JUDGE LOVING ACQUITTED.
Jury Was Out Only Forty-five Min
utes-Verdict Not Surprise.

Houston. Va, June 29-After be-
in in the jury room 45 minutes the
jury this evening returned a verdict
Of not guilty in the case of former
Judge William G.. Loving of Nelson
county and manager Of the Virginia
estate Of Thomas F. Ryan, who was
placed on trial here last Monday be-
fore the circuit court Of Halifax,
Judge William r. Barksdale presid-
ing, for the murder Of Theodore Es-
tes, son of Sheriff NJ K. Estes of Mel
son county. Judge Loving shot and
killed youns; Estes on April % at Oak
Ridge, following buggy ride Estes
had taken with the judges daughter,
Miss Elizabeth Loving, who told her
father that her escort had drugged
and assaulted her.
The jury retired at 4.45 o'clock aad
from that time until the verdict was
returned the defendant remained in
the seat he had occupied since the
trial began and surrounded by the
members of his immediate family
with the exception Of his daughter,
Elizabeth, who was not present today.
At 5.45 o'clock a loud knock was
heard on the door of the jury room
and Judge Barksdale, who had taken
his seat on the bench, ordered the
sheriff to preserve order and caution
ed the large crowd that had remained
not to give vent to their emotions
when the verdict was announced. The
verdict of accuittal was read by Fore
man B. S. McCraw.
Judge Barkslale thanked the jurors
for their attendance upon court at
great sacrifices He declared that he
believed the verdict was in accordance
with the conscientious views of the
jury.
After the jury had been polled
Judge Loving, MS wife and other rel
atives shook hands with and thanked
each juror.
Tears streamed from the eyes of
the defendant and his wife. Judge
Loving was congratulated by many Of
his friends present, though in accord
with the warning Of Judge Barksdale
there was no noisy demonstration.
Foreman McCraw, merchant and
farmer, said that when the jurors en-
tered the room one Of them did not
exactly understand all Of the instruc-
tons Of the court and these were read
to him. Mr.. McCraw said that when
he called for a vote and requested all
who favored the acquittal Of the de-
fesndant to hold up their right hands.
On the first ballot every hand prompt
ly went up. When asked What the
basis Of the verdict was he said Gin
sanity and that he and the other
members of the jury believed that
Judge Loving was out Of his mind at
the time he killed young Estes. The
stress, he said, had been brought by
the story told him by his daughter.

EXPRESS COMPANIES AS BANKS.
Important Complaint Filed With the
Commerce Commission by National
Banking Association.

Washington, June 2S.-One of the
most important cases yet fled with
the interstate commerce commission
under the new railroad rate law was
presented to the commission today by
the American Bankers ASSOCIATE tion.
In brief the complainant alleges that
the express companies of the United
States, through their power and Ia
cilities as common carriers, are US
urping the prerogatives of banking
associations, and at the same time are
employing the capital Of the banks OF
the country in the conduct of their
business. 1t is alleged that the ope-
rations Of the express companies in
the conduct Of their exchange busi-
ness is seriously detrimental to the IN
terests Of the banks, and that the use
of the interstate facilities and the re-
lations which the express companies
have with the railroads enable the
companies seriously to discriminate
against regular commercial opera
tons Of banking institutions.
The complaint is directed against
the Adams Express Company, the Uni
ted States Express Company, the
American Express Company, the Pa.
cifc Express Company, the Wells
Fargo Company, the Southern Ex-
press Company and the Great North.

THE PRESIDENTS PISTOL.
A Bad Example to Garry Weapon
Says Boston Traveller.

That the president OF the United
States uses the rear pocket which
1nost citizens give up to key ring or
pocket handkerchief. or if they come
from no license" towns occasionally
tc. a flask, to carry al ugly looking
revolver of imposing size and un-
doubted death-dealing quality has
been demonstrated several times.
Some months ago Mr.. Roosevelt paid
visit to the immigration station at
New York to preach to the incoming
aliens on the virtues Of self-restraint
and obedience to law, etc. AS he
stepped down the ladder from the tug
Irritation and careless breeze dis
closed the butt Of a huge shooting
iron. The presidential visit did not,
however, bring about the repeal Of
the rule in vogue generally at imni-
grant stations, that deadly weapons
shall be taken from incoming
aliens, as their possession has been
shown to tend to disorder and Lead to
murder. Last Saturday the president
made the address at the laying Of a,
Masonic corner stone. AS the Masonic
Official in charge fastened the apron
of the order about the place where
the presidential waist once was, he
clumsi!y parted the presidential coat
tails, revealing to the crowd what was
probably the same shooter that ac-
cempanied Mr.. Roosevelt to Ellis
Island, and which appears to be his
constant companion. The speech
which followed was, as usual, elo-
ouent in its appeal to brother love
and the observance Of the fraternal
objects Of the organization. At time
when the authorities Of all the large
cities are united in the effort to en-
force the laws prohibiting the carry
ing Of deadly weapons, such an exhi-
bition is giving the very worst posi-
be- example. What parent can argue
successfully with his boy that it is
wrong to carry revolver when the
boy can crush the old man by simply
asking him to read the papers? With
such a model in the high place. how
can we teach the aliens that to do
likewise is wrong? We wonder why
he does it? A six-shooter in the.
presidential stern pocket viii not
ward off an attack, while the fact
that it is carried there is at once an
excuse and an invitation to anarchy

NEW TRIAL REFUSED KENNY.
Chief Justice Pope Denies Appeal Of
the Defense.

Chief Justice Pope Denies Appeal OF
the Defense.
Columbia, June 2S.-In an opinion
filed today the supreme court refused
a new trial, for George Kenny, the
negro cnvicted last fall at Charleston
Of the murder OF Changing Guard
Herman G. Stello. Kenny will hang
unless the pardon board intervenes,
which it is not likely to do. Kenny,
Harman Wilson and Alonzo Goodwin
formed conspiracy to escape, and
when Stello handed in some water to
them Goodwin and Wilson seized him
and Kenny cut his throat.
The opinion, which is written by
Chief Justice Pope, states that when
the case first came up for trial D. B.
Summers, a negro lawyer employed
by the defense, sent word he was sick
and could not represent Kenny,
-whereupon the court appointed Wha-
ley & Bissell. At the term following.
however, Summers appeared and took
charge Of it Grace & Logan appeal

ing employed by friends Of Kenny's

Sensible Girl.

The subject, Beyond the Alps Lies
Italy" was recently assigned to a
Kansas girl graduate. The following
was the result: 81 don't care a cent
whether Italy lies beyond the Alps or
in Missouri. I do not expect to set
the river on fire with my future ca
reer. I am glad that I have very
good education, but I am not going
to misuse it by writing poetry or es-
says on the future woman. It will
enable me to correct the grammar Of
any lover I may have, should he
speak Of 'dorgs' in my presence or
seen a man. It will also come handy
when I want to figure out how many
pounds Of soap woman can get for
three dozen eggs at the grocery. So
I do not begrudge the time I spent
ACQUIRING it. But my ambition does
net fly so high. I just want to marry
a man who can run an 80-acre farm
and who has no female relatives to
come around and try to boss the
ranch. 1 will agree TO cook dinners
fer him that won't send him to an
early grave, and lavish upon him a
wholesome affection. and to see that
his razor has not been used to cut
broom wire when he wants to shave.
In view of all this do not care if I
get a little rusty on the rule Of three
and kindred things as the years go
by."-Kansas City Journal.
