DEMOCRATS
VICTORIOUS
In Breckenridge County in Both
County and State Elec.
lions Tuesday,
ALL MAJORITIES ARE SMALL.

The election for state and county
officers Tuesday in Breckenridge county
was very close, the Democrats coming
out ahead by small majorities. At
all the precincts much enthusiasm
was shown by the voters Of both par
ties and it was predicted that he
races would be close.
In the race for Representative the
unofficial returns show thar the Hon.
d. c. Norman, the Democratic can
didate, received majority Of 43 over
Matt Payne, the Republican candidate.
In the race for Circuit Clerk Tom
Moore, the Democratic candidate, re-
ceived 81 more votes than W. s. Ball,
the Republican candidate. Jolly, the
Democratic candidate for Surveyor,
Weed Chelf, Democratic candidate
for Circuit Judge, and J. R. Lay
man, Democratic candidate for Com
monwealth's Attorney, had no opposi
tion from the Republican party.
Beckham won over Belknap by the
small majority of 10. The election
over the county was very quiet and
no disturbances or frauds have bee Il
reported At Hudsonville,a Republican
precinct, 90 ballots were thrown GU
as illegal. Voting for the Prohibition
Socialist and Socialist Labor ticket
was very light and no votes were cas-
for any of these tickets In a numbe
of precincts. Few votes also wer
cast for or against the Constitutions
amendment. The vote for Governor
Representative and Circuit Clerk h!
majorities will be found on the las

Tobacco Situation Unchanged.

the tobacco situation in this city,
as far as can be learned, is unchang
ed. John Phelon is contemplating
renting the Pace warehouse, in which
case he will huy for Galleher & Co
If he does this it viii be good thing
for the town in one way, as it will
give employment to forty or fifty
stemmers. if the tobacco is not ship
ped to the company's large stemmer-
les. If this company buys here it IL
not known at present what effect 1t
will have on prices. The public does
not know whether Galleher & Co
belong to the the tobacco trnst Some
are inclined to think one way and
some another. 1t Is not known now
whether they would cut prices on
each other or not, but it is the opin
ion that Galleher & Co., like the
American, will not improve the
prices. The market for the tobacco
growers IN this section is still very
uncertain and yet matter of con-
lecture.

And Yet No Statement.

Although more than month has
elapsed since President Dorsey, of the
State Fair association, promised the
Owensboro guarantors an with itemized
statement of the receipts and expend-
itures of the second annual state fair,
the report has not been received, and
the probabilities are that the docu-
ment will be delayed until after the
association holds Its annual meeting
on November >. There are large
number of unpaid accounts over the
State and the creditors of the insti-
tuition are clamoring for their money.

Enjoying Good Trade.

The merchants Of this city are en-
ioying an excellent fall trade. All of
them have brought on much new
goods and it keeps their clerks busy
to wait on their customers during the
fall rush. On account of the heavy
buying a number of the stores have
had to employ more clerks. The trade
is especially good on Saturdays and
these good times for the merchants are
only few out of the MANY indica-
tions that Cloverport is on a boom.

Baby's Parentage.
A LARGE SUM INVOLVED.
Upon the Question Whether Mrs.
Robinson or Mrs. Methenx was
Infants Mother Hung Aue
20 Pittsburg Property.
4 LARGE SUM INVOLVED.

Pittsburg, May 22-The end OF one
Of the most sensational cases ever
tried IN the United States circuit court
came when the jury in the case of
Beverly Robinson against Robert 5.
Stephenson aud others returned a YER
dict for the defendants.
The case was for eighteen feet Of
property in Wood street, worth about
100000, and involved the paternity Of
a child. The plaintiff claimed title
through a child which he alleged was
born to his wife, who was his cousin.
Miss Katherine Vera Robinson. They
were married December, 1896, and it
is alleged that the child was born in
March, 1897, in Omaha, where they
had gone 10 avoid publicity Robinson
and his wife were accompanied to
Omaha by Mrs. David Gregg Metheny,
sister of Mrs. Robinson.
Both Women and Child Dead.
The family came east after the birth
Of the child, and in the summer OF 1898
they spent several weeks at Fair Ha-
ven, Vt. One day Mrs. Metheny was
seized with commissions and died very
suddenly The next morning Mrs. Rob
inson and the child were dead, both
having been shot. The suicide or muir
der of the woman and the murder of
the child were testified to during the
trial Of the case. The defense was
that the child was not the child of
Mrs. Robinson, but was the child of
Mrs. Metheny. Metheny is one of the
defendants and the verdict gives him
the title through tile child born to his
wife.
Robinson gave positive testimony
that the child was born to his wife and
that she had nursed the baby matt
urally. This latter fact was also testl-
fed TO by other witnesses.
On the other hand, a sister Of Mrs
Robinson and Mrs. Metheny was pres
ent in the room when the child was
born and swore that it was the child
Of Mrs. Metheny. She admitted that
she had introduced Mrs. Metheny to
the doctor ais Mrs. Robinson and for
that reason the doctor had believed
hat the child was that Of the Mrs. Rob
inson whom he visited professionally.
