According to tho story Printed in tn
Boston GIobe,

Boston GIobe.
BosroX, MASS, Oct. l0.-The Boston
Globe this morning publishes a thirteen
column story from Fall River, setting
forth in detail new and startling evil
dence for the prosecution in the Borden
murder cases, which 1t says is IN the
hands OF the police and is to be given
by twenty-five new witnesses who will
testify at the coming trial OF Miss
Borden.
The evidence the Globe states is forth
coming from people all of whom stand
high in the communities where they
live, and who could have no motive for
speaking maliciously or untruthfully OF
the defendant
Briefly stated that the new evidence,
according to the Globe is rs follows:
John II. Murphy, OF Fall River, will
testify that he was on the sidewalk close
TO the Borden house when Mr.. Borden
entered his house about l0:40 on Aug
ust 4, and he saw him minute or two
later ushered into the lobby by Bridget
Sullivan. Mr.. Murphy will swear that
while Mr.. Borden was walking in the
yard lie saw window blind OF the room
in which Mrs. Borden's body was found
cautiously opened by young woman,
who had that same morning told him
when he called at the Borden house
about $3.50 the same morning that "her
father had gone down town and would
not be back till noon or later"
This woman he has identified rs tho
defendant Lizzie Borden. The window
Mr.. Murphy designates as the one
which he saw Miss Lizzie is SO situated
that she must have been standing over
the mutilated remains OF her mother at
the very time her father was about to
enter the house.
The next witness OF Importance is
Mrs. Gustav Ronald, of Pawtucket, r.
l., who was a guest at the Wilbur
House. About $40 on tho morning OF
the murder she was wheeling her baby
carriagei near the Borden house when
she heard terrible cry or groan. She
looked up at the Borden house and
saw in room through partially
open window, woman whose head
was in part covered by rubber cap
or hood, whose face she saw plainly, as
6Ilt AlOOu SuOII
window she has designatedisthe sameas
the one pointed out by Mr.. Murphy.
Mrs. Ronald was almost that minute
approached by Mr.. Peter Mahany, Of
Fall River. He likewise had heard the
groan, seen the woman Mt the window
who wore the peculiar head covering,
and recognized her as the younger
daughter Of the Borden family, all
members Of which he knew quite well
by sight.
Augustus Cunning, Mt that time q
lodger in Mrs. ChurchilIs house, is said
to have seen Lizzie Borden in the win
dow ut the same time and under the
same circumstances. These witnesses,
the Globe says, fix Miss Borden at her
mothers side almost at the minute
when she probably was killed and
when Miss Lizzie, according to her own
statement, was elsewhere.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fredrick Chase, OF Fall
River, and Mrs. Abigail Manchester,
their daughter, were friends OF the
elder Borden's and visited them on the
evening previous to the murders. They
overheard, it is stated, quarrel be-
tween Lizzie and her father. All heard
Mr.. Borden say: "You can make your
own choice and do it tonight, Either
let us know what his name is or take
that door on Saturday; and, when you
go fishing for some other place to live. |
will never listen to you again. will
know the name OF the man who got you
into trouble"
Lizzie is said to have replied: "If l
marry this man will you be satisfied
that everything will be kept from the
outside world" When the visitors
were announced and conversed with
Mr.. and Mrs. Borden on the subject of
the quarrel. Mr.. Borden said II would
rather sec her dead than have it come
out"
