jury in Carmack Case Has
Reached a Partial Yer
dict Today.
COOPERS ARE YET
HELD SUSPENSE
jury Is Sent Back to Hold
Further Deliberations
Concerning Coopers.

NASHVILLE, March 19.-John d.
Sharp, formerly sheriff was today ac-
Quilted of numbering former Senator
E. w. Carmack The jury failed to
agree on a verdict in the case of Col.
Duncan Cooper and his son Robin.
The court discharged Sharp and sent
the jury back to consider the Cooper
case The jury has been out over
two days.
The trial is one of the costliest in the
history of Tennessee and the county
funds are exhausted.
The killing of Carmack was the out
growth of a long and bitter political
feud between the Coopers and Car
mack, embracing many prominent men
in the state. If the jury is dismissed
it is probable the case will not be
tried for some time again, on account
of the difficulty to get jury.
History of Trouble.
Carmack was originally the protege
of Colonel Cooper. Later they became
enemies when Carmack went to the
United States senate. Carmack assalled
Cooper in the paper he edited when he
failed to secure reelection a year ago.
The immediate trouble Preceding the
shooting developed from publication or
an article which Cooper warned Car
mack not to print. Soon afterward Car
mack met the Coopers on the street
and after the exchange of few words
Carmack was shot down by Robin in
defense, Robin declared He thought
his father in danger Of death by Car
mack.

to the identification of the Pendleton
branch of the O. r. & N, the object
being to shut out the Northern Pacific
and the Walla Walla Valley Traction
company in the proposed alliance to
put in network of lines throughout
the valley. It is understood that the
railway officials were offered a liberal
bonus as an inducenent to take such
action, and the men who have been
quietly buying up land south of the
city now have several hundred acres
through which the line will pass with
out any additional construction work
at this time.
Those who own property and are
said to be interested in the lates. move
in the railway world are M. H. Paxton,
|J. w. Langdon, harry Reynolds, Har-
ry Lasater, c. L. Whitney, Braden
Brothers, and others. That the land
owned by those men will make as de-
sirable acre tracts as will the land
contained in the Blalock fruit farm
is considered certainty, and with the

of interurban cars,A the promoters see
an opportunity to build up one Of the
most thriving and prosperous fruit
sections of the entire valley.
Much of the land contained in the
holdings Of the men interested has
been used for wheat production, but
with the new plan we'll developed,
wheat growing in that part of the val
lev will be placed on the back seat, to
make way for additional fruit acreage.
I. was announced this morning that
Mr.. Langdon and others had been buy
ing property south of the city for some
time past, with the idea in mind OF
opening a big acre-trac. territory, and
with the understanding that the 0. r

ration, the prospects for the perma :
nent success of the venture is assured
It is said power privileges have been
secured in the mountains, and that
"iuice" will be furnished from plant
to be installed near Pendleton.
Compete With Oregon Wa shington.
In electrifying the Pendleton line
the o. r. & N. company would not
only shut out the Walla Walla Valley
Traction company and the Hill inter-
ests, but would enter in direct compe-
tition with the proposed Oregon
Washington traction line. Bonus Of
I fers, it is believed, can be secured

along the line between here and Pen

cost of electrifying the road.

WILLIAM DENNIS
HAS DISAPPEARED
FRANKLIN COUNTY FARMER HAS
DROPPED SUDDENLY FROM
SIGHT.
Kiona Farmer, Who Had Considerable
Money, Left Family and Has Not
Been Heard Frcm

Another disappearance case which
has so far baffled the efforts sof the
officials of Franklin county. has been
brought to the attention of local Off
GERS, information having been brought
to police headquarters this morning
that William Dennis, whose home is
on farm eight miles south of Kiona,
went to Pasco two weeks ago last
Tuesday, was last seen crossing the
railroad bridge between Pasco and
Eennewick, since which time nothing
can re learned as to his movements
or present whereabouts.
Dennis has a wife and three small
children who are still living on the
farm near Kiona, and his wife is al
most Frustrated with the continued
absence Of her husband. Whether he
fell from the bridge into the river,
was struck by passing train, or
whether he met with foul play-those
are the questions being given consid-
Grafton by the authorities. 1t is
thought by some of the mans friends
that he boarded one of the outgoing
trains for the east, but as he was a
sober, Industrious and willing worker
who always cared for those depend
ent on him in an excellent manner,
that theory is not given credence.
1t is said Dennis carried with him a
considerable sum of money and it is
feared that this became known in
some manner and that in crossing the
bridge he was waylaid and robbed
and his body thrown into the river.
1t was announced today that the river
banks below the bridge will be search
ed and an effort made to locate the
body in case he met with an accident,
or with foul play. In case Dennis
merely wandered off to some other
inland town, the authorities through
out the state will be asked to cooper
ate in the work Of locating him, as
his family and friends are consider
ably worried because Of the strange
disappearance.
