FEW FACTS WERE
 BROUGHT TO LIGHT
Investigation Into Shooting of
 Charles C. Braxton.
THE CORONER'S INQUEST
Jury Renders It's Verdict and Held That the Killing Was Unlaw .ully Done-Warrant Chargingl
 Murder Sworn Out

The coroner's jury yesterday investigated the killing of Charles (. Braxton. and re- turned verdict to the effect that he came to his death by reason of pistol shot wounds produced by pistol in the hands of George B. Wilmot. MT. Wi,mot was ac- cordingly committed to jail q warrant charging him with murder
 The only witnesses before the jury were pr. Abernathy, who made an examination of the wounds, and Mr. Wfmot who stated that he shot Braxton. Further than a statement 10 the effect that he had fired the fatal shots MT Wilmot. by the advice of h.s counsel. B. NJ. Allen. would make no statement.
 The coroner's jury returned the following verdict:
 We. the jury empaneled by the coroner of Jefferson county on, to-wit: the 29th day of Macch. 1900. ito inquire into the death of Charles C. Braxton, having diligently in- vestigated said cause. taking all the testi- mony obtainable, we agree that deceased came to his death by three pistol shot wounds, one entering the right ear and coming out at the top of the head. another entering upper left breast, and the third entering the left side and ranging straight across and entering the lung. We further find that said shots were from q forty-one calibre Colts revolver in the hands of George C. Wilmot. and that said shooting was unlawfully done.
 Alex Dallas, coroner of Jefferson county; G. P. Kirkland, William Ryan, A. E. Camp bell, H. C. Wheeloek. A. W. Miller, W. J. Boles. coroner's jury
 Upon the finding of the jury Coroner Dai- las issued warrant charging Wilmot with murder, which he handed to Sheriff O Brien. Wilmot was then returned to jail under the new charge which is returnable before Justice of the Peace II. B. Aber- nathy The preliminary trial will probably be had in day two.
 The body of Braxton was shipped to Rich mond, Va, yesterday for burial. He was a native of that city and is said to be of fine fam.iy. His son. who lives in this city, and his brother, who is a resident of New Decatur took charge of the body and gave directions for it's disposal.

A PARIS INCIDENT
Baron Rothschild and Count Lubersac
 Can't Fight Yet

Paris, March 3l-Under the caption "A Paris Incident" the Figaro publishes today some correspondence between Camte de Lubersac, eldest son of the Marquis de Lubersac, and Baron Robert de Rothschild eldest son of Barson Gustav, together with an account of unsuccessful negotiations for duel. A quarrel of long standing exists between these two young men. Monday Lubersac wrote Rothschild a violent and in sulting letter, reminding him that years ago he had told him certain unpleasant truths, but that both being minors then, a duel was impossible. Lubersac asks if Rothschild has not now attained his ma jority, and says
 'I shall be obliged to you for information, as I have searched in vain for your bap- tismal certificate in all the parishes of Paris"
 follows:
 "You know the disgust you and yours inspire in me, but not withstanding that shall honor you to the extent of holding myself at your disposal"
 On receiving the letter the baron sent his seconds. M de Saint Aleroy and M. de Nouhizo, to the writer, who appointed Comte de Dion and Comte Boni de Castei- lane as his representatives.
 The seconds met and duel was ar ranged, but finally the friends of Baron de Lubersac backed out on the plea that Bar on de Rothschild was only 20 years of age, although he had received his fathers per mission to fight, and is d student at the Ecole des Mines.
 This regrettaole affair is causing pain ful impression in society circles.
