THE DEFINING STORY
Rehearsed In the Newspapers Arriving
From Australia-Great Excitement Pre-
I'D


From Australia-Great Excitement Pre-
vailed
SAN FRANCISCO, May 12.-Advices
per steamship Mariposa state that at the
time the vessel left Sydney, Frederick
Deeming has been found guilty of the
murder of Emily Williams, his wife, by
the Coroner's jury, and his trial was TO
begin at Melbourne, April 2s. The peo-
pie OF Australia manifested extraordi-
nary interest in the case, excited
crowds having been about
Deeming ever since the time
OF his arrest. Particularly was
this so on his journey from Perth to
Melbourne where the trial was held.
At every country station the platform
was crowded with people who struggled
to get view OF the prisoner and assail-
ed him with cries OF murderer, "Jack
the Ripper" and so on. At the station
before York, he called out, nervously,
STAND in front of me; don't let them
see me-" and afterwards he said: THAT
is western Australia all over; they
might wait until mans proved guilty"
On arrival at Melbourne the same
scenes were enacted, and when acting
Coroner Neild opened the examination,
a great crowd fought and struggled for
admittance to the hall during the in
quest. A letter from neeming TO Miss
Kate Rousevelle, to whom he was en-
gagged 10 be married, was read. After
denying the crime with which
he was charged, he said: "Know-
ing that | am not guilty and
trusting in God TO carry me trough is
my only comfort. | should not say my
only comfort, for knowing my Katie
will never believe me guilty OF the
crime, is more than comfort to me. |
don't know that / ever wronged any
one in my life, and as for harming any
one, my Kate, | think you know l
would not harm cat"
The closing scene OF the inquest,
April II, was sensational. Deeming en-
tered the court early in the morning
wearing flower and looking ill-pleased.
He sent request to Miss Rounsvele
for some flowers she was wearing, but
she denied them to him. When
the jury returned verdict Of
guilty and the Coroner informed
him that warrant for his commitment
would be made out, he jumped to his
feet and said Then you can put it in
your pipe and smoke it,"
The audience resented this insult by
Kisses, and it was with difficulty that
order was restored and Deeming re-
moved from the room.
