CASE IS DISMISSED

Litigation concerning the purchase Of
the Home Life building, at the corner
of Fifteenth and @ streets northwest, by
Stilson Hutchins, IN November last, was
today dismissed by Chief Justice Ga
baugh. The litigation grew out OF the
fact that the former owners Of the
building Tiyssowski Brothers, were un-
able 20 give 10 HUtchins an unencum-
bered deed to the property. The pur-
chase price agreed upon was 100000
and Mr. Hutchins paid the necessary de-
posit but was never allowed to make
good the balance. The owners could not
give an unencumbered title. as there
was a ten years lease on the property

NO CONTEST IS THOUGHT PROBABl
Jerome Said to Have Doubted Prl,
oner's Responsibility From
the Outset.

New York-The trial of Hard
Kendall Thaw for the killing Of Stan
ford White, which has been set fol
January 6, is likely to come to a sud
den close through admission by tho
defense that the defendant Is insane
was insane at the time of the shoot
Ing, and always was insane. II this
plea Is accepted Thaw will be sent I'd
the Mattewan asylum.
1t Is not believed that District At
torney Jerome will raise any objec
ton to this course. 1t was known
early In the trial last spring that he
had grave doubts Of the prisoners
sanity at that time, and toward Its
close he stopped the proceedings by
declaring his conviction that Thaw
was at that moment incompetent men
tally to plead before a Jury. He was
still prepared to argue that on the
night Of the tragedy he was sane, al
though from his prolonged examina
ton Of the alienists of the defense II
was believed that of even that he was
not sure.
II Thaw Is committed to Mattewan
as insane at the time of the killing
he will remain there until 1t is de
clared upon authoritative grounds
that he is sane. He cannot be tried
aagin for the killing.

KILLED BETWEEN 200 AND
$50 MINERS.
THIRTEEN BODIES TAKEN OUT
Fallen Roof Delays Rescue Work-Ail
Corpses Removed Are Terribly
Mutilated and Three of Them
Are Hesdless.

Jacobs Creek, Pam explosion of
gas in the Darr mine of the Pittsburg
Coal Co., located here, Thursday en-
tombed between 200 and ESQ miners
and there is scarcely a ray of hope
that a single one of them will be
taken alive from the mine. Partially
wrecked buildings in the vicinity of
the mine and the condition of the few
bodies indicate an explosion of such
terrific force that it seems impossible
that any M could have survived it.
All of the thirteen bodies taken out
up to this time are terribly mutilated
and three of them are headless.
This is the third mine disaster since
the first of the month in the veins of
bituminous coal underlying Western
Pennsylvania and West Virginia, for
the Naomi mine near Fayette and the
two mines at Monongah are in the
same belt as the local workings.
