WAS FOUND DEAD
The Death of Charles M. Whitman
Prominent MassiIlon Merchant.

Charles NJ. Whitman. D. prominent
clothing merchant Of Massillon, and
one of the best known merchants in
the western part of Stark county, was
found dead in his barn near the family
residence at Massillon, in East South
street, at IL o'clock Tuesday. Heart
disease, with complication of stom-
ach and kidney trouble, is supposed
to have been the cause of death.
He did not come to the store Tues
day morning but remained about the
home with the expectation of super
vising some brick laying in his barn.
He went to the barn and was seen
engaged in light work by members Of
the family from the rear of the house.
Being anxious concerning his condi-
tion, they watched his actions closely
and when at IL o'clock they did not
open doorway, Mrs. Whitman and a
daughter went to the barn and found
his lifeless body.
The body was found lying on the
floor partly upon the back. 1t was
evident that Mr.. Whitman had not
besn working for some time before
death as he had evidently been rest
ing some distance from the place
where the tools were placed.
Mr. Whitman was born in Canal Full
ton 81 years ago and spent his boy
hood days on farm. The deceased
is survived by wife, four daughters,
the Misses Mamie, Ollie, Laura and
Helen, and three sons, Herbert, Ira
and Raymond Whitman.

oil egresS was Dy the passage In which
he stood. Though she, with back to-
ward her, leaned as far over the rail
as he could, and though she, with her
face toward the wall, strained away
from her husband, the crowd pressed
them together, and they came into lit
eral contact for the frst time since the
alleged face-slapping and skirt-tearing
soiree at Fort Leavenworth at 1 a. m,
July /, 1908.
Mrs. Taggart had remained in the
city clerks Office, adjoining, until her
name was called. She entered accom-
panied by her sister. Dressed in a
white dimity gown, and with her hair
deliberately coiffured, she looked the
debutante-all but the face. Her
rouged cheeks could not dissemble the
dark hollows under the eyes. She
spoke throughout in low but distinct
tones.
She had never gone to Koch's saloon
with her two sons, as Rope had testi-
fed, had never said to the bartender,
Give me three beers" and had not
she said, given beers to tie children.
81 have never even seen q glass of
beer since came to Wooster" she
added.
She admitted having drunk with
Lieut.. Fortesque, nephew of Mrs.
Roosevelt, at Fort Leavenworth.
IL have drunk nothing for about two
years." she said
Parenthetically, Major Taggart also
says he has drunk no intoxicants for
two years. The final quarrel at Fort
Leavenworth was two years ago last
month.
The other witnesses for the prosecu-
ton were w. E. Weygandt, attorney,
and Miss Ella Landers, court steno-
grapher, who said they had heard Rope
testify that Mrs. Taggart bought beer
for herself and children at Kochs July
10, and Charles Heffelfnger, the bar
tender. The last named, known as
Hazel" emphatically denied that the
alleged incident ever occurred.
The afternoon session of the divorce
trial yesterday was duller by far than
its offshoot, the perjury hearing. No
important testimony was offered.
BUSTER AND TIDDLES NOT TO
TESTIFY.
Wooster, O., Aug. s.-Buster and
Tiddles are to be kept out of the Tag
CART case, so far as appearing in the
court room is concerned.
1t had been the intention of the de-
fense to call them as witnesses in their
mothers behalf.
Captain Taggart had voluntarily
pledged his wifes lawyers that the
children would not be crOss-examined;
that whatever they said would not be
questioned, and that no witnesses
would be put on in rebuttal of their
childish testimony. This concession
resulted Tuesday in an amicable
agreement between the attorneys on
both sides that the children should not

The boys failed to keep an appoint
