M'CUE'S LAST HOPE GONE
The Virginia Supreme Court Refuses a
Writ Of Error.
pROPRlETY JURORS READING PAPERS.
Former Mayor Of Charlottesville. Who Murder
ed His Wbc, Must Hang on February 10
Summary Of Decision Of Highest Court
Of State on Supplemental Petition Filed by
Mcue's Lawyers.


Richmond, Va, (Speciai) Tie Su-
preme Court Of Appeals refused the sup
Elemental petition OF McCue's lawyers
for a writ of error in his case, and, in
all probability, this decision settles the
doom OF the condemned man.
This closes all hope OF judicial aid,
and only the Governor has power to
change his fate. That the Governor will
Interfere in little thought, and McCue
will likely nang February 10, the cXpira-
ton of his respite.
The decision of the Supreme Court is
contained in the following summary:
In obedience to the mandate OF the
statute and in strict accordance with es-
tablshed precedent, having given careful
consideration to the petitions aud record,
and being of opinion thai no error IS
shown to the prejudice OF the accused,
we abide by the order entered at a
former day OF the term and deny writ
OF error
1t is rare that the Supreme Court
hands down detail of opinion upon
the refusal OF petition for writ OF
error; but in this case, because OF its
peculiar character, the court ,akes up
and discusses the assignments OF error
at length, answers the discussions OF
counsel and expounds the law in the
case.

With a deep sigh of relief Armstrong
sheathed his sword and lifted his hat

his chair and paced twice up and down
the long room between the great MOON

in his march, looked up at the dim gal

"Cobb, come down"
To Armstrong; amazement, who
thought he had been alone with the
general, he heard lurching heavy steps
come dumping down the wooden stair,
and trooper, with primed musket in
his hand, stood before his master.
"Cobb, why did you not shoot this
