Horn Confesses That He Killed
HarveIi.

RApFoRp, Va, April IA son of
Capt. j. T. Howe, who ft rmerly resided
in Decatur, Texas, but who is now a
resident of Radford, says that whilo in
Decatur, and after the conviction OF
Wayman Sutton for the murder OF Peter
Harvell in Wythe county, the man
Horn, who was tried for the murder but
acquitted, confessed to him and others
that he, Horn, had killed Harvell, de-
failing all the circumstances.
This statement has already occasloned
a considerable stir, so much that Blair
& Blair. attorneys for Sutton. have
written to MFR. Howe, asking that he
make affidavit of the fact. which will be
done at once, and forwarded to the at
torneys. Every effort is being made to
save Sutton's life, and this statement
will greatly tend to influence the Cover
nor in granting executive clemency and
probably end finally in the acquittal Of
the prisoner.

MOVE TIL r JAIL.

Now that there is hitch in the mat
ter of building the new Jail, would it
not be good idea for Council to again
consider the propriety of moving this
structure to some place on the out
skirts of the city? THE TIMES has
always maintained that the present
site was not proper one for jail. 1t
as in the resident section and in close
proximity to several churches.
No matter how we'll built and ORDERLY
the jail may be, there is strong preiu-
dice against having it on one of the
principal streets of the city.
1t is not too late yet for Council to
mako tho change, and THE TIMES is
sure that such move would meet with
the entire approval of the citizens.

about whom so much anxiety was felt,
has acquitted herself in most credit

oBJECTING TO THE APPOINTMENT

The architects of Virginia are con-
siderably stirred up over tho manner in
which VIM. M. Poindexter, of Washing
ton, d. c., was appointed architect for
the new State library building. They
claim that the commission, which had
the disposing of this matter, did not
ask any of them to submit plans and
that its action in appointing Mr.. Poin-
dexter was not proper.
Governor Mckinney, who is member
Of the commission, voted against tho SO
lection for this reason. Col. Mayre,
first auditor, wanted the commission to
advertise for plans and specifications to
be sent in under assumed names, with
no mark upon them by which the
identity of the competitors could be dis
closed to the commission, but that body
refused to do this.
Mr.. Poindexter is brother of Charles
iPoindexter, the State librarian.
