Capt. Mark Cole, master OF the

in the case OF the government
against the Fowler for misconduct on
her trip down the Mississippi. The

charge. II Is believed that The eyi.
dence addueed will not be sufficient
TO hold any officer Of the Fowler liza
Bile. A popular impression Is that
the charges are against Captain Cole
personally when they are against the
boat and the Investigation will be to
find out who. II any one was guilty
of misconduct. The final hearing
will be had at Cairo. the date for
which has not been set.
The fact that the government does
not pay mileage or per diem TO Wit
ness for the defense in trials OF
charges OF misconduct mas caused
river men to start movement to
get the law or ruling changed and a
rite issued that will. at least, pay
witnesses mileage The government

JOHN K. HENDRICK
LED HIS TICKET
BUT is DEFEATED

81 am glad it's all over" was the
expression that came from almost ev-
cry professional man visited by re-
porter on his usual rounds this morn
ing when the election was mentioned.
A majority expressed themselves as
satisfied with the outcome, while as
one attorney expressed it, 81 did not
get what | voted for, yet the more
think of the result the better l like
it."
Some interest was given the stu
alton last night by a telegram to
Hon. John X. Hendrick from Henry
B. Hines to the effect that while
Hager was defeated by large ma
jority. the rest of the ticket might
pull through. Col. Hendrick smiled
as he read the telegram, but did not
give credence to the information II
contained.
81 am sure that / led the ticket
and Hager fell behind all, yet | am
satisfied that l am defeated" said
Inc.
Colonel Hendrick is much gratified
by the vote he received and takes his
defeat philosophically. About the
only regret expressed by Paducah
Democrats is that Mr.. Hendrick was
defeated.
Almost universal opinion is that
Gov. Beckham was to a lsrge extent
responsible for the defeat of the
ticket and many prominent Demo
Gratis are outspoken in the opinion
that he should be defeated In his
race for the United States senate. Ii
