Of his conviction. The man killed was q
young fellow by the name Of Zimmerman
who, though very decent man in general,
was drunk one Sunday evening and at
tempted to get into the Office OF the Fulton
House. William G. Huey, whose mother
kept the hotel, was in the office at the
time, and was annoyed at the persistence
ot the drunken man. He returned seq
ond time, and, violently demanding ad-
mittance, Huey struck him on the head
with an iron, causing almost instant death.
Alter much delay the trial for murder came
of, and the friends Of Huey left no stone
unturned 10 save him from the conse-
quences OF his angry act. The jury re-
turned verdict Of guilty Of murder in the
second degree, but the formality was
scarcely ended when a pardon, signed
by the Governor, was introduced, and
he left the court at once a free man.
This defeat Of justice caused as great
an excitement as has attended the release
Of Dukes. Dire threats were made, and
Huey was treated with scorn and derision.
A tombstone was erected over the grave Of
Zimmerman, with the inscription, "Killed
by blow" The morning after 1t had
been put in place an addition in pencil was
noticed, so that it read "Killed by blow
by W. Z. Huey." As often as the addition
was cleaned away it would appear just the
same the next day, though the person, re-
sponsible has never been discovered.
Meantime without business, without &C.
quaintances, branded by public opinion,
especially for the ready.made pardon, Huey
was soon forced to leave his home and EN-.
bark in lifes cares elsewhere. He is be.
lieved to he dead now, but his name Is
probably still to be seen on the grayestone
OF his victim.

A NEW SCHEME.
A Novel Combination OF the Southern
Iron Furnnces.

4 Novel Combination OF the Southern
Iron Furnaces.
ST. LOUIS, No.. March 16.-The Age Of
Steel tomorrow will publish the following,
which, it states, refers to matter entirely
new to the iron trade OF the North. During
the past two weeks a combination has been
formed in the South, composed Of all the
iron furnaces in the States OF Tennessee,
Alabama and Georgia, with the exception
OF the 0akdale, Tennessee, furnace, TO be
known as the Southern Coke Assertion.
The object OF the association is to OBJ
tain and maintain uniform scale ofprices,
and observation-disclosures competition and
trickery Of all kinds. A uniform scale Of
prices has been agreed upon and agents are
requested to strictly abide thereby, allowing
concessions TO no one, no matter how large
his order for iron may be. 1t places all
brands Of iron on the same platform, so
that the furnace making an iron OF low
standard will get the same price
as for the high stan dard; that is
they sell any. The advantages will be
seen to be on the side Of the maker Of
better brands, while the other man will
have to work hard to make sales at all.
The scale agreed upon is not above the
prices which have been ruling lately, ex.
cept on few grades, and they are all on Il
basis Of fixed price at the furnace, add.
ing Transportation.

A rHEarRE PANIC.
A Creaking Noise Causes Consideration
in the Audience.

New YORK, March l6.-At the Cosmo.
politan Theatre, tonight, towards the close
OF the minstrel performance, n significant
creaking sound was heard and suddenly
one OF the five inch iron columns OF the
first balcony crushed through the floor,
throwing one thousand people, crowding il,
and the audience below into n panic.
Women screamed and men in terror turE-
ed to the doors. A fearful crush followed,
all struggling for the exits. Several wo-
men were crushed before the manager
could be heard, and some degree OF quiet.
ness obtained. 1t was found the balcony
had settled fully twelve inches, the weak
est column sinking through the floor
on which 1t rested. Many people had left
the place but returned, and performance
proceeded. Suddenly, however, the
occupants Of the upper balcony began
to boot and hiss. This drove the
now thoroughly frightened people be
low into another panic. Fortunately
Police Commissioners Mason and French
and Captain Killalea were present and
succeeded in calming the people and the
performance came to an end, Many ladies
lost clothing and pocket books.

that the thief entered the house, choro-

daughter and then cut of the hair with a
knife or razor. There are no clues to the
perpetrator. The hair when brsided was
nearly three feet long.

judge Davis Courtship. y.
WASHINGTON, March l6.-A good story
is told about the courtslip OF David Davis.
The Judge was extremely reticent about
his new matrimonial venture, and after it
was positively known that he was engaged
to Miss Burr, he dodged and evaded every
"feeler" that was thrown out by his numer-
GUS friends.
Last winter Miss Burr and Miss Green,
The daughter Of Represcntative.elect Green,
Of North Carolina, at whose residence the
wedding took place, visited Washington as
the guests of Mrs. Hoge, the wife OF the
Representative from West Virginia. Both
these ladies were anxious to visit the White
House and see the President, but the Judge
did not wish to escort Miss BUR-. He was
perfectly willing to show Miss Greea the
sights, and be addressed note to the
President, saying that he wished TO call
with lady at the Executive Mansion. The
President appointed time and the visit
was paid. r...
Miss Green is young and very hand.
some person, and the'President immcdi.
ately jumped 10 the conclusion that she
was Judge Davis intended bride. He
showed her every attention, escorted the
couple through the house and the conser.
vatOty, plucked n bunch OF flowers for the
lady, and talked until tue Judge became
impatient TO leave. When the couple re.
turned 10 the hotel tic old gentleman OBJ.
served to Miss Burr that Miss Green had
captivated the President. A few days
later the Justices Of the Supreme
Court dined with the President. Judge
Davis was a guest. When the cigars were
lighted, the President, with mock fortnality,
rendered his congratulations TO the Prcsi.
dent OF the Senate. The Judge protested
that there was no reason why he should
be congratulated. The President persisted
in his congratulations, and the Justices
demanded 10 know the mystery. The
President told OF The visit Of Judge. Davis
and Miss Green. The veteran jurist pooh.
poohed the idea OF marrying the lady, and
he squirmed under the pleasant congratu.
ations that were proiIered on every side.
"You may deny as much as you please,
Judge, but you don't dare to sign a quit
claim in my iavor,p bantcriDgiy remarked
the President. The Judge drew piece Of
paper and pencil from his pocket aud, in
careful legal form, drew up and signed n
REIMBURSEMENT oi all his right, title and
interest in Miss Green, provided the Presi.
dent proposed marriage to her within the
term Of one year. This he signed and de.
livered 10 the President in the presence OF
the Court.1 General Arthur has been re.
markably reticent regarding the affair since
the engagement Of Judge Davis to Miss
Burr was announced.
