q dull thud that was sickenlng the poor
fellows body shot into space. and With
not q witch hung under the scaGoId,
swinging gently from the violence Of
the drop.
DR.. Steele, Of Moundsville, the prison
phyaician, and other medical men we're
stationed under the scahold. Dr. Steele
held his hand to the fellows pulse and
heart, and IN eleven minutes It was an
nounced that life was entirely extinct.
Walker never knew more OF agony than
comes In any form Of really instahta-
neuus death. and from the execution
er's point Of view the hanging was a
pronounced success.
The black cap slipped mp at the back
Of the dead mans head, but fortunately
It was not entirely ttnfastened and thus
the spectators escaped witnessing a
most revolving scene.
The body was cut down later and will
be buried In the prison graveyard,
Walker having no friends to claim his
remains.

The feature OF yesterday mornings
police court was the slot machine
cases, the result Of the raid by the pO-
lice the previous night. There were
1O7 cases in all, but Attorney J. 3.
Handlan, in the case OF Fred Gold
strohm, took an appeal. The fine in
each case was SO and costs, but Cold
strohm's was raised by Mayor Sweeney
to allow the appeal. The total revenue
derived was Si.sss 80 for the lOs cases.
Rev. DR.. sooy, Rev Samuel schwarm
and Rev. ]. H. LIttell. the leaders In
the ministers movement. were inter-
ested spectators. But the session was
comparatively tame, only two Of the
machine proprletors appearing or the
scene. Every machine in the city was
raided, but assumed names governed
in the cases Of prominent hostelries.
Mayor Sweeney stated afterwards
that the haul was in line with orthodox
municipal tactics In regulating kindred
evils, and the revenue SO derived was
in line with what he had discussed in
the reply to the ministers few days
ago.
In other circles It was stated that
the raid was the result OF rumOred sim
liar action about to be taken by the
ministers before squire, in which
case the fines would not have fallen
into the ctty's Golfers. Later In the day
an interested minister denied the as
sertlon that the church federation
would swear out warrants daily against
the machines.
The Democratic organs yelled at
tack on Mayor Sweeney in this connec-
tlon yesterday was commented on by
the Democrats opposed to the anti
uuated section OF the party which is
trying TO down the mayor in the inter-
ests OF a gentleman interested in the
Register who aspires to the mayors
shoes. The party promises to have
serious split thereby. but Mayor sween-
ey's friends seem to be in the majority.
AS stated In the ministers statement.
printed elsewhere, four OF them con-
ferred last night with CHIEF ClemanS,
with a view Of getting him to make daily
raids, IL necessary on the machines.
The chief asented to this request, pro-
yided the ministers submitted the dfii-
dayits and witnesses they claimed to
possess. This proposition did not meet
with favor, and Rev. Mr.. Bigger, with
considerable show Of excitement.
threatened to exert himself 10 defeat
Captain Clemans at the next election.
The chief poIntedly replied that he
didn't care to indulge in personalities

A MAN HUNT

With Bloodhounds Near the State
Peuitenttary Yesterday Afternoon.
The Dogs freed Their Man in Ten
Minutes Over Two Mile Course.
Miks Mckinney. of Wheeling. engl-
neer at the state penitentiary, Mounds
Vile, IS dIrector-in-chtef Of the blood
hound department Of the big penal in
stitutIon, and he takes pardonable
pride In the quintette of highly bred
man hunters.
Yesterday afternoon several Wheel
ing visitors at the pen" and a number
of Moundsville people enjoyed test Of
the capacity Of two OF the hounds for
running down a prisoner. A colored
convict was given about two hours
start. He circIed out into the open
country back Of and below the penlten-
tiary, and then through a number Of
fields to an apple tree near the penlten-
ttary, a distance Of more than two
miles. The dogs caught the scent
quickly and were at once of Of a tive-
minute clip after their man. The spec.
tators enjoyed the sport from knoll,
and saw the hounds from start to nm
ish, In ten minutes they had freed
their man, who thought a lower limb
was safe enough. but when one OF the
hounds landed on the limb only a yard
away, the young man lost no time in
seeking the tOp-most limb where dogs
could not reach him.
Warden Hawk Is confident the dogs
would easily run down any convict who
succeeded IN escaping from the prison.
