The MoCue Trial.

Charlottesville, Va. Oct. 18.-Ex-
Mayor J. Samuel McCue, of Charlottes-
vile, was arraigned in the Cooperation
Court today, for the murder of his wife.
An immense crowd, containing many so.
ciety women, sought admission to the
court room. A few women gained seats.
w. o. Durrett, cousin of the accused,
who had been summoned as a witness,
did not answer his name, whereupon
Commemorative Attorney Gilmer sug-
gested that proceedings be stopped until
the apparent mystery was cleared up.
Later the court adjourned until 1880
p. IN. by which time it was hope some
reply woald come from Durrett. Dur
rett is McCue's first cousin, and it was
he who discovered in the bath room
near Mrs. McCue's dead body torn bit
of cloth which the prosecution hopes to
prove fits torn nndershirt McCue wore

TUESDAY EVENING. OCT. IS. 1904

TIVE INVESTIGATION recently made
Nv Government officials into the nature
Of the spurious liquors sold throughout
tine United States has caused sensation
among the many who use the same as a
beverage. 1t had long been known that
ardent spirits were adnlterated, but
Deonle who consume them imagined
that the ingredients were generally
harmless and preferred not to make close
inquiry as to what rectifers used in ma
nipulating the product of the still. 1t
now appears that drugs enter into the
preparations of whisky that are not only
deIeterious to health, but absolutely
dangerous, and the fact that recently
several persons have been killed out
right BY swallowing potions compounded
IN certain bar rooms in New York has
naturally caused apprehension. Laws
concerning adulteration have always
h zen lax in the United States, and not
only are liquors poisoned by unprincl-
pled manipuIators, but nearly all things
we eat or drink are more or less "doc-
tored" before they reach the consumer.
It would be interesting reading for any
one to peruse the article on adulterat'oD
in any standard encyclopedia. Flour is
often said to have its weight increased
nv the mingling of ground plaster
ground pepper by ashes. while ginger
cinnamon and other household articles
contain bat a small proportion OF either
In most European countries stringent
laws have been enacted against this per-
nicious practice, and officials see that
they are honOred. In England manu-
flcturers are compelled to print the for
mula on all packages, and by ibis
method the consumers know what they
are purchasing. The liquor traffic re-
ceives especial surveillance. Govern
ment officials are liable TO appear in sa-
looms at any time and apply tests to the
brands offered for sale, and when infrac-
tions of the law are discovered severe
penalties are inflicted upon the guilty
parties. But in the United States a
person is liable literally TO be served
with poison in some places, as is shown
by the cases in New York alluded to
above.

Accidentally Shot.

Boston, Oct. 1S.-Joe Walcott, the
negro prize fighter, shot and killed Nell
son Hall, also negro, 40 years old, at a
negro dance in University Hall, about
1910 o'clock this morning. There is
little doubt that the shooting was acct
dental. Walcotfs right hand was pierced
through by the bullets that poured from
the muzzle of his magazine pistol, and it
is argued that had the shooting been in
territorial, Walcott would have at least
spared himself. Hall died almost imme-
diately after the shooting, death being
the result OF two bullet wounds just over
heart. Walcotts hand was dressed, and
be was detained at the hospital for treat
ment. He will appear in court this
morning to answer to a charge Of murder.
Walcott claims that he was showing the
weapon to Hall, and be thinks that in
some way one OF the fingers of his lett
hand touched the sensitive trigger of the
pistol and it went of.
1t was determined today to place a
charge of manslaughter against Walcott.
A number of witnesses to the shooting
were examined and they agreed in their
statements that the shooting was acct
dental.

Trouble Among Methodists.

Buffalo, n. Y, Oct. 1S.-Action
probably unprecedented in the annals Of
Methodistism has been taken at meet
ing OF The Methodist Episcopal ministers
of the district OF Buffalo. They voted
to ask the Board of Bishops of the Meth
odist Episcopal church in this country
to readjust the appointments OF ministers
in the Genesee conference, with as little
delay as possible, or to designate one of
their number to do so. Thus the Buffalo
ministers ask the most important board
of the Methodist Episcopal church to
undo the work of Bishop Thomas b.
Neeley, of Philadelphia, who presided
at the annual session OF the Genesee con-
ference of two weeks ago, and who made
about 100 appointments for western
New York. 1t is claimed that nearly
one half Of these appointments are un7
satisfactory. The memorial will be
drawn up this week and presented to
the Board of Bishops at its semi-annual
meeting at Worcester, Mass, on Oct. 81.
1t is feared there will be a set back to
the cause Of Methodism in western
New York if the arbitrary action of
Bishop Neeley, as it is termed, is allow
ed 70 stand. It is pointed out that en-
tire congregations are aroused over the
utter lack Of attention paid to their re-
quest for certain ministers. Not only
were their requests utterly ignored by
the presiding bishop, but they were not
consulted with at all, respecting the
ministers who finally were sent to them.
When sane sober men of the cloth use
such terms as Gar. srrogancy, etc. in
connection with Bishop Neeley's course,
one may get an idea of the feeling
in Methodist circles in this city.
The presiding elders at the recent con-
ference are also coming in for criticism.
The bishop muzzled them, it is said, so
that nc knowledge of the appointments
could be acquired by the ministers until
they were formally announced by the
bishop himself. Previously such secrecy
was never observed. rhe presiding elders
would consult the minister. and the
bishop consulted the elders. But in this
instance there was little consultation on
the part of any one. Bishop Neeley, it is
claimed, carried things with a high
hand, without respect for the feelings
of either churches or ministers.

On Bryan,s Trail.

Chicago, Oct. lS.-One part OF thc
machinery of the Republican National
committee is secret service. Five OF
its sleuths have been following Bryan on
his tour of Indiana. Each man IS sep
arately instructed TO go 10 the villages
and cities where Bryan has talked and
10 investigate just what the resi has
been OF Bryan's repeated request that all
silver democrats who voted for hiN shall
vote for Parker. The reports for the
first tour days of the Bryan tour show
that the radical silver men have decided
to do what their leader asks, and that there
are few silver men or Bryan democrats
10 Indiana who will not vote for Parker.
The reports at the national committee
show that fully $4,000 radical Bryan
democrats have been persuaded by Bryan
to vote the regular ticket. The appre-
hension of the managers of the national
campaign over the Bryan tour increased
from day to day as the reports of his en-
thusiastic meetings came in, until they
are little panicky. They Investigated the
situation as to the gold democrats long
ago and found that nearly all the demo-
Gratis who voted for Mckinley or for
Palmer and Buckner in 1896 have re-
turned to the party. They find this to
be so in the cities and in the country.

Amendment to Divorce Canon.


The House of Bishops, one of the
legislative bodies of the Episcopal Gen
eral Convention, now in session in Bos-
ton, yesterday adopted an amendment to
the canon on marriage and divorce, for
bidding the remarriage Of any divorced
person. The amendment was substan-
italy the same as that which was re-
iected by the House of Deputies ON
Friday last. The action of the bishops
was not unexpected, as the sentiment of
that body was well known. In fact, a
similar amendment was passed at the
San Francisco convention three years
ago, but failed, as was the case this year,
to secure the support of the other house
A conference of committees representing
the bishops and the deputies will be held
to consider the disagreement, but lead
ing clergymen do not anticipate that the
deputies will recede from their vote Of
last week,
The amendment adopted by the bish-
ops is as follows;
"No minister shall solemnize a mar
riage between any two persons unless
by inquiry he shall have satisfied him
telf that neither person has been, or is,
the husband or the wife of any other
person then living, from whom he or
she has been divorced for any cause
arising after marriage"
Several additional amendments were
presented in the House of Bishops, one
of which provides that = divorced per-
son shall not be admitted to the sacra.
ments. There is provlso, however,
that the sacraments shall not be refused
a penitent person in imminent danger Of
death, nor to any person who shall
solemnly aver that be or she was the in
nocent party in divorce for the cause
of adultery.
Another amendment sets forth the
procedure to be followed in case a clergy
man is in doubt concerning the mar
rage of any person and lays the case be-
lore the bishop. These two amend
mems Will De TAKEN up To-Day.
Another amendment, which was adopt
ed, compels all clergymen to observe
closely the state law on marriages and
provides for the presence of at least two
witnesses.
The special committee appointed to
consider resolutions cOndenning lynch
ing, presented by Gen. J. II. Stotzen-
burg, of indianapolis, reported that, as
the church stood for law and order at all
times, action on the resolutions was not
necessary. General Stotzenbarg offered
a substitute resolution which condemned
"the brutal murder of colored persons
and the atrocious assassination by hang
ing, burning and fendish mutilation."
The whole matter was placed on the
calendar.

THE REPUBLICANS are not satisfied
with the support of all the negroes in
the country, but must have that of all
the Indians also. The democratic con-
gressional committee has received from
an Indian official copies OF a circular by
a Carlisle Indian School graduate, sent
out to secure the votes Of the sons oil
the forest for the rough rider The
circular says:
The National Indian Republican AS
ISOLATION has been formed for the pur-
pose of bringing every Indian man over
81 years OF age enjoying the right OF
suffrage, or who may acquire that right,
and who believes in the principles OF
tbs republican party, into an orgHni'
cation to which he may become interest
ed in the affairs of the government, local
and national.
The plan of organizing ourselves was
first submitted 10 the Commissioner OF
Indian Affairs, and with his approval
aud encouragement the work was begun.
There will be circular letters sent to
each Indian asking him to join the as
ISOLATION. A circular will also be sent
you.
/ believe this is agreat work, if done
we'll. 1t will be hard at first to get them
interested, but it seems to me now Is the
time to make the beginning, while some
of them are enthusiastic over the COM
ing presidential campaign.
Twelve years ago, just before the
presidential election in 1892, so fearful
were the republicans that the democrats
would beat them in one of their own
mountain Businesses, North Dakota, they
had Secretary Noble, ofthe Interior, under
President Harrison, hurry the distri-
button Of lands in seyeralty in that
State, in order that the Indian holders
of such lands would be entitled to vote
in the presidential election of that year,
as il had been arranged to vote everyone
of them to the last man for the republican
nominees, Harrison aud Reed. Finding
that majority of the white voters have
discarded them the republicans rely
for success on negroes and Indians,
and doubtless regret they cannot vote the
Chinese and Igorrotes.

Older Than Indians.

Rutland, VT, Oct lS.-The body of
the petriied woman found in Washing
ton recently is declared by Professor
Charles II. Richardson, of Dartmouth
College, to be discovery of great value.
Professor Richardson says the body rep
resents race that inhabited America
before the advent of the Indian. In
shape the head is unlike that of any
known people of today. The cheek bones
are high and prominent, and the FORE
head slopes back rapidly, the distance
from the eyebrows to the crown being
seven inches. Height of the body is 8
feet 10 inches, and in its petrifed state
it weighs $50 pounds. Scars on the
body dispose the professor to think that
the woman was murdered and dismem-
bered. The head appears to have teen
cut off, for the vertebrae protrude and
are clearly visible. The optic nerve
shows plainly in both eye sockets. The
body is brittle and light in col or.

Cause Of LOckiaw.

Lockj&w, or tetanus, is caused by a
bacillus or germ which exists plentituliy
in street dirt. II is inactive so long as
exposed to the air, but when carried be-
meath the skin, as in the wounds caused
by percussion caps or by rusty nails, and
when the air is excluded the germ is
reused to activity and produces the most
yirulent poison known. These germs
may be destroyed and all danger of lock-
Jaw avoided by applying Chamberlain's
