The development in the murder case vome rapidly. The differences between Jm kson and Walling got ripe last nLht and the follows be oan squealing on each other. From the latest news it looks as though Scott Jackson deliberately planned the murder and in a way that rivals the efforts of the Inter day murder ers of which we have had a surfeit. A spe'ial from Cincinnati slates that it Wailing is telling even half the truth that instead of takintr Pearl Bryan to Cin.inanii to re lieve of her threatening ruin he deliberately plotted to get away with her by poison or violence so as to free himself of further worry. One who.could plan such a murder wouldn’t be bothered much about having the nec< '.-.an nerve to carry around the head of the victim fora

It seems to lie a Struggle between Jackson and Walling now to in criminate each other. A fair view of the tuattci, however, would place the blame on the one iu"8t inter ested, rather than a loorn mate who had no previous acquaintance with the girl. It is thought by many that both the men were present at the death. Jackson showed vieiousl temper when lie was accused by Walling and dispatches state would have k.ilid Walling had not ollicers interfered. Walling said at mid night that Jackson had told him

In support of his theory timt lie was not a prisoner, Wood pointed to the fact that he was go ing back to Newport without lequi sitiou papers, and that he was go ing without manacles or shaekles. Wood was iiu t hero by his father, the Uev. I). M. Wood, of Green castle, who, with his local attorney A. N Grant, formerly of Kokomo, accompanied the young Mr. Wood! and the ollicers to Cincinnati.
