DIRECTED AGAINST COL. AINSWORTH.

SENSATIONAL SCENE IN COURT. WASHINGTON, June 13.—At Monday's session ol the Kurd theater inquest a well-dressed man walked forward and in a voice trembling with passion, shaking his fist in Col. Ainsworth's face, shouted: "You've murdered my brother, and you shan't sit there intimidating these witnesses." The man was Charles Bancs, whose brother was a victim of the disaster. After the uproar thus occasioned had quieted, Mr. Davis, representing Col. Ainsworth, started to speak, when a dozen excited department clerks rose to their feet and shouted for him to sit down. The lieutenant of police present endeavored to quiet the outbreak, but his voice was as ineffectual as it would have been in a cyclone. The excitement grew in intensity. Nearly every clerk present who was employed in \hc old theater building was on his feet shouting. At first they only called "Sit down," "Shut your mouth." Hut finally some frenzied individual cried: "Hang him hang him!" Men were springing forward by this time and many spectators present sought cover.

Blade Iltm Quail.

Col. Ainsworth, who was sitting with his counsel at a table facing the six jurymen, quailed perceptibly at this clamor, and his few friends and a squad of police formed a guard about him. It was lucky that they did so, for the crowd made a forward movement as if to execute their cry, and in the turmoil Ainsworth was hurried through a side door of the hall to a place of safety. Had it hot been for the presence of the police Col. Ainsworth would have undoubtedly suffered bodily injury.

After this outburst it was impossible for the coroner to proceed further and lie announced that the Inquest would be adjourned until to-day at the station house of the First police precinct. This precipitated a cry against a star chamber investigation aud an indignation meeting was at once organized. As a result of the discussion a committee was appointed to wait on the president of the United States and ask him to suspend Col. Ainsworth pending the result of the investigation by the coroner's jury and the court of inquiry ordered by the socretary of war.

Feeling has been running high against Col. Ainsworth ever since the sad affair occurred, it being alleged that lie was a martinet and would not permit the clerks in his bureau to be furlouglied while repairs were being made at the old theater, although it was known to bo unfit for occupancy and unsafe. Monday's demonstration has put an and to a further public trial.

Frequently Warned.

The principal witness of the day was Smith Thompson, a clerk in the theater building, who made a bitter speech denouncing Col. Ainsworth at the relief meeting Friday. "Had you ever heard any warning about the stairwa3'?" aslted the deputy coroner. "Frequently, frequently. Servants or messengers of Col. Ainsworth who were stationed on the stairway notified us with biited breath that it was Col. Ainsworth's orders that employes should go easily on tiptoe up and down the stairs. The building was known to all the clerks as the death-trap, but one's bread and butter depended on working there, so what could we do?"

The witness said that he had been a civil engineer. Every day he went below stairs and watched the jirogress of the excavation. He saw no pillars or props used in holding up the first floor while the excavation was going on. Concerning the one stairway in the theater building, Mr. Thompson said it was not sufficient for the rapid exit of half the clerks with safety.

Afraid of Ainsworth.

Just at this stage in Mr. Thompson's testimony there was a strange scene, illustrating the bitter feeling against Col. Ainsworth. A majority of the spectators present at the inquest were clerks who were employed in the old theater building. Mr. Warner, one of the jurors, asked the witness what was the feeling of the clerks in the theater building toward their superior ofticer, Col. Ainsworth. "That of abject fear," answered Mr. Thompson, impressively.

A slight buzz, a shifting of chairs and a burst of handclapping that lasted a quarter of a minute followed. It came from a portion of the room where most of the clerks were sitting. Dr. Shaeffcr looked astonished, Col. Ainsworth grow red.

Mr. Warner said he had asked the question because there seemed to be a belief that the feeling that existed between Col. Ainsworth and every man in the office was such that had they made a suggestion as to the safety of the building it would have jeopardized their positions. Mr. Warner asked if there was such a feeling of fear that the clerks were afraid to make suggestions as to the dangerous condition of the building. "It was, Mr. Warner emphatically it was," was the answer.

Won't Low Their Places.

At this point Dr. Seliaeffcr, deputy coroner, read a letter received from Col. Lamont, secretary of war. It was to the effect the secretary had learned that an apprehension exists among the department employes that they may jeopardize their positions by testifying before the jury. Such apprehension, the letter said, was entirely groundless.

No employe of the department will endanger his position in any way on account of any such testimony given before the coroner's jury in this case.

Predicted Their Fate.

Jefferson W. Carter, a clerk on the third flppr oi

the wrecked building, was

the next witness. He said that there had been a common rumor among the clerks that the building was insecure. He had heard casual comments about the insecurity of the building while the excavation was being made, and only the other day—June 8 or 4—William Schreiber, who was killed in the disaster, said to him, pointing to the excavation: "Carter, I see they're digging us a grave." Both Schreiber and Mulledy, who were killed, ha,d frequently spoken to him about the dangerous condition of the building.

Warned to Be Careful.

The first witness in the afternoon session was David H. P. Brown, a third floor clerk, who said that since January 0, 1883, he had heard the building was unsafe. He had been instructed to go carefully up and down the stairway in the theater building nearly every afternoon by a messenger called "Sergeant."

Mr. Brown was asked if there was any fear on the part of the clerks that they would be disturbed if they protested against remaining in the building. "Yes, sir," he answered, and then quickly added, "1 decline to answer that question." "On what grounds do you decline to to answer?" asked Dr. Shaeffcr. "On the ground of my own position." "Did you hear the letter of the secretary of war read promising protection to clerks who testified?" "Yes, sir," was the answer. "I do n&t fear Col. Ainsworth, for he has done me two favors, but I do fear Mr. Freeth" (whom Mr. Thompson called "Col. Ainsworth's right bower.")

Mr. Brown finally said there was much feeling about the Insecurity of the building and a great many clerks, himself among them, would have protested, if they had had the courage to do so, against being kept in the old theater. "What had the clerks to apprehend?" was asked. "Discharge," said Mr. Brown.

Ainsworth Wouldn't Withdraw. J. S. Smith, a first floor clerk, testified that any feeling that might have been developed was not directed to Col. Ainsworth, but to other officials, particularly Jacob Freech. At this point the sensational interruption referred to In the beginning of this dispatch occurred. During the excitement Juror B. II. Warner, a wealthy citizen, suggested to the coroner that the episode that had just occurred showed the existence of a feeling that would best be silenced by tlio withdrawal of the party against whom it was directed. He continued: "Imentlonno names, but simply make the suggestion that the party most concerned should withdraw. There Is a belle among many of thoso here thai his presence serves as an Intimidation to witnesses. There Is a feeling here which does not break out. but which is nevertheless present, that Intimidation Is being oarriod on, and 1 therefore object lo the presence of any person who Is likely to be blamed for participation tn this affair."

Loud applause followed Mr. Warner's remarks, and Dr. Sliaeffer whispered a request to Col. Ainsworth to withdraw He refused to do so, however, and the coroner turning to the jury said he hail no right to exclude from the hearing any person who was likely to be a party to the verdict.

Juror Hanvy said he had been told by a dozen clerks that they had been afraid to testify and would have refused to do s« but for the letter of the secretary of war.

Warner Quells the Tumult. F" A mad rush bad just begun in the direction of Col. Ainsworth when Juror Warner rose and standing on his chair begged for order. He said: "Th's outbreak of feeling must be suppressed, not by the strong hand ot the law but by the hand of the fraternity. (Applause.) I appeal to you to have fair play as American citizens and not to stain the name of the glorious capital of this republic. 1 appeal to you la the name of the Master who reign* above."

The crowd fell into Mr. Warner's way of thinking and cried "Yes, yes." He saw his advantage and made an appeal to let the question of allowing Col. Ainsworth to remain be settled by cool heads. When he took his seat, however, there were more threatening murmurings and Dr. Shaeffer quickly adjourned the inquest.

LONO CHASE.

VIMALIA, Cal., June 13.—After a search extending over ten months aud after six encounters with different legal posses the notorious train robbers, John Sontag and Chris Evans, were finally met Sunduy night by four deputy United States marshals and as* a result of the encounter which followed Sontag was wounded, possibly fatally, and is now in custody, having been brought here at 10:30 Monday forenoon. His companion, Chris Evans, escaped after firing forty shots at his pursuers. Where lie made his stand he left his hat and two empty guns, and thp ground was found covered with blood, indicating that he, too, is wounded. The four officers who made attack upon the bandits were United States Marshal Gard and his deputy, Edward Rapeljp. a deputy sheriff of Fresno county, Fred Jackson, an officer from Navada, aud Thomas Burn, who was with Badger when the letter was shot by the robbers last month.

The Battle (login*.

The officers had been in the mountains for weeks looking for the robbers, and Sunday afternoon encamped at a vacant house 18 miles northeast from this city. About twenty minutes before sunset Rapelje went to the rear door of the house and saw two men coming down the hill and toward the place. On closer observation it was discovered that the men were no other than Evans and Sontag, the fugitive desperadoes. Evans was in the lead and carried a rifle and Bhotgun, and Sontag was armed with simple a rifle. Rapelje turned around to his comrades in the house and said: "Hello, here comes two men down hill." Tlie jumped up quickly and grabbed their guns and prepared to make fight. As the officers went around the back corner Evans saw Rapelje and throwing his rifle to his shoulder took deliberate aim and fired.

Sontag: Is Wounded.

Just then Jackson stepped around be' hind Rapelje and opened fire on the bandits. Sontag was seen to throw up both hands and fall backward. Then the firing became general, and Evans returned the shots with vengeance. Evans got behind old rubbish pile and kept up a raking fusillade. Jackson went around the far end of the house to see if he could get a better place from which to shoot, and as he went around he was shot in the left leg. Forty shots were exchanged between the officers and the bandits, but the sun went down and darkness ended the battle.

Evans Escapes.

Evans was seen to crawl on his stomach from behind the rubbish, and Rapelje again opened fire upon him. Evans then rose to his feet and ran toward the hills, followed by Rapelje, who continued firing. Evans did not return the fire and in a few minutes was out of sight. Rapelje returned to the house and procuring a wagon brought Jackson to this city soon after midnight. Marshal Oard ami Burns remained at the scene until morning. Sontag lay behind a stack of hay all night, where he was found by Gard and Burns. Sontag says he spit blood all night. There is a glancing wound along his forehead and one on each side of his nose. It is claimed that he inflicted these wounds himself, though this is denied.

Hope to Catch lllin.

Evans' trttcks show that he started toward Visalia, and his home will be watched day and night Sontag talks freely and says the jig is UJJ aud he does not care for the future. It is possible that Sontag may recover from his wounds, though attending physicians will express no decided opinion. Officers are now searching the hills in hope of finding Evans, and thus completing at once the long chase.

The Collls Train Robbery.

[The train robbery, which was the beginning of his criminal chapter, occurred at a station named Collls, near Fresno, Cal., August 3,1892. An express car was blown up with dynamite and Express Messenger George D. Roberts seriously Injured. Officers soon after arrested George Sontag bt the house of Chris Evans in this city. He was afterward tried and sent to the penitentiary for life. When an attempt wis mado to arrest EvanB he and John Sontag opened fire on the ofllcors, wounding George Witty.

A POINT GAINED.

Important Decision in the Borden Murder Trial * * *

THE ACCUSED WEEPS FOR GRATITUDE. * * *

The Court Decides to Exclude Lizzie Borden's Evidence at the Inquest — Dr. Dolan Says Mrs.Borden Died First * * *

HER EVIDENCE EXCLUDED. NEW BEDFORD, Mass., June 13. — In the Borden trial Monday Mr. Moody spent three-quarters of an hour in maintaining the admissibility of Miss Borden's evidence before the coroner's jury, claiming the rule to be that testimony is admissible if voluntary, and arguing that the defendant's conduct and declarations showing consciousness of guilt would be admissible, even if the defense should claim that a confession would not be.

Ex-Gov. Robinson made a lengthy and pathetic plea for the suppression of the contradictory and suspicious evidence given by the defendant at the inquest. He said that day and night previous to the inquest the police were at her house and the house was surrounded and the inmates dogged at every step. For three days the police and district attorney questioned and cross-ques-tioned this lone woman, who had no friend to turn to. The warrant for her arrest was under her eyes all this time. If that'was freedom God save the commonwealth. She had not been informed of her right to decline to answer questions. She was not cautioned. She was led into a trap. The inquest was merely a scheme to "do up" the prisoner.

Mr. Moody denied that the prisoner had been hounded by the police or that they had set a trap for her. She was not cautioned by the magistrate, but her counsel was told before she testified that he could confer with her and inform her of her constitutional rights. She conferred with her counsel, and went into the witness chair fully aware of all her constitutional rights.

At the conclusion of the arguments the court decided to exclude Miss Borden's testimony. She Wept for Joy.

The prisoner was visibly affected by the court's decision and remained some minutes with her face covered with her fan. Patrolman Joseph Hyde was then called and described seeing the prisoner, with Miss Russell, go down cellar with a pail to the sink at 8:45 on the night after the murder. The prisoner made a second visit to the cellar alone a few minutes later. On crossexamination he said they had a light, but Miss Russell looked nervous.

Mrs. Borden Died First.

Dr. Albert C. Dedrick was called. He testified to an examination of the bodies on the afternoon of the murder. In his opinion Mrs. Borden died first.

Medical Examiner Dolan identified the hatchet taken from the floor under Mr. Borden's head, described the condition of the blood found with each body, that of Mr. Borden being warm and dripping and that of Mrs. Borden coagulated.

The cast of Mr. Borden's head was introduced and handed to the doctor so that he might explain how the wounds were located. One of the wounds was four inches long another was half an inch longer than that. Miss Borden, when the cast of her father's head was brought in, covered her eyes with her fan. She didn't remove it even when addressed by Lawyer Adams. "In your opinion," the doctor was asked, "could the wounds you found upon the head of Mrs. Borden have been inflicted by a woman of ordinary strength?" "Yes." "How long, in your opinion, was Mrs. Borden dead before Mr. Borden?" "About an hour and a half or two hours." * * *
