DUKES KILLED.
SHOT BY CAPTAIN NOrT'S SON.
Hve shots Fired at Him In the Street
Three Fatal The Story or Kye
Witnesses The Inquest
and Feeling.
The body of N. Lyman Dukes lies in
the Jennings house, Uniontown, cold in
death. James Nntt, whose father, Capt.
A. C. Nntt, was murdered by Dukes en
the 24th day of December last, has taken
a terrible revenge. At twenty-five min
utes after seven o'clock Wednesday even
ing Dukes was shot and almost instantly
killed by yeune Nutt, who is the eldest
son of the late cashier of the treasury.
Dukes was standing in front of the Jen
nings house when the evening mail arrived
a few minutes before seven. He remained
there talking te several acquaintances and
was apparently in the best of humor, for
he laughed and conversed in an unusually
free manner. Just before the sheeting he
started after his mail, ine postemce is
only a block from the Jennings house. It
faces en Pittsburgh street and the building
in which it is located stands en the corner
of Main and Pittsburgh streets, and has
been known ever since its erection many
years age as the " Round Cerner."
Five Shots Fired.
Immediately in front of the posteffice
and facing en Mam street is a store, which
has for many years been used as a drug
gist s establishment. The drugs have
been removed and the front of the store is
completely tern out and is being remodeled
for a banking room for the First national
bank. In this room, near Main street,
steed James Nutt, and when Dukes
reached the spot or get a little beyond
where he steed Nutt opened fire en him
and shot him two successive times in the
back near the heart. Dukes started en a
dead rut1, pursued by Nutt, who tired
three mere shots. Twe of them took
effect in the back, only about two inches
from the first two, and the fifth and the
last bullet struck him in the left ankle as
he was going up the posteffice steps. There
are two steps leading up into the office,
and when Dukes reached the top oue he
fell forward en his face. There was an
immense crowd of people standing around
en the outside of the office and they ran
iu every direction te escape the shots. The
fifth ball only grazed the left ankle, and
glanced off and went through some of the
lock boxes.
I Could Net Help It."
A number of persons rushed up the steps
after Dukes and at the same time Policeman
Pegg ran up and caught Nutt, who made
no resistance whatever, but said te the
officer : "Here, you take this ;" whereupon
he gave him his revolver.
Pegg said te him : "Yeu have done a
bad piece of work," te which Nutt replied :
" les, but 1 could net help it."
The officer te k Nutt te jail and Duke s
was cariied te that same old room in the
Jennings heuse where Captain Nutt was
killed by him and which he has continued
te occupy ever since.
Corener Sturgeon arrived en the scsne
of the shoetiug and took charge of Dukes'
body. Dukes lived only about half a
minute after being shot the. last time. A
friend of his was at his side aud he tried,
te speak, but could only mutter seinethiug,
but se indistinctly that It could net be un
derstood. He knew wbe shot him, evi
dently, for he turned around when the
first shot was fired aud looked at Nntt
while he was firing the second time and
then ran. As seen as he was pronounced
dead by the coroner the body was taken
te that room of his where he killed the
father of the boy who killed him.
The Officer's story.
The coroner then impaneled his jury,
which consists of Andrew J. Giluieie, as
feremau ; Geerge C. Marshall. Dr. L. S.
Gaddis, Jehn N. Dawsen, W. n. Miller
aud II. H. Heskney, jr. After the jury
was sworn it w.is decided te postpeno tlie
examination of witnesses uutil in the
morning at 8 o'clock. One witness, hew
ever, was examined, and tnat was umcer
Pegg, who witnessed the sheeting and
arrested Nutt. He testified that lis was
standing en the opposite corner aud saw
Dukes walking down the street. Nutt
was iu the room of the " Round Cerner."
When Dukes had stepped by Nutt, Nutt
shot twice and Dukes looked around and
tau. Nutt ran after him and fired three
mnre times. The elilesr ran after them
and caught Nutt just after he had fired
the last shot. Nutt, he said, made no re
sistance, but handed him his revolver,
saying : " Yeu Uke this." The witness
told him he had done a bad piece of work,
and Nutt replied : "I could net help it."
Armed with Dirk mid Kevulver.
The jury than proceeded te examiui r.hn
body. The coat was first taken elF and
searched. The pockets only contained
teiue papers, which were net touched.
The back had reur bullet holes in the left
Mde. The vest contained nothing of any
importance aud the holes iu the vest cer
responded with theso iu the coat. A dirk
knife was found hanging te the sispender
button en Duke's leftside, where he could
grasp it in an instant with his right hand,
and in his right uip-poaket was feuud Uhe
identical revolver with which he shot
Captain Nutt. The dirk was ready for a
clese encounter aud the revolver for long
range. Many thought that the revelver
used by Nutt was the sanu his father h il
at the time Dukes killed him, but it was
net. It was a Celt S3 calibre and net se
large as the one his father had. All theso
things were taken by the coroner.
On later examination of the wounds it
was found that three of the balls and net
four penetrated the body. They are se
clese together that a ring four inches in
diameter- will cover them all. Twe of
them went clear through the body aud
could be secu just through the skin, one
en the right side of the breast and tbe
ether, which fractured a rib, as near the
middle of the breast as could be.
1 be Wounds all Fatal.
These balls were cut out and the holes
probed by the coroner and hi3 father, Dr.
W. H. Sturgeon. It was found that these
balls passed te the right of and very
near the heart. The third hole wa3 then
probed and the ball wa3 found ledged in
the muscular tissues of the heart. This ball
passed through the lungs first and then
into the heart. It is thought that any
one of these three balls would have caused
his death. The two balls that went
through te the breast and were extracted
are also in the hands of the oeroner. The
ball that grazed the ankle and the one
that missed him altogether were picked
up by persons about the posteffice.
Dukes was dressed in a neat suit of dark
clothes, single breasted cut away coat and
soft black hat, and carried, as he has al
ways done, a little rattan cane. His cellar
was a high one, around which was tied a
narrow black cravat. His body will be
left in the room where it new lies uutil the
inquest is ever te morrow morning. The
undertakers are new at work laying him
out. When he fell his forehead struck the
fleer with great force and made an ugly
bruise en it. Before the coroner left a
gentleman friend of Dukes came into the
room and said that Miss Mary Beesen
wanted Dukes' keys, te which the coroner
replied : " Ne eue but his mother can have
them." Miss Beesen lives in the boese
adjoining the Jennings house, and it has
been reported that they have been en-
gaged,'fer some time. He visited her daily.
James Nntt in JalL
James Nutt was taken te the jail by
Officer Pegg and surrendered into the
hands of Sheriff Hoever, who immediate
ly locked him up behind the huge iron
bare. When Dukes shot Captain Nutt
he was treated te the best room in the
sheriff's mansion and had the run of the
house, but it is different new. The shoot sheot shoet
ing had scarcely taken place before the
whole community had heard of it and
people rushed te the scene by hundreds.
The coroner was en his way te the post pest
office when the sheeting occurred, and
arrived there just before life was extinct,
and it was all that a dozen men cenld de
te keep the immense crowd from the
body. There was ene or two cries of
"Stand back and give him air," and many
were the shouts : "He needs no air, let
him die ; he get what he deserved." The
inquiry along the streets was : " Is he
dead ?" and when told yes, the reply was :
"He will have te argue his own case at
the bar he has geno befere new." The
case te disbar him was te have taken
place in chambers en Friday of this week,
bat that unpleasantness will net have te be
gene ever again.
The universal feeling is sympathy with
James Nutt. Only a few days age he
went home, aud when he met his mother
he said te her :
" Mether, I met Dukes en the street
te-day, and he looked at me and laughed."
His mother tried hard te get him te
premise that he would net de anything te
Dukes, but he told her he would net talk
te her en that subject.
YOUAU NUTT'S CaAKAUlKK.
Tbe Mether's Unavailing Appeals te Illui
Net te Una Violence.
James Nutt is the second of Captain
Nutt's children, being next iu age te Miss
Lizzie, and will be twonty-eno years old
in August next. He is a quiet young man,
seldom having anything te say except
when spekcu te, and net much then, lie
is of a peculiar turn of mind, net being
very sociable, but decidedly retired. When
his father was killed net a few pre
dicted that James would avenge the death.
Mrs. Nutt was also approhensive that her
son would thus take the matter into his
own hands aud had tried hard and often
te induce him te premise her that he
would net de se. She could never get
him te give her auy assurance, however,
as he persistently refused her appeals. A
few days age he went home in a very irri
table mood and said te his mether:
"Mether, I can't stand this. I met Dukes
en the street te day, and he laughed in my
face." She feared from this time ou the
worst would ceme. It is net known when
nor where James purchased the revolver,
nor is it thought that anyone had any in
timation that he had formed the purpose
of executing the deed. He performed it
with coolness aud deliberation, and re
marked after wards that it had te be done.
After ha wai in the li.mdsef the officer, he
asked anxiously whether he hurt anyone
else. He repeated this inquiry te theso
who visited him after he was ledged in
jail, and when assured that his bullets had
harmed euly Dukes, he seemed" satisfied.

A i:vlen or tlie Crliua Which l.ed te Last
IMgllt'M Shoetlug.
The disath of Nicholas Lyman Dukes
fellows quickly upon the death of his
victim, Captain A C. Nntt. Dukes was
a young lawyer, and in November last was
elected as a Djmecr.it te the Legislature.
Captain Nutt was the cashier of the state
treasury. 'Beth men were very popular. On
the 4th of December Dukes, who had been
paying attentions te Hiss L:zz:e -Nutt,
wrote a letter te Captain Nutt, which he
mailed en the 11th. In it he said th it he
had heard stories concerning Miss Lizzie's
chastity, a-ul during one of his visits made
certain proposals, te which she readily
yielded Subsequently he accused Lizzie
with net confining favors t-i himself, aud
she ceuf3-.ed that she had been led astray.
Dukes euded Ins letter by telling tun cap
tain that hu feared his daughter was in a
delie.vte o:iditie;i, and suggested that he
might save his family from disgrace if he
c trod te Captain Nutt dated his letter
iu reply te this as llarrisburg, December
17. Iu it he wrete :
" Yeu mistake the temper of the man
with whom you h.we te deal. Yeu write
te tne as if you considered me a shameless
coward, aud even sngge3t te me the hid
eons office of the abortionist.' I shall
convince you that I hav. the physical
courage te espouse my daughter's cause
and defend the honor of my s-uf aud family,
and, further, that I have the moral ceur
age te rest secure in the approval of the
community in which I live, should this
whole miserable ail lir b.-cime fully known
te the world. Your letter is the pica of a
quibblcr, and net the open, ainceie, truth
ful statement of a gent'eiuiu atid a man
or honor. Yeu conceal important facts in
the case. It rests with you whother this
affair ends iu a legal farce or a tragedy.
This commonwealth is net big enough
for both of us uudnr existing cemplica
tieus I will be at home December 2:,aud
the two following days, when you and I
can talk face te face.''
Twe days later Dukes wroie in reply :
" I cannot accept for a wife the toy of
the town and thus beceme the butt of ths
town's mocking derision. Death is far
sweeter. I declare in all soberness that I
doubt if I am the author of the present
difficulty. If I were I have committed no
such heinous effense as you charge, as the
girl is uet what she ought te be. I don't
care te walk into a death trap, hut if you
want te sec mu you can call upon me
either at my office at 8 p. m. Saturday,
December 23, or at my room at same
hour, whichever you may indicate, and
you shall see me quietly and peaceably."
Captain Nutt reached his home iu
Uniontown en Saturday night, December
23. The next morning he made a confi
dant of his nephew, Clark Brcckenridge,
and together they walked te the Jennings
house, where Dukes bearded. They were
shown te his room. Nutt entered, Brcck
enridge remaining outside in conversation
with the son-in-law of the landlord, J. L.
Feather. Iu a moment there were sounds
of scuffling. Then it was that Brccken
ridge and Feather rushed into the room
and parted the two men, who were roll
ing ever t! e fleer. Nutt wa3 pulled te
one corner of the room and Duke te an
other. Then Dukes pulled his revolver
and with the remark, " Yeu came here te
thrash me and I'll sheet you," fired. The
bullet was fatal. Nutt fell and never
spoke a word. Dukes had purchased a
revolver a few days before He walked
te the jail and gave himself up. Captaiu
Nutt's funeral ceremonies en Monday
were witnessed by 2,000 people
Dukes was charged with wilful murder
and the trial began early iu March. The
evidence was plain that Nutt had been
shot down in cold bleed, when making no
effort te harm the assassin. The defense
was that the sheeting was done in self-
defense, in Dukes' own room, where
Captain Nntt had come, doubly armed
with a heavy cane and a large revolver,
after writing him a letter threatening te
take his life. The jurors were ignorant
men and brought in a verdict of acquittal.
There was the greatest indignation, and
Dukes and the jurors were hanged in effi
gy. Dukes sought seclusion for a time.
The members of the Heuse of Represen
tatives were about te declare his seat
vacant when be sent in his resignation. It
was generally believed in Uniontown that
his charges against Miss Nutt were de
void of truth, and an immense publie
meeting passed resolutions te this effect.
Dukes, about two months age, returned te
Uniontown, with the intention of remain
ing and building up his practice. There
was a motion te disbar him pending.
