Louisville, Kt., June 27.—Craig
Tolliver, who met a bloody death In
Rowan county last Wednesday, was
tlte most noted desperado in Ken-
| lucky.
I There was good reason for bis repu-
| tation, and yet bis career was a short
one. It was written in Kentucky’s
annals in letters cf blood.
He was a type of the Western out
law rather than the Southern. His
deadly work was done with revolver
and rifle, ami lie never used or carried
a krife.
Outwardly tie respected tlie laws.
Notorious as were his deeds he man
aged to confine them within limits
enough debatable to enable him to go
before juries, packed probably with
his friends and adherents, confident of
acquittal, lie always professed a wil
lingness to stand a trial, and every
time lie went into court he secured a
triumphant disci large.
He died as he lived, and probably as
his fierce, boastful spirit wished.
Craig Tolliver was not more than
35 years of age, and up to August,
1SJH, he was never heanl of by tlie
outside world. Then Floyd Tolliver
was killed by John Martin, and after
that came the dark ami bitter contest,
already detailed iu dispatches to tlie
Herald, in which so many lives were
lost and enough blood shed to baptize
the little town of Morchead in ever
lasting infamy.
At last the feud lias ended, for Craig
Tolih’er Is now sleeping quietly in his
Elliot county grave.
The dead outlaw was as magnificent
a specimen of physical manhood as
could be found in all Kentucky. Six
feet high, and not an inch or a frac
tion over, he weighed 190 pounds,
with not an ounce of surplus flesh.
Ilis frame was large -aud rawboued,
bnt he was as active aud quick as a
a cat. Ilis hands were very large and
|K>werful. his fingers long and stout.
His face was frank anil open; his eyes
were steel gray and deep sunken un
der beetling brows; his nose was of
the snub order, the nostrils wide apart
and expanded. Tlie mouth was wide,
the lips thick and sensual; teeth strong,
white and glistening, aud .shutting
down with a snap; tlie jaw square cut,
•Miwerful and determined. Reddish
hair curled around a well-shaped head
and open, massive brow. Sometimes
his determined face was shaved, but
latterly he has worn a mustache aud
goatee.
Craig dressed in tlie ordinary rough
garb of the mountaineer, hut rather
prided himself upon the admiration so
freely bestowed upon his magnificent
physique.
He was \ery vain of his feats oi
strength aud athletic skill. From a
boy lie was a “big bee” at “log roll
ings,” house raisings” and other rus
tic gatherings of a festive uature. He
(masted that lie could out-run, out-
jnmp and out-lift any man iu Mor
gan, Elliot and Rowan couuties. He
was loud of lifting with a hand
spike and of standing and run
ning jumps—in short, of any variety
of fMiwerful physical exercise. To his
feats of strength and athletic prowess
was attributable a ’urge part of ids de
voted following.
Although the scene of Craig’s bloody
exploits was iu and around Moreheatl
lie was not a native of tiiat place or of
Rowan county. He was horn near
West Liberty, Morgan county, twenty-
seven miles from Morehead, and own
ed a farm there. He lived with his
father until sixteen years of age ami
ran away from home. He first went
to Illinois, where he worked on a farm
for years and then went over into
Ohio, where he was subsequently mar
ried. Before marrying, however, he
enlisted hi the army and went West
with Ids command, where they |>asscd
through one or two Indian campaigns.
Craig was very fond of referring to
this |M*riod, ami often remarked that
lie wished he had remained a soldier.
From Ids boyhood up Craig was
noted for his reckless daring, hilt it
•was not until he came to mauiMKxl that
lie became a frequent violator of the
law. It was said that lie used to vary
his farming aud cattle trading with
iiioonsliiniiig,” but be never got into
trouble on account of this, lie was
engaged in a number of brawls, ami
was several times brought into court
for heating or shooting any one with
whom he hap|ieiicd to have trouble.
In this way his reputation grew until
he became regarded as a desperate and
dangerous man.
On one other occasion tile sheriff* of
Morgan comity was sent to arrest him
for s »me offense. The officer was
timid and took along a pos*c of six
teen men. They found Graig at Ids
home and at once placet 1 him under
arrest. He was not iu a good humor,
hut submitted quietly and waited his
chance. The fiosse was heavily armed,
hut when they arrived at West Liber
ty, where court was iu session, they
s;op|H‘d iu tow'ii a little off* their guard.
Tolliver walked up quietly to one ot
the men, snatched his gun out ot his
hands, aud the demon iu his nature
broke out. Backing up against the
side of a house lie aimed tou*ard tlie
squad with liis gnu and swore lie
would kill the first man who moved,
fie meant what lie said, ami tlie men
laid down tiieir arms at his cominaud.
The dare-devil mountaineer then
marched the wdiole body to the court
house, where a case was being tried,
au.l turned the possee over to tlie
Judge, lie surrendered himself for
trial, hut when the case came up he
was at once acquitted by a jury of Ins
|*ecrs and neighbors.
That was lour years ago, and it was
not long before he entered upon his
bloody career. Up to the time the
feud began, however, though lie bad
been engrged in many a brawl, Tolli
ver luul never taken a life. It -was
not long before Ids hands were drip
ping witii blood, but popular rumor

Bowling, who was arrested for killing
the marshal of Mount Sterling, where
Johu Martin was In confinement. Al

Jeff* Bowling was under arrest In
Ohio a few months later for tlie mur
der of his father-in-law. He was
tried and convicted, and tlie day of
execution was set, but tie was respited
two or three times, and Governor For-
aker at last commuted his sentence to
imprisonment for life. There seems to
be some doubt of his guilt, and be has
always vehemently, protested his inno
cence.
Tolliver was of a humerons disposi
tion and much given to playing off
practical jokes. He would frighten
timid strangers by pretended careless
haudiing of liis weapons. He took
great delight In displaying these, and
in addition to his Winchester be car
ried .three huge revolvers of ..‘IS and
.44 calibres. All were of tlie latest
ami most improved make. He also
was very proud of his strength, as has
already been mentioned, lie was
equally proud of his peculiarly formed
ribs, which were so strong and thick
that they seemed to compose a solid
hone. He termed tills liis “breast
plate,” and declaring it was solid said
it would turn a rifle ball. He received
wounds time and agaiu which were
thought to lie fatal, but lie always re
covered, and thought he horeacharm
ed life. He once drank but little, hut
is said to have been very intemperate
in tlie past few months.
Tol liver always seemed well supplied
with money, and he did little work or
none at all. Still it is not believed by
Ids neighbors that lie was dishonest,
although he lay in jail for some time
in Cincinnati on the charge of horse
stealing—a charge, by the way, which
was never proved. He owned a farm
in Morgan county, and at one time
kept a hotel there*. In tlie iast three
mouths he hud been keeping tlie Cen
tral Hotel and barroom at Morchead.
It Is charged tiiat lie forced Hiram
Towers, the owner, to reut the pro-
|>erty to him, hut the rental, tlie latter
states, was $250 yearly, a liberal
figure for the property. Before his
more lawless days Craig had been
stock trader ami dealer, and Is said to
have made some money.
He brought Ids wife and children
from Elliott county, where they had
been living, and they were at More-
head when he was killed. He is said
to have been a kind and indulgent hus
band and father, aud tlie grief of his
family was terrible. He had three
children, the oldest a boy ten years ot
age.
The |>ersomtl popularity of Tolliver
aud Bowling is shown by the devotiou
with which men followed them to
their death. They had some good
traits, and one of their chief virtues
was devotion to a friend, w*hom they
never forgot. The evil tiiat lie did
vas probably exaggerated, and cer-
ainly he and Bowling were far more
prepossessing in appearance than Cook
Humphreys and the Martins. Hum

look that creates an unfavorable im

Morehead, the scene of the bloody
feud, is a village of about five hund
red inhabitants and is about one hund
red and sixty miles from Louisville.
It is uoi a remote mountain village as
may lx; supposed, hut is a station on
the Chesapeake aud Ohio Railroad, a
dozen or more trains (tassing every
day. It is the county seat of Rowan
county, but until two years ago there
was not a church in Us borders. There
are now one or two mission stations in
the couuty. The sclioolliouse in More-
head is a dilapidated frame structure,
and since tlie bloody war iiegan lists
been deserted. It is hare even ot
ImmicIics and the floor has been remov
ed.
Tlie people arc honest aud hospitable
and a stranger is sacred from insult or
injury at tlie hand of the most vindic
tive man in a vendetta. Xeither Tol
liver uor the other faction banned a
man who was not unlisted in the feud

head depend iipou the lumber aud tau

were closed. Tiiat evening the billiard
room at the Cottage'Hotel was throng

two men rode up to the door and dis
mounted. Craig Tolliver was one ot
these, lie w»s riding a handsome bay

learning your correspondent’s name
he expressed great regret that he bail

that tlie trouble had been forced upon
him.

Martin was taken to Mount Sterling

Tolliver’s story was corroborated bv

SKKIOLS CHABtiK** AGAINST TIIE P. k W.
The Com mission reports that fre
quent complaints have been made to
them of tlie lmd condition of tiie track,
rolling stovk and equipments of the
Brunswick and Western railroad, ami
that tlie road is utterlv unsafe. The
rails are worn, the rolling stock, both
passenger and freight, is in had con
dition, insufficient and inadequate to
the demands or accommodation of tlie
public. The Commission ha** no su
pervision of tlie physical condition o!
tlie road, but brings it to tlie attention
or the Governor tiiat proper ste|*s may
be taken to correct tlie evil.
INTER-COMMISSION.
The re|>ort refers to some length
about the 1 uter-Stnte Commission law,
whicli they assert does not affect the
authority or operation of the State
Commission, as their spheres of action
are entirely different, the Inter-State
Commission having nothing whatever
to do with commerce within the State.
The creation of tiiat Commission, how
ever, and tlie law governing It, In
duced tlie Georgia Commission to re
vise the standard tariff aud classifica
tion, which haul not been done since
1S70, when tlie Commission was estab
lished. A copy of Uie revised tariff is
attached to tlie report, together with
copies of all circulars issued since tin*
last re(»ort.

lature lie asked to appropriate a suffi
cient sum to discharge the indebted

EARNINGS OP TIIE RAILROADS.
The report contains a statement of
the comparative gross earnings of rail
road companies for tiie six months
from October, 1SSG, to March 1887,
showing a decided increase iu the case
of most of the roads.
HARMONIOUS RELATIONS.
The report concludes with the follow
ing cheerful language:
“We desire to express our gratifica
tion at the continued harmonious rela
tions existing between the railroads
and their patrons. All parties have
adjusted themselves to the Commis
sion. Tlie law is working well and
smoothly, and we know of no dissatis
faction in auy^ quarter as tothe man
lier in which it is being administered. **
Gradually this changed into the most
expressive jtantomime. The
and drams took up the measure;arms,
hands aud even fingers spoke
of words with a precision that the
best-drilled ballet troupe could never
attain. The body swayed back and
forward, the slightest motion to the
right or left by one being repeated by
all. Something snakelike and repul
sive. anon seductive and pleasing,
until finally a wild tossing of tbe
arms, followed by a low wail, pro
claimed the end of the story, to
tiie evident discomfiture of tbe
maiden and the triumph of the
lover. During tlie Interval required for

Of the five who entered the legal
profession one became dissatisfied witii
his pecuniary gains at the end ot two
years and made up his mind that he
would have nothing more to do with
courts and juries, lie determined that
he wonld educate himself to work
his hands. According, he went
to Massachusetts and entered a school
of technology. He had just money
enough to pay his expenses during his
course, and consequently, made tlie
most of his opportunities. He gradu
ated as a skilled machinist, and at
of a railroad employment in the shops
of a r ilroad iu a State which borders
in Georgia. His employers were
uot slow to discover tiiat lie was of
great value to them, so they gradual
ly promoted him until be became
Superintendent of the shops witii a sal
ary of $2,500 a year. Under his guid
ance tlie employes became better work
men. Iu the course of time the own
ers of the railroad found It unnecessa
ry to send Xorth for engines and cars.
Tor tiie young Georgian demonstrated
that they could be built in the
under his control. Tbe President of
an llliuois railroad made his acquaint
ance, and was favorably impressed by
his ability. Tlie result was an offer of
the position of superintendent of large
railroad shops in an Illinois city. Tlie
salary was $3,500. When the owners
of tiie railroad for which the young
Georgian was w orking were informed
of tlir offer, they said: “Stay with
us; we will give you $5,000 a year.”
ne stayed. In less than ayear he was
made General Superintendent of the
railroad, with a salary ot $7,500 a
year. Subsequently he was offered a
position as General Superintendent of
a Canadian railroad. He accepted tiie
offer, aud he now receives for Ills ser
vices $10,000 a year.
The live young men whom the young
Georgian left in his native town con
tinued their struggle to win fortune
and renown. Two of tlie lawyers have
served terms in the General Assembly.
Only one of rhein lias made aud saved
as much as $10,000. Two liave pro

are deiKMident iqioii their practice for
tiieir living. The fourth would have

assistance. The physician is still alive,
hut he has saved nothing and is in
debt.
The story of these young men
tenches a lesson. The proleftsious of
law and medicine in Georgia are so
crowded tiiat only a few can make re
putation and money in them. The
man, houever. whoso mind and hands
are educated can hardly fail to take a
