side of Dodge City. According to Shorts
story the trouble began previously to the last
city election, and is fight between the tougher
element of that tough town and it's more repu-
table citizens. Which faction can lay claim to
the latter title may be somewhat pToblemati-
~acal, although Short declares his party is en-
titled TO the honor. He declares that the mayor
OF the town, acting with the mob of vigilantes
drove himself and five gamblers ont of
the town, land are preparing list of
others upon whom they intend serving
notice to skip He declares that the
vigilantes are headed by the proprietors
OF the worst dance hall in the west and it is
his intention to have martial law declared in
the town by Governor Click, having employed
attorneys in this city to go to Topeka and lay
the matter before the governor
Advices received from Dodge City since
Shorts arrival here indicate that there. are at
least two sides to the story. The other side is
that the vigilance committee is composed of
citizens of the place, and that the object of
their action is simply to rid the town of the
gamblers and prostitutes who so conduct
themselves as to render necessary such action
as has been undertaken

CHICAGO. May 10.-Judge Tuley be
gan yesterday the hearing on the information
filed several months ago by the states attor-
ney on the relation of the Chicago Hospital for
Women and Children and the Women's hos
pital, of Chicago concerning the estate of the
late Julia Rosa Newberry Miss Newberry
died of consumption at THE age of "a, in the
year 1876, possessed of estate of about & 20,
900, mostly personal property, which she
inherited from her father, the late Walter l.
Newberry, who left s., GOO 600 for the establish
mont of a public library on the north side.
Miss Newberry bequeathed her entire estate to
her mother, Mrs. Julia Butler Newberry, on
the express condition, however. that before her
mother should receive the property she should
execute viii bequeathing it to some charita-
Bile institution for women i'll the city of
Chicago Her mother declined to COM
ply with this condition, and claimed the prop
erty nevertheless, as her daughters next of
kin The probate court sustained her claim
and Miss Newberry's executor Eliphalet w
Blatchford has already paid S102, :s26 of
the estate to her. The object of the inforrna-
ton is to secure a decree, compelling Mrs.
Newberry and Batchford to pay over the
estate at once to one or the other of the rela-
tors, else to appoint receiver, who shall
hold and invest it until Mrs Newberry's death,
and then pay il over to one OF the REALTORS.

The most costly pair of shoes eve:
made in the United States were made
for young lady some years ago to wear
70 fancy dress ball given by Mr.. Aug
ust Belmont. Those who attended the
ball will recollect them, as they were
the cynosure of all eyes. The girl who
wore them had most beautiful arched
foot. They were made of yellow Span
ish velvet, with high Louis XIV heels,
and laced up she side. The eyelets for
the golden cord to pass through were
trimmed with solid gold, and to the side
of each was set precious stone, first a
ruby, then sapphire, then an emerald
then an opal, and over again in the

THE THOMPSON TRIAL.

HARRoDsBURG, KY, May 104The
empaneling of the jury to try Congressman
Phil Thompson for the murder of William
Davis was completed yesterday afternoon.
Four peremptary challenges were made by the
prosecution, and only two by the defense.
The interest in the case was SO great that men
were anxious to become jurors to be able to
hear everything, and resorted to many subter-
fuees to obtain places. As the men
were all chosen the counsel for the
prosecution asked that the jury
should be sent out of the court
room while he made statement The jury
retired and the prosecuting attorney declared
that he had ascertained since tie acceptance of
the Jury that enc of the number, Theodore
Banta was under indictment for shooting with
intent to kill, and he asked that he should be
excused from serving on the jury. After hear
ing the argument the court granted the request
and the defense noted the exception to the rul-
ing Another Juror was then. The Hon Phil.
B. Thompson Jr., was then arraigned and
pleaded not guilty. The opening statement of
the case was made by the counsel for the pres
ecution and may be epitomized as follows:
Thompson WAS. guilty of murder without
lawful excuse and if he believed his wife had
been debauched by Davis, such belief was
founded upon false information, given either
wantonly or wiekedly to him, aud for which
| ne was IN no manner excusable, as he had al
| lowed too much time to elapse to have been
overcome by sudden heat and passion since the
offense was committed to reduce the crime
| from murder to rlanslaughter, and he was too
wise and experienced to have accepted the
slight proof upon which he made so horrible
| a mistake.

PUBLIC OPINION.

The universal opinion is there will be no
conviction, with strong probabilities, however,
of hung Jury. A breeze was stirred in the
morning when States Attorney Shuck asked
for an order of arrest for Mrs. Susan Lyme, a
witness, the sheriff returning that she avoided
service of the subpoena It is understood
that Mrs Lyme heard Miss Jesse Buckner Qate
Mrs Tomlinson) VOW that she would separate
Walter Davis and hts wife, aud also separate
Phil Thompson and his wife. As Miss Buck
ner is the principal Witness against Mrs Phil.
rrnampson at the time of the alleged drunken
ness and debauchery of Thompson's wife at
CINCINNATI by Davis, it will be seen that Mrs.
ines testimony Is important in assailing Miss
Buckner's statement, which the prosecution
saws was prompted more by desire for re
-yenre than TO vindicate virtue.
Mr. Mat Curry, a prominent grocer here, IL
accused of having bean too intimate Win MISS
BIickner at the time of the alleged trouble with

This he desires to deny, as does also Mr. Nor

upon the witness stand IL can be seen
there whether the facts as rtImor reports

Mrs. Turner Fisher, wife OF Waiter LAWS
