Gov't Reports show Royal BalfJog Powdei mipertor to a'l INNOCENT AS A BABE So Says 'George Sloop Suspected of Wife-Murder, He Has Sold His Farm to Secure Counsel, Some Circumstances That Appear Suspicious, George Sloop, who was jailed at Montieello yesterday for wife murder, was visited in jail last evening by a reporter of the Monticello Herald. He is a middle-aged man ot light build and spare features. He was willing to talk, and in answer to questions he said he never knew there was any suspicion resting upon him until he was arrested. He declares he is as innocent as a three-year-old child, and has no doubt of being able to prove it. He states that his wife was about 43 years old and had been in frail health for a long time.

Her nervous system was disordered, and for some time she had protested against any strangers coming to the house. She was subject to faintin? spells, and on the night of her dea had fallen in a faint and bruised her head. He was much mortified at having to lie in jail, and said he would like to be out His preliminary examination is set for Friday before 'Squire Trowbridge at Burnettsville, and in the meantime the coroner's inquest will be held at the office of the Cass county coroner. Mr. Sloop has retained Reynolds Sills as his counsel, and has deeded them his farm to secure their services.

He has lived on his present place five years and has never before been charged with any crime or misdemeanor. So far as known, his domestic relations were pleasant and he bears the reputation of a good neighbor and a quiet citizen. To the Idaville Observer, Editor Wm. Scales said: "I was about the first one there and when I went to the bed where Mrs. Sloop lay she was cold and stiff in death.

I noticed that there was blood all over pillow shams and also several rops of hlooa on the floor across he room from the bed. The bed lowed that a violent struggle had iken place and the feather tick had een kicked clown to the foot of the d. By this time several neighbors ad arrived and the ladies began reparing to lay out the body. When the body was raised from the lace she died it was found that here was a pool of blood just under er head." Coroner Downey today concluded be examination of witnesses. He ound little in the evidence other lan has already been told.

The oy proved to be far from half fact was the brightest itness in the case. He maintained hat bis mother's death was due to njuries sustained in a fall. The oroner will not return his verdict ntil after he has completed a re- ume ot the testimony. ATHLETICS The L. A.

Open Their Season With a Victory. Defeat Michael's University Team, 8 to 0. Contest Marked By Some Loose Playing, yet The A. C. 's have never tasted the bitterness of defeat.

Last year, they played the entire season through with an unbroken series of victories and yesterday they began the season of '95-'96 with another triumph. This time their foe was the sturdy eleven from Michael's university and the score was 8 to 0. All the scoring was done in the last half; the first being marked by very close --and fierce playing, without material gains being made on either side. In the last half, Deck Howe took the ball in a center play to within a yard of the goal line and Capt Hawkins carried it over for four points. Wilder failed to kick goal.

After the next kick off. the M. had the ball up to their opponents' 20 yard line, when their quarter back by a wretched mis-play tossed the-ball in the air and it was snapped by Uhl of L. A. C.

He ran the length of the field and made a touch down from which no goal resulted. Score 8 to 0. Time was shortly afterward called. Of brilliant playing in yesterday's game, there was very little done, as it is yet early in the season. Both teams worked hard, however.

Good individual work was dODe by Howe, Hawkins, IIhi and Osborne, of the L. A. C's. Howard, Galloway and Hunter did best for the M. U's.

Coach Gifford will have to see to it that some of his young men are not afraid to "get in the game," and know enough to not throw the ball in the air before they play their next game. His team ought to make a strong one with hard work. The teams lined up yesterday as follows. L. A.
