.-President Harrison's
circular relative to the quarantining Of
vessels carrying immigrants finds general
approval and even admiration here.
There Is some feeling of envy, also, that
the American law enables tho govern
ment to take such prompt and thorough
steps to stop importation OF cholera.
The halting and imperfect measures Of
the British local government board, di-
recting that no "hlthy, unwholesome
persons coming from foreign ports,"
shall pass unchalienged, are questioned
by high legal authorities as exceeding
the powers OF the board.
The only act giving the board the
shadow OF right to prevent landing OF
aliens 10 the act Of 1888 for the registra-
tion of aliens. After such registration
the power of the board to interfe with
aliens vanishes.
The government, In cooping up immi-
grants at G-avesend and elsewhere, are
acting illegally, and they will be obliged
to ask Parliament 10 pass a retrospective
act legaliz ng what they have done.
1t is feared that one result OF President
Harrison's measure will be to stop the
stream OF alien emigration to America
and make England the permanent loca-
tion OF many families who had intended
to seek new homes across the water. The
prolonged quarantine declared by the
United States Is not regarded as hostile
to England, but with view to counter
act its tendency to throw crowd of In
fected immigrants into Great Britain,
the officials of both the local board and
the board OF trade urge that the govern
ment make immediate assent to pro-
bibition to the landing OF immigrants
from infected ports and to q long quar-
antine on vesssls from such ports. In
the absence OF an act empowering such
measures, 1t is held that the privy coun.
Gil could issue an edict.
Mr.. Gladstone and Mr.. Fowler, secre-
tary of state for war, have been commu-
nicating with Dir Charles Russell, the
attorney general, and Mr.. Rigby, the So
licitor- general, to obtain their advice
with regard to means to meet the legal
difficulties.
The agents of leading steamship COM
panies regard the Presidents circular az
needlessly severe. Despite the circular,
some vessels are certain to take their full
complement OF emigrants. Several
steamship companies now refuse to book
even first and second class passengers
hailing from Germany and other conti-
mental ports, but the same companies,
having thousands of steerage passengers
already booked. are in a quandary how
instanter to discontinue this service,
having contracted to provide for the
booked emigrants until they are landed
at their port Of destination.
In the meantime the cholera In Great
Britain seems to have been fairly mas
tered.
The physicians OF this city will discuss
the proposal OF the establishment OF an
international cholera commission ITO re-
port on the origin of the plague, its line
OF march through different countries and
methods OF treatment Of persons stricken
with the plague.

ANOTHER THEORY.
Or. Abbott Thinks Mr.. Borden Was Killed
Before Mrs. borden.

DIR. Abbott Thinks MIR. Borden Was Killed
Before Mrs. Borden.
TAUNTON, Mass, Sept. 3.-Miss Emma
L. Borden arrived here on the s:45 train
this morning to pay her sister visit. An
important fact in connection with the
mystery has just come out. and II the
theory advanced is correct it will have a
great bearing upon the matter later on.
DR.. John II. Abbott Of Fall River knew
something about the condition OF the
bodies OF Mr.. and Mrs. Borden before he
went West, but rs he went away before
any suspicion was directed toward Lizzie
he had expressed no opinion. Now he
says that he saw the bodies short time
after they were discovered by the daugh-
ter and viewed by the police, aud both
were warm.
There was not the slightest indication
that one had been dead over an hour be-
fore the other In fact, it is his opinion
that Mr. Borden was killed first, and that
Mrs. Borden was followed up stairs by the
murderer and stricken down rs she was
running to the window to call for assist
ancs. 1t was the blow in the back.
affecting the spine, that caused death he
thinks, md the head blows were given
afterward to make sure of death.

THINKS 1T ABSURD.

The London Daily News on the Twento
Day Quarantine Rule.
LONDON, Sept. 8.--Rsferring to Presi-
dent Harrisons circular. the Daily News
says; This proclamation is producing
the utmost CONSERVATION. The spirit Of
panic which instigated It is forcibly
pointed out BY the alleged order to the
polics to shoot persons detected in trying
TO evade quarantine restrictions.
IL may be that the proclamation errs
on the right side. Some medical author.
tiles regard our system as too lax, but IL
has defended US before and will again.
Even taking the extreme view that in
lection may be twenty days developing,
three weeks detention, after a ten days
passage is absurdly long, and IL is unlike
ly on mature consideration that this
needless restriction will ba retained.
