The Hedges Murder Trial

The second trial of James Hedge;
for the killing Of William Bochard
began on last Monday. On the frs,
trial. the jury disagreed, being about
evenly divided on the question of
murder in the second degree and
justifiable killing in self defense.
The details of the case were pub
lIshed at the time of trial and are
familiar to the readers of the SENTI-
MEL.
Bochard and wife had separated,
the wife going home to her fathers,
William Buzzard, near Buena Vista.
James Hedges, young man, unmar.
ried was was making his home at
Buzzards, working about the premis-
es for his board. Bochard was a
farm laborer.
On Sunday Jan Z Bochard, secure
eo buggy and went to Buzzards, it
is claimed, for the purpose of secur-
ing his wife and move away and live
together. He had, it is claimed the
suspicion that Hedges was the cause
Of his wife's arrangement; that on
arriving at the Buzzard house, he was
denied an interview. He forcibly
entered the house, bad an alteration
with Hedges, was compelled to leave,
subsequently returning with neigh
bor boy, and when on the opposite
side of the road, from the house the
fatal shot was fred.
The defense claim that Bochard
came to the house making threats:
that he broke open the door with an
ak and with an AK and razor pur-
sued Hedges up the stair way where
he was resisted, and disarmed. He
left making threats, and when he re-
turned in the course of an hour, ad-
vanced close to the house when
Hedges, fearing for his life shot
qim.
These are the material points OF in
terest in issue.
The prosecuting Attorney is assist
ed by Mr.. V. c. Wright, and E. S.
Rickets. The defense is conducted
by A. K. McBroom and Mr.. Thos.
Dolson. Over a hundred witnesses
are in attendance. Judge Wright is
enforcing the rules in the manage
ment of the case, and preserving quiet
order and decorum in the court room.
The court officers are diligent and
courteous.
All the physicians in the city were
witnesses and also experts from abroad
.estlfying to the effect of gun shot
wound in the heart, The turning
point in the case is, was Bochard, as
he defense claims, shot through the
,eart when in the yard 20 feet from
he door, afterwards running a dis
ance of 100 feet out of the yard and
lcross the the road where the dead
,ody lay; or was he shot on the road
md '.fell dead in his tracks" The
Doctors differ.

Democratic Attempt to Euchre Re-
publicans Out of Two First Branch
Members Of Council Is Sure to be
Flat Failure.
The action OF the Democratic city
committee IN issuing instructions that
suggestions be made for two first
branch OF council nominations In the
Fourth and Sixth wards, where vacan-
cIes have been nlIed by the election Of
their successors by council, opens up an
Interesting question that will doubt
less have to be settled In the courts.
but that the Democratic position that
the vacancies must be filed by the vo-
tiers at the next ensuing election will
be knocked out completely Is the gen.
eral opinion among the Republican poll
tIclans, and also in the legal frater-
nifty.
The Democrats, it Is said. base their
contention upon the West Virginia
state code, but they forget that the code
expressly does not apply to the city of
Wheeling, which operates under the
provisions OF its charter. Two years
ago. by the way. the then city solicit
tor, Mr.. Frank w. Neshitt. looked into
this question. and decided that an cleo
ton by council Is for the entire unex-
PRED term.
An amendment to the charter. passed
BY the legislature In 1870, provides that
the term Of members Of the first branch
Of council shall be for four years. An
act passed in 1868 provides that the
two branches OF council shall be the
judges OF the, qualifications of their
members, with power to make all need
full rules and regulations. Another sec
ton OF this same act provides that the
first branch shall have the power to
Ill vacancies by appointment of quail
fed persons.
There is nothing In the charter or
subsequent legislative enactments re-
lating to the city Of Wheeling that
gives the Democrats any excuse for
what they are now attempting.
