HE WON'T MAKE
 A BAD MISTAKE
Gov. DonagIley to Examine Into the Poe Case at Hot Springs On
 Personal Visit.

Little Rock, Ark, June 15.-In or der to see that an innocent person will not be hanged, Gov. Donaghey will within the next week visit Hot Springs and secure what evidence he can relative to the guilt or innocence of Harry Poe, negro under sentence of death for criminally assaulting an eleven year old girl there several months ago. Several white women yesterday called on Gov. Donaghey, insisting that Poe is not the guilty person, claiming they saw him at the time the crime was committed, assist ing his mother wash clothes. The evidence against Poe was so strong, he being positively identified by the child and others who saw him in the woods. that Poe was convicted in a few hours after his trial was con- menced at special term of court. The case was appealed to the supreme court, affirmed and then affirmed again when motions for new trials were made. Gov. Donaghey promised he would go to Hot Springs and look into the case further before permit ting the negro to hang. The gov ernor is Poe's last hope.
