Ransom, mayor of the town of FL Paso, Wood.
foru county, In Inis STATE, got into an alterca-
ton with one T. &. Bullock, highly respect
able business man of that place, and without
any apparently sufficient provocation, shot
him dead The town, and the whole county,
indeed, became so excited over the murder
and the feeling ran so strongly against Ran.
som, that on his indictment for murder, a
change Of venue was taken, and he was tried
at Lacon, Marshall county. The trial was one
of the most notable that ever took place in this
state Five able lawyers, including w. w
OBrlen of Chicago, were engaged for the
prosecution, and seven equally able lawyers
headed by E. A. Storrs OF Chicago, managed
the defense The trial lasted two weeks, end
ing last Saturday night in verdict of acquit
tall The verdict, it appears, was wholly un
expected, and the people of III Paso are in the
highest state of excitement and indignation
over it. The FL Paso JOuf1,oL on Monday ap
peared with the names of the judge and jury
in mourning treating the verdict, of course
with the profOundest contempt and disgust. II
is not believed with the feeling against him
that Ransom will dare to return to his home
in FL Paso and undertake hereafter to lIv,
there.

to Chicago and got lot Of medicine war
rantedn to relieve her without disgrace of the
effects of her indscretion, and persuaded her

an agreement with the lady that she should
not prosecute him for breach of promise
or bastardy, he engaged to send her away to
be operat,d upon tor abortion by a safe and
competent physician, and for that purpose
sent her to Lafayette, Ind, where reputable

abundant opportunities; twenty years OF civil
