Queer Antic# of Stock Fed I poa Damaged Malt. Lawrenceburg, Ind., Nov, 6.—After the recent fire in the Walsh distillery here, in which a quantity of malt was damaged, Jesse McKinney, a stockman, purchased some of the malt for feeding purposes. The stock relished the feed at first, but evidently fermentation began in the malt, and soon the cattle began showing signs of helpless intoxication. Some sat upon their naunches, swaying their heads from side to side; others staggered about the field, tumbling over one another in the most ludicrous fashion; while many were simply too drunk to stand, although they made desperate efforts to regain their footing.

Holdeman appeared before the grand jury and accused the two commissioners of accepting bribes and with grand larceny. The jury returned an indictment, and the charges will be investigated. Other developments are anticipated before matters are adjudicated. DEFENDED HIS MOTHER. Allie Ragley Shoots Richard Curry to Death at Evansville. Evansville, Ind., Nov.
