A NARROW ESCAPE.
Policeman Terry Will Not Have to
Stand Trial for Murder.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-An inquest was
held tonight over the body Of Willis Wash
ington, who died last week, supposedly from
a pistol shot fired nearly a year ago by
policeman Charles B. Terry, formerly of
Mount Vernon, Ind. An autopsy, however,
failed to reveal the fact that the pistol shot
was the cause of the death, and the opin-
ion was given by the physician that death
was caused by oedema of the lungs. This
relieves Terry from the danger of trial
for murder or manslaughter, and he has
now only his original sentence of three

but to give him quiet room where hA
