JUDGE Trips CHARGE.
GENTLEMEN OF THE JURY:-Laban Stephens,
the prisoner at the bar, is indicted Jointly with
William Jones and Luke JONES' for the crime
of murder in the first degree.
He is charged in the indictment jas princi-
pal, and so are Luke.and William Jones. I'm
der the Statutes all persons who aid and assist
in the commission of.any.crime are made prin-
cipals, to beindicted as such, and not as aiders
and abettors, and whoever aids, abets, or pro-
cures another to commit any offense, is just as
guilty under the laws of Ohio as if the unlaw-
full act was done with his own hand.
Laban Stephens placed on his separate trial
before you, and although he stands charged in
the Indictment for the commission OF the high
crime of murder in the first degree, still the law
raises the presumption of innocence in his fa-
vor, and that presumption of innocence must
stand in his favor until it is removed by such
evidence Will establish his guilt by full proof
of every material averment in the indictment
and every element necessary to constitute the
crime charged in the indictment-thati is to say
that he unlawfully, maliciously and purposely
shot and killed Anderson Lackey, while he, the
defendant, was perpetrating q robbery on the
person of the deceased.
The Indictment contains two counts, and the
first contains all the necessary averments to
constitute the crime of murder in the first de-
gree for shooting and killing Anderson Lackey,
in this county, on the 2Sth day of April, 1888,
while he, the defendant, and William Jones and
Luke Jones were perpetrating robbery on the
person of Anderson Lackey.
The second count of the Indictment need not
be considered by you, as the State by her attor-
neys does not claim that the charge therein
made has been proven before you, but admit
the proof falls short of establishing all the aver
ments of that count, and therefore now direct
you, that whatever your finding may be on the
first count of the Indictment, you should return
a verdict of "Not Guilty. as charged in the sec
ond count of the Indictment.
AS the first count charges the defendant with
the crime of murder while he was perpetrating
the crime of robbery, it becomes necessary for
you to understand what is meant by the the

AWAITING THE aUILLOTINE

So soon as the sentence Of death
is PASSED the criminal Is placed on
double allowance. The ordinary

He has, two, wardens constantly in

kilograms which reach the GLOBE of
fee at 2.3O this morning, leave no
doubt of Judge Hoadly's election in
Ohio by majority ranging from seven
to ten thousand. It should be borne in
mind in scanning the re-
turns that the comparison Is made with
the vote cast for Newman (Dem.) for
Secretary of State last year. Newman had
1915 majority over the Republican
nominee, and while in this contest the
Republicans show gains, they are not suffi-
cient to give them the state.
The Democrats are also confident of
having secured the legislature.
The election of Judge Hoa6ly means
that Ohio can be placed in the column of
Democratic states next year and that
means the election of Democratic presi-
dent. This was the initial battle of 1884,
and the Democratic victory now, makes
success next year comparatively easy.
While Ohio has occasionally been car
RED by the Democrats, it has ranked as a
Republican state but the victory yester-
day places it securely ia the Democratic
ranks. If in the face of local dissension
the Democrats could carry Ohio yester-
teday, no fear need be entertained of Ler
position next year. It was naional con-
test and q national victory.
Iowa is not much of shower. It gives
q Republican majority of over $4,000 but
no one expected anything from Iowa, and
it cuts no figure save upon Iowa soil and
Iowa local Office holders.
The Democrats have no need or use for
Iowa.

ARTHUR,S BAD EMINENCE.

Col. Thomas M. BaJne is the Republican
member of congress from the Pennsylva
MIA district in which his place of residence
the city of Pittsburg, is located. Not
withstanding his bad politics, Col. Bayne
is level-headed man. He took run
down to Washington last week, and being
fresh arrival, fell in with the newspaper
man. The question was directed to
him, "Could President Arthur carry
New York next fell if nominated ~
mo, sir, not by one hundred thousand
majority" he promptly said. 81 believe
he would be defeated by two hundred thou
sand majority" he added.
''How would he go in Ohio?" his ques-
toner continued.
"Arthur in Ohio! why he would be over
whelmed with defeat there. No sir, he
couldn't carry Ohio, New York, nor India
ma, nor even Pennsylvania, in all proba-
ability. But he won't be nominated. The
Republicans have more sense than that
would show.
"Where is the President popular, any
way" was the next Interrogation point.
''The Lord only knows; I don't. He's
the worst YETI was the frank reply of the
Pennsylvania statesman. The better class
of men in the Republican party are dis
gusted with Arthur, though very few of
them have the frankness of Col. Bayne,
and say SO. If they would talk they would
speak as be does. Yet there is no man in
the grand old party who is moro available
than Arthur, and hope of success with him
is absolutely dead. More than likely he
will be nominated, for the reason, that
none of the Republican statesmen who
have, il the haIygon days, exhibited Pres
idantial ambition are willing to deliber-
ately step into the yawning jaws of defeat

SAN Francisco, Oct. 9.-Lieutenant

distributing among the Tchuckehee In
dams five thousand dollars worth of pres

recognition of the shelter and food they
afforded the officers and crew of the steam
er Rogers, burned in 1881, reports the dis
covery of an immense river, heretofore
unknown. The river had been vaguely
spoken of by the Indians to former ex-
piorers, and Storey, being compelled to
await the return trip of thu Corwin, deter
termined to see if there was anything in it..
Accompanied by ons attendant and an in
terpreter, he proceeded inland from
latham inlet in southern direction until
he struck what he believed to be the
mysterious river. He traced it to its
month, distance of about fifteen miles,
where he saw such immense pieces of
floating timber as to satisfy him the stream
must be of immense size. He retraced
