A TRAIN BURIED
By An Avalanche of Snow Several Miles
From Seattle, Wash.
REPORTS ARE MEAGRE
Hut it is llolieved Mint Twenty-throe
Persons llnvc lloen 1/ost in the
Know Slides on the (trout Northern
Kail r<?a<l by tin* Destruf tion of
tho Train.
A Seattle, Wash., dispatch savs roiiorts
from Wellington say that 211
lives are believed to have been lost
in the avalanche that overwhelmed
tho Great Northern's Spokane express
Tuesday morning. Two passenger
trains, seven locomotives and Superintendent
O'Neill's private car were
buried. O'Neill escaped injury.
The Great Northern Spokane
train, that has been stalled on the
summit of the Cascade Mountains
since last Thursday, was buried by a
slide early Tuesday. It is believed
there must have been loss of life.
A relief train has gone from Everett,
but it. will not be able to get
within ten miles of the train.
The stalled train was about two
miles west of the west portal of the
Cascade tunnel and the track was
open to the tunnel. At the Great
Northern headquarters the number
of persons on the train is given as
thirty. Two passengers, who came
out and walked over the ten miles
which is blockaded, gave the number
of persons on the train as more than
Ixty, of which fifty-one were passengers.
Anions! them were several
women and children.
News of the burying of the train
came in a telephone message from
Scenic Hot Springs, but connection
was lost before any particulars could
be otallied.
A dispatch from St. Paul says the
Great Northern officials have received
word that train No. 25, which
runs between Seattle and Spokane,
Wash., was swept off the tract and
buried by a snow slide at Wellington,
Wash., at 5:30 o'clock Tuesday
morning.
Information Is meagre and it is
not known whether there are any
fatalities. Local officials don't think
that any of the fifty-one were klled
as the train had been stalled at Wellington
for three days, and they
were of the opinion that the passengers
were at hotels in the city.

Chester Kennedy, Implicated in the
Assassination of \V. 1*. I'ssery,
Must Servo Sentence.
A life time sentence in the State
Penitentiary is .). Chester lvunedy's
fate, the Sprneme Court Saturday
atllrining the judgment of the Circuit
Court in the famous Harnwell
assassination case. For being acres
s >ry to the murder of . rerry i ssery.
who was shot to death on the
night of November *JS, 1908, in the
town of Barnwell, Kennedy was given
a term of years in prison that
so many men spoils worse than the
death penalty.
The whole story of how Perry
Ussery mot his terrible death will
perhaps never be known to the world,
but enough of this crime came out
at the trials in Barnwell, enough was
discovered by a Binkorton detective
to centre the killing about three
persons; one of them, a negro, was
a tool in the hands of the Other
conspirators, so it appeared.
A part of the alleged confession
of th o negro, Quitman Johnson, if
that confession is true, tells more
than does all the testimony in the
ease of the nature of the crime for
which Kennedy is to spend the rest
of his days in prison.
"Mr. Holland was standing at the
place where they struck something
and rang a bell, talking to the women,"
said Johnson in this confession,
after he had been convicted of
murder. "(Irubbs told me that was
Holland, and that Chester would give
me $100, and that Chester said the
woman in Augusta would give me
$100 if we killed him. I told him
"if we get in trouble them Kennedy's
are not going to help us.'
He said, 'Yes the would and that the
woman in Augusta would h*lp us.'
He left me and went off and coma
back through the alley and come to
me. Ho got mo and showed me
where ho had put the gun. When he
was showing mo Mr. Hollasd and
the other man walked up, and he
showed1 me Mr. Holland while he
was walking up. A ad tluiy oonie
and stood up there and (lrinked whiskey.
I took up the gun and made
one or two attempts to shoot, but
my heart failed me a while and then
I shot and ran, as stated by witnesses.
Crossed the (bridge and met
Hoise Green and Parsons, as stated,
and Grubbs met me where Parsons
says I was on the hill. Me and Grubbs
goes home. We went on to Hurg-ss
Kennedy's and told him about
it."
On the stand during liis own trial,
Johnson' had made a different statement,
placing Grubbs, the old man,
in his place whenever he referred
to the plot or to the shooting. It
was a?lso pointed out at tho time
of Johnson's confession that he had
said that Kennedy told him to bring
the gun to him. Ileforo he could
deliver tlie gun he was arrested.
During the trial of Chester Kennedy.
Quitman Johnson said in regard
to tho shooting:
"These men were standing there
talking to a white man. He went off
and got the gun and brought it down
through the little lane. (This refers
to Grubbs.) 1 picked Mr. Holland
with another man and he went and
showed me where the gun was and
where he put the overcoat. Mr. Hoi
land was walkinfl up there with this
man, and he showed me Mr. Holland
and 1 shot and shot thn wrnn tr man '
This is the story, in brlof, of tin
killing. It is for the hiring of Quitman
.Johnson and Ferdinand Grubbs
to kill Marvin Holland, according tc
the testimony and the resultant kill
ing of Perry Ussery that Chestei
Kennedy is guilty of murder.
Summed up in one sentence by tin
Supremo Court's decision is tin
story, as far as it is known of th*
killing of Perry Ussery: "There vvai
testimony to show that thorj wa:
conspiracy to kill Marvin Hollai d
and that Ussery was hot by mis
tab*.* for Holland."
Marvin Holland, on th? stand, totof
the feeling between himself an<
Kennedy. Hoi laud said that Ken
?e.jy had told him: "I ha ? confidei
a few things to you, tha: .f you eve
mention 1 will blow you.* ? brain

"A Furnior" Thinks I^KislHturp Did ,
Well to Kill (ho Bill.
Vance, Feb. 2 8?Special: Willi
you allow me apace in your paper for
a few lines referring to tlio hunters
license bill which was killed by the
house. Now, Mr. ISdii >.*, I saw in
your paper the State editorial says
the farmers ignored. 1 think the
legislature did wise in killing the
gun or hunters license. 1 think we
have law enough if we would e u'orcc
it. The only way to do this is for
I ho farmers to forbid hunting on
their lands. This would be more effective
than the Audubon Society.
They don't seem to get very far
away from town anyway. The gun
tax would make everybody pay that
kept a gun whether ho kept it for
hunting or not. If tho land owners
would post their lands against hunting
and keep si>ortsnian off, and all
' others, there would soon be plenty
of birds to do some good. Fifty
cents por gun would give tho Audubon
society money enough to sport
proper, and the poor farmer would
have tho bill to pay. A Farmer.
