CLANCY MURDER TRIAL
IS DRAWING TO A CLOSE
Most of the Witnesses for the Prose
cution Have Been Ex-

The trial of Patrick Clancy, special
officer on the charge of murder for shoot
ing and killing Attorney J. N. E. Wilson
on May q last, was continued before a
jury in Judge Lawlor's court yesterday
From the questions put to the witnesses
on cross examination it is apparent that
claim of self defense will be made and
probably temporary insanity.
The witnesses examined were DR.. Louis
d. Bacigalupi, who made the autopsy on
Wilson's body; Samuel H Bookheim who
heard the fatal shots; DIR; Cecil NJ. Armi-
stead, who attended Wilson at the Re-
ceiving Hospital; 4. /. Fitzpatrick, assist

dying statement; Henry T. Young who
found the envelope on which Wilson had
written that Clancy had shot him; Police

heard his admission that he had killed
Wilson, and Detective T. L. Ryan and

son acted as POSTMASTER.
Before Congressman Kahn went from
this city to the islands he conferred with

STEYN is lRRECONCILABLE

New York, March 14-The feeling of
confidence that terms Of peace with the
Beers will be arranged is increased says
a London dispatch to the Tribune. The
argument which is heard among them is
based upon the natural influence that
Delarey and Dewet can saddle upon
Botha the responsibility for initiating the
peace movements. The only honor that
remains for the Boer agents who have
fought for the past Is months is in hold
ing out to the last uitch and being drawn
with reluctance into peace negotiations.
DeWet and Delarey can now have the
distinction of having remained faithful
to the end and yielding to an appeal
from Botha to abandon the hopeless
conflict. Military men are convinced
that the Boer conference will be held,
TO take place this week, if Dewet be over
the Vaal, as is now probable, and that
the Boer leaders will begin by protest.
ing against surrender and by accepting
the terms offered by Lord Kitchener and
Sir Alfred Miner after holding Botha
accountable for the final collapse of their
cause. President Steyn remains in arms
and is probably the most irreconcilable
among the Boer leaders, but the Trans
vaal Dutch in the person of Botha have
sisnalled for truce and their allies from
the Orange Free State are no longer in
position to insist upon fighting in the
last ditch to the bitter end.

worth half million dollars. The greater
Fart of this little town was completely

we're homeless they ordered available
coaches between Louisville and Hender-
son hurried to Cloverport and in these
the unfortunates will for the time make
tteir homes. The management also sent
5000 loaves of bread and other food
Not store was left in the town where
mouthful of food could be obtained
\djutant General Murray telegraphed
that 500 tents had been shipped from
frankfort and the authorities at Louis
Vile wired that a trainload of relief SUD-
plies quickly gathered would leave at
noon.
At noon the fire was still burning in
spots, but little is left for it to devour
the few remaining houses being scat

residence section of the town.
There were a few minor accidents but
so far as known no one was reriouslv

The Taft co'n'',ic~io, has been ordered

recommendations for the form of gov

estimation of the president, when plans
for the government of the Philippines
may be submitted for his consideration,
The Taft commission is supposed to
be organizing local governments at
various points in the archipelago, but
it is asserted at the war department
that this is not interfering with the work
of preparing plans, and that the COM
mission is now at work on the scheme
of general government.
Nm intmation of the nature of the
