The prosecution in the Borden trial Closed its
case Yesterday and the defence was begun.
No candid and rational person. whatever his
former or present belief regarding the matter
can say that the prosecutions case is strong
one; and if the defence fulfls the promises
made in Mr.. Jcnningss opening address. the
duty of the jury when they retire for delibera-
ton will be quickly and easily performed. 1t
is strongly iniimat-d by our correspondent that
q conspiracy was entered into by the Fall River
police to prove Lizzie Borden guilty of the I'M
natural crimes of which she stands accused.
If the trial results in the way that now seems
altogether probable. it may be the duty either
of the State or local authorities 10 make a
searching investigation On this point. These
police officers seem to have made up their
minds at the outset, and then to have sought
for facts that would support their view the

Some exceedingly interesting points will be
raised in the controversy over the amount
which should be paid to the State on the estate
of Jay Gould under the Inheritance Tax law.
The amount assessed was $500 900. but the
payment Of so large a sum is resisted by the
heirs, who. however, are willing to pay $500
Oo0. Controller Campbell has engaged SEN
atyr Hill and John X. Dos Passes to rcrreson;
the State before Surrogate Ransom and also
in the Court of Appeals, to which the case will

day to day. An authoritative deliverance on
this matter is greatly to be desired

wondered at and admired among the
new fashions Dame Nature has intro
duced this year is the entirely new type
OF zinnias, called the crested and curled
zinnias." They originated as a sport

a multitude of varieties imported from
Europe with those of home growth. They
have petals curiausly twisted and curled.

floral kingdom.
Dame Nature took them in hand not
many years ago to see what she could do
to improve their habits and with marked
success. The elegant Tom Thumb, Pig

New Statious to be Established on the
Canadian Border.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.-Commissioner
OF immigration Stump was at Win
nipeg, Man, making arrangements with
the minister of the interior there for
the establishment of immigration in
spection institutions along the Northern
border. He will arrive in st. Paul in d
few days and will also visit Neche and
st. Vincent to see what regulation
have been made there to prevent. un-
desirable immigration and also the i'm
%portation prohibited under contract
labor laws. The commissioner will
go West from st. Paul to the Pacific
coast, visiting each point on the border
where immigrants are carried. So far
he has found railroads crossing into
Canada willing to make satisfactory
arrangements to assist the department
In preventing undesirable immigrants
and contract laborers from entering the
United States. 1t is intended to estab-
lish institutions similar to Castle Gar
den at some points on the Northern
border of Minnesota and North Dakota.
This institution will probably be at
Neche or st. Vincent.

Growth Of Electric Traction.

The growth Of electric traction in this
country is n of the most marvellous
developments of the century. A leading
street railway journal draws attention
to the fact that in the past five years the
mileage of street railways operated by
electricity has increased from so miles to
over 5000 miles, which is a greater mile
age than that of all the other street rail.
ways i'll the country operated by both
animal and other forms of motive power.
OF this large total nearly one-third was
built in 1892. No estimate has yet been
given of the aggregate increase in value
in suburban property that has been i'm
proved by the running of new electric
lines, but the amount must be enormous,
as a large proportion of late installations
have been in suburban districts. partic.
ularly in the east.
In July, 1890, the street railway mileage
of the country was $3.50 miles. At the
present time it reaches q total of II ,65s
miles, or an increase of 5000 miles in the
past "a years, During 1892 there was an
additional increase of 1866 miles. Some
OF these lines have been introduced in
the most crowded parts of large cities
where it is admitted that cable traction
would be more economical. The reason
for this lies probably in the fact that il
would be far less economical to changt
from electric to cable power simply fol
the short distance than to retain the sys
tenn already in operation.

Breckenridge Suit.
LOUISVILLE, Sept. TIT is now re-
ported that Senator Blackburn has be-
come reconciled to Breckenridge and
will be n of his counsel in the Pollard
breach of promise suit. The change is
doubtless owing to the influence OF
Phil Thompson, who is Breckenridge's
counsel and Blackburn's most intimate
friend. The report that Blackburn de-
clared his purpose to hold Brecken-
ridge responsible seems to be through
reliable sources. 1t is quite certain
that Mrs. Luke Blackburn is as in
dignant as ever. She is a lady of strong
character and resolute in purpose. 1t
is believed, however, that the case will
never be tried. The strongest influence
in the state. it appears, will be brought
to bear in Breckenridge's defense.
