 The best thing that has been accom- plished.s' said Mir. t5odchaux. ifs the taking away the fear from the people. They no longer fear yellow fever as they did. This has been accomplish cd by educating them hygenically.
 The yallow fever Scare has done a great deal for New Orleans in the way of sanitation Yellow Fever is not caused by uncieanfiness but the fact that many persons thought SO has helped Eo make New Orleans q much cleaner place than it was
 "when we get the people outside of the State to realize that we have con- uuered the fever.

HARGIS DENIES ALL
TAKES THE STAND IN HIS OWN
 BEHALF.
Had No Intimation, He skeara, That HIarcum Was to be Killed Did Not Give Feltner
 Money.

Beattyvilie, Ky, July t2-Former Judge James Harsis, charged with the murder of Lawyer James B. Marcum. was the principal witness today in the case of the State against Hargis and Callahan. Hargis. who was the story of his life in Breathitt county and how he had risen from poor boy to man of wealth and position.
 He described his whereabouts when Marcum was shot. He saw Tom White come out of the door of the court house just before the shots were fired. Witness said he had no intimation that Marcum was to be killed; and said he had never spoken to Curtis Jett or any other man with reference to the killing of Marcum or any other per son. He said Nose Feltner never re- ceived any money from him not to tes- tify against him. He said Feltner want ed him to prepare aff1davits for sam Feltner and Russell Sutton. hut that he declined to do so.
 Hargis said the statement of Asbury spicer was absolutely false. Tn fact, witness said no conversation ever oe- cured between him and. others with reference to Marcum.
 Hargis referred to commonwealth witnesses as "fioaters's and men who lurked around town and 1t was neces- sary for the court to admonish Harris on several occasions, and Instruct the jury not to consider such testimony.
 Hargis reflected several times on the character of Attorney Adams and Judge Dorsey sent the jury from the room while Adams took the defendant over the rack. Attorney Young, for the defense, objected to this. but the court ruled that Hargfs had made a serious reflection against the common wealth's attorney and he believed Adams should be permitted to defend himself.
 Hargis was questioned by Attorney Byrd on cross examination He said he had no ill feeling against Marcum as a result of the contested election cases, but he said they never spoke after the indictment for criminal libel was returned against Marcum. He did not secure an indictment against Feltner because he did not feel that Feltner could islander any one.
