Since the present ballot law went into
effect, election boards in this county, as
elsewhere, have been in doubt as TO what
constituted a marked ballot and how far
they should go in rejecting those which
bore marks accidental or chance. Judge
Depue last week rendered decision in an
election contest which virtually holds that
the law is unconstitutional IN 80 far as its
requirements are unreasonable. That a
printer error or a flaw ON the paper could
not disqnallfy the voter, and that in order
to reject ballot all marks must be of such
nature as TO show that there was knowl-
edge or intent on the part of the voter.

MURDER OF CHRISTENSEN.
South Bend Policeman Was Killed by
an Old Detective.

SOUTH BEND, Ind, May 12.-Patrolman
Oscar w. Christensen, of the South Bend
police department, was shot and instantly
killed shortly after 10 o'clock last night.
Detective James Millea, of Chicago, for
many years an employee of the Lake Shore
& Michigan Southern Railroad as a de-
~tective, is locked up here on the strength
of a statement of another detective, Jack
Carney. of Elkhart, Ind, who says Millea
did the shooting. 1t was at first generally
opposed that tramps killed the officer, as
the latter was on watch for hoboes who
had broke open Lake Shore q Michigan
Southern freight cars at Elkhart. Two
tramps eft a train at the Michigan-street
crossing. and one of them on seeing the
officer began running across the common
just north of the track. Christensen started
after him, and a fusillade of shots soon
began, one ball striking the patrolman in
the face, killing him instantly. The chief
of police had information pointing to either
fastened the crime on Millea. The latter
took it coolly. He is said to have killed
three men during the big railway strike in
Chicago. One hundred tramps had been
arrested on suspicion, and were driven out
of the city to-day.

LAWLESSNESS In KENTUCKY
Stringent Repressive Measures May
Be Enacted by the Legislature.

FRANKFORT. KY. May 12.-Turnpike
raiders, murders from ambush and lynch
ings in Kentucky, especially the defiant
continuation of the raiders. have driven
the Legislature to desperate means. The
Senate has defeated a bill passed by the
House ostensibly for stopping turnpike
railing, but which was palpably ineffec-
tive. The Senate unanimously passed a
substitute which is considered the most
vigorous law ever passed. 1t requires Jail
ers and other officers holding persons
threatened with mob violence to arm the
prisoner, that he may defend himself, ana
to protect the prisoner with the aid OF a
posse, at the peril of FORGETTING his own
office. 1t makes it mandatory upon the
county judge to furnish not less than two
nor more than ten armed guards, sum-
moned from among the citizens, who are
compelled, under heavy penalty, TO protect
for thirty days any tollgate or other public
or private property threatened by the raid
ers, and provides pay for guards and Sc
we're penalties for all offenders captured.
The Legislature is also aroused over the
unrefuted evidence of bad management dis
closed in the investigation of the two state
prisons. The friends of the Republican
warden and state officials claim they will
prove that the evidence is the result of 81
conspiracy entered into by convicts, aided
and abetted by outside contractors ugh
robbing the State. The Democratic inves-
tigators say they expect still further de-

phrey bills, extending the franchises of all
street railways in Illinois fifty years and
new franchises in the board Of commissions
ers instead of the aldermen Of the various
cities, were killed in the Legislature to-
day. The enacting clause of the first bill
was stricken out by a vote of 123 to 20.
Similar action was taken regarding the sec
ond bill by a viva voce vote. The Hum
phrey bills nave been subjected from the
start to a red hot fight by the civic reform
organizations and the newspapers, and the
defeat of the bills causes widespread re-
joicing.
