Mrs. Hull made more favorable impress
sion while on the witness stand today than
she did during her first examination. The
lines of her resolute face were relaxed. She
gave more evidence of feeling and interest
and her voice was that of a woman who had
become weary of it all. She looked older
and there was something more venerable
and kindly in her refined face.

TRACK MUCH IMPROVED
MANY AUTOMOBILES AND FINE
TURNoUTs IN ENCLOSURE.

Bright, sunshiny weather and an almost
perfect track has revived the racing Split
in Washington, and this afternoons attend
ance at Benning was far and away the best
of the meeting. The cold. bracing wind
continued from the northwest and made it
somewhat uncomfortable for the ladies in
the grand stand, but the sterner sex forgot
the atmospheric conditions while battling
with the bookies In the ring. The latter
have finally got their bearings. and today
forty of them occupied stools and did a
good business. By Saturday the full con-
tingent Of fifty will get down to business.
The track had dried ont wonderfully, and
the going today was almost up to the
record.
By tomorrow i should be in first-class
shape, and for the great card Saturday 1t
is expected to be lightning fast.
The crowd around the club house today
was also the largest of the meeting, the
roads having dried out sufficiently to make
the trip in automobiles pleasure. and
many handsome turnouts were in the in
closure.
There were two extra cars attached to
the Baltimore special, many of the theat-
rical profession being among the large
crowd from the oyster city.
Today's card, while not up to the high
standards of the eastern tracks, was the
best of the week, and this improvement will
continue.

Inquest in Pennell Case, Too.
1t was the understanding today that the
inquest into the death of Arthur R. Pencil
will be held Immediately, and that the YER
dict in the Burdick case will not be render
ed until after the close Of the Pencil in
quest. when both verdicts will be handed
down simultaneously
Naturally there has been considerable
speculation as to what the verdict is likely
to be in the Burdick case. Under the new
law the police justice has the right to issue
a warrant at the close of an inquest in
murder case in the event that the evidence
brought out during the investiga tion is
sufficient to indicate the guilt of any par
ticular person with sufficient cleafness as
to make an indictment b. the grand jury
reasonably certain. 1t is not thought pos
sible that the court in this instance will
name any one in any warrant which he
may fit to issue. 1t is possible how
ever. that he may issue warrants for the
arrest of John Doe and Jane Roe. In that
event the district attorney would be oblig-
ed To submit the whole case to the grand
jury. ....--
The report of Chemist Hill shows that
no poisons were found in the liquor bottle
found on the table in Burdcks den on the
morning following the murder. There was
no poison in the stomach. There were no
blood stains on the golf stick.

Mondays Review.

Chicago had her usual 30, 900
cattle today; prices ruled.all the way
from steady to IS cents per cwt.
lower. With only 1880 cattle on
this market, sales were generally
made at prices ranging from S to 10
cents lower than the close of the
week. The average prices were IS
cents per cwt. lower than a week ago.
Only one drove of cattle sold here
today above $500 per cwt.; all
grades of butcher stuff were depress-
ed in sympathy with the mean beef
cattle market. A very limited sup
ply of stockers were offered, and
prices obtained were steady with
aast week, S values. An active de-
ahand was noted for the better
grades.
Chicago reports 41,ooo hogs,
market S to 10 lower. Receipts
here were 5000 and sales averaged
from S to ~ cents lower, with top
sale at s6.4s; the bulk of sales were
from Sc. 80 to s6:4o.
Indications point towards 5000
top in the near future.

JUDGE w. T. KEITH KILLED.
The Difficulty Arose Over The
Publication OF an Article in the
Sun TO Which Deceased Took
Excepffons.

From the Dalhart (Texasl Texan.
About the middle of the forenoon
on last Monday the business center
of our city on Denrock avenue was
startled by three pistol shots near
the Office of w. I. Keith, an at
torney of this city. A crowd soon
gathered and Keith was found dying
on the sidewalk in front of Jim
Gains saloon. A few minutes later
Geo. F. Kornegay, editor and pro-
prietor of the Dalhart Sun. weekly
newspaper published here, gave him
self up to w. F. FELTON, and stated
that he did the shooting. which re-
suited in Mr.. Keith's death.
The difficulty which led up to the
shooting was occasioned by the fol-
lowing article which appeared in the
Sun of May, 9th:
attorney w. T. Keith was ar
rested Thursday and placed under
bondto appear before justice court
on Monday, the nth. He is charg.
ed with carrying a pistol and dis
turbing the peace.
1t seems that Mr.. Keith took of
| tense at the article and as Mr.. Korne
gay was passing down Denrocl
avenue called him in and thus al
argument arose which resulted il
the shooting.
The remains of deceased wer
