Slayer of Herr.

Not much time was lost yesterday over the
trial OF John F. Naughton for the killing of
Marcus NJ. Herr, before Junge Finn and the

for the prosecution, and he swore that he had
known Heir for about five years. He had
known him TO be quiet man OF good character.
Previous 10 the trial he had never heard any
thing against his character.
W. /. White, a reporter for the Alta, testified
that lie met the defendant in the South Police
Station on the night after the tragedy. The de-
fend ant then made a statement that he placed
him self between Herr and Brewer, and that the
first attack was made upon Brewer. When Herr
could not successfully attack Brewer ne attacked
Naughion.
After this testimony. the seal with which 1t
was alleged Herr had attacked Naughton was
handed 10 the jury for inspection.

that Naughton told him he lad Tried 10 prevent
Herr from attacking Brewer, whereupon Naugh-
ton was himself attacked aud shot Herr in SELF
defence.
Attorney Deuprey announced TO the court that
he did not care TO make any argument for the
defense, but was satisfied 10 leave the matter to
tile jury.
Judge Finn announced that he would limit the
argument 10 Two hours for each side. aud A. P.
Duzer, special counsel for the prosecution,
spoke at length, urging that the defendant
should be found guilty. No argument IN answer
was made.
Shortly before luncheon Judge Finn read his
charge 10 tDe jury. He was engaged Tor twenty
minutes IN the reading
The jury went to luncheon at noon, and then at
! o'clock retired for dehberatlOn. Al 2:30 the
jury slgnined that agreement had been

sttucliOn In behalf of the defendant 10 the effect
that guilt must be proved beyond a reasonable
doubt. THIS instruction had been refused al
the morning hour.
The jury til Il went out. and in four minutes a
verdcI OF not guilty was returned.
IL Is understood That tie FIRST ballot stood 10

The circumstances surrounding her death point
to suicide, SO her body was removed TO the
Morgue for an official examination.
Mrs. Funk bad lived with her husband In this
city Tor some years previous TO last summer. He
was fresco painter of more than ordinary abil-
lty and many houses here bear evidence OF his

nand Tor interior decorating in that city, so as

on the bed almost dead from tile effects OF the
escaping gas and was at once removed 10 the
City Receiving Hospital. Although successfully
