Captain and Crew of Schooner Holland
Brought to this City.

Captain and Crew of Schooner Holland
Brought to this City.
On the steamer Berkshire which ar
rived at the wharf of the Merchants aud
Miners Transportation company at the
foot Of South Main street yesterday
were Captain Stevens and the crew of
the four-masted schooner John Holland.
These passengers bad lost their vessel
of Cape Henry through collision which
occurred early last Friday morning. Ac-
cording to Captain Stevens the Holland
was off Cape Henry at 3;45 o'clock Friday
morning and was bowling along with all
sail set when an English tramp steamer
came along. The weather was clear so
there was no excuse for the collision,
Captain Stevens says. The steamers
course gradually drew nearer that of the
the big schooner when suddenly It was
changed sharply to the starboard.
A collision was unavoidable unless
the steamers course was changed. Cap
tain Stevens shouted aud shouted, but
all to no purpose. The steamer contin-
ued on and struck the Holland with
crushing force on the port bow. The
opening extended several feet below the
waler line. and the captain and his men
would escape going down with the ves-
sci.
A boat was launched, aud into IL were
put few necessary articles hastily picked
up. The boat then pushed off and five
minutes later the Holland went down
with all sail set. The captain and crew
were picked up by the steamer Michigan
and brought to Norfolk. where they took
passage on the Berkshire.
The Holland was owned in Dover,
y. H., whittier Captain Stevens went TO
report the loss.

who does his foul deeds beyond the sight
and hearing OF men. All it means is this
mt when one sees the crime commit
ted or one hears the crime com mitted
then the testimony Of him that sees or
hears Is the testimony Of witness who
saw 1t or heard 1t, and Is direct evil
dence.
"All other evidence Is circumstantial
evidence. That is the exact distinction.
Direct evidence is the evidence, evidence
of a man who sees and hears; circum-
stantial evidence is all other kinds of
evidence"
lie adroitly instanced examples Of cir
cumstantial evidence and among them
Crusoe discovering footprints on the
shore OF this lonely island. He said he
needed no direct evidence that other
men had been there. He didn't need to
see them, the footprints were enough.
Then he went on TO the difference in time
daughter must have kno wn Of the moCh-
ers death.
The motive for the crime next COM
manded his attention. 1t was "malice
against Mrs. Borden" 1t was Mrs. Bor-
den whose life that wicked person
sought; and all the motive that we have
TO consider, all we have to say about
this case bears on her.
Then he brought in the skeleton I'm
the Borden family" drawing as his con-
clusion that because Lizzie ceased call
ing Mrs Borden mother she hated her
with such an intensity as to lead her to
kill both Mrs. Borden aud her own
father. The evidences of ill-will rested
in the facts that there had long previ-
ously beeh quarrel over some property
ana that the girls did not eat their
meals always with Mrs. Borden. He
then detailed at some length the hist ory
OF the morning OF the murders,
laying special stress Oh the fact
that no one ever showed up who
sent or took the note to Mrs Borden.
This statement he characterized as lie.
Gentlemen, incredulity can sometimes
be dismissed by evidence, but am not
looking ia the face OF one single man
that will believe for an instant that the
writer OF that note would not months
ago have come forward and cleared that
thing up. There never was one."
His argument was closed here for the
day and the court room was soon left
deserted.
