SPEEDING cHAuFFEURs.
Epeed Law Regarded as Joke by Some Drivers. 5.

Unless the police step in and com bel owners of automobiles to comply swith the law which states that tue 6peed limit within the city shall be Twelve miles an hour some fatalities hre likely to occur In the near fu- Eure. Indeed 1t is something wonder Full that no persons have as yet lost
 heIr lives because of the reckless $less of some of Waterbury's chauf- Eeurs.
 Though it is dangerous enough to speed machines along the highways which are not alive with people and Fehlcles at almost any hour of the May, the practice of sending the flyers hlong the main streets at pace which far exceeds the speed limit
 hould be stopped. And the only way 10 stop It in the opinion of those who lave given the matter any considcra-
 ion is to bring the offenders before
 he court. There are few machines |n town. and their chauffeurs evident " regard the speed law as only joke For they send their gasolene wagons

APPEAL IS FILED.
Apothecarjes' Hall Case Now Goes to
 the Superior Court.

The fight for the controlling inter- ests in the Apothecaries' Hall Go was started on It's way to the superior court to-day, Attorney c. c. Root filing the appeal from the decision of Judge R. A. Lowe in the probate court in denying the application of Mrs S. P. Williams to sell the 40s shares of stock in bulk. The claim of Mrs Williams and of her side of the controversy is that to sell or dis tribute the 409 shares in any other way but in block would depreciate their value. At the hearing on the motion to sell thestock Franklyn A. Taylor, the trustee, testified that he had received from A. E. Rice and his mother. Mrs Helen Rice, an offer of $100,000 for the stock and the offer would remain for thirty days. That period has passed.
 If Mrs Williams's application was granted 1t would mean the freezing out of I. P. Kellogg. who is president and manager of the concern.

Loving Set
Free By Jury
"UNWRITTEN LAW" THE MAIN
PLEA AND ON THAT HE WAS
ACQUITTED.

HOUSTON, Va, July 1.-Judge VII,
liam C. Loving, accused of numbering
Theodore I. Estes, was acquitted Sat
urday night. He gains his liberty I'M
der the 'unwritten law"
The case went to the jury at 1850.
The verdict was returned at 5:45,
Judge Loving was almost apathetic
during the So minutes wait.
even if I'm acquitted, my life is
blasted" he said, despondently. Yet
his look was one of intense relief as
the verdict was announced. His
friends had not waited SO calmly.
They whispered anxiously together
and his wife often murmured encour.
agingly to him.
When the foreman had spoken the
words "Not guilty" Loving's frienls
made a rush or him, cheering in de-
light. Judge Loving and his wife were
both in tears as they acknowledged
the congratulations showered on them.
Miss Elizabeth Loving, to whose
testimony the acquittal of her father
is due, was not in the court room
when the verdict was rendered. The
father, mother brothers and sisters
of the young man slain by Judge Low
ing were In court during the after.
noon, but returned to their homes
when the case was given to the jury.
Thanked Jurors.
When quiet was restored. Judge
Loving, his wife and their relatives
shook the jurors hands and thanked
them. The acqulttal was not unex'
pected, but the promptness with
which It was returned was a surprise,
The agreement was reached on the
first ballot. The jurors said they be-
lieved Loving was insane when he
killed Estes.
The Loving case was taken on a
change of venue TO Halifax from Mel
son county, where Judge Loving said
prejudice existed against him.
The case was strikingly similar to
that of Harry Thaw. the young Pitts
burger, awaiting trial in New York
for killing Stanford White.
Loving told the jury that he re
ceived the first hint of his daughters
supposed relations with Estes from
the formers brother.in.law, Harry
Snead. He called on his daughter fol
an explanation, and she broke down
and confessed what had happened.
Maddened by the scandal, Loving
seized his shot gun, drove to Estes
place of business and shot him dead
Snead corroborated Loying's story
so far as he knew it. Then Miss Low
ing, bowed with grief and shame, tool
the stand, and from her lips the jury
heard the same testimony at first
hand.
Insanity experts called by the de-
tense expressed the opinion that long
dissipation has so weakened Judge
I.ovlugs mind as to render him un'
able to bear the strain of sucn story
as his daughters without an actual
mental lapse.
The prosecut ion sought to show
that Miss Loving, though intoxicated
was not mistreated by Estes. The
court refused to permit the introduc'
