THE SALLEE CASE.

The time of the criminal court on Tues
day and Wednesday was mostly taken up
with the case of the state against William
sallee, charged with assault with intent
to kill. The Ease was brought here on a
change OF venue from Platte county.
On the night of the 18th of March, 1890,
some one fired three shots into the room
occupied by So n j. Burress, the prosecu-
ting witness, near Dearborn, Platte coun-
ty. One of the shots passed through the
wall near the window, and struck the
plastering over Burress's head. From the
range OF the bullet, it was surmised that
the a~ssailant had climbed a tree near the
window, from thence the shots were fired.
Suspicion at once fell upon Sallee and Il
young man named McMullin, who lived
near by. McMullin was arrested, but
Sallee fed, and was arrested n year later
in East st. Louis.
In the trial here there was little evidence
to disprove that Sallee had fired the shots.
In fact, McMullin turned states evidence,
and told how he had accompanied Snllee
on the afternoon before the shooting on II
long round among the neighbors in search
OF n pistol. The defense relied mainly
upon moral insanity, and placed II num-
Der of experts upon the stand, including
two physicians from the st. Joseph asy-
lum and four or five Lexington physi-
clans, who heard all the evidence for the
state, and based their expert testimony
upon this. Sallee was proved to be n very
immoral man, given 10 almost every vice,
and his attorney, j. s. Blackwell, OF this
city, held to it that the man was incapa-
BILE Of knowing right from wrong in the
shooting.
The case was given to the jury ut Q
o'clock Wednesday afternoon, but a YER
dict was not agreed upon until 3 o'clock
the next afternoon, when they reported
that they had found the defendant guilty,
and assessed his punishment at two years
in the penitentiary. 1t is reported that
one Juror held out twenty-one hours on
the theory of insanity, the eleven insist
ing upon a verdict of guilty. Sallee was
entirely unmoved during the reading ot
the verdict and the poll Of the jury.
