THOUGHT HIM AT HOME. Neither Scott or Pitzer saw Harrow durInk the next few days and as he did not live in the village, but on the outskirts, they paid no attention to his failure to join them at Oakley, presuming that he was at home on him farm On Tuesday. June 19, Mra Barrow came to Sharorville and going to the Victor Hotel, of which hotel Scott was proprietor. Inquired if he had seen her husband. Scott told her that Barrow had left them at the depot and was taken by surprise when informed that he had not returned home.

search was at once instituted for Barrow and the news that he Was missing spread bron least. Mrx Barrow stated that her husband had told her that he was going to the Fourth National Bank In this city to raw some money He had quite a deposit at this bank, and word soon reached Sharonville that Mr Charles Rothier. the Insurance man of this city, who knew Barrow. had met him coming out of the bank. A to the bank verifled this statement and it was found that Barrow had drawn out 400 Days passed, and the missing man was not heard from, and ugly suspicions grew apace.

On July 3. 1500. man named Boyle. a former hoolmate of Barrow's, arrived in this city and stated that he had met the latter in Chattanooga. few days previously.

and that the missing man had assumed the name of Charles Dumont. Scott accompanied Boyle to the otfice of a notary and had this statement sworn to. Scott then visited Mrs. Barrow and her brother. John Williamson, at the farm.

and displayed the sworn statement. Williamson stated that he belleved Bovle's statement, but Mrs. Barrow scouted the Idea, and said that Scott had pad Boyle to swear falsely. Scott then went to Chattanooga, and, although he heard of Taylor Barrow. or Charles Dumont, the latter had left that city.

Scott then offered $300 reward for the discovery of the missing man, and news came repeatedly. reported seen at one time at Kansas City. later at Ft. Scott. and in 1893 word came that he had been seen in Denver, Colo.

At the time of Barrow's disappearance he was the Butler County agent tor W. H. HIll, of this city. Rumor had connected Barrow's name with that of a grass widow for some time before his disappearance, and it is said that she also disappeared about the same time that he did. But the country' folk would have none of these explanations.

Taylor Barrow had, in their opinion, been murdered. In the meantime Mrs. Barrow. the supposed widow, and her only son lived on the home farm near Sharonville, amply provided for by revenues derived from property owned by the missing husband and lather. The five-year-old son grew to a stalwart youth, but no message ever came from the missing father, and the wife and boy mourned him 88 dead.

A bro Jolm Barrow. left the home farm some years ago and secured a position as motorman on the Vine and Cliften electric road, and at present lives at No. 2833 Falke street, Corryville. NEWS AB FROM THE GRAVE. Yesterday morning a blue-coated messenger boy stopped Barrow as he was leaving his front gate to go to work and handed him the dispatch above referred to.

John Barrow was seen yesterday, and stated that he knew nothing his brother's wanderings: nothing, in fact.

A number of private policemen were confirmed by the board. IRON BALL Strikes a Highes High School Student on the Head, With Probably Fatal Effect. A painful accident befell Chas. Le Count, seventeen-year-old student at Hughes High School, yesterday morning. A number of the boys were taking gymnastic exercise in the big yard that surrounds the school.

Among the appliances used was twelve-pound iron ball. The exercise was being conducted under the supervision of the physical culture teacher, and as the sport was rather dangerous the most of the boys kept their distance from the spot where the ball was employed. Suddenly Le Count ran across the open space, being unaware that the ball had been thrown into the air. He ran directly into the path of its descent, with the result that it struck him squarely on top of the head, and he fell to the ground unconscious before the eyes of his horrified schoolmates. Patrol was called and he was hastily removed to the Presbyterian Hospital, where it developed that the unfortunate lad had sustained concussion of the brain.

The chances are against his recovery. His home is at 1616 Carli street. SLUGGED With a Ball Bat Was Barber Trienen, and He Is Now in the Hospital. James Trienen, barber, aged 44, of 816 Wade street, escorted Lizzie Stewart to her home, at Sixth and Smith streets, yesterday morning. A second later he galloped out of the house with his face covered with blood.

To Officer Satters he said he had been met In the hall by Ed of 1214. Sherman avenue, who bounced a baseball bat on his head. Batters arrested the woman. Lally escaped later by jumping by out of a window. but was arrested Luhn and Plepenbrink.

Jumped on Platform While Conductor Changed Trolleys, And Was Jolted Of When the Ve hiele Started Many Witnessed the Sight. Clarence McClanahan, an boy, whose parents live at 12 West 1 Second street, Newport, was ground to death under the wheels of an Evergreen car at 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The boy sold papers at the Kentucky end of the Central bridge, and the car that his undoing was coming toward Cincinnati. While Conductor Harry Klonne was changing from the single to the double trolley wires the boy caught the front platform guard for a ride.

The motorman, Walter Weber, turned on the full current when he got the signal, in order to make the curve and grade on the bridge approach, and did not notice the McClanahan boy's presence until he saw him release his hold to jump from the car. Instantly the motorman felt the jar as the car wheels passed over the Lad's body. He brought the car to an stant stop. JAMMED UNDER THE TRUCKS. The boy was jammed between the truck board of the rear wheels and the granite blocks; both legs were severed above his knees, hanging by shreds of flesh and muscle: one hand was parted from his arm, and the wheels had disemboweled their victim.

Singularly, death had not been instant; neither had unconsciousness tempered the little fellow's agony. He was extricated le with considerable difficulty taken to the home of his father, William McClanahan, and, around the corner, his shrieks and cries of pain spreading alarm throughout the neighborhood. Four physicians--hastily summoned-Drs. Kearns, Phythian, Stine and Clark, found the sufferer beyond hope, but opiates deadened the keen pain of the last few moments of his life. DIED IN HALF AN HOUR.

Death ensued within half an hour after the mangled body was pulled from beneath the car trucks. The motorman and conductor made round trip with the car and were then arrested at the site of the accident by Officers ('reighton and Hamilton. They were released under the charge of manslaughter on bond of $2.00 each. There were a number of eyewitnesses, many of whom were examined by Coroner Higgins shortly after the accident. He will hear the case before a jury toThere has been much complaint in Newport of boys hanging on moving cars, and the street railway peop'e have made repeated efforts to break up the practice.

EXAMINED By an Insanity Expert Was Fatha Gilliam -Important Point looked By Polica. A question has been raised as to the sanity of Fatha Violet Gilliam. the girl who served poisoned oatmeal to the two children of C. O. Winold, their grandmother and Miss Galvin, a trained nurse, and who after being arrested claimed Mr.

WInold forced her at the point of a revolver to commit the crime. W'inold has proved by a complete of evidence that he was in Toledo at the time she says he was in the city and compelled her to serve the poisoned oatmeal. Both he and the girl, however, were bound over to the grand Jury, although there is no evidence against him, except the girl's charges, which are evidently false. The girl does not seem to realize the seriousness of her position. She is the jolliest prisoner In jail.

She sings, dances and jokes, and at times laughs so hard as almost to become hysterical. Before bringing the case to the attention of the grand jury Prosecuting Attorney Schwartz decided to have the sanity of the girl investigated, and he employed Dr. Beebe, the well-known expert on insanity, to examine her. Accordingly Dr. Beebe and Jail Physician Weatherhead had a long interview with the girl the Jailer's private office yesterday morning.

The physicians decided to make several more examinations of the prisoner before passing finally on the case. Dr Weatherhead stated that from the first time he saw the girl he has been of the opinion that her mind is not altogether balanced. She will also be examined physically, as it is supposed that if her mind is affected it might be due to an abnormal condition of the body. An important point has been raised in regard to the poisoning. This is that the Police Department neglected to obtain any part of the matter that was vomited by the four victims of the alleged poisoning.

This, it is maintained, is the most essential part of the evidence needed to prove that there was any poison in the oatmeal that was eaten by them. The fact that arsenic was tound in the oatmeal left in the bowl does not the prove that there was any of the poison in that was eaten. The only way to positively prove this was to find arsenic in the vomit of the victims. It is now too late to do this. It may be that the sickness of the four persons who partook of the oatmeal was not due to arsenic, but might have resulted from some other cause, such as ptomaine poisoning.

It will then be the burden of the prosecution to prove that there was poison in the oatmeal that was eaten. PLEA OF GUILTY To Assault Accepted From Roberts, Who Killed Carl Prietsch. The trial of Richard Roberts for the killing of Carl Prietsch was suddenly ended yesterday morning and in an unexpected way. The testimony was such that it was apparent that he would never be convicted of the charge of manslaughter, and probably would be acquitted entirely. The state therefore offered to accept plea of assault and battery, and the defense, not desiring to take any chances, agreed to so plead.

The case was then withdrawn from the fury and the accused was remanded for sentence. He had made out good case of self-defense. BROUGHT FROM OMAHA. The remains of the late Mrs. Elizabeth Bowman, a former well-known resident of this city and mother of Mr.

When the case was set for trial he had fled. The wife of Count de Lautrec. who belonged to a family of wealth In Paris, has calied to see him at the prison, and she seemed to be very fond of him.

CONFIRMED By Judge McNeill Is Master's Finding as To Debt of Trustees To Purcell Estate.

The debt of I. J. Miller and Mayor Tafel, as Trustees of the Edward and 1. B. Purcell estates, is now up to the creditors to collect.

This because twice has the Court In effect given judgment against them for $44,755 75. In the Arst instance the special master, Attorney Cleveland, found that amount to be due from the Trustees, because they had overcharged and paid to themselves thousands of dollars as tees and had overcharged for expenses and failed to charge themselves with interest on balances on hand at different times. When his report was filed objections were made, and it was sent back to the master for the purpose of having him make a finding as to what proportion of the total amount should be charged to each estate. A short time ago the supplemental report was fled in the Insolvency Court, showing that the amount to be credited to the J. B.

Purcell estate of the sum due from the Trustees was $27,988 88, and to the Edward Purcell tate $16,766 87. Yesterday Judge McNeill ordered an entry confirming that report, and this is in effect a judgment against the Trustees for the sum found due from them. The Trustees will, of course, file exceptions to the judgment of the Court conArming the report, and the matter will be carried to the higher Courts and delay be had in the final conclusion of this much litigated matter, The Trustees, their report fled, said they had on hand but $2,779 MARRIED IN NEWPORT.
