Sentatlon In Capitol Graft Trial Bat tleships on the Pacific Hitchcock tc Manage Taft Campaign Franco a Fugitive Caid MacLean Released. Extra Week's Pay. Former County Judge James Har gis of Jackson, Ky., for a number of years member of the state Dem ocratic executive committee, accused of complicity In many killings and a prominent figure In the feuds whlck have disrupted Breathitt county for several years, was shot and Instantly killed in his general store at Jack son by his son, Beach Hargls. The son fired five shots In rapid succession at his father, who fell dead while his clerks were waiting on customers. He came into the store apparently under the influence of liquor. Judgp Hargls, is Is said, spoke to his son about drinking and a quarrel resulted. Father and son stepped behind a counter, when the son, after only a few minutes conversation, drew a re volver ar.d fired five shots. Four took effect, Judge Hargls falling dead. Judge Hargis had 'long been promi nent In Kentucky political circles and has figured In the courts in the moun tains for years on account of the mur ders of Dr. Cox, Attorney James B. Marciim and "Jim" Cockrill. Judge Hargls was the political leader of the Democrats in the Tenth district and was the "boss" of Breathitt county. For years I.is sway was not opposed, but some years ago Attorney Marcum bad the temerity to oppose Hargls In a law case. From that date Marcum was a marked man. Hargls iad been on trial at various times for complicity In the murder of Marcum, Cockrill and Cox, but had secured an acquittal on all the charges. He was recently forced to pay a court Judgment of $S,000 to Mrs. Marcum In connection with the death of her husband. Mrs. Marcum had sued Judge Hargls and others for $100,000, alleging that they caused the death of her husband. The Hargls-Cockrlll feud, out of which grew the numerous tragedies with which Judge Hargls' name Is linked, had its Inception In a political contest. The Harglses had long been politically dominant In Breathitt county, where they had large busi ness interests. The brothers, James, Alexander and Elbert, accumulated what Is regarded in the mountains as a fortune. The trouble with the Cockrllls arose when the Cockrllls opposed the Har glses at the polls. Feeling was bit ter. One day Benjamin Hargis. ft younger brother of Judge James Har gls, was killed in a pistol fight with one of the Cockrill boys. In the fall of 1902 came the first murder In the feud. Dr. Cox, the guardian of the Cockrill boy3. was the victim. Dr. Cox lived on the out skirts of Jackson. s he was enter ing his pate one night he .ras killed by assassins. Afterwards John Smith, John Abner and others of the alleged Hargis band were accused of the crime, and one of them confessed that Judge Hargis hired them to kill Dr. Cox. The next to fall was Jim Cockrill, the town marshal. But Bhortly after the murder of Cockrill. when Interest had been mildly aroused, James B. Marcum, the attorney for the Cock rill boys, created a tremendous sen sation by going to Lexington and pub licly declaring that he was a "marked man" and that he had been doomed to murder by the Hargis clan. One day In 1903 .Marcum was stand ing at the door of the court house in Jackson talking to Captain Ewen, after noted as a witness, when a shot rang out. Marcum fell dying, but the assassin stepped up and, to make sure, shot him again through the back of the head. The assassin was "Curt" Jett, the "wild dog," who has since -nfessed his part In this trag edy, and who was accused of the others. He and "Tom" White are now serving life sentences In the penitentiary- Sensation In Capitol Graft Trial. The trial at Harrisburg, Pa., of Contractor Sanderson and three for mer state officers charged with con spiracy In furnishing the new Capitol took a sensational turn when Stanford B. Lewis, assistant to Architect Hus ton, declared with dramatic earnest ness that Huston's letter to ex-Attor ney General Carson explaining his part in the contracts had been prepar ed at the suggestion of ex-Governor Pennypncker. ex-Auditor General Snyder, one of the defendants, and Mr. Carson, and that It was "mislead ing and intended to be a whitewash." The letter to which Lewis referred was one of a series written during November and December, 1906. in re sponse to the Carson Inquiry into the Capitol scandal. Lewis was being subjected to a se vere cross-examination by Mr. Gil bert of counsel for the defenso about the letter, and when asked If certain statements made by Huston were true, the witness demanded the right to explain the circumstances under which It was written. He then told n story which aston ished every one In the court room ex cept the lawyers for the common wealth. According to Lewis, when It came, to Burton's turn to write an answer io Mr. Carson, Lewis was telephoned to come to Harrisburg by ex-Governor Pennypacker and Snyder and the let ter was prepared at a conference with these two officers and the ex-attorney general to "dovetail" In with others prepared by state officers connected with the construction and equipment of the Capitol. Mr. Gilbert had Lewis identify the Huston letters and then forced the witness to admit that the architect's statements to the effect that he had weighed and measured articles of furniture for the Capitol were prac tically false and made for a purpose. Erie Opposes Change of Route. Representatives of the Erie Rail road company appeared at Albany before the public serylce commission in the Second district In opposition to the application of the Pittsburg, BInghamton and Eastern railroad for authority to change its original route within New York state. The compa ny proposes to build a coal carrying road from Clearfield, Pa., to BIng hamton, connecting with the Dele ware and Hudson at that city. The Erie Railroad company contends that the new route parallels for thirty miles various existing railroads which are not affected by the route originally laid out and which was approved by the former state board of railroad commissioners; also that an entirely different set of localities Is affected by the proposed change. Hitchcock to Manage Taft Campaign. Announcement was made in Wash ington of the approaching retire ment from the postal service of Frank H. Hitchcock, first assistant postmaster general. Mr. Hitchcock will assume the active management of the campaign of Secretary Taft for the Republican nomination for the presidency. The retirement probably will occur Feb. 1C.

Sev eral weeks ago Mr. Hitchcock was re quested by Secretary Taft to under take the management of his cam paign. The secretary recognized in Mr. Hitchcock a valuable man to take charge of the indefinite details of the campaign to which the secretary of war himself did not have the time to devote. Sawmill Dumpings Destroy Fish, Word was received at the office of the New York state forest, fish and game commission from Johnstown that Supreme Court Justice Spencer had handed down a decision in line with the contention of the state de partment, that sawmills, by dumping sawdust In the streams of the state Inhabited by fish, prevent the fish from breeding, although the full grown fish are not actually killed. It Is stated that GOO sawmills of North ern New York will be affected by this ruling, which holds that the dumping of such refuse matter Into the streams Is a violation of law. Action was brought against Oren B. Lapelle of Long lake, Hamilton county, for the enforcement of the penalty, the case being a test to secure a judicial con struction of the Inw. Franco Flees From Lisbon. The secret and sudden flight of Senhor Franco, the former premier and dictator, from Lisbon across the frontier Into Spain, accompanied by his wife and son, was caused by the threats of death which had been made against him. Since the murder of the king Franco has been in re ceipt of many letters, all threatening vengeance. Two of Franco's ministers have also disappeared. Senhor Carvalho, It Is said, fearing reprisals after the mur ders, hid himself In the garret of the ministry of finance until he saw an opportunity to flee from the city, while Dr. Abrau, the former minister of Justice, it Is believed took his de parture some days ago.

FOR TWO BATTLESHIPS Recommendation of House Na val Affairs Committee. Two New Battleships to Cost $9,500, 000 Each and to Be of the Delaware Type Eight Instead of Four Sub marine Torpedo Boats Recommend ed, to Be of the Octopus Type. Washington, Feb. 11. By a vote of thirteen to five, one member absent and not vollng, the bouse committee of naval affairs rejected the presi dent's urgent recommendation that congress at this session authorize the building of four battleships at a total tost of $38,000,000, and by a unani mous vote there was included In the navy appropriation bill an authoriza tion for the construction of two, to cost $9,500,000 each, and to be of the Delaware type. These representatives voted In ac cordance with the president's recom mendations: Lllley of Connecticut (Rep.), Thomas of Ohio (Rep.), Meyer of T-nulslana (Dem.), Talbott of Maryland (Dem.) and Hobson of Ala bama (Dem.) Hobson Insists on Four Battleship. Representative Hobson announced after the committee meeting that he Intended to make a minority report recommending authorization for four battleships. "But the authorization merely Is not enough," he said. "It should In clude an actual appropriation so that the work of construction would begin without a moment's unnecessary de lay. Even so it would be three years before these vessels could be made ready to go into commission, and this country has no time to lose." The preference of the committee stood In favor of a four battleship au thorization, but the voting attitude of the majority was expressed by Chair man Foss when he said: "Experience has shown that It Is more profitable In the end to recom mend In the beginning what you know the house will stand for. A recommendation for four battleships could not be put through at this ses sion." The naval appropriation bill as amended and agreed upon by com mlttee carries a total appropriation of $101,000,000 for the navy establish ment for the next fiscal year, about $24,000,000 less than was asked for In the department estimates. Under the head of new authoriza tions, for whose fulfillment congress Is bound to appropriate money at the next session If the bill as recommend ed passes the house and the senate, the committee Included two battleships to cost $19,000,000; ten destroyers, $8,500,000; eight submarine torpedo boats, $3,010,000; total, $30,540,000, or $38,730,000 less than the total for new authorization asked for by the navy department. The new authorization estimates re jected by the committee comprised the following: Two battleships. $19,000,000; four scout cruisers, $10,000,000; one am munition ship, $1,750,000; one repair ship, $2,000,000; two mine laying ships (cruisers to be converted), $500, 000. Eight Submarine Torpedo Boats. The committee, however, raised from four to eight the number of sub marine torpedo boats asked for; held over for further consideration and In corporation In a special bill the mat ter of providing fleet colliers; appro priated $400,000 for the purchase, within the discretion of the secretary of the navy, of three so-called sub surface torpedo boats, their accept ance by the government to he contin gent upon the fulfillment of depart ment requirements; and Included an appropriation of $1,000,000 to enable the recruiting of 3,000 additional en listed men to man newly completed battleships, and authorized the re cruiting of 3,000 more to become avail able after the 1st of July, as recom mended by the secretary of the navy and urged by the president. No provision was made for the building of a drydock at Pearl Har bor near Honolulu. The doubling of the department's estimate of four sub marine torpedo boats needed was largely Influenced by letters and peti tions from Pacific coast chambers of commerce, more than a score of which were received by members of the committee. These boats by the adoption of an amendment offered by Representative Loudsenlager of New Jersey are to be of the Octopus type, In accordance with the report of the Marix board before whom last year's tests off New port were made. The effect of this amendment, If the house and senate concur In the committee's report, may be to nullify the court decision by which the secretary of navy gained the right to consider the Iake type of boat as an aftercompetition com petitor.

Tommy Burns, the American heavyweight pugilist, last nieht knocked out Jack Palmer of Newcastle, the English champion, In the fourth round or what was scheduled 'to be a 20-round contest for the heavvweiuht championship. Some 'two thousand persons saw the fight which took place at wonder land, a big music hall on the east side, but it was a one-sided affair from the uniind of the first nong until the mid dle of the fourth round, when Palmer, on his knees, was finally counted out. The referee mleht have given a de cision in the first minute of the con- iPHt na Palmer was a beaten man from the moment he entered the ring. Burns climbed under the ropes sm'l Ing and Bhowing his customary confi dence, while Palmer displayed great nervousness. Without any prelimin ary sparring Burns went after him, and the first round had hardly begun before the Englishman was on his imoon He took the count twice and during the rest of the round was bus ily engaged In covering himseir. Tki oo vonouteil in each of the other rounds. Palmer being hopelessly outclassed, and apparently wunoui ability either to deliver a teuing diov, or to defend himself. In the final round he was sent to the floor several times and at last v.as barely able to drag himself to his knees, where he remained with his elbows on the floor until after the count of ten had been tolled off. , , . Jem Roche, who has been backed by a syndicate headed by Richard Croker, the former Tammany leader, to fight Burns In Dublin on St. Pat rick's day, was a spectator at the ringside. His only comment was: "Palmer fights like an old woman, while Burns Is a master of the art, and besides was In splendid condl- tlon" The fight was for $2,500 a side and 75 per cent of the gate receipts. The odds were 6 to 4 on the American but there was very little betting, mere were no takers for bets offered by Palmer that he would stay six rounds. Buffalo People Injured In Wreck.

When the case was tried In the superior court Buenzle was award ed 23 cents damages, this being the sum he had paid for his ticket. The supreme court upholds the flndlug of the superior court, overruling the ex ceptions taken by the defendant, and remits the case to the superior court for entry of judgment upon the ver dict.
