"We. the jury, find the defendant,
Scott Jackson, guilty of murder in the
first degree and fix his penalty at death"
The judge had previously announced
that no demonstration of approval or dis
approval by the spectators would be per-
mitted.
Deputies were placed throughout the
room with instructions to bring before
the court any person disobeying this in
struction, to be punished for contempt.
Consequently the verdict was heard with
silence, but Immediately upon the adj
jOurnment Of court the spectators rushed
to the jurors and shook their hands
heartily. They also shook each other by
the hand showing hearty approval of the
verdict of the jury.
Jackson himself received his doom
with no manifestation Of emotion except
ashen paleness of the face None of his
relatives were present The aged father
of Pearl Bryan and her brother Fred
Bryan were present when the verdict
was rendered.
The usual motion for new trial was
made and then Jackson was taken away
to JAIL He had been surrounded by a
half dozen or more officers when the
jury came in and went out under their
protection. although there was no DEM
onstration to indicate a necessity for SO
much care The general impression is
that the verdict is right.
In apprehension of trouble in the event
of a disagreement or acquittal the COM
monwealth had arranged for special
train to transfer Mailing as we'll as
Jackson to the state penltentlary at
Frankfort. This train was in waiting
until noon and no one knew anything of
it except the officers and railway officials.
In a long interview Jackson admits
his surprise over the verdict and claims
that he had proved an alibi. He still
maintains his innocence and says that

the Order in the Senate.
Washington, D. c., May 14.-Mr. Glib
son Dem, Md addressed the Senate
in opposition to the bill restricting immi-
grafton as soon as the session opened
today. He urged that there was no
reason to turn back the Immigrant from
our shores so long as there were noun
tains to tunnel rivers to bridge and
virgin country to develop. Mr.. Gibson
said that the power behind this anti
immigration bill was "the American Pro
tective association, a secret, oath-bound,
red-lettered, left-handed dark-lantern or
ganization." The bill had for it's real
purpose, said the senator, hostility to the
Catholic church purpose of envy,
hatred and malice. 1t was the off
spring of brood of Observation-Disclosures
Mr.. Gibson read the oath of the organ
ization. This was the organization, he
said, that was seeking to enter American
politics. There was no branch of honest
politics which a secret, oath-bound or
ganization could serve.
