CONFLICTING WAS
 THE TESTIMONY w. E. Whetstone on Murder Charge, Released on
 $3,000 Bond.
ESTABLISHED AN ALIBI
Brother of Murdered Man Testified That He Identified Him as
 the Man.

Hamburg, Get 22.-5N. E. Whets- tone, who was committed to jail by F. E. Murphy, acting coroner, charged with the murder of Ernest Lambert, was released on bond in the sum of $3,000 by habeas corpus proceed ngs before Judge J. c. Brown.
 The evidence against Whetstone was doubtful and conflicting, making it clearly bailable case within the statute.
 Gus Lambert, brother of the mur- dcred man, who was with him at the time of the tragedy, testified positive ls that he recognized W. F. Whet- stone as the man who fired the first shot that killed his brother What- stone, by the evidence of two reliable witnesses, proved a completed alibi.
 No other arrests have been made as yet Guy Lambert testified that three or four were concerned in the affair. Everything is quiet now, but no doubt there will be further developments.

GRIFFIN MUST
Convicted of the Murder of Hise Wife Bell Elmore, the Aetrcss-Jury Was Out Only Thirty Minutes When
 Decision WhS Reached.

London, Oct. 22.-Dr. Hawley H. Crippen was today found guilty of having murdered his wife, known on the stage as Belle Elmore.
 He was sentenced to death.
 The case was given to the jury at 2:07 o'clock and the deliberations were brief. The jury was out just 30 minutes.
 When the proceedings were resum- ed today, Lord Chief Justice Aver stone called Crippen to the stand and asked him questions regarding the use of hyoscin, the poison with which it is charged the accused killed his wife The justice elicited information that hyoscin is administered through the mouth and also hypodermically. Richard Muir then began the clos ing speech for the prosecution. He said the defense relied largely on the theory that Crippen was too kind- hearted to commit murder.
 Counsel brought out that the de- fendant, however, had lived fol months life of hypocricy, mockine grief to his wtfe's dearest friends. The prosecutors address occupied scarcely more than an hour. He con. cluded by saying the prosecution hae proved beyond a reasonable doubt tht body found in Crippen's home was that of his wife, Belle Fillmore, tht actress. and that none but the pris oner could have cut up the body ant buried it in the cellar.
 Lord Chief Justice Alyerstone be gan h's review of the case as soon a! Muir had concluded.

JUDGE GOULD ON
 MACADAM ROAD Explains Why Order Was
 Made to Meet the
 Indebtedness. OTHER COUNTIES DO IT Pine Bluff Was Losing Trade Before Macadam Road Was BuiIt-Has
 Helped Other Roads.
OTHER COUNTIES DO IT

County Judge James Gould yester- day addressed statement to the Graphic, in which he fully explains his action in making an order direct ing County Clerk J. H. Shelby to pay out road warrants to meet the indebtedness of Road Improvement District No. 1, known as the maca- dam road south of Pine Bluff. Coun- ty Clerk Shelby, before issuing the warrants, asked Prosecuting Attorney w. D. Jones to define the law fo" him and rule whether or not he has the authority to issue the warrants.
 The warrants were ordered paid by Judge Gould in accordance with all allowance of $31 ,560 and the order was made that the money be taken out of the fund of Road District No. 1. Judge Gould's statement follows:
 Editor Graphical did not intend to reply to the criticism that is being waged against me for issuing the order to pay the indebtdness existing against macadam road, but 1 feel like there are some people who are entitled to know the true facts and the law, as understand it, under which this order was rendered.
 Now, let's discuss the matter fair ly. To begin with, there is not q mile of macadam in the state of Ark ansas but what was built and paid for in full by the county, either out of the general revenue fund or the three-mill road tax. Pulaski and Sebastion counties are the pioneers in good roads building in this state. In both of these counties greater part of the city's road tax out of Little Rock and Fort Smith, was used to build macadam roads. These roads doubled and trebled the vaine of the lands many times over through which they pass, and yet no question was raised, nor were the property owners made to pay spec al tax for the benefit derived. And so the rule follows among the counties in this state. A few cola1ty judges have built one Or two miles of improved highways, it being all the funds avail able.
 I realized when I took charge of ! this office the fact that Pine Bluff was losing, every year, more and more of her southern trade on ac-
