Many Persons Do Not Believe Miss Borden

FALL RIVER, Mass. Aug 13.-The reac-
tion in the Borden case has set in, and to-
day the popular feeling was nOticeab bly,
quiet. There was very little violent dis
cussion going on. and what few cases were
seen were the outgrowth of hard ex-
pressions against the imprisoned girl.
Three days ago 1t was the pop
ular cry that Miss Lizzie was q
criminal. and should be placed behind
prison bars. To-day, although the district
attorney and judges have passed their
opinions on the evidence, there are many
thoughtful and influential men who believe
trial will substantiate Miss Bordens pro-
testations of innocence. There Is now bnt
one policeman atthe Borden hoines stead, and
he is dong patrol duty on the street to pre-
vent curlous people from annoying the

There VIII BE No international Exhibitions
In Berlin-An Iron Chancellor Needed.
copyright. 1892 by the New York Associated Pressl
BERLIN, Aug. 1S-Emperor William has
squelched the proposed Berlin internation-
al exhibition. To-nights Reichsanzeiger
states that the Emperor acting on a report
from Chancellor Won Caprivi, has with
drawn all official support from the scheme.
The Chancellor's report declares. it is said,
that the reasons for not approving of the
holding of the exhibition are that only q
small portion of the German industrial So
cieties held that an exhibition was desIr-
able and that majority of the federal
government denies its necessity on eco-
nomic grounds The Prussian Ministers
were specially opposed TO the pro- ect.
while forty mem bers of the Bundesrath
voted against IL and only seven voted IN
favor of IL. The Chancellor considered
that unanimity was indispensable TO sue
cess. and. that being wanted, he recon-
mended the Emperor TO discountenance
the undertaking. In this instance the
Emperor. who personally favored the hold
ing of an exhibition. has bowed before the
Will of til majority.
An influential section of the press, chiefly
the National Liberal and FreIsinnige orr
gans. have been lndulging in outspoken
attacks upon the Ministers for submitting
10 the Will of the Emperor. regardless of
their duties TO the country. and upon the
Emperor for exercising desDotio sway over
every ministerial department. The rssig-
nation of Herr HeIrfnth, prusslan Minis ster
of Interior Is now credited. not TO differ

COLUMBIA CITY MURDER.
Henry Hicks. Who Was Supposed TO Have Re-
ceived 81. 800, Secretly Put Out of the Way.

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
COLUMBIA CRY, Ind. Aug. 13.-The mys-
terious murder of Henry Hicks. an aged
veteran. living near Churubusoo. this
county. Is being brought to light. and
Simon Thompson. the last person seen with
the murdered man, has been placed behind
the bars The history of the terrible crime
az detailed to the Journal correspondent
is as follows: Friday, Aug 5, Henry Hicks
visited the small town of Churubusco
to arrange some pension papers. When he
arrived at bis attorneys Office he was over
ioyed at finding that he had been remem-
bered by the authorities at Washington
and he at once signed his name to q pen
sion voucher for 81, 500. Being elated over
his good luck he commenced drinking, and
while In this condition spoke In manner
which led number to believe that he had
already drawn his money and that he had
it at that time on his person.
The greater part of the mig ht was spent
in celebrating the event and the
next morning he was found murdered.
The evidence presented at the cOrOrer'e
inquest strongly implicated Simon Thomp.
son, the man now under arrest. The deed
was done with q short club picked up in
the mIll-yard near by. With this weapon
the murderer disposed of his victim and
placed him beneath o pile of ties. The en-
fortunate man was seventy seven years old
and leaves q wife and family.

terious robbery which took place at the
Borden homestead, about year ago. A
ladies watch and several articles of jewelry
were taken from q dressing case in one of
the upper rooms, and TO this day the police
have been unable TO trace the thief.
The most noticeable feature In the case
today was an expression made bv Bridget
sullivan during an interview this after
noon. She remarked well. don't
wonder that they arrested Lizzie Borden"
AS Miss Sullivan is the most important
State witness, her statement has startled
the friends of the imprisoned girl. The re-
mark doubtedly represents the servants
view of the case. A. B. Jennings. counsel
for Miss Lizzie, has been able to gain no
mixing of the testimony elected at the in
quest. A great many people feel that the
prosecution should have acquainted Mr..
Jennings with Its side Of the case. The
district attorney will not talk on the case
beyond dropping an occasional hint as to
Its legal aspects. 1t is known that the
prosecution Is Indifferent as TO the opinions
of people regarding the Justice of the ar
rest of Miss Borden. 1t is reported that
the prosecution Will present but little of
Its case at the preliminary hearing, keep
ing back, if possible, the most important
evidence.
