CONDEMNED NO. 7 ON HAND.

Another New York City jury brought In
yesterday a verdict of murder In the first
degree, and another name is to be added to
the six already standing with the courts
death sentence against them. II took twelve
men eleven minutes to decide that the pris-
oner In this latest case was fit subject for
the extreme penalty prescribed under the
law. An Assistant Dstrict-Attorney said
that q clearer case OF deliberate, premedi.
tated, intentional murder had not been pre-
sented to jury for many years.
1t remains to be seen If the law will now
be allowed to take its course, or II there Is
to follow the same old line OF appeals and
applications for hdbeds corpus aud stays
of proceedings which have marked the cases
of the six murderers lying In their cells
at Sing Sing This murder by JAMES
MINNAUGH-it was he who was found
guilty yesterday-was not more premedi-
tated than that of MCELvAISE, who killed
