Distriet Attorney Was Speaking


NEW BEDFORD, Mass. June ii.-Dur-
ing District Attorney Moody remarks
on the Question of the admission OF
the prisoners testimony at the inquest
Miss Borden was obliged to leave the
s,urt room through sudden indisposi-
tioa. When Miss Borden came into
court she looked dragged and told
GOV. Robinson that she had not slept
well. /.
Mr. Moody spent thre,-quarters OF
an hour in maintaining the acmlssi-
bility of Miss Borden's eviden.e before
the coroner's jury, claiming the rule
TO be that testimony is admissible II
voluntary. and arguing that the de-
PENDANTS conduct and declarations
showing consciousness of guilt would
be admissible, even il the defense
should claim that q confession would
not be.
Ex-Governor Robinson made a
lengthy and pathetic plea for the sup
preston of the contra dictory and sus-
picious evidence given by the defend
ant at the inquest He said that day
and night previous TO the inquest the
police were at her house and the house
surrounded and the inmates dogged at

She had not been informed of her
right TO decline to answer questions
She was not cautioned. She was led
into tap. The inquest was merely
scheme TO do up the prisoner.
Mr. Moody denied that the pri' oner
had been bounded b. the police or
that they had set trap for her. She

hut her counsel was told before she
te titled that he could confer with her
and inform her of her constitutional
rights She conferred with her coun-
sci. and went into the witness chair

At the conclusion of the arguments
the court decided to exclude Miss Dor
