4HE D1NsMoRE HoMIcIDE-Fogler
CONVICTED Of Murder ia the First Degree
The brutal murder Of Robert w. Dins-
more, of Washington county, on the
night of the'14th of December last, is
still fresh in the minds of our readers.
Robert Fogler and VIM. Montgomery
were arrested and committed to answer
for the crime, and last week Fogler was
tried and convicted of murder in the
first degree-the jury having rendered
a verdict at six o'clock Saturday even
ing. The prisoner evidently antici-
pated no other result, as he heard the
announcement without exhibiting any
visible signs of emotion. Montgom-
ery's trial was commenced Monday
morning; and it is stated that Foglerw VIII
be used as q witness against him. 1t
will be remembered that Fogler made
a confession, subsequent to his
arrest, in which he implicated young
Montgomery, who is a son of Hon. VIM.
Montgomery, ex-member of Congress,
and u prominent member of the Wash
ington county bar. A strong effort
will be made to secure his acquittal,
but with what result the judicial trial
must determine.
The trial has created much excite
ment in Washington, and the Court
House is daily thronged with an
anxious crowd. 1t is thought it will
take a much longer time to dispose OF
Montgomery than it did of Fogler, as
. much larger number Of lawyers have
been employed for the defence.

PoLLCE.-There we're three cases dis
posed of in this Court yesterday. John
Murphy and Patrick Given had in
dulged in a "wee bit of u fight" and

For this infraction Of the law they were
each fined five dollars and costs. An
other man, for exposure of his person,
was fined five dollars and costs.

NOTHING DEFINITE had been heard
up to a late hour last night as to what
determination the iron manufacturers
convention had arrived at in Pittsburg
yesterday. The boilers appear deter
mined to Eight it out on that line"
and declare that they will starve be-
fore they will succumb to the proposed
reduction of wages. On the other hand,
the manufacturers seem inclined to
keep their mills closed until their de-
mands are complied with. 1t is to be
hoped some adjustment of the existing
difficulties will soon be effected.
