SAN ANTONIO. August 21.-Charles Ward
was executed in the county jail in this city
at 2 y. M, for outraging the person of Do
IA Ellenman. Ward, after mounting the
gallows, spoke twenty minutes incoherent-
ly, declaring his innocence and that he new
err did anything criminal in his life. These
statements are regarded as false through
out. The evidence against him is plain and
pointed. Life was declared extinct in five
and half minutes after the drop fell. The
body was cut down after twenty-five min
utes and placed in a coffin and taken charge
of by friends. He was from Athens, Ala
bama, and thirty-fve years old.

ro.DAy's TELEGRApH1c DISPATCHES,

The ssCoupon Killer" Bill sustained by Divided
CourtThe Csse to be Taken to tho U. S. su-
preme Court.
Especial Dispatch to the Alexandria Gazette
RICHMOND, Va. April 2G-The Supreme
Court of Appeals to-day rendered its opin-
ion in the case involving the constitution
alty of the law enacted by the recent Legis-
lature known as the ''coupon killer bill y
Four judges sat in this case and the court
was equally divided in their opinion as to
the conslilutionality of the law, two sustain
ing it and two opposing it,
This law was passed by the readiusters
for the purpose of preventing, as far as pos
sible, coupons from being received by the
State i'll payment of taxes 1t required
that before the coupons could be received
by any treasurer they should be submitted
to some court of record in the Common
wealth who should pass upon their genuine
ness. This would have subjected the hold
ers to so much annoyance, and cost in most
cases, that ii would prevent their Use in
payment Of demands due the State.
Mr.. W. l.. Royal, who is counsel for the
bondholders in this case says that he will
carry il TO the Supreme Court Of the L. S.
The action Of the court to-day slstains
the bill and its legality is confirmed so far
! as the courts Of the State are concerned
