TRUE BILL AGAINST
AGENT OF SOU. R R
AT MARION TODAY
By Association Press.
Asheville, N. C., July 26.
—A telegram was Received
by the railroad officials here
from Marion which says the
grand jury has reported one
true bill against the ticket
agent there.
This is Taken to indicate
that at least one arrest
will be made during the
afternoon.
Asheville, N. C., July 2G—Assistant
United States Attorney General San
ford spent the early part of today in
conference with the railroad ofiieials
and with Judge Pritcliard.
It is likely he wiil leave this after
noon and will either go direct to Wash
ington or transmit his report by wire
He will report his visit to the state
capital, in an effort to restore peace,
which was fruitless.
Developments are hourly expected
at Marion, where Judge Lyon, of the
superior court, has been holding the
grand jury in session for several days,
foi the purpose, it is assumed of hav
ing ticket agents indicted in the event
Mr. Sanford failed in his peace nego
tiations.
Several superior court judges have
ignored the subject of the conflict be
tween the federal and state courts and
Judge Fred Moore advised against fur
ther indictments of ticket agents but
Judge Lyon at Marion, expressed him
self in the strongest possible terms.
He declared that the ticket agents
were violating the criminal statute and
should be indicted "like a pig or horse
thief."
The assumption is that such explicit
instructons will bring results which in
turn will bring on more habeas cor
pus proceedings.

DEAFNESS .CANNOT BE CURED.
by local applications, as they cannoi
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by cor.sistutional re
medies. Deafness is caused by an in
flamed condition of the mucous lining
ol' the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a numbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely close Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this sube re
stored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an inflam
ed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

Murder
| Stirs
} Chicago, 111., July 26. —With the re
| turn of Frederick A. Magill and bride
[from San Diego, Cal., where they were
arrested, to their old home in Clinton,
| this state, to answer to the charge of
administering poison to Magili's first
i wife, interest in the case has greatly
increased and a large section of Illi
[nois is eagerly awaiting further de-
I velopmentfs. Opinion in the home town
of the former banker is divided on the
question of his guilt. While his past
i record has not been altogether credita
ble he was never known to be guilty
of any serious offense and his former
friends are of the opinion that his pres
ent predicament is due wholly to his
disregard of public opinion in marrying
his former stenographer so soon after
the death of his wife. On the other
hand, there are persons who do not hes
itate to declare their belief in the
truth of the grave charges brought
against Magill, and it is not to be de
nied that there is strong circumstan
tial evidence against him.
Letters Arouse Suspicion.
The letters purporting to have been
left by the dead woman are peouliar
features of the case. To Mrs. Magili's
night dress was pinned a note saying
she had killed herself with strychnine,
and giving directions as to the funer
al. There were three other communi
cations found. One ,of these was ad
dressed to Magill, another to his daugh
ter, 17 years olu, and a third to Miss
Fay Graham, the second Mrs. Magili.
The tenor of these letters were the
same. They exonerated Magill and
Miss Graham from all blame. Miss Gra-
I ham was mentioned as the best friend |
Mrs. Magill had, The father, daughter
'and Miss Graham were advised to stick
to each other, and the daughter was
| told to approve everything her father
1 did. Magill read these leters to many ,
friends, but no one outside of the cor
oner's jury has seen them. The coro
ner's inquest, at the behest of Magill,'
was conducted with secrecy, the coro
ner refusing to make afcy of the de
tails public. It is the theory of the
state's attorney that Magill, aided by
Miss Graham, concocted the letter
scheme and that the woman wrote them
at his dictation.
Raises His Last Cent.
After the death of his wife and his
decision to marry Fay Graham, Magill,
who had already squandered a fortune,
made a final stand in the direction of
money matters. He sold his house and
lot, it is said, drew uis last dollar from
his father's estate and got together
$5,000. With this money he and Miss
Graham and his daughter, Miss Mar
guerite, left Clinton secretly on June
30, last. No one knew the destination
of the trio. Miss Graham, who is the
daughter of respected residents of
Clinton, led them to believe that she
was going to Chicago to secure work
as a stenographer. Magill and Miss
Graham were married in Denver on
July 5. They then proceeded to make
a leisurely tour of the West. On July
13 the pair were arrested in San Diego,
Cal. Both declared that their trouble
was the result of a conspiracy on the
part of the first Mrs. Magill.
Circumstances of Woman's Death.
The first Mrs. Magill was Miss Pet
Gandy, of Dayton, Ohio. The couple
were married in 1889. Mrs. Magill was
a woman of happy diposition and none
of her friends had ever heard her say
anything that would lead to the belief'
that she contemplated taking her own
life. On the evening of May 30 last
she and her husband were out riding,
and they apparently were in good hu
mor and enjoying the outing. The fol
lowing morning Mrs. Magill was found
dead in her bed. The hotly was found
by Magill. With his wife he had retir
ed as usual hour the preceding night.
He testified at the inquest that his wife
had left the bed during the night and
gone to an adjoining room. After the:
body was found, the family physician
pronounced death due to chloroform,'
a bowl of the drug being found, and a
cloth, saturated with it, was found up
on her mouth.
Public Suspicion Aroused.
The sudden death of Mrs. Magill, the
departure of Magill and Miss Graham
from Clinton and the news received
of their early marriage aroused no end
of gossip in their home town. The
pressure of public opinion became so
strong that the state's attorney felt
forced to take radical action. He order
ed an investigation to be made into the
circumstances of Mrs. Magili's death
and in the meantime ordered the ar-1
rest of Magill and his bride on what
he considered sufficient evidence to
warrant their being taken into custody
Magill is specifically charged with ad
ministering poison to his wife, and his
bride is charged with being an accom
plice. The action' of the state's at
torney in bringing the charges is being
supported by nearly the entire popula
tion of Clinton.
