 NEW BEDFORD, Mass, June 12.-At the
 afternoon session of the Borden trial a
 new game of the women became manifest.
 Those who have not been there in the
 morning get their dinner cleared away
 early and flock to the court house, and by
 the time the morning crowd gets back
 from dinner their seats are filed The
 cross examination of Officer Hyde de-
 veloped nothing new. The city records
 were then read to determine the date of
 the marriage of MT. and Mrs. Borden and
 the age of the prisoner.
 Medical Examiner Dolan was then called
 and gave testimony as to his examination
 at the Borden house on the day of the murder and the conversation
 with the prisoner. He identified the pieces of osrpst taken from the floor under MT. Berden's hse1, described the condition of the blco1 found at eaoh body, that of Mrs Borden being cossul.ted, while MT. Bcrden's was warm and dripping. Wit nees analysed the milk uesd by the Bor- den's August and 4, and sent some of 1t, with the stomeoh of the murdered couple to Professor Weed of Harvard. In examin- ing the hatchets he found on the claw hammer two hairs, one on the blade and another on the fibre of the wood, near where 1t gees into the handle, and saw several spots on the handle which looked like blood, the blade seemed to have been scraped.
 In MT. Borden's pockets were found t21 kl fp nl h ht. L... and other jewelry were intact; witness did not take the bloody handkerchief found in the room with the body of Mir Borden; thought 1t was burned with the other bloody clothing. The piece of mopboard, the pillow-sham and marble slab, with the piece from the kitchen door, with blood on them, were identified by witness and placed in evidence. Witness was shown dress skirt belonging to the prisoner, which he thought was the one upon which he de- teoted spot of blood when he first saw 1t. He could not find the spot. but there was a hole where he thought the spot had been. |
 Plaster casts of the heads of the mur- derod people with the locations of the | wounds were then brought in, and the l witness minutely described the positions l of the wounds; he had made a l autopsy and found no other | cause of death gave these wounds; the up- per intsstlnes on Mrs. Borden's body were filled with undigested foci; the lower ones were empty. In Mir. Borden the upper ones were empty, while the lower ones con- tained some pieces. Witness thought Mrs. Borden hed dicd at least one hour and l half before MT. Borden, the condition of | the stomachs would tend to show this fact. |
 After Dr. Dolsn had described the au- topsy on the bodies of the Bordens, he | under erosg-exsm!nation by MT. Adams, his opinion given in the prelimi. | nary hearing that the claw-hammered hat ohet would fit all the wounds, still he | thought this hstchet could have made the | wounds in the hee1. When witness re- moved the heads he did not give notics to | the daughters of the fact; witness did not | say there was blood on the hstchets when | he ssw them, but something that looked | ike blood. He knew now that the hairs | he found were not human hairs.
