LIES FROM BEGINNING TO END
District-Attorney Knowlton Says He Never
Received white Cap" Letters.

FALL RIVER, Mass, Dec. S.-The clerk
In the Hargraves mill Office, who has been
widely reported as having expressed him
self violently to grand juror upon the
Borden case, during the recess OF the jury,
gives this version OF the affair:
A number of gentlemen were in the Of
flee OF the mill on business and began to
talk about the Borden case, as to whether
the jury would or would not indict. One
gentleman told what he would like to do
II they brought in an indictment and
another said: "You'd better be careful
what you say, perhaps one OF the Grand
Jury is in the room now" Nothing was
said in answer to this. Immediately the
conversation changed and no word threat
ening or criticising the Grand Jury in any
way was spoken by the clerk referred TO
or by any other clerk, and no member OF
the Grand Jury was present.
District Attorney Knowlton SAYS the
statements regarding the alleged threat
ening "White Cap" letter received by him
from Brattleboro, VT, are Giles from be-
ginning TO end"

CHARGED WITH KiOTING.
All Members of the Yale Freshman Class
May be Arrested.

May be Arrested.
NEW HAVEN, Ct, Dec. s.-Judge Pick
EFT furnished startling denouement in
the Yale freshman disturbances Saturday
night when, in the city police court he
ruled that, according to the evidence pre-
sented before him, the affair mvst be
termed riot, and was, therefore, to be
treated in an entirely different manner
from that planned by the prosecuting at
torney. He based his ruling on the stat
ute, which asserts that any disturbance in
which more than four persons are impli-
Gated Is q riot, and, as five students were
arrested during the disorder Saturday
night, riot is the only term applicable
to IL.
The part the Yale faculty is playing in
relation to the disturbance OF Saturday
night was disclosed last night, when one
OF the members admitted that a tutor
who had obtained an inkling of the con-
templated celebration had attended the
New Haven opera house where the play
was broken up, and taken notes on the
action of all the Yale,men who were un-
duly boistrous.
Besides the information secured by him
the faculty has conferred with the local
police officials in relation to the matter
and obtained convincing proof implicat-
Ing several more OF the freshman class. In
all the faculty has sufficient proof TO expel
~ students at present and will not cease
their investigation until it has been made
as complete as possible.
In the meantime the local municipal
authorities will commence the prosecu-
tion OF the freshmen on the charge OF
riot. City Attorney Dow said last night
that several students, including those
whose cases were nolled, would be REAR
rested at once on charge OF rioting,
