shooting and was at once taken to that

Both of Wide Reputation.
Both the murdered man and the ed
itor have long been leaders in southern
Illinois politics, and their regulations
have extended beyond the borders of
the state. Mayor Richards was one of
tie most popular men in the county, be-
ing widely known for his philanthropic
deeds. He was elected mayor last
spring on the republican ticket, receiv-
ing the Endorsement of the regular
democratic convention. He lived in a
handsome residence, and on his estate
had built an electric light and water
works plant, with which he supplied the
city with light and water free of charge.
He was 66 years of age and bachelor.
Capt. Hedley has national reputation.
He was an intimate friend of the late
Walter Q. Gresham, and has of late
been engaged by the relatives of the
former secretary of state in writing
book of personal memoirs. He served
all through the war of the rebellion
with Gen. Gresham.
Speculation as to the Cause.
One report has it that a woman
figures in the case. Richards, though
| 6S years old. wished, it is said, to marry
his stenogra pher, Ella Brown Richards.
1t is alleged he accused Hedley of pre-
| venting the marriage, and ASA ulted He'd
| ley three times within six months.
| When another assault was attempted
Saturday Hedley was armed. Another
statement is that Richards upbraided
| Hedley on Saturday for not speaking
to him when they met. Hedley's reply
who struck him, bringing on the fatal
encounter.
Hedley's Conscience Clear.

statement to the press since the pre-
liminary examination. He now author
ICES the following:

Out on BAIL.
After hearing the evidence in the
case Justice Cloud held that the case
was a bailable one and fixed the bond
at $4,000, which was Immediately: given.
The case will not come up before the
September term of court. Hedley said
after leaving the courtroom: 1T was
the ending of a continued provocation
and case of self-defense. The state will
charge murder, and the defense will
plead excusable homicide"
