THOMPSON IS FREED.
A Jury Decides That George Corken's
Shooting Was an Accident.
THE VERDICT is QUICKLY FOUND,
ALI the Evidence Pointing to the Fact That
Murder Wasn't Meant.
JOY OF THE SISTER OF THE ACCUSED.

Edgar Thompson was placed on trial yes
terday before Judge Slagle for the killing
of George Corken, at the Pittsburg, Ft
Wayne and Chicago Railroad depot, in Al
legheny, on May 1. Thomas M. Marshall
and Harvey Henderson, Esqs., appeared
for the defense, while District Attorney
Johnston and Mr.. Martin represented the
Commonwealth. Thompson, looking some
what pale and worried, was surrounded by
his sister and other female relatives.
The first witness examined was w. R. G.
Andrews, who witnessed the shooting. He
testified that Thompson pulled the revolver
from his pocket at Corken's request, and
while handling the pistol 1t was accidentally
discharged.
STRUCK BY THE BULLET.
John DYER, who was one of the party, and
who was struck by the bullet, testified that
Thompson was handling the pistol when it
was accidentally discharged; the bullet
passed through Corken's leg and struck the
witness on the knee. The witness knew
that the shooting was accidental, and heard
Corken say so himself.
The Commonwealth rested at this point,
and Mr.. Marshall opened for the defense BY
claiming that they would prove the shoot
ing entirely accidental. A number of char
acter witnesses were first called, who testi-
fed to Thompson's good character, after
which the defendant was placed on the
stand.
Thompson's story was that he had met
George Corken in the morning, and they
had spent the day together. Corken had
helped him pack his trunk, after which the
defendant gave Corken gold-headed um-
brella as q keepsake. They then started
down town, and had several drinks.
AN ACCIDENTAL SHOT.
During the afternoon they went to the
depot; the defendant was going to his cat
tie ranch at Laird, Col. While in the
depot he pulled the revolver from his
pocket, for the purpose of transferring it to
his valise, and while handling the pistol it
was accidentally discharged. The defend
ant and Corken had been friends for some
years, and never had quarrel or dispute
of any kind.
D. b. Martin, Esq, made the argument
for the Commonwealth. He claimed that
while the shooting might have been acci-
dental, the defendant should be punished.
Thomas M. Marshall, ESQ.,, made the
appeal for the prisoner, and claimed that
under no circumstances could he be con-
victed.
Judge Slagle's charge was merely as to
the law covering the case. The jury was
only out half an hour, and returned with a
verdict of not guilty. Thompson was con-
graduated by his many friends present, and
kissed by his sister, whom he accompanied
home

Himself Through the Head.
At o'clock yesterday morning. N. G.
Won Bonnhorst, Secretary and Treasurer of
the Peoples Savings Bank. was found dead
on the porch of his mothers residence, back
of Ingram station on the Panhandle road.
For sometime past, Mr.. Won Bonnhorst had
been suffering with hay fever, and on this
account slept on the back porch. He was
delicate and had been troubled with with a
complication of complaints. This deranged
his mind and while laboring In a state of
melancholy, it is supposed, he shot himself.
Mr.. Won Bonnhorst was about IS years of
age and single. He was a brother of George
Won Bonnhorst, who is the Republican can
didste for County Recorder, and William
Won Bonnhorst, cashier of the Marine Bank.
He was the son of the late Sidney F. Won
Bonnhorst, who was appointed postmaster
by President Lincoln and removed by An
drew johnson. Beyond the fact of his ILL
ness, no reason can be assigned for the act.
The bank where he was employed elected
new Board of Directors and they were to
take hold to-day. 1t was said he feared the
new board would put another man in his
place. If he had any idea that such was the
case his fears were groundless, as the new
directors had no such intention. They had
every confidence in him and in his ability.
