SCOTT JACKSON'S TRIAL
Strong Testimony Is introduced by the
Prosecution
Little BY Little the Grim Details OF the
Heartless rlurder Are Coming
to the Light

NEWPORT. KY, April 25.-Interest in
the trial of Scott jackson does not abate
in the least. Twenty witnesses were ex-
amined today. Private Weaver of Fort
Thomas testified concerning human hair
he found in a clot of blood on the ground
where the body was found. Mrs. Bryan
compared lock of PEARLS hair, cut
from her head year ago, with the hair
mentioned by Weaver, and found the
two alike. Pinckard testified that on
January 31st a little after noon, he saw
Walling and a woman come out of At
lantic Garden into College street. Jack
son Joined them. The woman seemed
hesitating. Jackson was talking, ges-
ticulating earnestly. Mrs. Plymouth
Weeks of Cincinnati, a spiritualist med
ium, testified that in the last week of
January, Pearl Bryan and Jackson came
to her place. Pearl told her who she
was, also her condition. WitRess ad-
vised her to go home.
Probably the most important testi-
mony of the day was that of Pat ]. Kin
ney, policeman at the Central Union
depot, from which trains leave for In
dianapolis. Kinney's business is to an
nounce trains. He said that on Janu-
ary 81, AlonZo Walling come to the sit
ting room over which he has charge
at the Central Union depot, about
o'clock in the afternoon and remained
there until about 4:10. The witness
knows Walling perfectly. There was
lady whom Walling brought there and
who seemed in deep distress. Witness
noticed them particularly because he
expected them to take the train and was
surprised that they did not do so, though
many trains left the depot during those
two hours. The woman had held her
handkerchief in her right hand all the
time and was shedding tears. Walling
seemed to be talking to her in an earn

scription of the girl fits PearlBryan per-
fectly. He was shown a photograph Of
Pearl Bryan and identified it positively
as that of the girl he saw with Walling
In the depot He said a train left at
3 o'clock in the morning for Indiana
polls.
The theory is that Pearl Bryan went
to the depot to take the train to In
dianapolis and that Walling persuaded
her not to go. They left the depot to-
gether.
The time for the walling trial was
changed from May 5 to May 12. This
indicates that the present trial will be
protracted.

A MINING HORROR
A Time Owners Greed Causes q FriphtfuI

Ell PASO, Texas. April 25.-A special
dispatch to the Times tonight from
Chihuahua, Mexico, says the most ter
rible mining disaster that has ever oc-
Cured in Northern Mexico happened

very rich silver mine and has been
worked for the last hundred years. The

by great pillars of ore, and few weeks
ago P. B. Prieto, the owner, began
taking out those supports. Prieto
urged the miners, who are Mexicans. to
continue at work in spite of protests.
it is said, and the terrible accident re-
suited. Eighty-five men were at work
when the cave-in occurred; of these l8
escaped and 81 were buried. Thirty
seven have been taken out, seven OF
whom are dead and 30 seriously crushed
and many will not live. There is very
little chance of recovering alive the 80
men yet under the earth.
The governor left here today for the
scene.
