Holmes will Hang Also.

Philadelphia, Nov. 2.-Henry H.
Holmes was convicted of murder in
the first degree at SOL tonight for
killing Benjamin F. Pietzel. He
cOughed slightly when he heard the
words. That was the only sign.
The jury retired to deliberate at
$40 this afternoon. According to
one Of their number, they had reach
ed their verdict before the doors Of
their room closed upon them. For
hunger's sake they ate their supper
first. Then they took a ballot and
without hesitation every man Of the
twelveanswered "Guilty of murder in
the first degree" But, however afro
cious the crime, however fendish the
criminal, it is hard to send man to
the gallows in one minutes time.
So. for decency's sake, they talked
about the case for a seemly period,
about an hour and a half. Then
word was sent into court that they
had agreed. This was at SIS o'clock.
1t took half al hour to get the court
in readiness to receive the verdict.
Holmes spoke to his counsel, Rotten
and Shoemaker, in the cell room, be-
fore he was taken to MOyamensirg
prison. To them he said; 81 feel
that this condemns me. 1t was an
unjust trial" He would say no more
than that. Immediately after the
verdict the usual application for
leave to file motion for new trial
was made. District Attorney Gca-
ham did not oppose the motion and
Judge Arnold fixed fhe 18th of this
month for hearing. The principal
reason urged will be lack of time for
preparation Uf the defense. Should
a new trial be refused an appeal will
be taken to the special COsrt, and
argument heard at its next sitting in
this city, January 1896, so if every
thing goes against him, Holmes has
some time to spend on the earth,
from which he is alleged to have re-
moved so many fellOw-mOrtals.
The verdict was a surprise to many
persons who did not believe the
crime had been fastened upon Holmes
beyond reasonable doubt. When
they heard the verdict, they said:
"Well, it was on general principles
and it is just and good" That is not
the meaning of the law but in this
case everybody agrees that sit is just
as good"
There is no word of pity or sympa
thy for the condemned felOn. He is
regarded as menace to society. Up
in GilmantOn, n. H., there are two
old people, his father and mother.
And he has two brothers and two
sisters. Not one of his kin was heard
from during the trial.

That Imported Labor Again.

Kansas City, Oct. 30 Vice Consul
Phillip E. Burroughs of this city, is
still receiving information of the
methods pursued by the International
Emigration association of London
and Toronto in sending young Eng
lishmen to this country. This COM
pany, Mr.. Burroughs claims, has been
bringing out many young EngliShmen
to Kansas under the pretenSe of plac-
ing them on ranches and making
them cowboys. The company re-
CeiveS $50 from each victim in re-
turn for what it furnishes-a Steerage
passage and railroad ticket to WiCh-
ita or Caldwell, Kansas, where the
young men are placed on some farm,
and compelled to do hard manual
labor for their board. The total cost
to the association does not exceed s47
per head.
The case Of E. H. Simpson, IS years
old, the son of an English clergyman
at KirtOn, Lindsey, Lincolnshire, is
reported by Mr.. Burroughs as anillus-
tratiOn of the company's methods.
Simpson had been studying medicine,
and was much taken with one of the
Emigration associations circulars
that he had picked up, and insisted
against his fathers wishes, on coming
out TO Kansas to be a cowboy. He
started on his hOmeward journey to
England this morning, totally disen-
thanted with what he had seen Of
cowboy life. He claims that he had
to work eighteen hours day and
sleep out of doors, and as most young
Englishmen in his station are totally
untitled for hard labor, he did not
make success as a cowboy For the
past six weeks Simpson has been stop
ping at the Metropolitan hotel in this
city, dependent largely upon the char
ity Of Kansas City Englishmen with
whom he became acquainted. Short
ly after his arrival here he cabled his
father for money to return to Eng
land, and S73 was sent to him.
A large number Of English youths
are SAID to be in a similar stranded
position on various Kansas farms,
waiting for relief from their friends
in England.
