RESPONSIBILITY FOR TIE WRECK
OfhciaIs of ths Road Declare That It Rests
ON Engineer Probst.

In discussing the question Of respon-
sibility for the horror, the railroad Of
ficials unhesitatingly lay it TO Engin-
eer Probst. Probst says that the air
brake on his train refused to work,
but the officials declare that he could
have stopped the train In time to have
avoided serious consequences. Gener-
al Manager F. H. Michigan said:
.Probst knew that he was coming
into yard where trains usually stand
and take on coal and water. The rules
say plainly that engineers shall ap-
proach such yards with the trains un-
der control. A br- KEENAN, sent back
by the first train warned him of the
danger three-quarters of a mile before
he got to the standing section. For
nearly half mile before he got to the
first train the track Is straight aud
clear. and he should have been able
to see the red light on the back of
the train ahead In time to stop his
train"
The official report on the accident
issued by Superintendent Brownlee, de-
ciares positively that the air brakes
have been tested since the accident
and found to be in perfect condition,
and there is evidence that they were
not applied One Of the officials In
discussing the accident and Its cause
said he believed that Engineer Probst
had exhausted his air In checking his
train several times between Lansing
and Durand. and failed to again charge
his tank. The head brakeman and
fireman, who were on the engine, bear
out Engineer Probst's statement that
the brakes refused to work.

REPUTATION OF EVEN
Star Witness for the Prosecution
in the Marcum Case Wig.
orousiy AssaiIed.
UNTRUTHFUL AND BAD. IN MORALS
Say Witnesses for the Defense-Edt q
Church and Sunday School
Attendant.

Cynthiana, KY, Aug. z. = In the
case Of the commonwealth Of Ken
lucky against Jet and White, now on
trial here for killing j. b. Marcum on
May last, the defense put several
witnesses ON the stand to testify to the
general facts connected with the muir
der and then proceeded to try to i'm
peach the reputation Of Captain Even,
the star witness Of the prosecution.
Some twenty-five witnesses from his
own county and other witnesses from
Powell county, where he resided until
he moved to Jackson some ten years
ag2, testified that his morality was
bad, as was his reputation for truth
fulnesS.
But He Was o Good Church Member.
At the same time some of them tes-
titled that he was a church-goer, con-
slant attendant on Sunday school, and
that he never drank whisky or gam
bled. Many of them were confused
on cross-examination, especially those
from Breathitt county. The best i'm
peaching evidence was offered by a
number OF citizens of Powell county,
including among their number the
county judge, the sheriff and others,
who testified that Even had a bad
reputation as to morality and truthful
ness among his neighbors, although
each of these witnesses, as far as their
personal opinion was concerned, testi-
fed without exception that he paid his
debts promptly and never drank, and
attended church regularly while resid-
ing among them.
Defense Witness IL Impeached.
"Tick" James Beech, VINO testified
several days ago for the defense, was
c0ntradicted by Witness Russell, tor
the prosecution, and also by Cyrus
Holland. Beech swore several days ago
he had seen the killing, and these wit
nesses say that Beech told them that
he did not see the killing, and that he
was glad he did not see 1t. The COM
monwealth is making preparations to
swear out warrant for the arrest
of Beech and John l.. Noble. They will
be charged with false swearing.
Identification IL Questioned.
Curtis Jet and Thomas White were
recalled to the stand and asked by the
defense to go to the farther end of the
court house and stand side by side
with their backs to the jury and their
hats on. This was upon the theory
of the defense that they looked much
alike, and SO nearly the same height,
that at several hundred yards they
could not be told anart
