ces report that tho Board Of Magistrates
before whom Gen. Lane was examined for
killing Jenkins have unanimously agreed
that he was not guilty Of murder The
General then requested TO enter bail to
appear to answer to any indictment which
might be found against him; hut they de-
cided that they had no authority to do SO.
Although this acquittal is generally con-
Cured in, there are dissentients. In an
nouncing the result, the Loavenworth
Ledger says: 1--WE despise every polit-
ical sentiment Gen. Lane ever uttered,
but we feel it incumbent upon us to assent
to the jugement Of the Examining Court
and to award it all praise. y The
testimony is conclusive that Col. jenkins
was the aggressor, and that Gen. Lane
was actually shot at twice before he
showed signs of self-protection."
