VERDICT OF GUILTY.
Kostrauch Convicted of Grave
Robbery.
MS OWN CONFESSION THE CAUSE
n II Admitted ~ Evidence by the Court
Miss Maggie Koran Granted .
Writ OF Habeas Corpus.

Ludwig Kostrauch, the young Austrian
,mnlicated in the Radloff case, who on
Wednesday escaped conviction on a
charge of arson on a legal technicalitv
vas Yesterday found guilty in Judge
Humes' court of grave robbery. The con-
v;ction was due to the admission as evil
dence of the written confession which
Kostrauch made to the police, and
those contents have been detailed in the
Posr-ISTELLrGENcER-
r s. Lyons, the prisoners attorney.
made hard fight against the introduce
ton of the confession, arguing that it was
obtained by threats and promises of i'm
munity from punishment. Chief of Police
Jackson was examined as to the manner
n which the document was secured, and
,xore that no threats were used, although
admitting he told kostrauch that if he
toId all he knew he would probably escape
nunishment. The court overruled the OBJ
lection of the defense to the confession on
The ground that no threats were used in
attaining it. and allowed it to be read to
the jury.
The evidence in the case brought out
nothing further than has been told in the
posr.IsTELLIGENcER Chief Jackson and
Coroner Horton testified to going to the
graveyard with Kostrauch and digging
open the grave pointed out by HIM to find
itempty.
At the afternoon session of court one of
NE iurymen, Alexander Simpson, was
missing. The jury had been allowed to
separate at IL o'clock and ordered to re-
turn at 1:30 p. M, hut when that time
came Simpson was not on hand. There
Vas nothing to do except to delay the
hearing, while an officer was dispatched
In search of the missing juror. He was
not to be found, and gradually rumor be-
ssn to spread that he had been made way
with BY interested parties. Finally about
Sis Mr.. Simpson strolled leisurely into
court, and explained that he understood
the court to say that the court took re-
cess until p. IN.
The jury wasted no time after the case
had been placed in its hands. It stayed in
the jury room just long enough to make
out the verdict of conviction. Kostrauch's
attorney will probably move for new trial.

The stirring scenes of the great tragical
period in the history of this country are
boldly reflected in the war drama, Held
by the Enemy" The play is having ex-
ceptional success at Cordray's this week,
and the presentation fully merits it. The
performers, without exception, enter hap
ply into the spirit of their respective roles
and the scenery is worthy of hearty COM
mendation. One of the most entertain
ing bills offered for some time Is per-
formed in the auditorium this week. The
famous Pizarelio charms everybody by his
unique and clever musical acts, and the
Dare brothers are the subjects of continu-
Gus applause.

THREE FIRE ALARMS.
Two Were for Small Blases and the
Other Was False.

The fire department had three runs
yesterday. two on account of small blazes
and the third for false alarm.
The explosion of q large kerosene oil
lamp in Julius Zimmerman's cigar store
at No. 3O5 Yesler avenue, caused an alarm
to be sent in at 7: rs o'clock in the morning
from box IA. The fire apparatus responded
and extinguished the fire with the chemi-
cal. The total loss to stock and building
is estimated at $50.
A telephone alarm was sent in at $40
O'Clock in the afternoon for blaze in the
dwelling of julius Mishel, 324 Ash street.
Some lard in frying pan caught fire and
blazed up in a dangerous manner. The
flames were extinguished before damage
to any extent was done.
While the work of connecting an auxil.
iary to fire alarm box No. 35, at Fifth and
Jackson streets, was in progress in the
afternoon an electric car passed by and
shook the pole to such an extent that an
alarm was sent in.

PERRY REcAPTUREo.
TIE Daring New YorE Train Robbers
Liberty Quite Brief

LlDNFhy ashAtg
AUBURN. n. Y, Oct 25. = Oliver
Curtis Perry the bold New York
express robber who was recently
sentenced to half century behind
penitentiary prison bars, made his
escape from his cell Saturday after
noon. lie was re .aptured inside the
prison walls at 2 o'clock yesterday
morning.
After escaping from the wing in
which his cell was located, Perry
boldly crossed the prison yard and hid
in the basement Of the broom shop,
where Convict johnson was murdered
by another prisoner only few weeks
ago. When the night had sufficiently
advanced for the darkness to shield
his movements, Perry tried to gain ac-
cess to the broom shop. II was closely
guarded. however, and he next pro-
ceeded to the marble shop. Here
again he was frustrated in his attempt
TO gain admittance as the guards were
on the alert, and his efforts attracted
their attention.
Perry started to run as soon as he
found that his presence had been dis
covered He went direct to the collar
shop, where large number OF knives
were kept The fugitive's one idea
was 10 secure weapon of some kind.
AS he neared the collar shop, he was
seen by Keeper Keene, who stood in a
shadow When within ten feet of the
guard, Perry was challenged and
ordered to halt He did not obey and
the guard fired shot from his rifle
over the convict's head This
had no effect upon Perry other
than to change the course in
increase his speed. His change of
direction was fatal, however, as it
caused him to pass within reach of
Keeper Smith, who, without waiting
to challenge the fleeing man, struck
him over the head with his heavy
night stick. So powerful was the
blow that the cane was broken, and
Perry was stretched unconscious at
the keepers feet the blood flowing
freely from deep wound. Perry was
at once taken to the dungeon, where
he will be confined some time to come
without even the comfort of board
to rest upon.
1t IS said thet after his capture Per-
ry told Warden Dursten that it was
not liberty he sought but an opportun-
ity to stick knife into him He has
conceived deep hatred for the war
den during his long confinement in
the screen cell.
The instrument which Perry used to
dig through the wall of his cell was
the iron leg of a bedstead, which he
managed to loosen from it's fastening
1t is rumored that Perry was fatally
injured by the blow from Keeper
Smiths club.
