BETRAYER KILL HIS ICTIM
Crime Of a Kentucky Man
LRnds Him In JRil.

LEXINGTON, KY, Dec. 2O.-one of the
most terrible assassinations ever known in
Kentucky was the murder of Anna Belle
Steinberger by her cousin, Booker Stein
berger, at her home in the southern part Of
Barren county, Wednesday night about III
o'clock. The shot was fired through a win
dow, tearing a large hole through the girls
head and scattering her brains over the
floor. Suspicion at once pointed to Booker
Steinberger and a deputy sheriff visited his
home, and finding evidence of his guilt,
placed him under arrest. He was lodged in
Jail at Glasgow. Excitement runs high and
ne will doubtless be lynched. In his pocket
was found a letter from Miss Anna Belle in
she charged him with having taken ad-
vantage of her. 1t requested him to marry
her to save her honor. The Steinberger fami-
lies are prominent and the affair has created
a tremendous sensation. Anna Belle was the
daughter of James Steinberger,
while Booker is the second son Of Colonel w.
3. Steinberger. The Jail is being strongly
guarded.

IsH JURY NOT HEARD FROM.
Impression Prevails TINT 1T VIII Re-
port Il Disagreement.

port Il Disagreement
The Ish jury has as yet failed to find a
verdict and has given no intlmation that 1t
Is anywhere near an agreement. All yesterday
morning a crowd was gathered in the corri-
doris of the court house, waiting for the
twelve men to report, meanwhile discussing
the probability of the verdict. When no
report had been received at noon this crowd
dispersed, but directly after dinner it
promptly reassembled and remained again in
waiting. There is no means Of telling how
the jury stands. A report was rife yesterday
morning that it stood six to six, equally d.
vided for acquittal and conviction. This
report could not, however, be verified and
SO far as the outside world is concerned, at
least, there is no knowing what the ultimate
fate of Ish will be. The jury was engaged
in conference all day in its room, and
from the raised voices which sometimes
escaped over the transom it was judged its
members were engaged in a hot discussion.
Thursday night the jury seemed to occupy
itself in having a good time. The long
attendance in the case had brought the
members to the conclusion that they would
make the night a vacation. They sat
around in their shirt sleeves, smoking and
apparently discussing everything but the
case. Once the melody Of a either was
heard, but this was quickly stopped by the
bailiffs in charge.
When the case was put in the hands OF
the jury Thursday Judge Keysor informed
the members that he would visit the court
house at 10 o'clock to receive a verdict IL
they agreed upon one. When he reached
there, however, the jury was engaged in a
loud discussion and he soon left. being con-
WINGED that there was no chance of an agree
ment that night. He returned yesterday
at $3.50 o'clock and remained In his court
until noon. He returned again after din
ner.
The general impression seems to prevail
that the jury will be unable to agree upon
a verdict. This is the opinion passed by
those who have been in constant attendance
at the trial. This opinion is considerably
strengthened by the fact that the jury has
failed to agree after being out since 3 80 O'Clock
Thursday afternoon. Judge Keysor himself
has minated that he would not be sur
prised at a disagreement.
1t was at first thought that a verdict OF
a~cquittal would be brought in. This opln-
ion. however, was changed to one In favor OF
a disagreement as soon as the instructions
Of Judge Keysor had been read. They seem
to have convinced a considerable number
Of people that by the Interpretation Of law
In them there would be some MEM
bers of the jury who would not acquit.

The Great Tobacco War.

Many of our readers know of the war ex-
listing between the manufacturers Of plug
chewing tobacco, but few, perhaps, are IA
miliar with the cause.
For years some manufacturers have been
making enormous profits by giving consum-
ers a small piece of plug for 10 cents. Re-
Gently a very large manufacturer, seeing
that the time had come for better things,
has placed a new brand called Battle AK on
the market. which gives the consumer a
very large piece of most excsllent quality for
the same price. This has raised a great
storm among those who are hurt by it. but
1t gives Joy to those who use the goods.
In Battle AK they get a greater quantity for
their money, whiie the quality 10 equal to
the finest of other brands. This has naturally
had the effect of greatly decreasing the bust
ness of those who have held to the old way,
and It. has materially curtailed their enor-
nous profits. On the other hand, Battle AK
now taxes the resources OF three large fac
tories, which, by running day and night,
are still unable to make the goods fast
enough to satisfy the enthusiastic demand.
The people want a good thing and the
most Of 1t that they can get for the price.
The manufacturers who do the best by them
will get their trade. Their rivals naturally
do not like 1t. They raise a mighty howl,
but the AK will cut them down.

President John 5. Williams of the Geor-

sperry. Sheffield and Mackan. have been
locking over properties on the water front.
with a view TO securing terminal facilities
there.
They took a trip from the Hermitage to
Fort jackson yesterday, in Alr. Henry
NcAlpin's launch. and carefully examined
all the available locations for wharf
fronts.
They went out to the Deptford planta-
ton just east of the Savannah, Florida
and Western wharves with Capt D. G..
Purse in the afternoon. and examined
that location. 1t is understood that they
have taken options on the Gordon wharf
property, and the Deptford plantation.
and Will make a report TO the northern dl-
rectors on their return. 1t is hardly prob
able that they VIII take long to decide as
to what they are going to do. They have
had offers of several properties, and as
they are DESTROYS of making their arrange
ments as soon as possible, it is likely that
they will take some action within a week
or two.
They expect to begin the preliminary
survey on the line between Savannah and
Mellrim within that time. one of the di-
rectors said last night that they had come
down here to build a road and were going
