The killing Of Isom occurred in the public
road not far from his home. and the cir
cumstances attending it seem to throw
doubt on the conspiracy theory. Mr. Isom
was here Thursday. and while in town
had some words with Wagerly Pike, a
negro, living in his neighborhood. APP
parently everything was smoothed over
when he left for home. After arriving
there he started with Henry Tfmman, his
brother-in-law, for Captain Timman's
home, about half a mic f-om Isom's.
They met four negroes. two on horseback
and two in wagons. Pike and West Mccall
were on horseback; the two Herring boys
were in the wagon. They came near rid
ing over Isom, who demonstrated. He said:
Look out; don't run over me- and
stepped out of the way. Just then Pike
drew a pistol and, without a word, fired,
the bullet piercing Isom's heart Pike and
Mccall fired three shots each at the pros
trate body of Isom, and they broke for
their horses. Pike made his escape, but
Mccall and the Herrings were arrested and
are in JAIL In this present excitement
there is grave danger of these three being
lynched.

DESERVING THE DIOCESE.
Priests Who Fought Bishop BOnacum
Seeking New Charges.

OMAHA, Neb., Dec. 23.-The priests of
the Lincoln diocese who have been fighting
Bishop Bonacum for two years have sur
rendered. They admit that the Bishop has
won, and If he has not been sustained at
Rome the diplomacy of Mgr. Satolli has left
them no chance but to seek employment
elsewhere. Father English, the tenth priest
to quit the Bonacum diocese, came to
Omaha yesterday and now has charge of
a parish in this city. The trouble between
Bonacum and his priests began two years
ago over the refusal of Father Corbett, OF
Palmyra, to submit to some ruling of the
Bishops which he thought was tyrannical.
The Bishop was finally tried for libel,
charges having been preferred by Corbett
that the Bishop had injured him in some
of his publications to Corbett's congrega-
ton. The Bishop was acquitted. Satolli
visited Lincoln for the purpose of settling
the trouble but was unable to do so. The
matter was appealed to Rome, but if ever
passed on the verdict was never made
public. The mortal offense of Father Eng
lish was his testimony against the Bishop
in the Corbett case in Nebraska last May.
When the question OF authorities on canon
law was under consideration the Bishop
and his supporters testified that the work
of Father Smith, of Paterson. n. j., was
not regarded as an authority on canon
law. Father English contradicted this tes-
timony. Within sixty days after giving his
testimony Father English received orders
TO vacate the Hastings mission and report
at David City. On Sept II an appeal was
taken TO Satolli, who assured James NJ.
English, brother of the priest, that the
trial would be granted, .'but not now
said the delegate. Not now. Tell him
that He will understand" He never had
a trial. The priests announced to-day that
they had surrendered and would seek
charges in other dioceses.

HORSELESS CARRIAGE
STREET VEHICLE PROPELLED BY
THE USE OF ELECTRICITY.
Speed Of Eleven Miles ATTAINED ON n
Kansas City Asphalt Pavement
How 1t Is Operated.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-. Dec pa horseless
carriage went ssximming along the smooth
asphalt of Fourteenth street, in the vicinity
of Cherry street to-day, filling mother
Shipton's prophecy that carriages without
horses shall rum" and. terrifying negroes
who saw sparks and apparently sulphurous
flame issuing from under it. The vehicle was
an electric carriage, of Kansas city inven-
ton and manufacture and is the only one
of the kind in the United States. although
dssimilar ones are used, some in the old
world. The machine worked perfectly. A
speed of eleven miles an hour wa obtained.
The carriage is about the size of an or
dinary vehicle. One seat, holding three per-
sons. faces the front and another one that
will accommodate a similar number faces
the rear. A storage battery composed Of
five series of five cells each furnishes
current Of 671k ohms and rolls are arranged
in three tiers beneath the seats. The
wheels are of wood with India rubber
cushions on the tires. The hind wheels.
which are three feet two inches in diameter,
have in the inner side cast iron fiange

Power from the battery is communicated to
the fiange by raw hide friction pulley

by means of an appliance on which he
places his feet-T The steering is done by
a toothed segment and pinion attached 10

steering post manipulated by the driver
with his hands. The carriage can make
quick, short turns. The storage batteries
will run the machine about seven or eight
thousand pounds and is quicker and lighter
than the European coaches.

Is Superior to the Baltimore Plan.

BLOOMINGTON, ILL.,, Dec. 23.-Alvip b.
Hoblit cashier of the National State Bank.
of this city, and member of the executive
committee OF the Illinois State Bankers
Association, has formulated currency
scheme which he believes is superior TO
the Baltimore plan, and which has received
the Endorsement OF a number of financiers
in the Illinois State Bankers Association.
His plan is as follows:
First-Begin funding the greenback and
treasury notes by issuing $3.50 000,0O0 worth
OF 2is per cent bonds for banking purposes.
Allow banks to issue currency 10 the par
value of these bonds. Discontinue tax on
the.' circulation.
Se ond-Allow banks with unimpaired
capital TO issue an additional 20 per cent. OF
circulation secured by their assets. On
this added currency levy a tax of l per
cent. per annum for the average time IL is
In circulation.
Third-This 20 per cent. of circulation in
capital Will give the necessary elasticity
10 our currency system needed in times
of stringency of the money market.
Fourth-With the proceeds OF the sale
OF bonds retire a like amount of greenbacks
and treasury notes which are constant
menace to the credit OF the goyernmenta
