THE VERDICT RECEIVED WITH A STORM OF POPULAR
INDIGNATIoN-DUKEs Is HUNG IN KFFIGY.
The Jury in the Dukes-Nutt murder trial at
Uniontown, Pa, returned with a verdict shortly
after O'Clock last evening, the court house being
packed with men and women. When Foreman
McNulty said mot guilty" about 80 persons
jumped to their feet and cheered, but the rest of
the spectators remained motionless, too much sur
pr1sed to move or speak. Judge Wilson was also
taken by surprise. He wheeled his chair so as to
face the jury and said:

best OF your Judgments, but must say am disap-
