UNDER MARTIAL LAW.
Better Order Is Maintained by the
Troops I'm Jackson.


jackson. Kys June. 11.-Putting' the
town under martial law, with Provost
Marshal Longmire in charge, has
created CONSERVATION in some circles
and relief in others. The soldiers on
guard and on picket duty are author
lied to make arrests anywhere and
take their prisoners before the grand
jury and not before the county judge.
The closing of the blind tigers" and
the vigilant patrol of the troops to see
that the closing orders of the provost
marshal are rigidly enforced, have
stopped the random firing in and
about the town at night and have also
made quite a difference during the
day.
1t was openly stated to-day that B.
L. Even would not have dared hereto
fore to tell about being offered $1,000 If
he would not testify against the de-
PENDANT. 1t is thought the jurors, as
well as the witnesses, will have less
fear in the discharge of their duties.
The soldiers are disarming all whom
they find with concealed weapons.
Miss Laura Rawlings, a clerk, testi-
ne0 IHaI she saw Jet come OUT OF the
side door of the Court House just after
the shooting of Marcum, and Seldum
Back testified to the same thing.
Henry Hurst, Marcum's brother-in-
law, was at the postoffice at the time
of the shooting, and he testified to
what he saw after he reached the
Court House.
In the .cross-examination of Hurst
the defense objected to reference to
Joseph Moore's statements about poi
soning prisoners. The court took the
admission of this evidence under adj
visement.
Grannis Back, son of Judge Back,
testified to seeing Jet enter the Court
House before the shooting. S. s. Taul-
bee testified to seeing Even looking
into the Court House while the shoot
ing was going on, and then run down
the street.
Later the court ruled that Hurst
could testify as to the conversation
about poisoning prisoners but attor-
neys for the defense withdrew the
question, and the evidence could not
be entered. The conversation was that
Tom White was told by Hurst that
two men would give $1,000 each to
have the prisoners poisoned in case
of conviction to guard against con-
fessions. 4ti~4

acted at the palace at Belgrade dur
ing the night.
The tragedy of the palace at Bel
grade, marking the latest of the revo-
buttons which have convuIsed Servia
from time to time during the past
century, is not regarded in diplomatic
circles in London as likely to lead to
civil war.
The universal anxiety of the gov
eminent of Europe for peace is ad-
vanced as a reason why the Servian
situation is not likely to lead to COM
plications.
A special dispatch from Rome all
leges that nearly hundred persons
were killed last night at Belgrade. but
there is no confirmation Of this report
from elsewhere.
