assault upon another Chinese, was be-
gun after the discharge Of the jury in

BITTERNESS OF KENTUCKY POLITICAL FEUDS

dor. Marcum staggered and as he sank
10 the floor another shot was fired. The
first bullet entered the back to the right
OF the spinal column, and after passing
through the breast and body, struck
the door facing him.
The next shot passed through the
top of his head and was aimed as he
reeled. The shots appeared to come
from a doorway. or possibly from be-
hind door in the corridor, but as the
passage was cleared amid great con-
fusion no one seemed able to state ac-
curately where the assassin was locat-
ed.
A telegram from County Judge Har-
ris received at $3.50 O'Clock tonight stat
ed that the assassin is still unknown,
after a dlligent search, and no arrests
as yet have been made, even on sus-
picion.
Marcum's body lay for ten minutes
untouched, Even his friends feared to
approach the place or to touch the
body 1t was finally picked up by
friends, who took II to a drug store OPP
Dosite and from there II was taken
home. Some say they saw the assassin
run out OF the rear door, and II seems
certain that he made his escape that
way during the confusion. 1t Is gener-
ally believed that the assassin was
recognized by several persons. but nc
one has thus far had the courage to
name him.
Marcum was a trustee of the Ken
lucky State College, and represented
the Lexington and Eastern Railroad
and other large corporations, and was
also United States Commissioner from
the district. He had practiced law In
Breathltt county for fifteen years. He
had avoided feuds and, until he took
charge OF the election cases which in
volved the Hargis faction, has been q
! friend Of members OF both factions.

Dispatches of May from Lexington,
KY, give the following additional de-
tails of the shooting of Attorney Maj
cum reported in Bulletin cable dis
patches:
He fell in his tracks at the front en-
trance at the courthouse at Jackson.
KY, and never spoke, death being al
most instantaneous. He fell with a
few yards OF where Town Marshal
James Cockrell was shot down in July,
the assassin being stationed in the
courthouse In each instance.
Marcum was counsel for the Fusion
lists, who are contesting for the Offices
OF Sheriff and other places now held
by Democrats. As a result OF his eff
forts and his sympathy with the Cock
rell faction in the Hargis-Cockrell feud
he had for a year been generally re-
garded as a marked man."
Various plots to assassinate him have
been reported and sworn to in affidav-
its. For seventy-two days last year
he was a prisoner in his own home,
daring not even go out on his porch.
The bitterness Of the feud abated some
what, however, and the election cases
were allowed TO sleep until Monday.
Despite warnings, Marcum felt safe
in resuming his interrupted practice
some time ago. and felt secure In filing
motion to reopen the cases which
had imperiled his life months ago
At s o'clock this morning he went
10 the courthouse at Jackson and the
papers were filed. He walked from the
clerks office to the front door OF the
courthouse and, facing the street, en-
gagged in conversation with Benjamin
Ewing, a friend. The corridor at his
back was full OF men. Ewing was hall
leaning on Marcum's shoulder, The
men had been talking about three min
utes, and II was $3.50 o'clock when a
