The coroner's inquest over the dead body
Of Henry Wilson, in Columbus, returned
verdict of death by the wilful and mali
cious" shooting by Gottleib Mayer, to which
death the Turner'S were more or less accesso-
ry. This was after receiving all the evidence.
1t shows that the Statesman's report Of the
murder was false in all important particulars.
The Turner'S were not attacked, and no pis-
tolls were fired at them. No stones were cast
at them, and until they commenced the at
tack Oh the citizens, they were unmolested.
But the great question is, why were they
all armed with loaded revolvers on that day,
and why so anxious to use them? The an
swer is plain-the Statesman had made them
believe they would be attacked, had need
lessly and wckedly alarmed them, and hence
they were ready and anxious for bloodshcd.
And the Statesman, true 10 its instincts,
rushed to the defence OF the murderers The
Statesman has been justly charged with be-
ing more guilty of the murder than the delu-
ded Germans who were the instruments in
it.
