Jack Cunningham Will Retire from
Public Gaze For Awhile.

The notorious ~''eoon," Jack Gun
bingham who stabbed Mark Hutch
inson, the Windsor Hotel colored
porter, on Saturday night, May %,
at the Union Depot, was Tuesday
given trial by a jury and the fol-
lowing verdict rendered:
eve, the jury, find the defend
ant guilty, as charged, and assess
his punishment at two years in the
penitentiary.
"JNo. W. HOWELL,
Foreman"
The jury was composed of the
following named persons: Jno. W.
Howell, J. A. Harrison, John At
kins, J. w. Smith, J. n. Gross, B.
A. Thornberg, Thes. Armstrong, S.
S. Northern, S. L. Mexican, Chas.
Graham, G. w. Underwood, and
G. I. Hook.
Cunningham has been in Jail
since the affray, being unable to
give bond. For years he has been
"a source of much trouble to officers
of the law, and a fight among ne
groes without Jack being mixed up
in it was something rare. He is a
tough customer and has the repu-
tation of using the knife upon the
slightest provocation. The COM
munity is better by being rid of
Jack. This Is, we believe, his first
trip over the river.

The fact is that the letter was done from
Dudley's dictatiOn by typewriter probably
by young woman, and was only signed by
Dudley But as Dudley has practically ad-
mitted that it was his composition, and nu-
merous republicans in indianapolis, who are
familiar with his signature, have declared thai
the one at the bottom OF the letter is undoubt
eddy his il makes small difference who OPP
Grated the typewriter. However, if Dudley
will proceed with his libel suit against the New
York Times, this fact may come out, too. for
the benefit OF those who are curious TO know
the young woman's name supposing it was a
Young woman. Ii all rests with Dudley, so let
him proceed with his libel suit.

Determined to save Dudley.

No reason for refusing 70 confirm Judge
Claypoors appointment can possibly be given
that will not subject the republican majority 10
the suspicion of attempting 70 shield Dudley
from the clutches OF the Law. No rational
man doubts that the "bloczs of FIVE" letter
was written by Dudley, or that its motive was
the corruption OF voters He has virtually ad-
mitted the authorship OF the letter. Now that
a man has been appointed to succeed Mr.. Sell
lers whose connection with the tally-sheet
forgery cases is a proof that be will 90 his duty
in prosecuting other violators OF the election
law who may be indicted, if the senate refuses
10 confirm the appointment, no other inference
from the decision will be possible than that
the majority are determined that Dudley shall
not be punished, whether guilty or not guilty.
