A POINTED GARD FROM @. F.
MOORE, ESQ.

Mr.. d. s. Eichelberger, Manager paltey
Viyginaaap, GLUTEN Forge, Va.
SIR SO much has been conjectured
and said in regard TO my relations to the
.VIRGINIAN." that feel called upon to
consume enough of your space TO make
a personal explanation.
A bone fde written contract was EN-
tered into between the Clifton Forge
Publishing Co. and Maj. j. Ogden MUIR
ray, by which the latter was TO assume
control of the VIRGINIAN office on or
about the 10Th of October, 1892, and con-
tinue in charge for one year.
At the time that contract was made
nothing whatever was said about the
attitude should assume for the future !;
in fact was not present. About Il week
or ten days later the Board of Directors
offered me a position with the ReUaea0
which accepted, believing Maj. Muir
raw would lake the VIRGINIAN.
/ now understand that Maj. Murray
declines TO take the VIRGINIAN, and ex-
cuses his breach of contract on the
RfOuIu UllbU lIdtO OOhAiOSbCA A1y oOiA
with another paper. In the first place
do not think That my personal influence
is sufficient to Kill tie VIRGINIAN, were
| so disposed; then again desire to say
nave never at any time owned one dol
lar of the STOCK i'll the VIRGINIAN, and
was only connected with it as an enA-
ployee | would be great fool to bind
myself to take work from no other pa
per, in order to help one in which 1 had
10 financial interest. Such u thing Was
never mentioned nor contemplated.
When the paper was leased L, OF
course, was free to act as l saw mt. 1t
Was then that l made a contract with
the ReUieW, which contract it is my pur-
pose to keep in good faith.
desire further TO congratulate the
Busine Manager of the VIRGINIAN
upon the excellent paper he has been
getting out without all Editor. You will
please take my name from the head OF
your paper, and see that the man who
does the work gets credit for it.
With good Wishes,
l remain yours truly,

speeches were listened to with interest.
The trial lasted two days, and the pris-

Tertiary. Upon rendering the verdict
the Judge remarked that the jury had
been very merciful to the prisoner, and
had tempered justice with mercy, o feel
ing which was shared by those who are

TO-DAY IN COURT.
Lawyer Jennings Makes a Magnifi-

IsPEcIAL TO ruE NEWS. /

FALL RIVER, Sept 1.-When it became
known that the pleadings OF the defence
and prosecution would be long and ex-
haustive the public interest in the Borden
case rose again and the court room wac
filled with very anxious audience before
A. NJ. Lizzie Borden entered at 1890
and Emma did not appear. Mr.. Jennings
rose and said:
MAY it please your honor, the com
plant before you To decide to-day is as TO
how Andrew j. Borden was murdered on
August 4tb. This man was not only
my acquaintance he has been my
my boyhood. IL had been told
three weeks ago that should stand here
pleading for his youngest daughter.
should have said IL was beyond credibil-
ity. But such is the fact, and the re-
sponsibility that rests upon your honor
is great. or course your desision is not
fiual as TO her guilt or innocence, but her
friends, her reputation aud her honor rest
upon your judgment to-day.
"As to the fact there is no denying the
death OF the parties The time OF it is
statements as to IL. Mr.. Clegg states that
he saw, and three others also saw him,
Mr.. Borden down town at l0:40. IL should
take at least five minutes for him To get
home. So that he could not have rea ched
home before ten minutes to eleven.
''The time Of the alarm was given mt
police station at l1:15. This gives less
than n half hour to cover the time during
which he must have been murdered.
What took place after he got homer
Miss Sullivan says he went into dining
room, mp stairs, sat down. read paper,
talked with Lizzie and finally lie down
on sofa and all this within one half hour.
III the theory OF the government that
he was asleep before being attacked that
takes live minutes more. IL you reduce
the time in this way, you give Miss Liz
zie not TO exceed fifteen minutes or less
TO commit the murder, to clear herself Of
the traces Of blood and TO give the alarm.
Now when you consider these wounds,
