The Negroes Return to Kentucky. From Friday's daily. The negroes who were brought up from Kentucky to take the place of the striking white miners at the Grape Greek mines, have been persuaded by the strikers to return to Kentucky. The operators refused to pay the fare of the colored men for their return to Kentucky, and the miners made up the money themselves and sympathizers to send them back on. The required fund is now made up and all of the negroes have returned.

Wm. Lutz Fires Back Again at Dr. Leachman. BURNETT, Ind., July 14,1886.—To the GAZETTE: AS the Leachman family seem ever ready to resort to the papers in private affairs, it invariably ends in an advertisement of J. S. Leachman, M. D. I will follow the golden rule and return good for evil by answering his card and thereby give him another chance to see his name in print. Now, J. S. Leachman says I left the medicine on the mantle without any one's consent. Mrs. Leachman said she would take it and thanked me for it and 'I told Jxerl would not leave it unless she would take it. The medicine which cured the doctor's wife is that which he said was horse weed and dog grass. If he does not know any more of medicine than to pronounce it horse weed and dog grass, it is no wonder that he has not cured his wife of a blood disease and not of cancer.

Cable-

JJe is Summoned to Europe by a gram. Emory P. Beauchamp reoeived a cablegram yesterday afternoon from his wife, who is at Cologne. The cablegram read: "Papa krank. Komm," which being translated means, "Pppa is sick. Come." Mrs. Beauchamp's father is quite an old gentleman and has been in feeble health for some time. This cablegram would seem to indicate not only that he is dangerously ill but that liis life is despaired of. Mr. Beauchamp answered that he would go at once. He will probably sail from New York Saturday.

Continuation ot tbe Trial of Bishop for Wife Murder.

Judge McNutt of the Counsel for the Defense, Says He Admits Bishop Killed His Wife,

But Insists That He Did Nnt Mur der Her.

David H. Beeves was called to the witness stand about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. He is barkeeper at L. D. Sirronia's saloon, and testified that the McFarland gi ^ame to the saloon on murder and said she there. Bishop came he had seen Jennie, at Em Morey's and he -e d—n her I will kill her." Bishop sober.

the night of t\ was to meet Bi and asked her. She said she wi said "if she is tl

Em Morey, in iose house the deed was committed, was called to the witness stand next. She looks like a woman who has seen a great deal of the world in the 22 years she has lived. She is rather fleshy and* was attired in plain but neat dress. The attorneys questioned and cross-questioned her very closely, her testimony being the most important in the trial. She said she had known Bishop about seven months. He paid frequent visits to Jennie Fipps, who was an inmate of my house. They were married Dec. 31st. and lived for a few months at his mother's house, when they moved on south Fourth street and lived one month and then moved to Mrs. Carson's No. 936 south Third. She visited Bishop's on Thursday before the shooting and heard Bishop and his wife quarreling. They went home with me and stayed until 11 o'clock when they returned. Jennie came to my house at midnight and I let her in. At o'clock Bishop came and asked if his wife was in there and I said no. He said he would hunt her up and left. He called again at 3 and asked if she had come. I said she had not. said he would fix her when he found her. He returned at 6 o'clock and entered my house and saw his wife lying in bed. He asked her to go with him but she refused Baying he had treated .her cruelly. He asked her again, but she would not go. He said "you will never live with anyone else then d—n you" and shot her. The witness was then oross-questioned by the defense. She said she had lived here fourteen years and had kept a sporting house one year. "Bishop visited Jennie in my house three days" said she "before he married her."

Mr. Chas. Roedel was called and testified that he saw Bishop on the morning of the shooting talking to a woman on the corner of First and Ohio streets. Later he saw him go towards the river and change a revolver from the hip pocket to his coat pocket.

Court then adjourned until today. TODAY'S EVIDENCE. The Morey woman was placed on the stand again this morning. She said that she was afraid of Bishop. Several other questions were asked but were objected to by the counsel for the defonso.

Tommy Beeley, aged 15 years, teetified that he lived with Em Morey and was at her house on the night of the murder. "I was sleeping in the back room" said he. "I came in and saw him shoot his wife. He said 1 will settle the whole d—n thing' and fired. He drew a revolver on Em Morey, butj she knocked it out of his hand. She screamed and he ran out of the house. I was in the room at the time of the shooting."

The counsel for defense admitted that Mrs. Bishop was dead and killed by a bullet and the testimony from the physicians was not taken.

The witnesses for the defense are: James M. Daniels, Chas. Grubb, Harry S. Smith, Mrs. Denehie, Mrs. Watts, Ihos. J. Johnson, J- R. Blumfield, Mrs. Dunn, Wm. Stump, Chas. Thomas, Andrew Watson and Dr. Preston, Wm. Smith.

JAMBS DANIELS,

Bishop's cousin, was first called. He testified that he saw Bishop on the evening of the murder at about 7 o'clock. "I returned home at 10 o'clock and went to bed. At 12 o'clock I heard a uoise and got up to get my revolver and found it gone. I always kept it loaded. I next saw the revolver at Curry's feed stable."

Judge MoNutt then made his opening speeoh to the jury lasting forty minutes. He said that the defendant had a reputation as a peaceablayoung man of general good conduct. He became desperately in love with the Fipps woman and married her knowing she was an inmate of Em. Morey's. After the marriage Bishop tried to get his wife to sever her connection with the Morey woman. He amply supplied her with the necessities of life. The Morey woman contrived a scheme to get the wife to leave her husband and go with another man as his mistress. In the afternoon before the murder Bishop's suspicions were aroused and his mind fras distracted. The counsel for th0 defense said in conclusion that he did not deny Bishop had killed the woman bvtt he did deny he had murdered her. 1

breeders of the United known the defendant sinoe a boy and

went to school with him. His character as a quiet, peaceable boy was good. "At 1:30 on the night of the murder," said the Sergeant, "he came up to me at the Union depot crying and asked me if I had seen his wife. I told him I had not. We looked through the train, which was getting ready to pull out but did not find her. I told him I would help him hunt her after I had finished my work and arranged to meet him in an hour. He was at the appointed place before that time and left before I arrived.

Chas. Grubb testified as follows: "I have known Bishop for 15 or 18 years and was pretty well acquainted with him. He was always a peaceable young man."

Thomas L. Johnson testified as follows: "Have known defendant for five or six years and do not know anything against him. He worked for me. \ym. Smith testified that he had known Bishop for two or three years. Saw him after the murder and advised .him to give himself up and he asked me to take him up town, which I did.

Court then adjourned until 1:30. Court convened promptly at 1:30 this afternoon. Em Morey was placed upon the witness stand and was cross-exam-ined regarding any ill-feeling she may have entertained for Bishop before the murder. She testified that she had .9Q ill-feeling against him.

The riding bailiffs and all the walking bailiffs were pressed into service in getting the witnesses at the court room which was not accomplished until after 2 o'clock. Afoot bailiff was appointed to go after one of the bailiffs. One of the witnesses arrived in an intoxicated condition and the judge ordered him taken to the county jail to cool off, which was done.

Dr. Preston testified that he had known Bishop for three years and had treated him prior to the murder. The disease, one of loathsome character, had been of long standing. He did not follow my instructions and the last time I examined him his condition was worse than previous. It had very much impaired his general health, He complained of general weakness and pains about the heart. He had a quick pulse and seemed to suffer from general ner vdus and mental depression. The disease is very generally attended by mental depression, despondency and great irritability, both of mind and pulse. It was a severe case. He was sober when I last saw him before the killing.

GEORGE BISHOP, the murderer was' then placed on the witness stand. His testimony was given deliberately and he never once contradicted himself. He said he was 25 years old. He first met Jennie Fipps last winter in a restaurant. She was then living with Em Morey over Frank Lee's saloon He visited her a good many times before they were married. "After our marriage" said he,

I told her she must quit associating with sporting people and with Em. Morey. I frequently found her at Em Morey's and when I got her home I reminded her of her promise to give up Em Morey. She said she was afraid of her. On Friday night we wept to bed in a good humor. I woke up the night and found her gone. I asked Lucy McFarland where'she was. She said she knew Lucy was going away but did not know she was going that night. She thought Mrs. Bishop was going with O'Bourke. I then went to Jude Carr's but my wife was not there. He is still testifying as the GAZETTE goes to press.

The examination of Bishop continued about half an hour after the GAZETTE'S last acooint. The prosecution placed him under a very rigid crossexamination and developed some evidence which is considered damaging to the defense. Bishop testified that the revolver was accidentally discharged in his hands. The counsel for the defense in the opening remarks to the jury stated that they would not deny that Bishop killed his wife but insisted that he did not murder her. Bishop still further testified that he had no intention of killing his wife when he pulled the revolver out of his pocket. "Then why did you pull it out," asked the prosecution? "I don't know why I pulled it out." Bishop said he did not know he had killed his wife at the time he left the house and said he ran for fear of being arrested for discharging a revolver and for carrying concealed weapons. He said "I never did like the looks of an officer and have never been arrested before. I did' not tell Em Morey that if I found my wife I would kill her. Yes, she was in the habit of doing as she pleased. Em Morey was an enemy to me and to my wife.

James Brumfield then called and testified as *an expert gunsmith. His testimony put a much brighter aspect on the state of affairs for the defense. He testified that he examind the revolver shortly after the murder and that the strong and the

cooked^ The revolver was produced and an effort was made to cock it but it wuuld not catch and the hammer would fly down. This is important evidence in Bishop's favor.

Em Morey Was called again. She testified that she did not hear O'Bourke's name mentioned on the night of the murder. Jennie asked her to tell Bishop, if he came to the house, that she was not there because- she thought he would kill her. "I did not want to let her come in my house at first."

Coroner Kornman was called and testified that as scon as he got the revolver he took it around to Brumfield's to have the load taken out. The reTolver .would stand cocked when he tied it "It is not" said he, "in the co udition it was when I last saw it."
