EWING PATTERSON
 HELD TO BE INSANE

Kingston, N. Y, January 26-Ewing Watterson, son of Col. Henry Watterson of Louisville, probably was insane at the time he shot Michael J. Martin, a sa- loonkeeper at Saugerties last July, and is probably still insane, according to testi- mony given today before commission appointed by County Judge Cantine.
 The testimony was ssven by Dr. Ebert D. B. Loughran, who examined Waiter son on behalf of the people, in company with Dr. Maurice w. Ashley, superin- tendent of the Middetown state hospital for the insane. They based their opinion upon examination they made of him and upon testimony given at various hearings before the commission. Only inability of the physicians to establish positive hal lucinations deterred them from declaring that Watterson undoubtedly was insane.
 Watterson was witness today and de- scribed in detail occurrences of the dAy when he shot Martin up to within a short time before the shooting when he said he lost consciousness and when he regained 1t found himself under arrest He ad- ritted that whisky was poison to him. He justified previous assaults in which he had figured and said if he desired he could refute many statements made by his family concerning his eccentricities.
 The decision of the commission will be announced Monday.

TENNESSEE SUED
 TO FIX BOUNDARY

Memphis, Tenn, January 26.-Carruth- CTS Ewing of Memphis announced. tonight that, acting as solicitor for the attorney general of Arkansas, he has filed suit in the United States supreme court against the state of Tennessee involving the right of jurisdiction over 12O0O acres of land, the purpose primarily being to have the boundary lines between the two states definitely established.
 The construction of the words main channel of the Mississippi, which was described as fixing the boundary of the state of Arkansas when admitted to the union In 1896, constitutes one of the prin- cipal points in the suit. When Tennessee was made a state in 'i796 the congress sional act marked the western boundary as the middle of the Mississippi river" and in similar litigation which has been fought outs in the Tennessee courts the latter state was upheld in the contention that the middle of the river means a point equi-distant from the well-defined banks of the stream. The main channel, Arkansas contended, means the main commercial channel, which, because of the vagaries of the river, is constantly changing and is an entirely different proposition The supreme court of Ten nessee recently decided in favor of Ten nessee.

BLEASE'S CHARGES
 FLATLY DENIED

Atlanta, January 26.-Gen. Clifford l.. Anderson, law Spartner of Thomas B Fielder, in the latter's absence from At lanta, today made a statement in refer ence to the Associated Press dispatch from Columbia, S. C., in which Governor Blease is quoted as inquiring why Eel der was not prosecuted when it was found that he was the attorney for a uouor house which was favored with liquor purchases and rebates were paid for these purchases"
 The statement was as follows:
 Since the Goodman and Fleishman compromise referred to were also made under the advice and through the in- strumentality of MT. Fielder, I assume that the governors reference to these matters, and demand that they be in- qIired into, is likewise an attempt to reflect upon Mir Fielder.
 Throughout the entire course of the investigation of the South Carolina state dispensary, and the disposition of the matters connected herewith by the wind ing up commission, I have been closely associated with MT. Fielder and am fla miiiar with all the facts connected there with.
 MT. Fielder is out of the city and in his behalf I desire to say that the charges and insinuations contained in the gover- nor's message which refer to MT. Fielder are absolutely untrue and without foun- SctfsT in fact.
 If Governor Blease has been informed by any persons that there are existing facts giving facts to the foundation of these charges he has been wilfully misled by designing persons who probably have felt the weight of the law, growing out Of their own nefarious transactions with the state dispensary, and seek this meth cd of revenge"
