The appointment of a military Off
Ger as inspector of the entire system
of Russian railways is said to have
created sensation in Europe. When
it is rendered, however, that in the
building Of railways in Russia their
value for military purposes receives
the first consideration, there is nothing
about this appointment that should
excite alarm.

FALL RIVER, Mass, Dec. 1.-The fol-
lowing is the result of the work of the
grand jury, as reported in the famous
Borden case:
The Indictment for Murder
against Lizzie A. Borden was on two
counts, the first of which was as follows:
Commonwealth of Massachusetts,, Bristol
8. S. At the superior court begun and holden
at Taunton, within and for the said county of
Bristol, on the rstiMonday of November, in
the year of our Lord one thousand eight hun
bred and ninety-two, the jurors of the said
commonwealth on their oath, present that
Lizzie Andrew Borden of Fall River, in the
county of Bristol, at Fall River, in the county
of Bristol, on the fourth day of August, in the
year 1892, in and upon the body of Abby Dur
fee Borden, feloniously, wilfully, and of her
malice aforethought, an assault did make,
and with certain weapon TO Wit;
sharp cutting instrument, the name
and more particular description OF
which is to the jurors unknown, her,
the said Abby Durfee Borden, feloniously,
wilfully and of her malice aforethought, did
strike, cut and bruise in and upon the head of
her. the said Abby Durfee Borden, giving TO
her, the SAID Abby Durfee Borden by the said
striking, cutting, beating and bruising in and
upon the head of her, the said Abby Durfee
Borden, divers to witt Twenty mortal wounds,
of which said mortal wounds the said ABBY
Durfee Borden then and there instantly died.
And so the jurors aforesaid, upon their oath
aforesaid, do say that the said Lizzie Borden
the said Abby Borden, in manner and form
aforesaid then and there feloniously, wilfully,
and of hefinalice aforethought, did kill and
murder, against the peace of said common
wealth, and contrary to the form of the statute,
in such case made and provided.
The next count is the same as the first,
merely substituting the name of Andrew
jackson Borden for Abby Durfee Borden,
and ten mortal wounds instead of twenty.
Miss Borden has been notified by friends
of the return of the Indictment, and is
said to have preserved the same stoical de-
meanor that has marked her course
during the preliminary hearing.

In BOSTON MARKETS.
Thanksgiving Followed by a
Period of Inactivity.

New England Butter Makers Meeting
Other Products of the Farmand Garden.
BOSTON, Dec TN many lines of mar
ket produce thera is a somewhat quiet
feeling since Thanksgiving But as the
Christmas holidays approach it is thought
that the activity of two weeks ago will be
revived. South Market street, which is
the Mecca Of farm products, is quiet now
as the calm bore the storm for within
few days IT, on It will put on new life in
the sale of C-...otmas greens.
Apples.
The market in apples is not in very
bouyant condition. Producers who in the
early part of the season could have found
a remunerative market in the west are
now shipping to Boston. Many in the
trade are not disposed to increase their
holdings beyond what they have now in
the store houses. Had it not been for the
long prices paid for this stock on which
dealers yet hope to realize a profit there
would now be an attempt to bear the
market. AS it is they talk prices SOME
what higher than could be expected to be
realized in large quantities shipped to
this market. Hope is at present that the
Liverpool market will turn for the better
and afford an outlet for their high priced
purchases. In Il jobbing way the market
remains about the same as last week.
Butter.
The butter market has been totally TO-
nored the past week by western shippers
from the fact of the full supply coming
from western points. Every year, owing
to the guidance of the state dairy school
throughout New England, butter makers
are improving and Increasing their prod
uct This fact. coupled with the improve
ment of storing of June made butter,
makes Boston more and more an eXclu-
sive shipping point.
Fruit.
Native stock is cutting smaller figure
in native supply, although there are a
few small lots of home grown pears
offered. Dealers now naturally look to
California and Florida for their pur-
chases. There is supply of native grapes
in the market, but owing to the extremely
poor quality they are neglected 1t is
hard to get nice thing in Concords, but
when obtained cents a pound is easily
obtained.
Cranberries take wide range. A good
hard berry is easily worth IS barrel.
Much of the Offering are soft quality sell
ing as low as 80 a barrel with few
takers
Florida oranges are increasing in supply
and easy in prices correspondingly. Three
dollars box would be considered a fair
quotation. Lemons are not plenty, taking
