wEul-KNOwN ENGINEER DEAD.
Henry Resman Worked on [. &N. Rail
road for Yeeau.

Evansville, Ind, January T.
Henry Redman, one of the oldest
and best known engineers in this
section, died Sunday afternoon at
3 40 o'clock, at his home, PA
Mary street from paralysis. He
suffered the first stroke Wednes-
day evening. and a second fol-
lowed Thursday morning which
resulted in his death.
Some time ago while on duty
in the cab of his L. q N. engine
he was stricken with what is
commonly called an engineers
hemorrhage, which, as a rule, is
suffered by men of his oecupa-
tion, from leaning out of the cab
window to watch ahead. This
ended his long service on the road
for since then he was almost CON

DR.. Clark Sentenced al Dixon for the Death
Of Miss Waller.

DIXON, KY, Jan. 6.-Never has
Dixon seen such a sen sational MUIR
der trial as that of DIR. w. E. Clark
The case has been on for the week >
and the courthouse has been crowded
daily with eager listeners to the evi-'
dence, which at times has been high
ly sensational.
The evidence in the case was closed
yesterday afternoon and the Instruc-
tions given.
The physicians introduced by the
defense disagreed with the Sturgis
doctors almost diametrically as to-
the theory of the shock killing Cora
Waller. Drs. Arch, Dixon, Mosley,
Humphrey and Quinn, of Henderson,
stated positively that they could not
say that she died of shock.
The case went to the jury at exact
ly IL o'clock today. Judge Flournoy
closed the argument after one of the
hardest fought legal battles in the
history of this part of the State.
I'VE, the jury, find the defendant
guilty as charged, and fix his pun
ishment at confinement in the peni-
tentiary for ten years." was the ver-
diet in the Clark-Waller case. The
jury was out three hours.
DIR. Clark's attorneys will take an
appeal and he says he feels sure the
Court of Appeals will reverse the
decision of the lower court. H will
remain in Jail at Henderson until the
Court Of Appeals takes action.

Court Of Appeals May Rule That W. S.
Taylor Was De Facto Govlrnor
When They We're Signed.

Louisville, KY. Jan. 4.-In
connection with the appeal in
the Powers case, now pending
before the Appellate Court, an
interesting point has just been
brought out. Powers lawyers
are reckoning upon the belief
that the court will recog-
nize the pardon given their
client by Governor Taylor and
which was offered by the defense
at the outset of the trial and
overruled by Judge Cantrill,
afterwards becoming part of
the record.
1t is calculated that the court
will declare Taylor to have been
defacto Governor on March IL, at
the time the pardon was issued
and therefore his official acts
were legal.
If this expectation be realized
the same ruling will apply to
Culton, John Powers, Charles
Finley, John Davis and Harland
Whitaker, all of whom were
given pardons at the same time.
Although the cases of Noaks,
Green Golden, Wharton Golden
and w. III. Culton will all be
called next week when the Cir
cult Court court convenes at
Frankfort, it is not probable that
any will be tried, as Noaks is
missing and Wharton Golden and
Culton have been guaranteed
immunity.
Campbell insisted that Green
Golden be kept in Jail as Camp
bell believed such treatment
would bring valuable evidence
from the prisoner, but it is
now understood that Green
Golden still insists that he knows
nothing of Goebel's killing and
Will be released. Whether an
effort will again be made to in
indict the thirteen prominent
Kentuckians who were almost
indicted by the last grand jury
of Franklin county, remains to
be seen.

MACHINE SHOP AT WORK.
Mr.. Hanna Moves the Last Of His Foundry
From MadisonvilIe.

Mr.. Hanna has moved the last
of his foundry and machine shop
from Madisonville to the COM
modious new building erected by
him here during the past year.
This establishment comes here,
after having operated for some
years successfully at Madison
vile, because it's proprietor sees
in darlington better conditions,
surroundings and location for the
future growth and welfare of his
business.
darlington is pre-eminently the
