Savannah morning news. [volume] (Savannah) 1868-1887, 1886-08-21

The prisoners had filed out during this
interim under the guidance OF bailifis.
APIERCING SHREK,
Hardly had the jury left the room when
piercing shrek was heard, followed by
the heavy falling of the wife of Schwab
TO the floor, to whom the result of the ver-
dict had been interpreted. She is also
sister of Schnaubelr, the alleged bomb
thrower. She was carried out to the air
by the police and soon revived.
Mrs. Parsons looked haggard as she
started to leave the court room, but main
tanned moderate degree of composure.
A crowd remaiped outside for an hour
after the reading of the verdict. 1t Is un-
! derstood that the authorities now con-
template the immediate arrest OF all per-
sons ever indirectly connected with the
Haymarket tragedy for conspiracy, and
that on this knowledge many OF the active
leaders, hearing the outcome of the ver-
dict, are preparing to leave the city.
LEAVING THE COURT ROOM.
! All the relatives and personal friends of
the condemned anarchists left the court
room shortly after the swoopIng of Mrs.
Schwab. Mrs. Parsons and her female
! companion after leaving the court
rosm returned and seated themselves by
Gen. w. Fl. Parsons, of Texas, brother of
one Of the condemned men. The trio dis
cussed the outcome among themselves.
The prisoners were conveyed through the
covered iron way which leads from the
court room to the jail, and were at once
| placed in the ''caye," small compart-
! ment near the entrance to the jail, which
| is heavily barred and very completely
| covered with thick wire netting. They
were joined there shortly by their attor-
neys who extended to them what encour-
agement was in their power by relief
on an appeal.
SPIES PHfLoSoPHICAL.
Spies had divested himself of his coat
and seemed to be the most thoroughly
composed of the eight. He declined to
converse with anyone but his attorneys,
but 1T is stated that he mad prsmonltion
that his fate was sealed.
EDgel. who has maintained a very quiet
air throughout the trial, appeared to be
the most thoroughly depressed one OF the
lot. He sat on the bench with his hands
clenched in front of him looking at the
floor. He did not even look up to respond
to remark from one of his companions.
LINGG LOSES HIS SMILE.
Lingg, the young bomb maker. walked
about the cage somewhat nervously and
would not respond to salutatiOns by a
newspaper representative. He had lost
his smile and he displayed the effect OF
the excitement OF the ordeal OF the morn
ing by u complete loss Of color. Parsons,
who had given himself up for trial, look
ed disconnected and broken down, but
Joined at intervals in questions directed
at the attorneys.
Fischer, who had looked very badly
durIn z the trial, having an almost abso-
lutely coloTless face, had In a measure
recovered himself and smoked a cigar as
he listened to an Interchange OF views be-
tween the counsel and Spies.
FIELDEN SILENT.
Fielden, the Englishman, sat on a box
at the side of Engel and offered very little
comment during the talk. Schwab stood
near Spies taking in the conversation, but
offered no remark.
Neebe, who was given fifteen years In
the penitentiary, was thoroughly CON-
posed and appeared as though he was
grateful that he had escaped the death
penalty.
None of the friends or relatives Of the
prisoners had appeared at the. Jail up to
the noon hour. After the attorneys had
departed the prisoners we're taken from
their former cells and placed In cells on
what is known as "Murderers' Row."
The jury after having received their pay
we're driven away in carriages to escape
the lingering crowds outside the jail.
AGAINST ANARCHY.
Mr.. Zeisler, Of the counsel for the de-
fense, said that he believed the verdict
was ''against anarchy aud not the an
archists on trial." He thought the ver-
diet was great surprise to States At
torney Grinnell himself.
People stood in groups on all the streets
leading to the court room and eagerly
purchased the various editions of the
papers. which followed each other rap
idly. During the reading of the verdict
the prisoners were completely hidden
from the view of everyone in the court
room, the Gordon of police completely
surrounding them, and whatever lmme-
diate effect the reading OF the verdict had
upon them could not be discerned. The
precautions Of the police were apparently
directed so as to guard against any
demonstration by the prisoners or their
friends OF any character whatever.
THE MOTION FOR A NEW TRIAL.
The motion for a ne " trial 1T is expected
will he heard early next month. Ii it Is
oyerrued Judge Gary will pronounce
the sentence and fix the date for the
carving out of the death penalty. The
case will then go to the Supreme Court fOI
review. 1t Is the generally expressed
view OF lawyers that the Supreme Court
will not interfere il Judge Gary refuses q
new trial, as the court, it is commended
ruled with great liDerslity towards the
Iefendants' counsel and read to the jury
nearly every Instruction asked for on be
hall Of the defendants.
"We had our verdict made up before
O'Clock last night" said q. b. Toole, who
was one OF tue first jurors accepted. 81
don't think ought 10 tell you why we die
not reach q conclusion sooner, for we re
solved not to make public our delibera
tions."
THE MOST EFFECTIVE SPEECH.
"What speech had the greatest weigh
with the juryW
"Mr. GrlnnelPs. It was not an ornate
speech, but it showed the honesty OF tht
man, 1t showed how earnest ne was. Ht
made everything so plain that We fell
into his way of looking at the case, bu
in doing that we were only obeying oul
Judgment. ! think that at the conclusion
Of the evidence, and without any speech
at all, we would have arrived at the same
: conclusion"
The excitement of the crowd in front
of the court house was something Intense
: while the verdict was being awaited
There was none OF the joking and laugh
ing that is heard on the only other occa
sions that bring n mob to stand without
those dreary walls-the execution OF
convicted criminal. Each man seemed u
: be holding his breath, and such conver
I eations as were held were IN low tone, ant
:. related solely to one topic-the probable
/, | .o,,,nict,o,, of tho pivht urisOnerB who were
