L0vingstOn, Va, May 26.-With the
'Funwritten law" as his defense, Judge
w. G. Loving, manager Of the Ryan es.
tate, will he brought to trial today for
the murder of Theodore Estes on April
"a last.
The accused will assert his motive for
the crime that Estes drugged aud wrong
ed his young daughter, Elizabeth, re-
puted TO be one of the. most beautiful
girls 10 Virginia.
Ga the afternoon of April p Estes
aud the girl went for buggy ride. When
they returned late that night Miss Low
ing, It is said, was supplied with drink.
Estes said she had asked him for drink
of whisky. 1t is said that Miss LOvlug's
version Of the occurrence is that Estes
invited her to drink the whisky, and
that she remembered nothing more until
she awoke to find herself in bed at the
homo of I. w. Kidd, whose guest she
had been when Estes invited her for a
ride. For two days Miss Loving remain
ed OF the Kidd home aud then returned
TO the Loving house. 1t is said she made
statement to her father, the nature of
watch caused Judge Loving to take his
shotgun and go in search of Estes, and
upon meeting him, without word Of
warning, shot him through tho head and
breast.
The Loving faction claim that Judge
Loving did right in killing Estes, while
on the other hand Estes friends claim
that in killing Estes Judge Loving
avenged a wrong never committed; that
he acted with undue haste, failing to
take the proper precautions to ascertain
the truth before starting out on his err
rant OF vengeance.
Though not Openly admitted, il is be-
lieged that Miss Loving will be the prin
cipal witness for her father, and it is
stated that she will go on the stand and
tell of the wrongs committed on her
by Estes and will bear out the judges
contention that he killed Estes Sin a
case involving the honor OF woman
hood"
The ckief counsel for the accused will
be "Jack" Lee, the Lynchburg lawyer
who successful defended the Strother
boys. He is a fighter, and his repula-
ton, when the "unwritten law" is in
yolved, is high throughout the country.

The FALL in railroad stocks and the
rise in prices Of grain are causing con-
siderable comment. The Philadelphia
Record says: Prices of railroad shares
aud Of staple commodities play see.saw.
When one goes up the other goes down.
A prospect Of a short crop sends wheat
or corn or cotton up. But a short crop
means less business for the railroads, so
the same crop indications send the
prices of shares down.

TUESDAY EVENING. MAY Is, 1907.

REPORTS come from Chicago that the
railroads may discharge between so, 200
and 100, 900 men by the end Of the first
week in June. This does not take into
account the large number of .dismissals
because Of extensions and other improve
ments abandoned. Orders were recent
" issued for the strictest economy and
The reduction of forces to the lowest
possible point. The New York Central
is to reduce some pay-rolls fully one
third. if the order were carried out
literally in all departments, 30, 600 en-
ployees on this system alone would be
discharged. The heaviest cuts will be
in the operating departments, shops and
among the clerks. A number of men
employed in the Southern Railway chops
in this city have been laid off during the
past few weeks, and it is rumored that
the bulk Of repair work is to be done in
future at Monroe and at other places on
the line Of the road. The railroad com
pauies are giving certain reasons for
these wholesale discharges, none Of
which seems to be the real cause. 1t is
said by some officials that the object is
to ourtail expenses during the coming
summer when traffic, they say, is light,
notwithstanding the fact that the roads
are tsxed to their greatest capacity dur
ing the summer to move fruits and
vegetables, and fertilizer at the close Of
the summer.

THIS is tie year of the "thirieer
wear" locust and the southern and west
ern States are likely to be Overrun with
the insect, according to the Department
Of Agriculture. AS comfort to farmers,
however, the department has issued q
statement saying, among other things,
that fear for the safety of shade trees
and orchards from the pest is unwar-
rauted. The actual damage is slight, &C
cording TO the department, in the case Of
newly planted orchards and nurseries.
Trees thoroughly sprayed with a lime
wash are apt 10 be immune. The most
reliable method of protecting nurseries
is by collecting the insects in bags OF
umbrellas from the trees in early morn
Ing or late evening, when they are some

brood relates to its occurrence in 1908
and it has been recorded at every thir-
teen year period since that year to the
