of the case. As a matter of fact the pe
[it- tition was sent, in asking Governor
Tillman to commute the sentence of the
ite man on the grouna that he was Insane,
mg1 Governor Tillman sent for Dr. Babcock,
the superintendent of the asylum, and
e asked him to look over the papers and
report whether there was a reasonable
doubt as to the man's sinity. Dr,
Babcock, after reading the papers care.
fully over, could not bit say from thei
that there was such a doubt, and conse
. qtieitly the Governor granted the re
spite. Dr. Babcock will cirefully study
vi, the' pipers and then lie will examint
bli- the man. If he finds that lie is really
insane he will say so to the Governor
'es, and the famous case will be ended by
bh- Lavelle spending the remainder of hi:
(lays in the asylum. It is not improba
at ble, Dr. Biabcock sas's, that the long im

terrible shooting occurred in the upper
iar halt of the court house this afternoon.
L if Thomas donesshot. and probably fatal
ian ly wounded Joe Winters. Five shots
m- were tired, tw- of which took effect.
bhe One entered just under tile left shoul
ice der in front, and, ranging inward arid
backwards, passed out to the rivht of
8 1 the spinal column. The second bulhM,
.he passed through the tie-shy part ->f the
sa- right arm. The other three sho i en -
mn tered a bench near where Winters feil.
tud Some months ago, onie Jone<, a to I
ti gate keeper, was shot from emibush arl!
s- killed. Andrew and Jo- Winters wer
charged with the dee, arreste i :awl
) is Indicted,and the trial for the imirder
[Il of Jones was set for today. Ther
the has been a long standing fetid between
be the Jones and the Winters, and several
m- lights, between them occurred before
5p. the killing of old man Jones.
in- The court room was packed with the
he witnesses for the prosecution andi t he
. defense. doe Winters was clarve(
with the murder and Andrew Wi #Iers
wit,h being ani accessary to the deed.
Joe Winte.is was released from jail a
few days ago on .310,000 botd, but, An
nd drew Winters was conlined In jail.
When the cases were called in the
criminal court today before .I udg An
ell derson, the defendants successfilly
nor pressed a motion for a severance, aid
p1. then the cases were continied until
en the next, session of the c,.urt. Alter
ce (Ldisposing of tile cases, Andrew Wnt ers
to was taken back to jail and Joe Winters
to and his wife remained in the court
m- room to perlectthe bond.
- By this time the court room had
been practically cleared, those remain
no ing in the rooi and halls numbering
3e; not more than twenty people. The
ter lower iall, however, was tilled wit i
f a people who had stopped there to dis
ki cuss the developments in the case. Fi
ier nally, when Winters walked out of the
I Is door and was trying to go down the
mut stairwa), Thomas Jones, who was
ion standing near the head of the step.s
ver opened tire on him, using a double
,il. action, hammerless pistol. The shots
kalf were fired in rapid succession, and the
v reports created the wildest excitement.
re The shots were immediately followed
by the screams of Mrs. Winters, who
the stood over the prostrated forn of her
un- husband, crying, "Tom . ones shot hitm.
iay O1icer Price was about. the first to
me reach Jones. 1'rice was stanfiig in
8-- the court room, behind the cl erk's desk,
:e and jumped over the railing and out of
,wo the door just in time to see Jones fire
the last shot. Winters and others who
jay witnessed the shooLing said that Win
'in- ters fell at the second shot. It is
m- thought the shot throagh the arm was
pie inflicted after Winters had fallen. Wit
be nesses say that Jones did not say a
31 word to Winters as they passed each
other in the hall.
n Jones was standing at the head of t he
It stairway. with his pistol in his hand.
1 Oficer Price had hold of his arm. Sev
r- eral inen, in an excited manner, ran up
e- to Jones, and cried: "Don't, let hm es
ie cape." To these cries, Jones. in a self
vs possessed maniner, said: "I am not go
ay ing to escape. I know what I have
if done, and have no wish to Ilee."
en Jones was at once taken to jail by Of
a licer 1-rice and Deputy Sheri ff Mcan('p
