Hlaisdell I'l idav morning charged with the killing of her father and stepmother. The courtroom was crowded to suffocation. Miss llorden's friends atcnurt were very few in number. Mr. Morse. Iiridget Sullivan, Miss Kinma liorden and City Missionary HncU were ])resent. Miss Jlonlen. the prisoner, was represented by Andrew J. Jennings. She was dressed ill adark-uiue tailor-made gown and wore a black-lace hat adorned with a few red berries. She entered the courtroom leaning on Missionary liuck's arm. She was somewhat nervous, but diil no1 show either tears or trembling. She

sel. ller sister Kmma and UPv. K. A. ltuck occupied a seat in front of the prisoner's dock.

Trial nnil Irujuost

The trial was commenced bv the entering of a plea signed and sworn to by the prisoner. It recited that the prisoner objected to the opening of a trial before a justice who was already sitting at, an inquest held to determine who committed the crime charged against her. This plea was overruled for the time being, and the judge asked for the reading of the complaint. The reading was waived and Mr. Jennings said he would enter a plea of not guilty. District Attorney Knowlton. who was eonducting the prosecution, insisted that Miss liorden plead herself.

Xnt Utility.

Augustus li. Leonard, clerk of the court, asked her to stand up. which siie did firmly and without assistance. She was then asked to plead to charges of homicide and did so in a very weak voice at first, saying, "Not guilty." The clerk did not hear her and she raised her voice and said in quite a loml voice, "Not guilty," putting strong emphasis on the first word.

MiKH Mor-:icu*H Lawyer TroiestK.

Mr. .lennings then began to argue for the acceptance of his plea that his client should not he examined at the inquest. The proceeding was contrary to all law ami justice. He. as attorney for Lizzie liorden, had been refused permission to enter and guide his client while an inquiry was being made. It was not to be expected of iiuman nature that the same judge could act at an inquest and a trial and decide fairly in both cases. The proceeding was wholly unprecedented.

District Attorney Knowlton entered a demurrer against the plea, lie said he knew more than twenty cases in his career where similar proceedings were gone through with, and they failed to attract attention because the crimes were not attended by such extraordinary circumstances as those which preceded this arraignment. The matters of an inquest, and the matters of a trial were entirely distinct, and it was not complimentary to his honor's judgment to say that he could not act fairly in both cases. There was hot sparring, the prisoner's counsel displaying pugnacious powers.

preme .! ustice Somcrby was on the witness stand in the Iron Uall receivership ease during the entire day Friday and was subjected to a rigid examination, which hrought out all the facts regarding his connection with the order and the methods adopted to save the hank in I'hiladelphia of which he is an oliice.r. and in which so much of the order's money is deposited.

Oil the point as to the assets of Unorder the supreme justice testified that tile order owned the building in which the otl'ices are located in this city, lie thought it was probably worth SWi.OOO. lie testified that lie did not know what securities in tho way of bonds tho order owned, it had not invested in any bonds or mortgages since he had been supreme just ice. The order's money hud not been loaned at interest and had not. returned any profit. He said there was at the present time under the control of the supreme sitting Sl, t00,000 in cash. He was asked as to where the money was deposited and ho said he thought about S51S,OOU was deposited in Indianapolis banks, lie said S713,000 was transferred to liis bank in Philadelphia.

Mr. Somerby then admitted that when the Mutual Trust and Hanking Company (his bank) of I'hiladelphia was embarrassed last April he used S1TO.OOO of the funds of the Iron Hall to avert, as he expressed it, "the wreckage. of the Iron Hall through the bank." The supreme justice told the following story of how the money was used: "I think tt was on a Kuturdiiy the I inn It ex-iunlni-rof that slate closed the Mutual bank and nuiile an examination. We hail every reasi'ii to believe It an attempt to wreck the Iron Hull. After an Investigation it was ilis covered thai a large amount of the order's funds were on deposit If the bank went Into the receiver's hands it would entail a heavy loss on tlie order. A nicotian was ealtcd. M. (.'. Davis was there from Indianapolis. It was concluded if the bunk was wri cked it meant a receiver for the order. We had lo lo something. The assets were scanned and we aKi eed to protect the cashier If the order would donate ftlTO.IHKi, wliieh would tide over the bank and save the order. This was to be donated to tho stockholders. This acl was done voluntarily by M. C. Davis, who agreed to fur nish the money outside of the Iron Hall if the Iron Hal! would protect him. I understand an agreement or that kind was made by some ol the members of the. order in tlmt city. Tinmoney was contributed and when the call carne the money v.as presented and the bank proceeded fculo busihe.is."

Tlio witness was asked a number of questions regarding the different funds in the bank, buthe appeared not to be well posted upon its affairs, his only information being such as he received from others, lie finally confessed that he hail had trouble with one of tho directors, nnd since that time lie had not been near the bank. lie wan asked if a warrant was drawn for the 81

TO,000 that was given to the bank, and replied ihat it was not, but eon fessed that the constitution required warrants to be issued for all sums drawn from the treasury. Somerby was still on the stand when court adjourned for the night.

FLOOD AT THK

BOSTON, AUR\ i:i.--Tho tcrrilic thunderstorm which swept across eastern Massachusetts Friday morning broke all record* as a producer of rain and lightning. In Hostou the fall of rain in the first ten minutes of the shower measured 85-100 of an inch and the total fall for the three hours during which it rained was 'Jil-100 inches. Man}* stores were Hooded in Boston, the heaviest sulVorcrs being M. M. Cotton & Co., carpet dealers, whose' stock was damaged to the extent of £15,000.

Mrs. George Aldon, a young woman whose husband is a tin dealer at Brockton. Mrs. Aldcn was in one of the chambers engaged in dressing one of her children at the time of the stroke.
