TWO YEARS FOR COL. EASTMAN.
Penalty for Numbering Northern Man in
West Virginia.
ESPECIAL TO THE PREss.J

Norway, December 2l.-Advices were
received here last night to the effect that
Col. Robert W. Eastman of Davis, West
Virginia, had been convicted for killing
Frank E. Thompson formerly of this viii
lage and sentenced to two years close con-
tinement in Tucker county Jail. AS MIR.
Thompson was widely known i'll this vi
ctnity and the principle witness, Dell
Cole, was also an Oxford county man
he matter has aroused more than local
interest.
The trial which has been going on
about two weeks at the shire town of
Tucker county has proved one of the
most sensational in the criminal annals
of that state.
Eighteen prominent attorneys have
been arrayed on opposite sides and mul.
titude of witnesses examined.
Col. Eastman, the defendant, acquired
this title as one of Mosby' famous guer-
illas during the late rebellion. He is de-
scribed as dead shot with rifle and reyol-
yer, and a man of violent passions. Col
Eastman WAS one of the original settlers
of the now wealthy town of Davis and
from this circumstance asserted his right
to largely control local affairs, particu-
larly politics.
When Frank E. Thompson went there
from this village and with characteristic
Yankee energy began to develop large
business enterprises that promised to
greatly change the town, rivalry sprang
up between the two men. This rivalry
gradually developed into feud in bust
ness and politics, during which several
sensational episodes occurred. AT one
time a valuable dam owned by Mr.
Thompson was blown up by dynamite,
and the same powerful explosive is said
to have been used on other occasions.
Last spring during a trial which aroused
unusual local interest and on which the
two men took opposite sides, they met on
a crowded passenger car. After brief
but violent quarrel Col. Eastman and Mr..
Thompson drew their revolvers and
began to shoot at each other. Mr..
Thompson was wounded SO badly that
he died in few days. Col. Eastman
was 0isO WOuAuCu. hobItsuSS " say aoAo
Of the passengers were hit.
When Col. Eastman had recovered he
was arrested on the charge of murder. 1t
was thought here that he could not be con-
yicted on account of political influence,
his victim being Northern man.
Col. Eastman asserted he only acted in
self defense and the trial hinged on which
man began the fatal quarrel and fired
the first shot. Dell Cole, former resi-
dent Of this village WAS one of the most
important witnesses. He sat on the mex
seat behind Mr.. Thompson and was con-
sequently in q position to clearly see the
thrilling tragedy.
He testified that Col Eastman fired
twice, once from his pocket before Mr.
Thompson fired at all. The most severe
crossee1amination failed to impair his
damaging testimony
The jury at first stood six for verdict
of murder in the first degree and six for
aequittal, but finally compromised on
verdict Of Involuntary manslaughter.
Frank E. Thompson was 35 years old.
He was manager OF the Black Water
Boom ana Lumber company. IN few
years he has accumulated s300,0oO in
West V irginia.
