IN THE FIRST DEGREE
Edward Billings, of Wayerly, Ia. Found
Guilty Of Murder.

WAvERLY, Ia, Dec. 31.-The eoronor's
jury has brought in verdict against Ed
ward Billings, of murder IN the frst oe-
gree, for shooting w s. Kingsley. Inls
case is one of the most sensational, ana mas
more peculiar features IN IT, than any
which has developed in the state OF Iowa
Billings, man of 40 years OF aSe, was d
respected lawyer of the town OF Waveriy;
His wife was a woman of fine figure and
with many charms of feature and man
ners, but a great deal younger t1an
her husband. Will Kingsley was but
% years of age but brilliant to degree, a
graduate. and popular, and was successful 81,
III being elected county attorney, Inc
men at one time had an office together and
business relations with each other. one
day two weeks ago Billings called at
Kingsley's Office. Suddenly the passers-
by on the street were startled by the report
of pistol shots, and Billings came running
down the stairs crying out that Kingsley
had shot himself. Citizens ran up stairs
and entering Kingsley's ofhce f0und MIN
lying dead on the floor with bullet IN his
brain Billings claimed that the dead
man had shot himself. Months previous
to this Billings had had the young attor-
ney arrested the warrant charging him
with seduction IL being sworn TO be q
girl in poor circumstance. He afterwards
confessed that the charge was not true
and he (BiIlings) had induced her
to swear TO the warrant. From
the testimony produced at the inquest
on Kingsley it developed that billings had
set about efTecting the ruin OF hlngSley IN
the most systematic manner. tie had
forged his own wife's name TO notes direct
ed to the lawyer, The contents OF the notes
being full OF loving terms and asking
Kingsley to meet her at her own house
while Billings was away. kingsley replied
in good faith, declining to make the asslg-
nation and warning the supposed female
writer to deSiSt from her course. Of
course the reply fell into the hands of Bill
ings. The latter even went so lar as TO
prepare notes off hand, filled out, convey
ing all of kingsley's property TO himself.
1t is believed that on the day of the shoot
ing Billings went TO kingsleys Office to
try by backnail TO get him to put his sig
nature to the notes The evidence as to
the blackmail and forgeries was direct, but
there was no witness to the shooting and
that part was proven by circumstantlal
evidence
