THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1890.
i
Xol to be Compared With One Back
in the Fifties, When Everybody
Was Interested in His Fate.
JAMES MYERS BEFORE THE COURT,
Charged With the Assassination of His
Aunt ana Foster Mother, at Mc-
Keesport, Last May.
C1KCU11STASTIAL EVIDENCE STEOXG,
Bit the FEtontr'i Counsel 'Will Attempt to Get Hun Out
ty the Alibi Routt.
To one who can remember back into the
early fifties, say back to the time David
Jewell was convicted and hanged lor a mur
der that to-day would scarce arise to the
jrade of first degree, having been committed
in beat of blood, a modern murder trial pre
sents a strong contrast. Then the com
munity was stirred to its profoundest depth,
and the matter was discussed on 'Change, in
the corner groceries, at the market stalls, at
the fireside, and ministers of the gospel
seldom failed to find it a topic for impressive
discourses.
But since "hanging is played out in Alle
gheny county," and murderer's row presses
on the space intended for other criminals in
the jail, public sense seems to have been in
a great measure dulled. "We haven't time
to talk long over the latest sensation in this
line.
There is a murder trial now in progress in
Oyer and Terminer Court that 30 years ago
wonld have drawn an immense audience,
and it is more than usually inirc ssive on
account of the mystery surrounding it.
But there beiug no seats furnished for the
lobby in the iniall courtroom in which the
prisoner is arraigned, the crowd is not so
great as it otherwise would be.
MYERS ON TEIAL FOE HIS LIFE.
James Edward Myers, a splendid speci
men of budding manhood physically, and
apparently mentally above the average, is
arraigned charged with the crime in its
most heinous aspect, the victim being not
only his aunt, but also his foster mother,
and he the being on whom she had lavished
a mother's love. Myers was laultlessly
dressed in black, linen immaculately clean,
collar and cuffs carefully arranged, and his
general appearance, though interested, was
one of rather negligent case. The victim
nas Miss Margaret Douglass, a spinster of
65 years, sister ot the prisoner's mother and
joint heir with him ot the property both oc
cupied in the suburbs of McKcesport, it
having been left to the sisters by their
lather
On the 15th of list May, about 1:30
o'clock r. ai., Myers, the prisoner, reported
that he had found his aunt lying dead in
the yard ot the residence, stating also that
the doctor had said she had heart trouble
and expressing the opinion that beyond
doubt she had died of heart disease. After
she had been carried into the house a phy
sician discovered that sne had been shot in the
back, the ball lodging in the stomach.
ALTVATS ASSEBTS HIS INNOCENCE.
As the neighbors did not recollect of having
seen an? one about the honse near the time of
the murder, save Myers, and as he and his aunt
had quarreled f requcDtlj on account of his al
leged wild liabits and extravagance, suspicion
attached to him, and he was arrested. His ap
parent callous indifference regarding the lo-s
of one who hud been a mother to him btrength
ened the suspicion. Since the time of the mur
der be has been vcr reticent, but very em
phatic in his denial of guilr.
When anaigncd and called to plead, Myers
stood up unturned, and.tlie neatness of his ap
pearance, his delicate mustache of jet black,
liair carcfull) trimmed, car of aristocratic
mold, together with his dreadlnl position and
unmoved appearance, combined to make him
au object ot close scrutiny.
When the question, " hat say you, are you
guilt or not guilt ?" was put, the prisoner rc
Vlied in the usual formula w ltliout any prompt
inn, and as his plea was not guilty, the impan
eling of a jury was begun.
A jury was not secured until after 1 o'clock.
It looks like a good one. and among its mem
bers are teamsters, grocers, a banker and sev
eral other occupations represented.
District Attorney Johnston and Captain E. Y.
llreck represented the Commonwealth, and
John & Itobb the prisoner. Captain IJreck
summarized all the facts known in the case,
and said the Commonwealth would ask for a
verdict of murder in the nrst degree.
While at present there appears to be nothing
but circumstantial evidence against Myers, it
is thought to be so strong and connecte'd as to
show that no other could hare committed the
crime. The defense places reliance on the hope
of proving au alibi.
HER SECOND TEIAL.
Itlrs. Louisa EngleniHii Conicted of Illegal
Liquor Selling.
Qln Judge Magee's branch of the Criminal
Court yesterday Mrs. Louisa Engleman was
tried for the second time on the charge of
selling liquor without a license. She was rep
resented lij Thomas M. Marshall, Samnel
Ammon and Messrs. Kennedy A Smith, while
the prosecution was conducted by R. S. Mar
tin. Her counsel hrst filed a plea holding that
t-lie was twice bein; placed in jeopardy of her
libert. and the had no right to try her the
econd time. JuUce White's course was ex
rented to, and it was claimed that he had no
right to discbarge the jury upon learnimrthat
they intended to acquit the prisoner. Judge
Magee overruled the plea, and the trial went
on.
The four lawyers worked bard for their
client, but the jury, alter being out bnt a few
minutes, returned a verdict of guilty, and rec
ommended the prisoner to the extreme mercy
of the Court.

HEHET GOTTSCHALX'S MOKTJMENT
Objected to by His Daughtcr-ln-Law on Ac
count of the Price.
A hearing was bad before Judge Over, of the
Orphan's Court, yesterday, on the matter of
the exceptions to the account of the executor
of Henry Gottscbalk. The exceptions were
filed by Mrs. John Gottschalk, the widow of
one of the sons and heirs of the deceased. The
heirs of the estate wero the four sons of Mr.
Gottschalk. One of them, George Gottschalk,
was the executor, and John Gottscbalk was the
husband of the exceptant. The exceptions
were u to the sale ot a piece of property in
Allegheny, claimed to be worth $14000, to the
executor for $8,000; and to the price paid for a
monument for the deceased parents of the four
brothers. The price paid was $600, which, it
was claimed, was excessive. At the hearing
yesterday the testimony showed the property
sold to have been worth from 810,000 to $12,000.
The defense made by the executor was that
the sale of and price for the property and the
erection of the monument had been agreed
upon by the four brothers long before the mar
riage ot the one brother to the exceptant, and
the executor had merely carried out the agree
ment. A decision was reserved.

Mr. John T. Good, who lives at No. 129
Nineteenth street, Southside, is a -window
gkss blower, employed in the Cunningham
Window Glass Co., Limited, on Twenty
third street In a recent interview with the
writer Mr. Good told the following story oi
his own experience:
"For about four years," savs Mr. Good,
"ever since I recovered from an attack of
diphtheria, I had suffered almost constantly
from catarrh. My head and nose would
stop up. I had a continuous dull pain over
my eyes and a rumbling, roaring noise in
my ears. My eyes were weak and watery.
I could feel the mucous dropping back into
my throat and was alwavs hawkin? and
raising to clear it My throat would fill up
at night and I would wake up gasping for
breath, as if I were choking to death. My
throat was raw and inflamed.
Jlfr. John T. Good, 13 Nineteenth Street, South-
side, Pittsburg. Fa.
"As ray troublo crew worse, sharp pains like
the stab of a knife would take me in the chest.
Palpitation of the heart set in. My appetite
failed. The little I ate caused me distress and
nausea at my stomach. My nights were rest,
less. I wonld get up in the morning more tired
than when I went to bed. A short time ago,
after reading so much of Drs. Copeland & Blair
and their wonderful success in cases similar to
mine, I called on them, and finding their
charges so very low I decided to begin their
treatment at once.
"I never made a better resolution," concluded
Mr. Good, "for they have really done wonders
forme. My symptoms all rapidly disapneared,
and to-day I am like a different man entirely."
Drs. Copeland & Blair have their own labora
tory and their own pharmacist, whose whole
time is devoted to preparing the medicines for
their many patients. Every prescription is
compounded under the direct supervision of
the doctors themselves, which accounts to a
certain extent for the invariable positive re
sults of their treatment. To each and every
patient under their care Drs. Copeland A Blair
furnish all medicines tree of charge.
Drs. Copeland & Blair are respopslble to you
