MURDER In SECOND DEGREE.
DIR. Jefferson ID. Goddard Convicted of
Shooting Fred j. Jackson.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Dec. 4.-Murder in
the second degree was the verdict returned
at late hour tonight in the case of DR.
Jefferson d. Goddard. the druggist, who
shot and killed Fred J. Jackson, a laundry
man, in the apartments of Jackson's wife
at the Woodland Hotel. The case was given
to the jury at 1 o'clock this afternoon. The
verdict of the jury fixes the penalty at
sixteen years in the state penitentiary.
The case has been sensational from the
first. The tragedy developed the fact that
Mrs. Jackson, who is wealthy, having ac-
qutred all the property of her husband be-
fore his death, set Goddard up in the drug
business and the dead mans relatives
charged conspiracy between the wife and
Goddard to put jackson out of the way.
When DR.. Goddard was first tried for the
crime a further sensation was created by
the action of Mrs. Jackson and the three
young daughters of the murdered man.
Trey took the part of the accused drug
gist, whose plea was self-defense, and went
TO extreme measures to defend him. The
first trial, which resulted in q hung jury,
provoked suspicious of Jury-bribing. The
beginning of the second trial was followed
by the sensational arrest of two local poll
tcians, one IL former justice of the peace,
for attempting to bride jurors. These
charges are still pending

knees. He glanced around. About the time
he thought he recognized one of his assai-
ants another stone struck him in the head.
Thrush fell to the pavement in an uncon-
scious condition. He was discovered by a
young man, who summoned help and con-
veyed him to physicians Office near by.
