That Was shortly AFTER the Terrible Mus-
der OF Mr.. aad Mrs. Borden.
NEW BEDFORD, Mass, June 17.-There
was less of a crowd at the courthouse
Friday morning at the resumption OF
the Borden trial than there has been
at any time since the beginning
of the trial. Among the early
visitors was Miss Emma Borden, who
Is, IL is understood, to be called BY the
defense, although she was down rs q
government witness. Miss Lizzie told
ex-Gov. Robinson as he greeted her
Friday morning that she had not passed
q very restful night; and the intimation
came, with cheering smile, that she
would feel better by and by.
The decision relative to the admis-
sion of the evidence of the Portuguese
who saw the man with the bloody
hatchet and maundering about 'Poor
Mrs. Borden" was in order the first
thing Friday morning, and after the
jury had been polled counsel entered
into q consultation with the justices
upon some points which the latter de-
sired made clearer. Following this
the court said it was clear that the evi.
dence could not be admitted.
The first witness Friday was Sarah
r. Hart. She testified to having passed
the Borden house at $50 on the day OF
the murders ''On the day Of the muir.
ders," she said, 81 passed by Mr.. Bor.
denis house with my sister-in-law,
Mrs. Manly, about $3.50 a. m; we
passed by the north gate and stopped
there to speak to my nephew, who
was there in carriage, and went up to
the back of his carriage. While was
there I saw young man standing in
the gate way. 1t was not Mr.. Borden.
He was resting his head on his left
hand, his elbow being on the gate post.
l was there five minutes, and he was
there when I went away. He did not
change his position that I noticed. He
turned his head to look at me. I did
not know the man."
