THE BENTON FIRE.
IH.VAC WAI.T91AN TKIltO l'Oll
ARHOIS,
Isnno Waltman was arraigned In Court
1 Wednesday afternoon of last week,
charged with sating fire to n building In
the village of Benton on Monday evening,
March 8. He wa9 represented by Messrs.
Ikeler &, Herring and J. B. Roblson, and
tho Commonwealth by District Attorney
Bllimeyer nnd Col. Freeze. Tho defendant
entered a plea of not guilty, and tho after
noon was spent In selecting n jury, each
uror being called separately nnd Interroga
ted ns to whether ho had formed or ex
pressed an opinion In tho case. Mr. Blli
meyer opened the caso for tho common
wealth. The first witness called was John
Chnpln, of Benton, who testified to the
lire In tho second etory of tho Smith build-
ug; tho lire wns breaking through the
talrway from second to third floor; part
ot building wns used ns dwelling; burst
open door, flame about three feet long go
ng up stairway; fire was put out; u small
dark lantern wns found under stairway; no
stovo In the room, nor Hue; dnrk night,
snowed a little; saw tracks In snow after
fire, around tho building, leading from
alley In back of lot to tho rear end of
Smith building; traced them from alley to
porch.
Airs. J. A. Chapln, Mrs. A. H. McCollum
and Mrs. Peiflcr testified ns to noises being
heard It. lh house shortly beforo tho lire,
footsteps going up and down thu stalls.
Other ItnesBcs were called In the follow
ing order, nnd wu give a synopsis of the
evidences
J. .. McHcnry -Merchant in Benton.
Went homo on evening of tiro about 7,
remained until 8 o'clock, then went back
to store; as I got around the corner at
Hess' hotel, right opposite lamp post, by
the alley that comes into Dr. Patterson's
I saw a man coming between a walk nnd a
run, so fast that it attracted my attention,
and I stopped; when he got near mo the
light shoiiu 011 In 111 , nnd ho took a red
handkerchief and held It over his face; I
could sco his eyes and upper part of his
nose; ho passed In 8 feet of me. When he
got past about 20 feet he looked around,
blew tils nose, and put his handkerchief in
Ids pocket, aud started on n run towards
the bridge; I went to tho store, and In a
few minutes the alarm of 11 iu was given.
I said Iliad met the man I believe; went
to the lire and when that was out I pul
them on tho track; I went only to the
church on the hill, then went back and ex
amined track that come down the alley
round Ikcler's hotel. It went down the
alley, then through tho fence through the
Smith lot to thu porch; It came out tho
same way it went in, then out between tho
buildings;il wns the same trnck coming out
and going in; tracked It ns far ns sidewalk,
and then it was all tracked up till we got
down to Hess's, but there was no other
track to or from tho bridge except Clem.
Mcllenry. Saw Waltman put his foot In
trnck afterward and It fitted exactly.
Would have known Waltman If ho hadn't
covered his face. Saw two tracks up the
hill, one went past the church nnd through
the Held, the other wcut past the house.
Saw both tracks when I left hotel; they
came together near bridge. Ono started
from R. Mcllenry'8 store. Havo known
Waltman since Inst Fall. Did not know
him in Ids younger days. Didn't tell nny
one who he was before he was arrested.
Stores were open when alarm of flro was
given. The snow was soft, no rain, not
extremely cold. Wns present at Justlco's
ofllce, about a dozen present. Waltman
made to objection to going to put his foot
in the truck, and showed his handkerchief
when asked; cotton handkerchiefs arc very
common. As soon as 1 opened llio door
and saw Waltman I was tntlstlcd ho was
the man 1 met. I suid 1 had no idea it was
Isaac Waltman until ho was brought back
and I saw him in tho olllce. Don't know
that I said nt tho Squire's that Waltman
wns the man. Only met with one track.
There was another track coming in and
going out. They followed It to Clem. Mc-
Henry's hous;. It did not agree nt all
with the other track. Think McIIonry's
track was made Hrst as thero was somo
snow in It; the other ivas fresh. Clem.
Mcllenry Is my second cousin. I ascer
tained tho dilTcrence In the two tricks.
They got Clem, out of bed; don't know
whether they fitted his boots in the track.
The porch is about 8 feet wide, with roof.
Don't know what direction snow fell;
porch laps on to Smith building. Clem.
Mcllenry is about my size, larger than
Waltman. I said that Waltman wore u
broad laced shoe. I measured the track,
it wus 10 inches, and a little less than 4
Inches across the bottom, about number 0
or 7. Sell shoes, good many ot that size.
Population of Benton Is 200 to 250. Didn't
Measure length ot steps anywhere. (Over
coat shown witness.) this looks yery
much like tho coat I saw. I examined
Hack from cud ot porch nut Into the front
street. The track fiom the porch to alley,
alley to street and from Hess' to the bridge
was tho same. Hess' street lamp was
lighted, a'so Boyd McIIcnry's, sufficient to
glye me a good view. Saw no one else on
either sldo of llio street when I met Walt-
man. It wns a stormy evening, and there
was not much travel. ,
J. 77. Mcllenry. Live in Benton about
100 yards from house that was fired. Was
at my hotel when alarm was given. It wns
between eight aud nine o'clock. Went up
stairs with water, smoko drove mo out, and
I went down and got help nnd went back
and wo put it ut. Nvaxt day found kindling
wood, &o., under steps, pretty well burned,
considerable wood still there. After fire
was out saw n keg with coal nshes in it,
burned around the keg; saw lantern, dark
lantern, R. Boyer picked it up. H was un
der steps whero fire wns. Followed track
that J. J. Mcllenry showed us, from Hess'
lamp post to tho bridge, only two tracks
up hill to thu church, Hart a lantern, ono
went on up the hill to Davis'. It is a little
over a mile from hotel to Davis'. Went in
and they said at first thero was no ono
there, wo went out and looked around
house and found no trnck, aud then Davis
said ho thought wo were fooling at first
aud said his uncle, Isaac Waltman, was
th;re. After wo camo back wo found
some ono had ssen Waltman In town nnd
wo got the constnblo and went over and
arrested him. It was next morning when
I examined tracks. Tlieio were a good
many at the fire. Was at Davis' twice that
night. He first thought wo wcro joking

Derby hat In the house; wo went In second
tune and Davis said Ids uncle, lsaao Walt'
