The jury Saturday afternoon re-
turned verdict of acquittal in the
case of George Siviloos, the Lummi
Indian on trial for the murder of
Moses Younkin last January. The
case was on trial nine days, and is
probably the most exciting one ever
tried in Whatcom county. After
the verdict was rendered excitement
ran high, and threats of lynching
were heard on every hand. The
Indian was quickly taken to the
beach, placed in canoe, and started
for the reservation under an escort
of Indians. Within twenty mlnu-
tes after the verdict was known a
crowd Of 1000 people gathered on
the street, and Mayor Miller, of New
Whatcom, addressed them, denoun-
cling the verdict. An effort was
made by the crowd to get tug to
follow and lynch the Indian, but
none could be obtained. Five armed
men started out on horseback at
A o'clock to take the Indian on his
arrival at the reservation. 1t Is
stated that the principal witness was
