Jury Quickly ACquits Both
of the Defendants in the
Marcum Case.
VERDICT A SUMNER.
Foreman Of the Jury Had
Formed and Expressed
Opinion.

Beattyville, KY, July 1.-THE
jury in the Hargis-Callahan trial for
the murder of Jas. B. Marcnm,
brought in a verdict of not guilty
after thirteen minutes deliberation
this morning. The nature of the
verdict fairly stunned those in the
courtroom. Mrs. Marcum sobbed
pitifully, her slender frame shaking
with emotion. Attorney Floyd Byrd
was too stunned to give out a state
ment. The defendants themselves
shock hands with their friends, but
it did not seem to occur to them to
thank the jurors.
Mr.. Adams in his closing speech
last night made his plea to the jurors
so personal not to allow sympathy
NOR any other influence to waver
them" that many persons in the
courtroom believed he was intimat-
ing to them that he heard suspicious
rumors. In fact rumors have pre-
vailed.
0. j. Barnett, the foreman of the
jury, said in the beginning that he
had both formed and expressed
opinions. Both sides took him,
knowing that he was cleared of a
murder charge in Breathitt in a case
which appeared to be plain self-de-
Tense. Jim Marcum was his attor-
ney, and Jim Hargis, it is said, rem
dered most valuable assistance.
Newspaper men who have attended
all the Marcum murder trials say the
case against Hargis and Callahan
was far stronger than was ever the
case against Curt Jet and White.
Ends a Long Fight.
The verdict of not guilty in the
Marcum trial is the elimination of a
long and bitter fight in the courts in
an attempt to convict James Hargis
and Ed Callahan as chief conspira-
tors in one of the darkest crimes in
Kentucky's history. James B. Mar
cum was mountain republican law
yer of excellent standing. He was
engaged three years ago as an at
torney in the contest against Hargis
and Callahan. respectively, Demo
cratic County Judge and Sheriff
elect, to Oust them from their offices
on an allegation of a corrupt cleo
ton. Much bitterness was aroused
and frequent ruptures occurred. In
May, 1903, Marcam was shot to death
from behind in the jackson court
house. Curt Jet and Tom White
were convicted and given life SEN
fences for the murder. 1t was
charged that they were the tools of
Hargis and others. Jett,
after his conviction, confessed that
he shot Marcum, and that his act
was inspired by Callahan and Hargis.
On the witness stand. however, he
the confession and said |
hat he alone was responsible. The |
lcquittal followed largely on this
population.
A jury of Clark county citizens re-
,urned a verdict for $4,000 damages
year ago against Hargis on the ale
cation that he had caused Marcum
o be killed. The suit was filed by
Mrs. Marcum. Hargis and Callahan
re yet to be tried in the Lexington
curt for the killing of James Cock
ell under similar circumstances.
