Docket—Burke Anxious to Go en
T rial
l (Special to the Kennebec‘Journal) j
™ Skowhegan, Sept. 17.—Judge Scott.';
Wilson of Portland will convene the
September term of the Somerset
County Supreme court next Tuesday
at which time motions will be offered
for an assignment of n date for the
retrial of John A. Iturke of Jackman
for the murder of Nelson \V. Hartley !
of the same plantation on October 15
last year.
Announcement of the coming of the
court renewed interest int he murder
which thrilled the State last February
when a story of romance, love, trag
edy and death stirred New England
as no other recital of testimony in a
murder trial ever did.
There is a docket sufficiently long
to engage the attention of the court
for at least two weeks, with a possib
ility of the Hurke case being listed for
trial immediately thereafter. The
State is desirous of having an early
date Het but counsel for the respond
ent prefer a later assignment because
of prior engagements.
Judge Wilson was scheduled to hold
the term in Hancock County but it
was arranged for Judge Albert E.
Spear of Gardiner to relieve him, in
anticipation of Judge Wilson's term
continuing through for the murder
trial.
Attorneys for Burke will attend
eourt here Tuesday to ask that the
case he deferred and there is a likli
liood of County Attorney Edward B.
Merrill agreeing, though Judge Wilson
may make an order Cor the trial to
open immediately after the regular
docket cases have been disposed of. I
There are seven new liquor cases as
as well as several other appeals and
the forfeiture proceedings which ac
company them. I
The civil docket will consume the
second week and if attorneys can re
adjust their engagements, the trial
will go on at once.
Burke, in his ulTarters at the county
jail, expressed <i desire that his sec
ond trial proceed without delay and
Mrs. Flossie Burke, his wife, express
ed keen disappointment at prospects
of further delay. She said: “Why
don’Cthcy put him on trial and have it
over with. Further delay is but added
suspense, though I'm sure he'll prove
his Innocence in the end.” .
Messrs. Pattangall and l.cigh,
Burke’s counsellors, together with
County Attorney Merrill held a con
ference with the court at Augusta
several days ago blit no decision was
reached regarding the date of the new :
trial. |

After Death Discover
Veteran Was Deserving.
Indianapolis, Imi, Sept. 17—A case
where a destitute and crippled hero of
the world war died before he was able
to convince the government of the
extent o£,his disability, has been un
covered by the investigators of the
service division of national head
quarters of the American Legion.
Otis Smith, former private, 151st
Infantry, died in a local hospital last
April, three days .after the Legion
had placed him there, as the result of
five wounds received charging a
machine gun next in July 1918. Four
months later his wife passed away.
Eventually the government will pay
out in insurance and compensation
about $14,000 to a surviving step-son.
Hut while Smith was alive lie re
ceived a total of $26 disability com
pensation from the government. Be
fore her death the needy widow re
ceived $71.67 of the $1,600 the gov
ernment owed her.
Though a coroner’s autopsy reveal
ed Smith has been totally and per
manently disabled since he was hit,
he was discharged as ten per cent
disabled. The War Risk Insurance
Bureau raised this to 15 per cent, and
awarded him $13 a month compensa
tion on which to support himself and
family.
