for the murder of Charles McLaugh-

attorney Congressman Dovener, has

The stenographer has retained five
pages of the record ana will not give
them up until he gets his money.
Under the laws of this State, the date
of the execution must be postponed
until the appeal has been decided,
and consequently the case rests. The
