REDKEY, Ind. March 24.-At l2:30 o clock
this afternoon this town was thrown into
great state of excitement by the shooting
Of Maggie Shepherd by her husband,
Charles Shepherd. at the home of Ben
Whitsell on Bell avenue.
Shepherd married Miss Maggie Mallen
about one year ago. but, as he was abusive
she left him after they had lived together
about six mouths and went TO live with
her brother at Boswell. Shepherd con-
tinued TO run his barber shop here Mrs
Shepherd returned only last week to visit
her parents. and Shepherd tried to fix up
the differences. but failed TO do so. While
she was at her sisters, Mrs. Whitselfs,
to-day. Shepherd again appeared on the
scene in a troublesome mood. Ben Whit
sell tried to eject Shepherd. and the shoot
ing followed.
Five shots in all were fired, four taking
effect in Mrs Shepherd, one through her
body just under the right nipple, two
through the right arm and one through
finger. She fell to the floor and Shepherd
turned the pistol on himself. The ball en-
tered just under the right temple and was
cut out just over the right eye. Both are
supposed TO be fatally injured and their
deaths are expected at any time
Mrs. Shepherd is the daughter of Frank
Mallen. "A glass worker and Is twenty years

FINDS AGAINST THE DOCTOR.
Court Decides He Cannot Recover
Money stolen by Davis.

Special the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Ind, March 24.-After
weeks of waiting Judge Houghton handed
down decision in the case of Dr. Goshorn
VS.. the Peoples National Bank to-day. The
court held for the defendant.
This suit was brought to recover 5000
which Goshorn had on deposit and had
given Cashier Davis authority TO place it
on deposit for him with the Columbia FL
nance and Trust Company of Louisville.
KY. Goshorn claims he was dealing with
officer of the bank, and that that officer
failed to place the money on deposit, but
used il to reduce his liabilities to the bank,
being then an embezZler of the bank s
funds The bank claimed that the cashier
had no authority TO accept money in the
name of the bank for such a transaction,
and insisted that the bank was not respOn-
sible for the unlawful acts of the cashier.
The court held such views also, and gave
a verdict for the defendant bank The case
will be appealed.
Public sentiment is clearly against the
decision, and il is said a moral principle
was involved that would not justify the
banks escaping payment of the amount OF
the deposit on a bare technicality.
