PAYS PENALTY ON GALLOWS

senic were found in the stomach.
Search was made for Hoch and he
was finally discovered in New York,
where his landlady, Mrs. Kimberly,
reported that she believed her
boarder TO be Hoch, because he had
proposed marriage to her on the day
of his arrival in her house. He was
arrested and later brought to Chi
cago.
Hoch, after being placed in Jail
here. admitted that he had been mar
ried thirteen times, but always deni-
ed that he had caused the death of
any of his wives. He was placed on
trial April 10, and on May 90 the
jury returned a verdict finding him
guilty of murder, and fixing the pun
ishment at death. On June 8, sem
tenee was passed on him, the date
of execution being set for june %.
Governor Deneen granted him a re-
prieye until July 2S. Within one
hour of the time set for his execution
Hoch was given a second respite un-
til August %. Before this date ar
rived, however, the supreme court
Of the state granted a snperseoeas to
permit of the consideration of his
case by the court. On December IA
the court handed down decision
affirming the verdict in the lower
court, and fixing the date of execu-
tion for Feb. %.
The last effort made hy Hoch to-
secure a new trial endedon February
q when Governor Deneen, and the
board Of pardons refused to inter
fere in his behalf. II was alleged
before the board, by Mrs. Fischer
Hoch, that she had been so bounded
by the police that she had commit
ted perjury during the trial, and
that much Of the evidence which she
had given against Hocll, was not
true. A physician also declared
that the death Of Mrs. Welcker-
Hoch had been caused by kidney
disease, and not by arsenical poison
ing. On eross-examination before
the board, however, he admitted that
he had not made a post-mortem ex-
animation of the body Of Mrs.
Weleker-Hoch, while three physi-
clans who had conducted such an
examination declared that death
was caused by arsenic.

SHOT BY ROBBERS
George WelCh Fired on by
Thieves, Who Were After
His Corn.

DUNLAP, Tenn, Feb. S.-George
Welch, well to do young farmer, liv-
ing three miles east of here, was shot
and seriously wounded by unknown
parties Tuesday night in his own barn
yard.
Young Welch had just returned from
church, and on going to his barn to
put up his horse, noticed his crib door
standing open. He started to shut it,
when he was fired on three times by
someone in the crib. Two of the shots
were from pistol and went wild; the
third was from shotgun and struck
Welch in the face and breast. The
shot were small and it is thought that
he will recover
Sheriff Shipp, of Chattanooga, was
at once telephoned and requested to
send bloodhounds, which were dis
patched at once, arriving on the scene
about noon yesterday. The dogs at
once caught the trail, and before night
the officers had taken into custody Jim
Cain, who was brought to Dunlap and
lodged in jail. The dogs also trailed
to the house of another party, who
could not be found.
That the first intent of the parties
was only theft is sustained by the fact
that they left three sacks filed with
corn A brother of the assaulted man,
who was only a short distance from
him when the shooting occurred, state;
that he saw three men leave the barr
in the moonlight, but could not tel
positively who they were. Cain lived
across the field from Welch.
The other parties concerned will bt
arrested as soon as they can be found.
