Fay Conway
Dies Suddenly
Coroner's Jury Declares
Death Due to Causes
Unknown.

Our city was thrown into a fever
of excitement Saturday night when
a report got out that VIM. Arm
strong, recently released from jail,
had killed his brother-in-law, Fay
Conway, and the report was ac-
cepted as facts without inquiry.
AS near as we can learn the boy,
who was about 10 years old, dress
ed up in a new suit of clothes
bought by his guardian, ]. t. Con-
way, and left for his sisters Sat
urday evening about 4 o'clock
Here he and Mr.. Armstrong took q
number of drinks of whiskey Mr.
Armstrong had in the house and
at about supper time they got into
a scuffle in which Mr.. Armstrong
says he slapped Conway, who fell
against a chiffonier and cut small
cash over one eye.
Physicians were called, but could
do nothing for him, but testified
at the coroner's inquest Tuesday
afternoon that they thought the
boy died of alcoholism and not OF
the slight wound received by the
fall.
The jury meditated only a few
minutes when they signed the fol-
lowing statement:
We the jury having been duly
sworn and affirmed by DR.. G. E.
Scrutchfield, coroner of Saline
County, Missouri, diligently to en-
quire and true presentment make
in what manner and by whom Fay
Conway, whose dead body was
found at the residence of w. A.
Armstrong on South English Ave
Marshall, Mo-, on the 9Th day OF
October, 1910, came to his death
after having heard the evidence
and upon full inquiry concerning
the facts and careful examina-
tion of said body, do find thar the
deceased came to his death ii the
hour of about 11.30 p. m. on the

Stock Market.

National Stock Yards, ILL.,, Oct 10
Receipts of cattle this week have
been liberal at all points and the
quality at our market has been
pretty fair. Chicago is complain
ing very much about the quality
being very common. The best cat
tie do not show a decline of more
than 1Oc. The fair to good cattle
are about Csc lower and the COM
mon kinds, 10 to 15c lower. Choice
yearling steers and heifers are in
good demand and are full steady.
The best cows are slow sale at
about steady prices, all others 10
to Is lower. Bulls steady. Stock
ers and feeders Is to 25c lower and
very dull. 1t looks like we are
going to have continued liberal re-
ceipts of cattle and our opinion is
that half fat and plain kinds that
will come within the next few
weeks, should be marketed at once
as it looks like this kind will get
lower. Look for the good kinds
to hold up.
Our hog market the fore part
of the week broke Is to Csc. Most
all that decline was regained today
and today's market was strong and
10 to 15c higher. Top 1920, while
most of the light shipping and
butcher hogs sold from $9.O5 to
S9d5. Mixed hogs sold better to-
day than they have for several
weeks and sold from S.S5 to &c
Prime heavies and rough throw
outs are selling from S,25 to $50
We look for light receipts to con-
tinue and an unsatisfactory mar
ket. f
The sheep market has been ad-
vancing here all the week. Receipts
have been light and all mutton

the sad events of the week We are
called upon to chronicle is the
death of Miss Edna Finnell who
passed away Thursday, Oct. 9Th,
after an illness of nearly two

fession always seeking for Others
well being rather than her own
But in such aquiet gentle way
that she will live long in the
minds of all that knew her, and

was never known to murmur but
was ever ready for her Savior to
call her home. She leaves large
number of relatives and host OF
friends to mourn her loss.
Her funeral took place Friday
Oct. 7, from the family residence
conducted by her former pastor
Rev. D. c. Bolton and she was laid
to rest at Little Grove cemetery
Great sympathy is felt for the

GUESSED VALUE OF LAND.

Galveston, March 19.-A deal in
volving three million dollars for 1000
acres of land in McMullen county,
southwest Texas, brought to light the
presence of oil in great quantities in
that section of the state where expert
ments have been quietly conducted for
several months. Without the knowl-
edge of just what the experts found in
their test wells, the property owners
advanced the price of their lands to
enormous figures. The new owners
organized the Boston-Texas corpora
ton and include S. A. Hopkins, treas
urer; H. P. Chase, general manager, of
Boston; r. r. Sherwood of New York,
and HI. w. Pierce of Ohio. These men
are also interested in oil fields in Ohio
and Indiana. The grade of oil found
is almost pure lubricating, and the
supply is unlimited. The new owners
plan the construction of pipe lines to
the nearest railway, fourteen miles dis.
tant. Fifty large tanks have been or.
dered and large earthen reservoirs will
be constructed at once.
This promises to be the largest field
in the southwest and is far removed
from other producing fields.

tion was not given out.
Mr.. Gays lease as manager of the

new manager at that time Who the
new manager will be is kept secret.
In fact Mr.. Brown stated last night he
had not yet determined who would be

he would very probably move to Ohio

the hotel business. He has served as
manager of the Westcott for the past
five years.

Barnard Encouraged to Desert Car

non by Tips From "Home."
Representative Barnard cast his
vote against Cannon yesterday after
noon in the final showdown between
Cannon and the Insurgents in the
fight for the Norris resolution which
took away Cannon's greatest power.
Yesterday he was encouraged to take
this action by the kilograms which
came to him from the Sixth district.
These kilograms came to him from
all over the district. Connersville
joined insurgent Wayne in informing
Barnard of the temper Of the people.
The Wayne county republicansexecu-
tive committee, headed by Col. Wiley,
sent him unanimous telegram stat
ing that they could vouch for sup
port of the Wayne republicans only if
he helped to remove all doubts as to
his position.

These republicans stated that they
did so as friends of Mr.. Barnard and

Barnard has all along maintained
that he was in favor of changes in
the house rules and against the dom

Until lately he has stated that he did

made the most dramatic speech Ol
his career. After reviewing the pres

1.-TWO courses are open. One for me
to resign and permit the new com

THE other is for that combination
to declare the speakership vacant
and proceed with the election of a
new speaker. In the judgment Of the
speaker a resignation in itself is a
confession of weakness, or an apol
ogy for past actions. The speaker
has construed the rules as they have
been in force for two decades. There
has been much talk on the part OF the

is there is no cohesive republican
