COL. KINGS TRIAL.
e Testifies, Claiming That Mrs. Pillow
Conspired Against Him.

MEMPHIS. Tenn, June 15.-The trial
of II. Clay King was resumed in the
Criminal Court this morning. Upon
taking the stand Col. King said he had
received money from Mrs. Pillow in
liquidation of indebtedness to him. On
one occasion be received the sum OF
$3.50 from her in part payment OF the
thousands of dollars advanced to her.
Witness never had a final settle
ment with Mrs. Pillow, and she
is still indebted ID him for a
large sum. Witness believed that Mrs.
Pillow and her Sou-in-law, Mr.. Shields,
had entered into a conspiracy to de-
fraud him out Of his estate, TO blacken
his character and to take his life. Wit
ness thought il necessary TO prepare
himself and be ready for any emer-
gency. Witness went across the street
from the Memphis and Charleston
ticket Office 10 get his shoes blackened.
Witness was in the habit of going to
Lees store TO buy cigars. Witness was
questioned as to threats made against
the author, whOmSOever he might have
been, of a plain article that appeared in
the Memphis AUulGnche that reflected
on him.
Witness denied that he sent message
TO T. Chambers, an associate counsel III
the King-Pillow suit, TO the effect that
he would kill him if he did not withdraw
certain charges made in the croSS-bill
filed in the case. After asking witness
few more questions of minor import
ance. the State closed the croSS-eXami-
nation. In redirect examination
it was brought out that the OBJ
iect of the cross bill filed by Mrs. Pill
low, both in Arkansas and Tennessee,
was 10 gain possession of the property
decided and willed TO her. Witness had
nothing 10 do with the filing of the di-
vorce bill against his wife. Mrs. Pillow
did it herself. d. II. POSton never dis
claimed responsibility for the charge
made in the cross bill against witness
and his wife.
Witness denied that there was any
thing in the King-Pillow litigation that
warranted the Scandalous charges com
plained of in the cross bill. Witness re-
membered with absolute certainty what
.-anspired between himself and Mr..
/ Poston q the time OF the shooting. He
had 10 idea OF meeting d. II. Poston in
/ front Of Lees cigar store. Witness is
not an expert shot.
After some little discussion among the
attorneys as to points of law involved,
and after few more questions to wit
ness of minor Importance, his eXamlna-
finn WAS concluded.

ing of the association of depositorS Of
the wrecked Spring Garden National
bank tonight, the following was adopt
ed:
ReSolUed, That it is the sense OF this

cover our lost money, as the govern
ment is mainly responsible for our loss
through the incapacity OF its sworn

Action will probably be taken by the

Another resolution was adopted in

dent Harrison and ask him TO inquire
into the conduct of United States Dis
trict Attorney Read with regard to the
arrest of officials of the Spring Garden
Bank. IL is claimed that at the
time of the arrest Of PreSi-
dent Kennedy and Cashier Kennedy,
warrants were also obtained for
Directors EphraIm Young and Nelson f.
Evans, who were shown to be illegal
borrowers from the bank. These war
rants, the resolution sets forth, are still

tion wants 10 know why they have not
been served.

Tobacco Manufacturers Losing Trade.

CHICAGO, June 15.-Manufacturers OF
plug and finished tobacco are COM
planning of a peculiar result of the aboli-
tion of the tobacco. They declare that
since the passage Of the law the big
jobbers in raw leaf tobocco have sent
agents through the country to canvass
the grocery stores to sell the raw tobac-
co 10 consumers, who would rather
have the natural article than the manu-
featured. GrocerS generally have fallen
in with the plan and are now said to be
buying the leaf tobacco from the job
bers and have discontinued buying from
manufacturers. An agent Of the big
jobbing houses in indianapolis called at
the Central Avenue Office to-day and
said his sales among the grocers were
enormous and that the manufacturers
were losing trade everywhere.

of Basic and it's neighborhood have
visited the broken bridge.

visited the broken bridge.
Shortly after the first horror OF the
crashing of the engines and cars
through the bridge and into the swiftly
running stream had died away, the sur
which must have rivaled in horror, the
most heartrending features of the
Johnstown disaster in the United States.
Beneath the bridge, or what remained
of it, was hideous mass OF broken
car wood, car wheels, engines, railroad
car upholstery, seats, axles, broken
glasses, twisted tin work, in
termixed with still quiverng
heads bespattered with blood
and brains protruding, arms, legs and
bloody garments of all descriptions, hats
and bonnets, umbrellas and parasols,
hands and feet, while floating down the
stream were numbers of dead bodies and
family struggling men, women and chill
dren, a few now and then uttering cries
of terror, or emitting those fearful
gurgling suffocating gasps, peculiar to
the drowning. After the first moment
of paralyzation which followed the rev.
eation Of this horror. the survivors did
their utmost to rescue those whose lives
were in danger.
BAsLE, June 15.-The details of the
Moenchstein disaster proves that the
bridge broke down under the sheer
weight of the locomotives. The first
engine had passed over the abut-
ments safely, but was dragged back
by the second engine, when the
whole fabric collapsed, the engines
and train topping into the river. The
first engine went into the river, chin
ney first, and turned over on its side.
The second fell vertically, and remains
standing upright in the stream. Five
carriages were precipitated into the
water, and were reduced to a mass OF
wreckage. At the point where the acci-
dent occurred the river is only four feet
deep. All who were killed, from 20 to
so were crushed to death.
The saved in the cars remaining on
the line Immediately began the work to
rescue the sufferers, who were filling
the air with shrieks and groans. AS
soon as possible, the fire brigade of
Basle, and a detachment of artillery
arrived and the search for the
dead was begun. Seventeen bodies
lying close together were first taken up
and laid in an adjacent orchard. The
wounded who were unable to move were
placed in ambulances and attended by
doctors, were sent to Basle.
From Basle special relief trains were
speedily sent to the scene OF the dis
aster. Most OF the bodies recovered
were dreadfully mutilated. A dead
mother was found holding in her arms
her lfeless body while another child
lay across her body. Several other
family groups were seen joined by a
common fate.
Relatives of the victims have been
crowding the scene o. the disaster to-
day trying to identify the dead. Forty
bodies, which lay in a freight shed
were recognized, mostly as those OF
inhabitants OF Basle.
An exact estimate Of the number OF
killed is still impossible. There are
several persons missing, and many in
hospitals are sinking, who will prob
ably have to be added to the ultimate
total Of the dead.
