For Shooting Her Friend.

sSow HILL, Mo-, June 1O.-The jury in
the case OF Ella Duer, charged with the
homicide Of Ella Hearn, returned a YER
dict Of guilty Of murder with recommen.
dation to mercy to court. Judge Wilson
informed'the jury that the verdict must be
lorna, and the reply must not be guilty
Of murder but guilty Of manslaughter. MI.
Crisheld, OF the counsel for the defense,
demanded poll OF the Jury panel, which
was called, and the formal answer was
made OF guilty OF manslaughter until the
eighth juror was called; he answered not
guilty. The reply created a sensation.
Judge Wilson then said as the Jury had
not agreed they would again retire. They
did so, and returned in a short time with
averdict OF manslaughter. The prisoner
was then removed.
Judge Wilson in sentencing the priso-
ner said' Lillian Duer, you have been
tried by jury OF true and honest men,
for one OF the most heinous oiTenses
known 70 the law, and they have found
you guilty Of manslaughter. In view Of
the TACT that there isn't stain upon your
You to the mercy Of the court and the
court is glad Of it, The law permits the
Imprisonment in the penitentfary or com.
mon Jail or to the maximum fine Of $500.
The court will not sentence you to impris.
onment, but as the otIense was OF so grave
a character the court will impose the high,
est fine which the law provides. The
court therefore sentences you to pay Q
fine OF $500 and 10 stand committed unit
the fine is paid. Her friends will advance
the pay for fine, when she will be dis,
charged.
