NO STONE LEFT UNTURNED IN
INVESTIGATION OF MURDER
Many Wild Tales Circulated In Re-
gard to Schumacher Murder Case
Police Yet Unable to Make
Arrest But Continue
Hunt.

Many wild rumors have gained cir
culation over Maysville within the
past week with regard to the investi-
cation now under way by the police
into the murder of Ben Schumacher,
Cotton Mill night watchman. All of
these rumors are false and where such
rumors are started are quite as much
Of mystery to the police as the case
itself
One of these reports which gained
circulation Monday night and Tuesday
morning was that an arrest had been
made In the case but such is not the
case. The police have not yet reached
the place in their investigation where
they feel they have enough evidence to
warrant an arrest but as soon as they
do reach that point in the investiga-
ton arrests will follow at once.
| Chief Ort tody investigated very
carefully all of the papers and letters
found in the home of William Riley
who committed suicide Monday al
noon. Just what was learned by the
police from these papers is not known
Others are being carefully questioned
by the officials.

DR.. DODSON IS OUSTED
BY CITY C0uNClLMEN
CouncIl-clect From Third Ward Is
Found to Be Ineligible For Seat
In Council and Mr.. j. D. Keith
Is Elected In His Stead.

After many meetings, the members
Of the City Council finally ousted DR..
]. A. Dodson from the body on Mon
day evening following committee
meeting Of Council OF the whole which
had investigated the case and which
had found, under the proof offered,
that Mr.. Dodson had not been resi-
dent of the Third Ward long enough to
make him eligible to the seat in coun-
oil to which the majority of the vot-
ers OF his ward had elected him by
an unquestionable plurality.
When the committee returned to the
council chamber from the committee
room, DR.. Dodson addressed them stat
ing that he did not desire TO take the
matter into the courts and that he did
not desire to cause his friends any
more trouble. He then offered his
resignation relinquishing any rights
that he might have TO sit in council
1t was later ruled that as council had
not been called in regular form and
was still in committee when DR.. Dod-
son offered his resignation, 1t had moi
been duly offered to council and his
statement was disregarded.
The report of the committee wai
| filed and ordered recorded and a va
cancy was duly declared and Mr.. Johr
Dudley Keith was unanimously elect
ed to fll the vacancy.
