HAYS DECLINES TO IN TERFERE WIT HVERICT OF - THE JURY, Little Rock, Sept. 11.—Late Wed nesday afternoon Gov. Hays wired S. W. Caudle, sheriff of Washington county, at Fayetteville: “Have decided not to interfere in Davis case.” This mean9 that umer uavis, a foung white man, will be hanged at Fayetteville today for the murder of his sweetheart, Nellie Moneyhun, near Springdale, last winter. An effort was made to have the governor commute the sentence to life imprisonment, and Gov. Hays had granted one respite that he might more thoroughly look into the case. About 500 had petitioned for commu tation, while probably 500, led by W. E. Moneyhun, father of the murder ed girl, remonstrated. The remon strants said: “In our judgment the evidence in the case showed Omer Davis to be guilty of a wilful and deliberate mur der in the killing of Nellie Moneyhun, and we feel that his sentence should not be commuted to life imprisonment, but that the penalty imposed should be carried into effect.” In discussing his reasons for deedin' ing to interfere, Governor Hays said: “I have received a number of letters and telegrams from splendid people of Washington county, recommending commutation, also remonstrances against granting commutation. In addition to petitions received from both sides I have also had parties call me over the telephone and discuss the case with me. I requested a friend of the defendant to see if they could get the trial judge and prosecuting attor ney to recommend commutation, and in response to this request I was in formed that the trial judge declined | to recommend commutation, and the ! prosecuting attorney was in a cam paign and could not be found, i “Because of the peculiarity set 1 forth in the petition for commuta tion, I studied the case carefully, | reading ever)' word of the record, in cluding the evidence and the instruc tions of the court, and I feel thor oughly convinced that no error was j committed in'the trial of the case. While I feel a deep sympathy for the young man and his relatives, and the good people who have manifested an interest in his behalf, at the same time I feel that the law was wilfully violated, and for the protection of the people I feel, as chief executive, that the law should be enforced." One of the peculiarities of the case was the fact that during the delibera tions of the jury, and before they agreed upon a verdict, all of them signed the following statement: “We, the jury in the case of Omer Davis, charged with the murder of Nellie Moneyhun, ask that in case the court passes the death sentence on the said Omer Davis, the Governor of the state of Arkansas commute said sentence to life imprisonment.” But not all of the jurors signed the petition for the commutation, which sets forth that the defendant “has always been a strange, silent, mel ancholy and distant boy, avoided so ciety and sought solitude, and exhib ited many other signs characteristic of mental derangement, and that a sister younger than himself has ex hibited similar signs of mental dis turbances.” Davis is only eighteen year old.

ASSESSORS ALLOWED ONLY $1 A TOWNSHIP Little Rock, Sept. 13— In reply to a question propounded by the auditor of state, Attorney General Moose has called attention to the fact that under rulings of the courts, an assessor is entitled to $1 and no more for assess ing all lands of non-residents and un known owners in each township in which there may be any lands of either non-residents or unknown own ers. In other words, if there are 25 townships in a given county, the as sessor would be entitled to one dollar for each township, or $25 for the whole county. “This case has never been reversed,” says Judge Moose, ‘‘and the decision therein rendered is the law at this time.” CAZORT—M’lNTOSII. luka, Miss., Sept. 15.—An elabor ate and beautiful wedding was sol emnized at the Methodist church Thursday, when Miss Willie McIntosh became the bride of Guy Cazoi t of La mar, Ark., Rev.
