Mayhall, pastor of the Baptist church at New Maysville, where the body will be taken for burial. y Doctor Taylor told of the good work done by Doctor Long, and he asserted that the physician’s death left a vacancy in medical circles and in the citizenship of the state that never can be filled. Road Dedication at Fort Wayne. Fort Wayne.—The first completed stretch of concrete roadway on the Lincoln highway from coast to coast was dedicated here with elaborate ceremonies, which were made notable by the presence of VicePresident Thomas .R.

Pardington of Detroit, Mich., national secretary of the organization. This stretch of concrete is six milfes long and links Fort Wayne with New Haven. Over this portion of the highway went a parade of 1,500 motor cars in a dedicatory procession Eight hundred of the cars were decorated in elaborate manner, and prizes were awarded to the most beautiful and most laughable cars. The parade took two hours to pass a given point. Dig for Pot of Gold. Evansville. —Inspired by a story that appeared in a paper here, gold hunters for the last several days have been digging at nights beneath large poplar and oak trees on Coal Mine hill, two miles west of the city, in the hope of finding a pot containing $5,000 in gold coin. No lost treasure has been recovered, but about twenty-five trees, each one hundred years old, have been ruined by the fortune seekers. The gold seekers read of a man who died in Kentucky, across the river from Evansville, many years ago, and of ho_w, before he died, he pulled across the Ohio river in a skiff and buried in gold in a pot under the roots'uf a large tree. Owners of Coal Mine hill have found holes in the grouffd "as large as graves or cisternsr aptl it will require considerable work to fill them. Bullet Goes Wild. Sheridan. Jealousy is said to have prompted a shooting affair here, in which Miss Marie Kirby, her mother, Mrs. Madison Kirby, and Lester Brandenburg were the targets. One shot was fired but the bullet went wild. The weapon seemingly was aimed at all three. Mace Remson was later arrested by Marshal McCarty. The latter’s theory is that Remson fired the shot when he discovered Brandenburg talking to the mother and daughter. Remson has been attentive to Miss Kirby. McCarty declares that Remson had been drinking and that the pistol, which was later found in a pile of weeds, showed that a second cartridge had been snapped hut had failed to explode.

Great Britian s Note to America Defends Seizure.

(Continued from page one.)

Lord Crewe is that the Britfsh concessions fall short of American rights. Two paragraphs of Lord Crewe’s memorandum were considered of special importance as indicating that Great Britain intends to tighten rather than loosen, her blockade. These were: His majesty’s government 'will be prepared hereafter to give special consideration to cases presented to them and involving particular hardships, ts the goods concerned are required for neutral governments or municipalities, or in respect of works of public utility and where payment can be shown to have been made before the first of March, 1915. W ith the above exceptions his majesty's government regret they .cannot continue to deal through the diplomatic channel with individual cases, but they would again point out that special provision is made for the consideration of sucn cases in the prize court. Paragraph 16 was taken to mean that hereafter the United States would experience greater difficulty in getting any goods from any port which Great Britain regards as an enemy port, and paragraph 17 is taken to be notice that Great Britain intends to end further diplomatic discussion of her seizures. New Note to Britain Ready. These positions of Great Britain, it is thought, will increase the demand in the United States for a definite understanding between the United States and his majesty’s government as to the extent which Great Britain proposes to interfere* with American commerce beyond the point which the United States under the state department’s interpretation of international law concedes it has the right to interfere. A new note to Great Britain has been under consideration by the department for some time, and as Lord Crewe gives no assurance that Great Britain intends to discuss at an early date the principles laid down by the United States in its note of Xiarch 30, further insistence upon those principles probably will be made by the United States without much delay. The British embassy announced that in cases where it was impossible for American shippers tQ get goods out of Germany before June 15 the time has been extended. It will be necessary, however, for shippers to show that they had not time up to June 15 to get their goods out of Germany. The embassy states that the British consular authorities at Rotterdam have been informed as to the conditions connected with the permits in these cases.

HELD AS ALLEN SLAYER

CORONER’S JURY CHARGES NEGRO WITH MURDER. Joseph Campbell Accused of Killing Wife of Warden at Joliet Penitentiary. Joliet, 111., June 25. —The coroner’s jury ( which conducted the inquiry into the death of Mrs. Edmund Allen, wife cf the warden of the penitentiary, decided -after a long debate to hold Joseph Campbell, a negro convict, on a charge of murder. Tacit doubt of Campbell’s guilt was expressed in the verdict, wTiich stipulated that the chafge against Campbell should not preclude suspicion against others. Officials at the prison were directed to continue the quest into circumstances surrounding the fire in which Mrs. Allen lost her life Sunday morning, in the hope of revealing evidence that will prove Campbell’s innocence or more clearly reveal his guilt. Campbell will be transferred at once to the Will county jail. Representative John P. Devine has arrived here from Springfield to act as Governor Dunne’s representative until further notice. He bears a letter from the governor to Warden Allen. Mr. Devine is a member of the assembly from Dixon, 111. The letter to the warden and Deputy Warden Ryan directs them to give Mr. Devine access to prisoners, particularly those suspected of Mrs. Allen’s murder.

Mr. Devine sent the following telegram to Governor Dunne: "Immediately upon arrival here I talked with Campbell and the other suspects out of the presence of any prison officials. Each suspect declared he had been fairly treated and subjected to no brutality whatsoever. Third-degree talk absolqtely without foundation.” Testimony offered during the threeday session of the coroner’s,Jury has failed to clear up many points in the tragedy. Unless the prison Judas who betrayed his fellow convicts confesses the mystery will remain unsolved.
