SCHULZ CONVICTED.
Jury Brings Verdict Of Murder 10 the
First Degree...The Prisoner Car
ried a knife and File.

Milford, Pa, June 1S.--Herman Paul
Schulz, of New York, who has been on
trail since last Tuesday, for the muir
der of his wife, was found guilty OF
murder in the first degree today. The
Jury went out at 6 o'clock last night
and deliberated until o'clock this
morning before arriving at a verdict.
The jurors remained in the court house
all night and at half past 3 o'clock this
morning filed into the court room.
The prisoner was brought in and as he
gazed at the jury lost composure for a
moment when he recovered himself
and his face took on a sneering smile.
After the jury's verdict had been an
nounced by it's foreman, Mr.. Vanettan
asked for their individual pool. This
formality being gone through with
Schulz was led back to his cell and as
he was passing the jury he laughed and
said: II thank you, gentlemen, for
your verdict"
When he had been placed in his cell
at the Jail Schulz was searched by
the sheriff and two constables. They
found concealed within the lining of his
trousers and coat, a small saw, file
and penknife. The prisoner had pre-
viously said he meant to cheat the
gallows should he be convicted. When
the articles were discovered he first
became furious, then Respondent and
finally refused to eat. All efforts to
persuade him to eat have failed. He
was given new clothing and put in an
other cell.
His counsel have made the usual ap-
plication for a new trial and June 2s
has been fixed as the date to hear ar
gument. A special term of court will
be held for this purpose.

" BIKE" THIEF ESCAPES.
Walter Kinney, Under Five.Year Sen.
teuce for Stealing Wheels, Scales a
Prison Wall.

Norristown, Pa, June 13.-Walter
Kinney, who was sentenced to prison
yesterday for term of five years for
stealing bicycle from the vestibule
of an Ardmore church and for rob-
bling freight cars in Lansdale, escaped
from Jail at an early hour this morn
ing. UP until a late hour tonight he
had not been recaptured. Kinney ef-
fected his escape by picking the lock
of his cell door with an old spoon,
after which he scaled the stone wall
about the Jail. High Constable Ber-
gey, who lives on Marshall street, in
the rear of the Jail, saw Kinney climb
ing over the wall and hurried to eff
feet his capture. Bergey being very
large and corpulent made but slow
advance, and the convicted man was
over the wall and away before Bergey
could reach him. The constable gave
chase, but was unable to catch up to
Kinney, the latter several times stop
ping and laughing at the officials slow
progress. Bergey finally gave UP the
chase.
Kinney is 26 years of age, and came
from New Jersey, where it is said
he stole a number of wheels.

America, not excepting Dickey Pearce,
Joe Start and others of the famous At
lantics Of Brooklyn. Anson began with a
Marshalltown Qa.) club in 1867 as catcher.
He first became popular two years later
as catcher and third baseman of the For
est Citys of Rockford, Ill. Playing with
him on that team were A. G.. Spalding,
Ross Barnes, now a member of the Chi
cago Board of Trade Scott Hastings and
Bob Addy. The Forest Citys We're
one of the crack teams of the country.
In 1871 Anson went to the Philadelphia
Athletics and played third base. He went
with Spalding and Barnes to the Chicago
team in 1876 and began playing first
base. He was a power at the bat, and
won the league championship many times
for Chicago, Anson won fame for his
ability in developing young players or
"colts," selling them for good prices after
they had become stars, He has not been
fast enough for first base for several
years and was particularly weak on low
balls. He has been going behind the bat
for two seasons, and now he Is out of
that. Fifteen years is a long base ball life
for a good player. When Anson began
the popular favorites were Harry and
George Wright, Dickey Pearce, Dave
Force, Joe Start, Jim White, Tip Pike,
Dave Eggler Jack Hatfield and Fer
guson. Arson has seen famous players
like John Burdock, Harry Stovey, the Ir-
win brothers, Comiskey, Pete Brown
ing, Fred Pfeffer, Mike Kelly, Ed. Hanion,
Johnnie Peters and Ed. Williamson come
and go. The only man who has a record
approaching Anson's is Jimmy Calvin the
famous pitcher. He began pitching in St.
Louis in 1869 and occupied the box contin-
uously for more than twenty-five years.
This is a wonderful record, when the av-
erage life OF a pitcher is about five years.
Calvin Is a grandfather.

PITCHING MACHINE A SUCCESS.
Practical Test of Professor Hinton's
Mechanical Twirling Device.

Princeton, N. j., June 13.-Professor
Hinton's patent baseball pitching gun
was a decided success. Eight strike
outs, one base on balls, one wild pitch
and four safe hits is his record IT, three
innings today in the first fair test Of
the machine S practicability in an aC-
Iual game. Mines representing the Ivy
club and Tiger Inn, two of Princeton's
social clubs, played a match game, us
ing the gun to pitch for both teams,
and the contest attracted a large
crowd of interested spectators, promin-
ent among whom were Mrs. Cleveland
and a UaIty of friends and many
rinceton professors, who came to see
with what success Professor Hinton's
invention would meet.
The gun is discharged by the bats
man, who, when ready for the ball to
he delivered, steps upon an electrical
intcrcepting plate, connected by wires
with the trigger of the cannon. The
speed with which the ball is thrown is
regulated by compressed air, and
pronglike projectors from the can
mons mouth impart a rotary motion
to the sphere when discharged, pro-
ducinG a curve in any direction, accord
ing as the position Of the projecting
prongs are changed.
There is but one serious defect in
the operation of the machine that will
prevent its use in games, and that is
the long time required for reloading.
This was especially noticeable in the
game bee e the lntercepting rlate
was out Of order. and the frequent de-
lays thereby necessitated did not allow
the game to be finished. Only three
innings were played.
During the first inning the batsmen
were timid at standing near the plate
and the big out curves caused them 10
jump back, but as the gun threw
strikes in every instance they plucked
up courage. stood closer to the plate
and succeeded occasionally in making
safe hits. The game was uninteresting
excepting for the novelty of seeing the
pitchers box occupied by a machine.
The Ivy club won by score of Z to g.

st. Thomas College Team Sustains
Its First Defeat.

The Lackawannas and st. Thomas
college teams played a very interest
Ing game at Athletic park Saturday
afternoon, before large audience con-
sidering 1t was an amateur game, about
six hundred people witnessed the con-
test, about two hundred of these being
ladies. For the first three innings the
Lackawannas played very loose in the
field, allowing the boys from the col
lege to score three runs, on one scratch
hit, but after that they settled down
to business and the st. Thomas ag-
gregation were never in the game.
The star plays of the game were
made by Golden Sweeney, Finnerty
and Mclaughlin. Ruane pitched a re-
markable game, only one clean hit be-
ing made from his delivery. Griffin
pitched good game considering it is
his first year out; if the boy takes care
of himself he is a sure conner. Score.

The ripper" bill is almost certain to
be defeated.
The matter of the extension of the
session will be settled when Senator
Quay comes to Harrisburg and has had
conference with the leaders of the
house and senate and Governor Hast

WALLER'S OPINION.
The Result OF the Wintersteen Trial
Not Unexpected.

Bloomsbury, June 13.-Mr L. E. Wal
Ter, whose house was wrecked by dy-
Mantle and for which crime the trial of
Lawyer Wintersteen last night ended
in jury disagreement said today that
the result of the trial was what he had
anticipated since the case begun. He
said as the jury stood eight to four for
conviction and the jurors were not un-
der guard, and were allowed to return
to their homes twice while the case was
in progress, was reason enough for the
commonwealth to demand a second
trial.
Mr.. Wintersteen, the defendant, act
ing under the advice of his counsel, will
not discuss the case.

Strikers Close a Mill.

Reading. Pa, June 1S.-The manage
ment of the Reading Iron works last
night decided to close its tube mill
indefinitely. BY this over 1000 hands
will be thrown out of employment.
The cause of the shutting is that the
men in the other departments, upon
which the tube mill is dependent for
iron, are on strike and the supply has
run out.
