TERRORISM AT JACKSON
FEUD SITUATION IN KENTUCKY
AGAIN REPORTED SERIOUS.
Witnesses Inundated and the Grand
Jury Unable to Return Indict-
ments for Lack of Evidence.

JACKSON. Ky, July 24.-The feud situa-
tion here is dangerous. Mckinley Cock
rill. the nineteen-year-old brother of
James COckrill, who was assassinat ted,
worked hard to get witnesses before the
grand jury. His brother Tom, who had
been hiding in the vicinity of Jackson,
came into town to-day and also took a
hand, but accomplished little. 1t is now
charged that the pending investigation of
the grand jury has been so interrupted by
ing the appearance of others that it is
deemed useless to continue the investiga-
ton
BY vote Of eight TO four the grand Jury
refused to indict Deputy Sheriff William
Britton on the charge of being accessory
In numbering Town Marshal James Cock
rill. The jury also failed to indict Asbury
Spicer. Witness Charles Green testified
that he recognized two men whose names
he did not know. with Curtis Jett when
the three shot Cockrill from the courthouse
window. On the strength of this Britton
and Spicer were arrested but Green's fall
ure TO identify them as the murderers so
weakened the evidence against the men
that the grand jury refused to indict.
Green was brought and kept here under
duress and has been In a state of terror
since he came. Some believed he feared
to tell all he knows. Green was taken
back to Lexington by detachment of SOL
diers.
AS Riley Coldiron came from the grand
Jury room he was arrested by Sheriff CAL
lahan for perjury. Coldiron testified that
Britton and Spicer were with Curtis Jett
when Cockrill was killed. The grand Jury
refused to indict Coldiron and ordered his
release as well that of Spicer and Brit
ton because of insufficient evidence. Nc
Kinley Cockrill. brother of the assinated

openly jubilant over the result of the work
of the present grand jury. which is prac-
ticaIly completed.

positively announced that they will walk

allied trades will take sympathetic action
The Civil-service Commission issued an act
of reinstatement which reached the public
printer about noon to-day and Mr.. Palmer
announced positively that in accordance
with the order Miller would return to work
tomorrow morning, unless there was in
the meantime some executive order TO the
contrary, which he said was very improb-
able. He declined to discuss his policy fur
ther and said that he did not believe the
bookbinders would walk out.
Secretary Co-telyou has advised the Book
binders Union that the charges against Mil
ler are matters for the consideration of the
public printer, as they involve an employe
of the latter's Office. He also has advised
them that the question settled by the Presi-
dents order of reinstatement and the
charges of unrtness employe now
pending are separate and distinct subjects,
the former being regarded closed in
cident.

to seek for excellence in perform

each, leading actors are often invited
to assume miner roles. Theater-
goers thus have the comfortable as
surance that every character will re-

that the resultant.whole will be con-

this principle should be character
istic of next years performances at
the Metropolitan opera house under
Mr.. Conried's direction. The audi
ence will have an opportunity to
hear, not merely singers, but operas.
The new manager of the greatest
opera house in the world has always
accomplished much with little. The
Irving Place theater, which he has
directed for ten years, is not -four

out of proportion to the Importance

his accomplishments with limited ia

made him the most conspicuous of
New York theatrical managers. From
that night in 1872 when he spoke the
prologue at the opening of the Resi-
denz theater in Vienna and began his
theatrical career, he has advanced
steadily. He acted successfully in
Ieipsic and Bremen; he had the man.
agement of the Stadt theater in Bre-
men, where he had his only operate
experience, and in 1877 he came to
the United States as stage director OF
the Germania theater. Since that time
he has brought to New York all the
most noted German actors. He has
obtained consistently artistic results
with material means that would have
discouraged most experienced and am.
bilious managers.

SCHIFF AND MORGAN.
They Are the Two Greatest Finan-
ciers Of Wall Street.
Sem eaAinx About the Aggressive He.
brew Banker Who' Won the
Northern Pacific Fight and
Bought the Reading.

The man who could best wear the
mantle of Mr.. j. p. Morgan, if that
financier should leave Wall street, is
Mr.. Jacob II. Schiff, according to Rob-
ert n. Burnett, who contributes e
sketch of the banker to the Cosmo-
politan, in its Captains of Industry"
series.
Mr.. Schiff it was, so Mr.. Burnett tells
US, that really won from j. Pierpont
Morgan and James j. Hill the famous
fight for the control of the Northern
Pacific. While Mr.. Hartman appeared
more prominently on this occasion,
"Mr. Schiff was the power behind the
throne" Furthermore, Mr.. Schiff can
not only fight and win, but can COM
promise. He voluntarily suggested
that Mr.. Morgan be empowered 20
name the new board of directors of
the Northern Pacific which should rep
resent both sides and agree to unite
on plan for the joint control of the
road. Then he further showed his gen.
crosby by allowing the unfortunates
who had been "short" of Northern Pa
cific to cover their contracts at the
nominal price of $3.50 per share, when
he might have compelled payment of
two or three times that amount.
Mr.. schiff's ability as financier was
first brought before the public several
years ago by the reorganization Of
the Union Pacific railway and the set
Element of the debt to the government.
Later he took hand in the purchase
of the Chicago & Alton, and also in the
acquisition of the Southern Pacific.
The firm of which he is the head, Kuhn,
Loeb & Co.. is frequently employed by
such great concerns as the Pennsyl-
vania and Baltimore 4 Ohio railroads
to conduct their largest financial oper-
ations.

financiering which placed Mr.. Schiff

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES tLAG.
"a Combination of~the Union Jack and
Royal French Standard.)
for the adoption Of flag that would
have the effect OF. 1.-THE tie that binds"
among his fellow-countrymen.
This priest is Able Filiatrault, Of
St. Judge, in the district of St. Hya-
cinthe, and his idea of the flag which
would best depict the feelings of
French-Canadians is shown in the ac-
companying illustration.
Here is flag which has for its basis.
in composition, that of the "Drapeau
Carillon," one of the flags of the
French when they first landed in Can
ada.
In many ways it is very simple.
but at the same time very imposing
emblem. It has for q ground a blue
color, and this is crossed with white,
while in each of the four corners is
placed white fleur-de-lis.
Many are the questions that have
been asked why the French-Canadians
desire to break away from the French
flag. This is best told in the language
of one of them.
"It is DESTROYS on our part that We
should have a distinctive flag of our
own. We honor the union jack. which
is4our protector, but still we are of
French origin and cannot forget the
emblem of our ancestors. But we wish
to have an emblem which will portray
an idea of what we have descended
from, which the tri-color does not con-
vey.
'The Jack is the only flag which we
can look up to as protector, and ii
is not our desire to flaunt the tri-color
in the face of the English-speaking
people. which in time of trouble be-
tween Great Britain and France would
he distasteful."
