Verdict of "Not Guilty" of the Murder of E. w.
 Carmack.
LAST CHAPTER IN CASE
Recommendation Made to the Jury by Attorney General. Murder
 Goes Unayenged.

NashV He, Tenn, Nov. 15.-Robin J. Cooper, charged with the murder of Senator E. w. Carmack, was given a verdict of not guilty in the criminal court this morning on the recommen- dation of Attorney A. B. Anderson.
 Thus was brought to "a close the final chapter in one of the most cele- brated cases known to the annals of the courts of Tennessee. In strik- ing contrast to the scenes marking the first trial of this case, in which the court room was packed almost to suffocation. by those eager to hear every word of the evidence, there were only few people present.
 Entrance of Defendant.
 Robin Cooper came into the court room some minutes before the time for court to convene, and took a seat at the table behind the railing. About half an hour later his counsel, Judge ! M. Anderson. General w. H. Wash ington. Charles N. Burch, Judge M. H. Meeks and Judge J c Bradford, en- tered the court room and took seats at the table
 There was no counsel associated with Attorney General Anderson for the state. and he stated in recom- mending the verdict of not guilty tha. no human being had said one word to him in connection with any prosecu- tion during the two and one-ha!f months that he has been attorney gen. eral.
 Vernon H. Sharp, clerk of the crim- inal court, called the case of Robin J Cooper about 9:30 o'clock after min or matters had been before the court.
 Jury Was Called. Attorney General Anderson stated that he would like to have jury for the disposition of this case and jury No. was called.
 The 12 men filed into the jury box. There was complete silence in .he court room as the attorney general arose to address the court, and said hl had recommendation in this case to make to the court.
 Your honor is probably familiar with this case,' said the attorney general. This defendant, Col. Dun- can B. Cooper and John Sharp were indicted jointly for the murder of Senator Carmack. The case came up for trial and resulted in the acquittal of Sharp. Colonel Cooper and this defendant were found guilty of mur- der in the first degree. The supreme court affirmed the case of Colonel Cooper, but as to this defendant there was a revearsal.''
 No Effort to Prosecute.
 Judge A. B. Neil stated to the jury that in view of the statement of the attorney general, the sworn officer of the state, and in view of the further fact that there is no further effort made to prosecute, the jury would re. turn a verdict of not guilty, which was accordingly done.
 Counsel for the defense had noth- ing to say during the proceedings, and at the conclusion, General Washing ton arose and stated to the court that they would retire. The defendant | left tha conrt room with his councaI

NATIONAL SEEK TO

Egyptian Party Spreads Report
That Christian Copts Are Plot
ting Against the Arabs.
Foreign Correspondence OF The Star.


CAIRO, May -. 1910
story is being published by the
leading nationalist organ here to the
effect that the Copts are conspiring to
create "A demonstration against the Arabs,
and that a deputation of Copts is pre-
pairing to leave Cairo for England to lay
their case before his majesty's govern
ment
The statement that the Copts are busy
is most serious matter. as, besides being
utterly without foundation. II produces
a very strong feeling of uneasiness in the
country, and paralyzes business to some
extent.
Such articles can only lead to the
growtn OF the :ll-feeling at present pre-
vailing between Christians and Mosiems
any may ultimately lead to bloodshed in
the streets-indeed, it looks very much as
If that were the object of the nation
aliSts.
The Copts-tilat is, the Christians-are
being accused OF a fantastic plan for
massacrins the Arabs, and the latter are
obi. ged. merely as matter of selI-de-
Tense, to strike first avoid being struck
themselves. The extreme nationalists are
equal to the preparation of any crime,
they are gaining ground Gaily and have
obtained the sympathy OF the Egg ptian
cabinet, particularly as the prime minis
ter himself is nationalist.
1t looks, therefore. very much as if the
day were approaching when the British
authorities in this country, to save their
own position and the lives OF the Chris
tians in seenral, will have to take very
decided action.

FLASH TIME TO SHIPS
FROM THE EIFFEL TOWER
French Government Experimenting
Enormous Advantage.
Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.

Foreign Correspondence of The Star.
PARIS May 2s 1910.
Acting upon the suggestion OF two MEM
bers of scientific society, Capt. GUyon
and NJ. de la Grye. the French govern
ment is now experimenting with a scheme
for supplying all chronometers at sea
with the time at noon. o'clock at night
and at midnight by means OF wireless
messages from the Eiffel tower.
The first trial took place last Monday
with ships at Brest. Three sparks are
transmitted at intervals of two min
utes each. Thus, for instance. one is
given at o'clock precisely. a second at
hours minutes and a third at hours
1 minutes. The same method is to be
followed at noon and at midnight. Ar
engagements have been made for the regu-
lar transmission of the time at mid
night from this time onward.
Captains at sea, therefore, provided
with wireless receivers will be able TO
regulate their chronometers whenever
they require. A clock, Furthermore, spe-
ciaily prepared for this purpose, is to be
set going on the Eiffel tower to trans
nit the time, second by second, by wire
less flashes, so that the longitude may be
computed almost inStantanously anywhere
at sea on ships provided with wireless APP
paratt;s.
The advantages of this procedure III
cloudy or fossy weather will be enor-
nous. especially in places where there
are irregular currents. and ships in that
case will at once be warned If they are
drifting out of their course. The new
wireless will also be used hereafter
to determine the longitude of various
places on the continent and OF wire
less stations in Africa.
The Eiffel tower. in fact. is already in
regular communication with Dakar, Fort
Etienne and Rufisque. on the Atlantic
coast of northwest Africa, as well as with
the Canary Islands and with BiZerta and
Oran OF the Mediterranean coast. In a
short time it is expected that several
posts in the interior of Africa, such as
Ahecher and LoanSo. and BraZzaville.
farther south. will be in regular wireless
communication with Paris.

GILLE7T BILL MAY
CAUSE A PROTEST:
Executive Committee of San
Francisco's Retirement Assoc
citation to Discuss Measure


The executive committee of the
San Francisco branch of the United
States civil service retirement asso-
citation will hold an important meet
ing at the Appraisers building to-
morrow evening to consider the pro-
test against the contributory plan of
retirement for the superannuated en-
ployes known as the Gillett bill, now
pending in congress.
The association prefers that instead
of the Gillett bill a straight pension
plan should be adopted under the
plan proposed in the GouIden bill, in
troduced by Representative Joseph A.
Goulden
1t is contended that the contributory
plan does not express the idea of the
majority of the employees of the gov
eminent. The scheme is considered in
adequate because it means a reduc-
ton of the present salaries of the
employees, amounting to approximat tie
ly from SIS to SIS month on every
500 salary. NJ F. O'Donaghue. ma
tional president of the United States
civil service retirement association of
Washington, states that the sigma
lures of approval secured for the Gill
lett plan were not secured properly

has declared that the signatures were
secured by misrepresentation duress

against the Gillett bill will probably
be sent from this city.
