New York, July 11.--A man, who de-
scribed himself as James SteIlman, en-
gineer, "a years old, of Brooklyn, was

Beattyville, Ken, July II. - Testi-
mony bordering on the sensational was
heard in the trial of former Judge Har-

Nose Feltner testified that after filing

that Hargis, Callahan and French.
came to see him in Leslie county, and
asked him to leave the county and not
testify in the case. He said they later
came to him in Winchester and did
get him to go to Ohio and remain un-

Attorney Joustt introduced check
for 5000 which Feltner claims was Civ

which he turned over to the attorneys
for Mrs. Marcum without getting 1T
cashed. This was a severe blow to
the defense and was permitted to be
introduced over their vigorous protests

Assassins Got Busy After
Chouknin.
HE is In THE HOSPITAL AGAIN
A SECOND ATTEMPT MADE TO AS
SAssINATE ADMIRAL cHouK-
MIN; THE BRUTAL COMMANDER
OF THE RUSSIAN BLACK SEA
SQUADRON.

Sebastopol, July 11.-An attempt was
made at / o'clock this afternoon to as
sassinate Vice Admiral Chouknin
commander of the Black sea fleet. The
admiral was wounded and taken to
hospital.
Vice Admiral Chouknin has been
blamed for his severity. and it was to
his treatment of the crews of the ships
under his com rand that the mutiny on
board the battleship Kniaz Potemkine
in June and July last year was attri-
buted.
The admiral displayed considerable
activity in attempting to capture the
mutineers at that time and in sup
pressing the sailors mutiny at Sebas-
topol in November
The attempt was made on the life
of the admiral Feb. last A woman
appeared at his official residence dur
ing the afternoon of that day, and
sent in her card saying she was a
daughter of AZ rear admiral at st. Pc
tersburg, who was an old acquaintance
of Chouknin. On entering the admir-
ais office, the woman drew rapid fire
pistol and fired four shots at him. each
bullet reaching the mark. AS she turn
ed to escape the woman was killed by
an orderly on duty at Chouknin's door
step. The crime. beyond doubt, was
political
When the sentences imposed on the
sailors Of the Kniaz Potemlxine for

review d formal notice was served on
him that If he imposed sentences he
would share the same fate.
Chouknin. however, approved the
sentences and several intimations aft

the terrorists were merely waiting for
a favorable opportunity to kill him.

This declaration was made by Pierre.
Adam to the prison authorities and
the lawyers, who were trying to per-
suade him to appeal for the commuta-
ton of his death sentence for muir
der
he has resisted the persuasIons per-
sistently for three weeks and cIamor-
to have his head cut off, yet the au-
thorities do not comply with his wish.
The position is a curious one. AS the
law stands 1t prescribes that execu-
tions shall be public, but since the
guillotine was moved some years ago
from the notorious place Della Rou-
quette, the local officials everywhere
have successfully resisted the at
tempts TO secure a new site and the
guillotine has lain idle i'm a shed, the
officers of justice not venturlng to Of
fend any part of the city by insisting
upon its erection.
They have consequently persuaded
every person condemned to death to
appeal for a commutation which has
been forthwith granted.
Adams unprecedented refusal Greats
a difficulty. A public execution in
variably leads to a disgusting carousal
and misbehavior by scum Of the city
and the establishment of the guillo-
tine anywhere without the assent of
the authorities representing the res
pectable citizens would inevitably
arouse anger, hence the reluctance to
carry out the death sentence.

Insurgents Busy.
The insurgents found this afternoon
that the plan not to have candidates
would be futile one, as they needed
some one to rally around, and they be-
gan at once to talk M. N. Johnson
tor governor. Later some of the insllr-
gent workers were talking favoraEly
to Stockwell as what they regarded as
compromise" candidate for povef-
nor. This was done to make inroads
INTO the Walsh county delegation.

ana can be won from the regulars
The insurgents claim they had 2dS
delegates signed up and would make
some kind of deal to land enough
to control the convention.
The regulars credit the insurgents
with 13O to 134 delegates.
Everything points to the indisput
able fact that the insurgents are los
ing ground in the convention. While
some of the more radical talk fight"
and make unreasonable claims, the
majority of the delegates elected upon
a so-called insurgent platform are not
taking any such stand

standing by him in the convention and

/ ing, general laugh went up among

asked, who is this Spalding YOU are
looking for"' and the nervous indi-
Vldual moved on apparently glad to

instance l have noted where any one
| was looking for Mr.. Spalding, (at
this convention at least.)
The probable candidate for governor
on the insurgent ticket, il such tick
ct exists, will be Frank Lynch of Cas-
selton. 1t is understood that a COM
plimentary ballot is to be given him
as he has many friends and the con-
fidence of the insurgent following.
IL. c. Chambers of Kidder county
was conspicuous today wearing the
only independent" badge worn by a
delegate at the convention. Mr.
Chambers has blue penciled the words
independent" upon a white badge and
wears it with much show of satisfac-
ton.
Fhis afternoon the jamestown Fair
association will hold the race matinee
mentioned in these dispatches and a
large attendance is expected. A ball
game between Jamestown and La
Moure is also scheduled for the
amusement of the guests.
The convention will be called to Or
der tomorrow morning at II o'clock
by Chairman Hanna when the work of
placing names in nomination will be
taken up at once. Every detail for
tomorrow seems well carried out and
the city is certainly taking excellent
care of it's guests.

About fifty were present at first.
Several wearing Sarles badges were
discovered by Johnson, who called for
a vacating of the room by all not in
