V LIZZIE HOR11EN. .4
No criminal case in tho history of this
or any other country excited so much
attention as the one tried recently in
the quaint little town of New Bedford,
Massachusetts.
A •••'"'ig girl was charged with the
mo ho ous of crimes committed in
the i os revolting matter.
The stepmother, it was proved was
killed first. To have been killed by
Lizzie without leaving any trace, the
act must have been done by the young
girl in a perfectiy neud state.
This was also true of her own father,
who. it was proven, was killed while
asleep' on the sofa one hour after the
murder of his wife.
After a most remarkable and search
ing trial Lizzie Borden was acquitted.
The case was tried before learned
jurists, intelligent jurymen and law
yers of national reputation. The trial
lasted many days, every detail of which
is familiar to the public.
Since Lizzie Borden’s acquittal she
has been quietly at her home attending
to the settling of her father's estate,
which amounted to and over $100,000.
She has been the recipient of many
letters from crowds—both male and fe
male—including several offers of mar T
riage. Her manner has been morose
and melancholy to an unusual degree.
This, however, was considered perfect
ly natural.
It is not known what statement she
has made and anything like definite in
formation is hard to get, but it is un
derstood that she has admitted that she
was the murderer of her father and his
wife. ■»
New York. July 27.—A special to the
World from Pittsburg, Kan., says:
All is excitement in the coal fields of
the Cherokee district. So bitter did the
strikers become that it was feared that
more riots would follow, and aid from
Governor Lewelling was invoked. That
official has telegraphed the militia here
and at other points to assemble and be
in readiness to take the field.
The strikers held a meeting at Wier
City with the intention of stopping the
miners at work, but the sheriff and 75
men dispersed the strikers.
Deputies guarding a shaft were fired
upon Monday night, but succeeded in
driving off the attacking party.
That the miners have lost the strike
is conceded, but it is feared they will
yet make trouble for the imported mi
ners, as they are desperate.
This town had 10,000 persons within
its corporate limits two months ago. It
was the banking os well as the business
center of the immense coal fields of
southeastern Kansas. Forty paying
shafts and conutless strip pits were be
ing worked.
The streets were paved, electric cars
and electric lights and water works
were in operation. The place had the
appearance of a city of prosperity.
Every shaft and pit was in full swing,
and the streets were filled with persons
who had money to spend 63 days ago.
Six thousand miners were at work in
and around Pittsburg then, and the
monthly pay roll amounted to $250,000.
The ontput of coal was at the rate of
275,0 )'J carloads a year.
Now the 6,000 miners are out on a
Strike, the shafts are idle, and starva
tion stares the miners' families in the
face, the business bouses are threatened
by ruin, and despair has displaced hap
piness and contentment. Business in
Pittsburg and the surrounding hamlets
of Weir, Chicopee, Fronteuac, Yale,
Scatnmon. Lichfield and Midway are at
a standstill. Many of the miners are
leaving. Thousands are desperate.
The woful change was brought about
by politicians who engineered the strike,
it is said, for the purpose of advancing
their interests. These politicians are
Populists.
The two state senators and two rep-
-resentatives from the coal fields are
Populists. One of them, a member of
the lower house and a man who has
been indefatigable in his efforts to stir
up strife against the operators, is M. L.
Walters, who wants to be a congress
man from this district through the
grace of the miners, whose cause he is
now championing even at the head _
mob. It did not take the Populist leg”
islaturelongto discover that the mining
laws of the state should be changed.
A bill was passed by the effort of Mr.
Walters, which was calculated to raise
the wages of the miners, and which,
when it goes into effect on Sept. 1. Will
dace a good, experienced miner on a
evel with a novice. The law made
Mr. Walters popular among the miners
because it gives the diggers a substan
tial increase all round.
But. piled on top of the increase
granted them by the Populist law, the
miners in this district demand wnat is
equivalent to a still further increase of
13 cents a ton on summer and winter
mining. This is their war cry at pres
ent. and it is upon this issue that the
fight is being made. The operators de
clare that they cannot and will not pay
these prices. State Legislator Walters,
the Populist, was active in shutting
down these mines when the men agreed
to strike two months ago. It is said of
liim that he even promised to stop work
at all the shafts nntil the operators con
sented to the demands of the operatives.
Mr. Walters is now under summons
