Ceredo advance. [volume] (Ceredo, W. Va.) 1885-1939, 1910-09-07
Found Guiitu OF MansIauQht6r.

The jury i'll the case of DR.. +. ID.
Marcum, who was on trial at Louisa,
KY, last week brought in verdict of
manslaughter and fixed his punishment
Mt seven years in the penitentiary.
The doctor was indicted for killing
John Whitaker on train on the Big
Sandy branch of the g. q o. X. r.
about two years ago. He was pas
senger on the train at the time and was
also marshal of the town of Louisa On
account of his being an officer OF the
law the conductor asked him to arrest
Whitaker and three companions for dis
orderly conduct, They resisted and in
the fight that followed Whitaker was
shot by Marcum and died few days
afterward.
1t is certainly a severe sentence and
much regret is felt here, where many
relatives of the doctor reside.
The prosecution was composed OF Com.
monwealth's Attorney John w. Waugh,
A. Floyd Byrd, of Winchester, Ky.
John Hopkins of Prestonsburg. and
Galloway Howard of Magofin county.
The defendant was represented by his
father, Judge W. w. Marcum of this
place; his uncle, John 5 Marcum OF
Huntington, and nearly the entire local
bar. Judge II. i. Burns opened the
argument for the defense and was fol-
lowed by Mr.. Hopkins for the common
wealth. He was followed by VI. s.
Burns, for the defendant. ne by Mr..
Byrd, he by John 5 Marcum. and Pros.
ecutor Waugh closed the argument
The defense will ask the court TO set
aside the verdict Of the jury and 80 the
motion is Overruied they viii carry the
case 90 the supreme court Of appeals.

TO BUILD TWO BATTLESHIPS
House Authorizes the Construction of
Two Fighting Machines at Cost
Of Six Million Dollars Each.

Washington.-By a decisive vote of
1862 to 10, fourteen being present and
not voting, the house on Friday au
thorized the construction of two bat
tleships to cost $6,OO0,000 each. Thr.
ty-three Democrats voted for two bat
tleships and twenty-four Republicans
voted against the proposition.
This action was taken just prior
to the passage of the naval appropria-
ton bill, carrying $12S,037,6O2 This
amount is about $3,000000 less than
was recommended by the navy depart
ment. In addition to the battleships,
the bill also provides for the construc-
ton of two fleet GOLFERS and four sub
marine boats.
As amended on motion of Mr. Fitz-
gerald of New York, the two battle
ships and two fleet GOLFERS must be
constructed by firms operating under

irrigation project destined to reclaim
vast area of sagebrush land directly
tributary to Boise and in Ada county,
increasing the valuation of the latter
$50,000,000 within the next fifteen
years, was Officially launched on Sat

ing a $4,000, 900 dam $50 feet in height

from S1S,000000 to $20,000000, and in
wolves construction of seven miles of

100 miles of main canal and pumping

Big TRUST CASES POSTPONED
Supreme Court Orders Re.Aruument Of
Gases Against Standard Oil Com
pany and the Tobacco Trust

misunderstanding at this time
TO render decisions in the dissolution
suits against the Standard Oil com
pany and the so-called tobacco trust,
the supreme court of the United States
on Monday ordere a re-argument of
these cases.
This postpones the final disposition
of the application of the Sherman anti
trust law to these corporations for
weeks and probab's until next Octo-
Der. The present term will end about
June 1. The immediate cause of the
re-asslgnment of the cases is thought
to have been the recent death of Jus
tice Brewer. HIS death left only seven
justices actively at work on the bench,
as Justice Moody has been i'll all this
term. 1t is believed the court will not
advance the cases for re-argument UNI
I'll President Taft has been given
ample time to fll the vacancy created
by the death of Justice Brewer. II
this vacancy is not filled before the
senate adjourns for the summer 1t is
probable the case will not be taken up
again until after the first of next De-
cember, when the senate meets again.
