HE TOUCHED ALIVE WIRE
CHARLES BRIGHT FALLS DEAD FROM
AN ELECTRIC-LIGHT POLE.
A Fatality at Meridian and New Tven-
ty-First Streets--A Plaster Carrier
Killed at Park Theater.

Charles Bright a lineman. twenty-seven
years old, employed by the Indian
apolis Light and Power Company, was
killed yesterday afternoon, while at work
stringing a wire at the corner of Me-
ridian and new Twenty-irst streets. There
was no one working directly with him at
the time and the first that was known of
the accident was when he was seen to fall
from the pole on which he was working
When other linemen reached him he was
dead. His body was taken to Tutewilers
morgue and was examined by Coroner
Brayton and Deputy Richardson. Il was
evident that the electric shock caused his
death. His right hand was burned almost
to a crisp and the muscles of the left hip
were burned showing that the circuit had
passed out there. The fall to the ground
did not break any bones or cause any in
jury which would have produced death.
The theory of the other linemen is that
a short circuit was produced by the line
with which Bright was working coming
in contact with a live wire Bright proba-
of his body and in handling the one he
was stringing ne caused the circuit which
electrocuted him.
Bright was an unmarried man. He had
been boarding recently at 215 new North
East street. His parents live on Edwards
street in West Indianapolis. He mad been
in the employ of the indianapolis Light
regarded as one of the best linemen work
ing for the COMPANY.

HEARING FOR RAILROADS
STATE TAX BOARD WILL DO BUS
MESS ON A SCHEDULE OF DATES.
Roads Must Appear on Time or Not at
AII-OnIy One Plea Submit
ted Yesterday.

The State Tax Board began it's annual
session. covering a period of forty days,
yesterday morning. The first twenty days
will be given up to railroad hearings and
later another ten days will be devoted to
review OF the railroad assessments and APP
peals. The board organized by choosing
Governor Mount chairman and Deputy
Auditor Hart secretary. c. A. Reeser, of
Lafayette, was appointed stenographer
The board made a rule concerning rail-
road hearings to the effect that when the
schedule of hearings asked by the roads is
made up the pleas of the roads will be
heard upon the days set or not at all. Here
tofore, in the effort to accommodate it's
hearings to the convenience of the railroad
people desiring to be heard, the board has
been at great trouble. This year each road
asking to be heard will have a time set for
hearing and if it is not represented at that
time it's day in court will be over.
There was but one plea in yesterday,
that of the Chicago & West Michigan,
which runs through but few miles of In
diana territory. The plea for lower as
sessment was presented in writing by Ed
ward II. Hawkins who is absent in Ia
coma. The Lake Shore will be heard on
Thursday and the Big Four will be repre-
scented by President ingalls, on the follow
ing Thursday. The schedule of hearings has
not yet peen made out by Mr.. Hart but it
Is likely that nearly every road running
through Indiana will ask for a hearing and
plead for a reduction of it's assessment
Railroad property forms little less than
one-siXth of all the taxable property of the
State and the assessment is made originally
and finally by this board. The railroads
are assessed upon a mileage basis, which is
reached by dividing the market values of
their total securities by the number of miles
of the road. Thus the assessment covers
all the rolling stock, stations. terminal
Three roads the Lake Shore. the Michigan
Central and the Fort Wayne, are taxed
as high as $4,000 mile. In the second
class, ranging in the neighborhood of $780,
900 a mile, come most of the other large
systems running through the State. The
managers point to a large reduction in
earnings as a just cause for reduction in
taxation.

The Feeling in Rush County.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
RUSHVILLE, Ind, July 12.-The an
nouncement of the proposed pardon of
William Kennedy has met with great favor
in this county, where he was sentenced.
Notwithstanding the reports that remon-
STRANGE against it was to go to the Gov
ernor from here. Kennedy, it is conceded,
has suffered enough, and an overwhelming
majority of the people favor his pardon.
AS already stated in the Journal when
Kennedy was tried here public sentiment
against murderers was strong. Jacob and
Elsie Block had received only light SEN
fences for killing Eli Frank. and when
Kennedy came to trial here he had few if
him fair hearing, and the Cincinnati pa
pers denounced him as a bad crook" The
evidence presented against Kennedy was
purely circumstantial, and was lame in I'M
portant points. The jury was composed OF
William NJ. Summers, Jesse Kiplinger,
Winship and William NJ. Blackldge, of
Rushville township; Josiah p. Winslow and
William Bundy, of Ripley: William Sweet
man and Louis j. NewhOuse, of Jackson;
William Williams, of Noble; Samuel Grif-
fifth, of Orange. William Summers, the fore
of the pardon of Kennedy is dead as are
Judge Berkshire of Vernon, who tried the
case, and Senator Jesse Spann, who repre-
scented the prisoner Kennedy was conf
dent of his acquittal until the last, and even
those who clamored the loudest for a YER
~ of the sentence when it became known.
Another thing that was against Kennedy
at his trial was the action of Major Black
burn, the noted Cincinnati criminal lawyer.

KENNEDY'S PARDON
VIII BE i'm the Nature of "A Parole,
and Comes To-Day.

Governor Mount returned from his farm
yesterday and was in attendance upon the
Tax Board all morning. At noon he found
time to read over the letters Of congratula-
ton and protest upon the parole of Will
liam Kennedy, and then sent message to
have Kennedy brought here to-day. He
therefore left the prison walls last night
and he will not return. II shall parole
Kennedy as soon as he arrives here said
the Governor decisively yesterday after
noon in reply to the question OF Journal
reporter and he said it in a way to indicate
that his mind is thoroughly made up.
Though there is the best of reason to
believe that Kennedy was innocent of the
crime for which he has served the best
part of his life, it is not upon this ground
that the Governor reached his determina-
ton to parole him. He is a firm believer
in the doctrine set forth in the Cons tuition
of Indiana that justice should be reforma-
tory not Vindictive, and he has been con-
WINGED that even if Kennedy did commit
the crime, he is reformed and ready to be-
come useful citizen. His determination
was FASTENED by the fact that The prisoner
has been seized with consumption. Ken
nedy left Michigan City last evening and
will arrive here early this morning. A place
has been offered him upon one IF the rail-
roads centering in this city and the Gov
ernor has had two other offers of places
for him.

FALL BROKE HIS NECK.
Michael Greeley, a Plaster Carrier,
Killed at the Park Theater.

Killed at the Park Theater.
Michael Greeley, a plaster carrier, about
fifty years old, was killed at 3:45 o'clock
yesterday afternoon at the new Park Thea
ter building. He was engaged in helping
the plasterers who were at work on the
upper portion of the walls over the stage.
His duties were similar to those of a bod
carrier. He carried plaster in sacks to the
workmen above mounting to the place
where they were at work by climbing from
scaffod to scaffold to a height of about
hfty-five feet.
He had just delivered a sack of plaster
to John Madfon, a plasterer calling out:
Here's your plaster, john" and then he
jumped from the top scaffold to the next
lower one. The plank which MADE the
floor OF the scaffold to which he jumped
broke and he fell He struck the joists of
the first floor upon which the flooring IS
to be laid. He was dead When4 his fellow
employees reached him, although there was
but one slight wound visible and that was
a scratch on the forehead. An examination
showed that he had broken his neck. The
body was taken in charge by Tutewiler,
funeral director.
John Madden and other vorkmen who
were employed with Greeley say that they
had cautioned him about jumping from
scaffold to scaffold The planks which
formed the floor of the several scaffolds
were of inch material, amply strong for
the purpose for which they were intended,
but not strong enough to Withstand the
shock of large man dropping six feet upon
them. Joseph Ernst, the contractor for
whom Greeley worked, said he had also
cautioned Greeley about his recklessness,
but Greeley seemed to pride himself on his
nimbleness and paid no attention to the
warnings he received.

pain. Wheelman had been out seeing the
